In The Beginning God Created
The first verse of the Bible exposes the fallacy of many popular notions—Eternity Of Matter, Biological Evolution, Atheism, Polytheism, Pantheism. It also sets out the boundary around which all creation is subject, that of a time continuum. God accomplished five things on the first day of creation—time, universe, angels, globe and shining light. These matters are examined in this study.

40 Bible Doctrine – Gill’s ‘Body Of Divinity’ And The Table Of Contents
I would like to welcome you back to another study in Bible Doctrine. We are looking in this study, at the table of contents belonging to John Gill’s ‘Body of Divinity’. Allow me to introduce the subject by referring you to the passage of Scripture read at the opening of our worship hour. When the Apostle Paul called together the gospel preachers who were ministering at Ephesus, it was the last time he would see them face to face, and therefore he took opportunity to give some apostolic instructions and pastoral counsels to the men. By way of example, and for the purpose of encouragement, he told them in...

Gill’s “Body Of Divinity” And The Table Of Contents
A grounding in the faith, requiring a knowledge and understanding of the whole counsel of God, should be the desire and aim of every regenerate sinner. Before going into the details of John Gill’s Body of Divinity, it is helpful to gain an overview of the branches and stems of systematic theology. This is easily accomplished by examining the table of contents annexed to Gill’s Divinity.

The Generations Of The Human Race
"These are the generations of...". Eleven times this expression occurs in the book of Genesis, indicating its main structure and focal point. When reading through the book, attention should be given to the men and women whose lives and testimonies are recorded for our learning, that through patience and comfort of the Scriptures we might have hope.

39 Bible Doctrine – The Key To Unlocking John Gill’s ‘Body Of Divinity’
I would like to welcome you back to another study in Bible Doctrine. In our previous studies, I have introduced the life, legacy and writings of John Gill. Out of the twenty-five works highlighted, there are four which I have recommended every Christian should own and read: 1. “The Cause of God and Truth” (1735-38) 2. “An Exposition of the Old and New Testaments” (1746-48; 1763-66) 3. “Goat Yard Declaration of Faith” (1729) 4. “A Body of Doctrinal and Practical Divinity” (1769-70) Having given some background, explanations and samples of the first three works, I now come to the last—A Body of Doctrinal and Practical Divinity. Another term for ‘body’ is system, and another term for ‘divinity’ is theology. Henceforth, this is John Gill’s System…

The Key To Unlocking John Gill’s “Body Of Doctrinal And Practical Divinity”
John Gill understood the Sublapsarian view on the logical order of God's decree to fit within the Supralapsarian view, thereby subscribing to both positions. This scheme of teaching is diagramed in the "Framework of Sovereign Grace", which serves as the key to unlocking Gill's "Body of Doctrinal and Practical Divinity" (Systematic Theology). Although Gill himself never diagramed his framework of teachings, it was a method used by William Perkins (a Supralapsarian) and by John Bunyan (a Sublapsarian) during the 16th and 17th centuries. The "Framework of Sovereign Grace" is a diagram drawn up by Jared Smith in 2012, incidentally but conveniently aligned with the teachings of John Gill.
