A God In Conflict With Himself
A god in conflict with himself. Such is the god of Robert Gonzales Jr., the editors of the Founders Ministries who commend his article, and indeed, Richard Baxter whose teachings they imbibe.[1] On May 3, 2024, an article written by Gonzales appeared on the Founders Ministries website entitled, “The Saving Design Of God’s Common Grace”. He begins by rightly distinguishing between a saving grace and common grace, but before ending the first paragraph swerves from the truth making shipwreck of the faith. He writes,

The Mosaic Covenant: A Reiteration Of Works, An Administration Of Grace Or A Mixture Of Both?
Peter Masters delivered two lectures on the biblical covenants for the 2016 School of Theology, Metropolitan Tabernacle. He asks the question, Was the Mosaic Covenant a reiteration of the Covenant of Works, an administration of the Covenant of Grace or a mixture of both? He takes the view it is a reiteration of the Covenant of Works. I answer,...

Reformed Baptists Stumbling Over The Teachings Of Keach And Gill
Peter Masters believes Benjamin Keach and John Gill collapsed the Covenant of Redemption into the “conditional” Covenant of Grace, thereby combining the various components of each covenant into one. Samuel Renihan believes Keach rejected the Covenant of Redemption in favor of the “conditional” Covenant of Grace. I have met Reformed Baptists believing one or the other of these views, some of whom say they derive great benefit, especially from the teachings of Gill.

Noah’s Ark And The Flood
We have in this chapter the Lord instructing Noah to make final preparations for entering the ark, as the rains will begin to fall after seven days. Noah with his family obey the Lord, and on the seventh day are shut into the ark by God. After forty days and forty nights of rain, the waters fill the earth covering the highest mountains. The waters remain upon the earth for one hundred and fifty days (five months), during which time the ark (without rudder, sail or anchor) aimlessly floats upon the waves. The ark is an emblem of the several refuges God prepares for His people. (1) The family unit is a refuge to children; (2) The circle of Christian friends is a refuge to…

Noah Found Grace In The Eyes Of The Lord
We have in this chapter the Lord's assessment of the wickedness of the human race, together with His pronouncement of judgment. The life and testimony of Noah is singled out as an instance of God's saving grace. Noah was a just man (freely justified by the redemption that is in Christ Jesus); perfect in his generations (living godly in Christ Jesus in the midst of a crooked society); walking with God (enjoying blessed fellowship and communion with the Lord); obedient to the Lord (following the Lord's instructions, even when the adverse circumstances make no sense).

A Catalogue Of Ten Generations
We have in this chapter a catalogue of ten generations, represented by one man per generation, covering a total period of 1,656 years. All ten men were the ancestors of the Messiah. Among them are Jared, the second oldest man in history and father of Enoch; Methuselah, the oldest man in history and son of Enoch; Enoch, the man who lived the shortest time in his generations and did not see death, for God took him immediately to heaven. Although Noah is introduced at the end of the chapter, Enoch is the man who is given prominence, he being a regenerate sinner, walking with the Lord and preaching the gospel of Christ.
