Has God chosen some to go to heaven and some to go to hell before they were even born? The Rev. Dr. Joel Lehenbauer (Executive Director, LCMS Commission on Theology and Church Relations) joins Andy and Sarah to talk about the "crux theologorum" or main theological question of "why some and not others" in the doctrine of election, including what Scripture says about election, the historic Lutheran teaching on election, what other denominations believe about election or predestination, and how the doctrine of election is really about the hope we have in Christ.Resources:"Walther’s Works: Predestination" (CPH)"Bondage of the Will" by Martin Luther"Bound Choice" by Robert KolbFormula of Concord: Article XI As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
