This short book is a careful study of the profound and rich tenth chapter of the Gospel of John. A masterful exposition, it combines the elements of instruction, devotion, comfort, exhortation and controversy. Glorious Christian doctrines (with which the chapter is filled) are clearly and winsomely explained and applied—incarnation, atonement, predestination, the eternal Godhead of Jesus and more. Common misunderstandings are cleared up, e.g., that the shepherd of verse 2 is Jesus Himself. Sharp warning is directed against threats to the church in the present day particularly the presence of pastors and “evangelists” who refuse to enter the sheepfold by the door and who are mere hirelings.

4 sermons on John 3:1-13 on CD

Originally preached in 2003, these sermons have now been produced on CD and put together in a box set. The material includes a critique of the teachings of Billy Graham, John Wesley and modern evangelicalism regarding the new birth.

Canons of Dordt III/IV:12: “And this is the regeneration so highly celebrated in Scripture, and denominated a new creation: a resurrection from the dead, a making alive, which God works in us without our aid. But this is in no wise effected merely by the external preaching of the gospel, by moral suasion, or such a mode of operation, that after God has performed his part, it still remains in the power of man to be regenerated or not, to be converted, or to continue unconverted; but it is evidently a supernatural work, most powerful, and at the same time most delightful, astonishing, mysterious, and ineffable; not inferior in efficacy to creation, or the resurrection from the dead …”
