Some of the points I cover in this teaching video: In an effort to clarify my understanding of the New Covenant, I make a comparison of it with that of the Presbyterians, the traditional Reformed Baptists, the 1689 Federalists and the High-Calvinists. Jared Smith, Muntinlupa, PH (27/01/2023)

13 Israel And The Elect
Some of the points I cover in this teaching video: Having completed my thoughts on the biblical covenants and their arrangement, I set aside the final two studies in this series to deal with the controversial matter of the definition and distinctions between the ELECT, ISRAEL and the CHURCH. For this study, I explain the differences between the ELECT and ISRAEL, an indispensable distinction if one wishes to rightly interpret the scriptures and understand God’s masterplan for the ages.

Are Reformed Baptists And Particular Baptists One And The Same?
