    SEBTS Chapel - John William Eddins, Jr. July 29, 1980
    Description:
    • John William Eddins, Jr. was Professor of Theology. The service opens with a word of prayer (00:00-01:07). Eddins leads the audience in a responsive reading and a time of prayer requests (01:08-05:30). He reads from Galatians 2:11-21 (05:31-08:00). Eddins begins his sermon by comparing Paul’s religious transformation to the restoration of the gospel message in the Protestant Reformation (08:01-10:10). He argues that Paul found problems with legalism and antinomianism, and he saw the gospel of righteousness through Christ as the great third option (10:11-13:04). Eddins first question is have we been crucified with Christ, and he says we exchange our obligations with freedom (13:05-16:12). The second question is does Christ live in us, and Eddins says if we love the way Christ loves us, he lives in us (16:13-19:45). The third question is do we live by faith in the Son of God, and Eddins says the answer is if we live by faith, we do not depend upon ourselves for salvation (19:46-21:15). Eddins concludes by stating only the only way to salvation is the way of dependence on Christ’s righteousness (21:16-24:36). Eddins ends the service with a benediction (24:37-25:04).
