SEBTS Spring Lecture - Peter Rhea Jones March 19, 1980

Description
  • Peter Rhea Jones was pastor of the First Baptist Church in Decatur, GA. The service begins with a word of prayer (00:00-01:39). Peter Rhea Jones is introduced as the Spring Lecturer (01:40-02:40). Jones begins his lecture by thanking Southeastern for their hospitality (02:41-03:38). He examines aspects of interpreting the parables of Luke 15 (03:39-12:38). Jones first examines the Parable of the Lost Sheep, and he connects the joy of the shepherd to the redemptive joy that Christ has for those he saves (12:39-15:53). Second, he examines the Parable of the Lost Coin, and he believes that the parable exemplifies the love of God for lost sinners (15:53-21:28). Third, Jones examines the Parable of the Lost Son, and he brings out a theme of comparativeness (21:29-38:51). He concludes his lecture by stating that the uniting theme of the parables is the nature of repentance (38:52-51:32). The service ends with a word of prayer (51:33-53:08).
