Welcome to Common Grace Deliberations. 

This is a website, originally set up in 2016, as a means to promote the scriptural truth of sovereign particular grace, and also to facilitate in-depth study of the following topics:
 

(1) “Common Grace” (the teaching that God loves or is favourably disposed toward, not just the elect, but also the reprobate wicked … and that this love or favour (specifically for the reprobate wicked) is shown in 1) His giving them all sorts of earthly good things (rain, sunshine, food, air, friends, family, happiness, etc.), and 2) various providential workings in their hearts and lives, whereby they are restrained from committing certain outward sins and even operate in a functioning society—a society in which they (the reprobate) even look out for and care for each other). [NB. a view which essentially confuses grace and providence])


(2) the “well-meant gospel offer” (British term: “the free offer of the gospel”) (the notion that God, out of a redemptive/salvific love for all men, sends the gospel out to all men with the desire, will, wish, and intention that all who outwardly hear the preaching be blessed by it. [NB. a desire, will, wish or intention that is frustrated or ineffectual, for many reject it and perish in unbelief])


(3) the notion that fallen man is still in (or partially in) the image of God [NB. Whereas man, at the Fall, lost that image—completely!]


(4) “Hypo-Calvinism” (the view that says man is not totally depraved, but partially so—he didn’t die at the Fall, but he would have done, had it not been for God’s intervention; a denial of sovereign, unconditional reprobation [reprobation is conditional]; denial of limited atonement [Jesus died for everyone!]; denial of irresistible grace [for the gospel proclamation, which is itself “grace” is resisted by many])


(5) “Hyper-Calvinism” (the view that says unregenerate men are not under any duty or responsibility to repent and believe in Jesus—only those who have been regenerated or spiritually awakened are commanded to believe and repent; the notion that the gospel is only to be proclaimed to “sensible sinners”)


(6) Arminianism

 

And much more …

 “The glory of God is seen in His almighty, saving grace in Jesus Christ, His purposeful providence involving both the elect and reprobate, and His beautiful simplicity in all His attributes. The truth of sovereign particular grace helps us to grasp the meaning of many passages in Scripture and to honour the non-contradictory God of the Bible” (Rev. Angus Stewart).
