Now available! My newest book on the ordo salutis, the order of salvation. Join me as I delve into the doctrine of soteriology and how the Sovereign Savior applies salvation to his elect. Examine the important doctrines of election, effectual calling, regeneration, conversion, justification, adoption, sanctification, perseverance, and glorification.
The ordo salutis has long been used by theologians as a framework for understanding God’s application of salvation to sinners. Rather than considering the ordo as a sequence of events, it is better to view this as an “orderly” presentation of the relationships between the various aspects of soteriology. ORDO seeks to strengthen love and devotion to our Savior Jesus Christ by deepening our understanding of these vital doctrines.

What does it mean to live in the salvation of Christ?
Living in the salvation of Christ is to have been called by God to faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. To have been justified freely by God’s grace. To now be living in the daily struggle to mortify sin and grow in the sanctification without which no one will see the Lord. To endure until the end of life, holding firm to that original confidence. Indeed, to have come to share in Christ and one day to be received into glory. This is a site to find those truths.
