Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary
The Man of God podcast is an incredible source of knowledge and inspiration for all those seeking to grow in their faith and understanding of the Bible. As a listener, I have found this podcast to be an invaluable resource in my spiritual journey. The hosts are knowledgeable, well-spoken, and passionate about sharing biblical truths with their audience. Each episode is thoughtfully crafted and delves into deep theological concepts in a way that is accessible and relatable.
One of the best aspects of The Man of God podcast is the depth of content covered in each episode. Whether it's exploring specific biblical passages, discussing theological doctrines, or addressing cultural issues from a Christian perspective, the hosts are able to provide insightful commentary and practical application for everyday life. They have a knack for breaking down complex ideas into digestible pieces, making it easier for listeners to grasp new concepts and apply them to their own lives.
Additionally, I appreciate the diversity of topics covered on The Man of God podcast. Not only do they tackle theological issues head-on, but they also address matters related to Christian living, discipleship, apologetics, and more. This variety ensures that there is something valuable for everyone who tunes in. It's refreshing to see how seamlessly they weave together different aspects of the Christian faith into one cohesive message.
However, like any podcast or media platform, The Man of God does have its flaws. One aspect that could be improved upon is the consistency of release schedule. While I understand that producing high-quality content takes time and effort, regular episodes would help keep listeners engaged and eagerly anticipating new material. It can be frustrating when there are gaps between releases without any explanation or update from the hosts.
In conclusion, The Man of God podcast is a must-listen for anyone seeking sound biblical teaching coupled with practical applications for daily life. The hosts' passion for Christ shines through in every episode as they guide listeners through scripture with clarity and insight. Although there are minor areas for improvement, the overall value and impact of this podcast make it a valuable resource for anyone on their journey of faith. I highly recommend giving The Man of God a listen and allowing its teachings to enrich your understanding of God's Word.
After nearly 1,000,000 downloads (around 1.5 million, including all channels and video streams), the Man of God Network will undergo significant changes in 2025. In an effort to streamline and improve our podcasting ministries, the Man of God Network, which consists of seven distinct shows, will be consolidated into a single show: The Covenant Podcast by CBTSeminary. Rather than releasing new podcasts daily, we will move toward posting episodes 1-2 times per week with at least one new video per week. The Pastor's Inbox and Particular Pilgrims will remain sub-shows under the newly refreshed Covenant Podcast. This approach will allow for greater focus on producing high-quality content, expanding reach, and better serving our listeners. Although previously posted episodes will remain accessible for archiving and research purposes, the Man of God RSS feed will no longer post new episodes in 2025. So, please subscribe to the Covenant Podcast for new content by CBTSeminary in 2025!

Hyper-Calvinism in English Baptist circles in the 19th century grew and changed in significant ways. But rather than continue on into the 19th century too far, I want to take another approach to complete, for now, our look at hyper-Calvinism in Baptist circles. Let me point you to a 5 volume study entitled “The Strict Baptist Chapels of England.” For more information, visit CBTSeminary.org --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cbtseminary/support
William Gadsby was much more than a preacher to his Manchester congregation. He also wrote for them, which is surprising, given his poor education. He produced hymns for their worship, tracts for the controversies of the day, a magazine to edify them during the month, a catechism for their children, and sermons to read.

"Just over a year after John Gill's death, another man was born who called himself a Strict and Particular Baptist. He stood in the line of those often called hyper-Calvinists. His name was William Gadsby and while he shared the strong Calvinism of Gill, his life circumstances and ministry were considerably different in some ways. If you have heard his name before, it is probably in relation to his well-known hymnal, usually referred to simply as “Gadsby's Hymns”. He was a man of conviction and generosity; a writer and editor; but foremost a fervent and frequent preacher."

"The question some of you may have been waiting to hear addressed is the relationship between John Gill and hyper-Calvinism. Does Gill qualify as such? For some historians and theological writers, to ask the question is to answer it: of course he was. For them, Gill is the arch hyper-Calvinist who espoused damaging errors and practices. Others claim that Gill was simply a Calvinist fully in line with the previous generations of Particular Baptists. And there are many others at various places along the continuum between these two poles."

Today, John Gill is predominantly known for his writings. These amounted to over 10,000 folio pages. A folio was the full sheet of paper, 19 by 24 inches, then used by printers. With this quantity of output, no wonder one man gave Gill the nickname, “Dr. Voluminous”. I'll describe many of his writings in the next few minutes, but what is not usually appreciated is that virtually all of his publications grew out of his pastoral ministry. John Gill was first and foremost a pastor, serving a specific London congregation and from there made connections with other Baptist churches and orthodox Christians. So Gill's primary work was feeding the Word of God to the flock of God where he had been placed. And he did this with tireless diligence. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cbtseminary/support

John Gill Pt.3: Death of Elizabeth Gill | Particular Pilgrims "We learn the most about John and his daughter Elizabeth because when she died at age 12, he preached her funeral sermon. This was printed and he appended a short account of things she told her parents in the days leading up to her death. In the sermon John refers to her as “our dear child”. And at the service he suddenly had to break off his prepared remarks because “my affections will not permit me”. Later, he and his wife collected from memory as best they could what Elizabeth had said and this became “An Account of some Choice Experiences of Elizabeth Gill, who departed this life May 30, 1738.” For more information, visit CBTSeminary.org --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cbtseminary/support

"In the last episode, we learned of John Gill's early years up to the time of his baptism and membership in the Little Meeting at age 19. And as he suspected, his concerns about being asked to preach were immediately confirmed. For on the very day of his reception into membership, he was asked to expound Isaiah 53 in a private home. The next Sunday he was requested to preach, which he did, from 1 Cor. 2:2, “For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified”. Other sermons followed. As Graham Harrison said, “His life's work as a preacher of the gospel had begun."

What advice would you have for someone who wants to be born again? I've been previously assured of my own salvation in a monergistic but ultimately fruitless form of Christianity. About five years ago I was forced to consider and was soon absolutely convinced by the Scriptures I was not at all saved. Since then, I've been striving to enter the narrow gate, through prayer, sometimes fasting, constant scripture study, local church attendance, contacting the broader Church, and reading old Puritan books about my situation. I've been asking God to save me, whatever it takes, give me the Holy Spirit, break me, just don't let me die in this state, however long it takes. I hope he would be pleased to work in me the changed heart and life he is looking for. So all that to say, what is the responsibility of someone who wants to be born again, assuming they're not?
