What happens when two theological giants who love Jesus have a FIERY public fallout?

Passage: 1 If anyone sins and commits a breach of faith against the Lord by deceiving his neighbor in a matter of deposit or security, or through robbery, or if he has oppressed his neighbor 2 or has found something lost and lied about it, swearing falsely—in any of all the things that people do and sin thereby— 3 then if he has sinned and has realized his guilt and will restore what he took by robbery or what he got by oppression or the deposit that was committed to him or the lost thing that he found, 4 or anything about which he has sworn falsely, he shall restore it in full and shall add a fifth to it, and give it to him to whom it belongs on the day he realizes his guilt. 5 And he shall bring to the priest as his compensation to the Lord a ram without blemish out of the flock, or its equivalent, for a guilt offering. 6 And the priest shall make atonement for him before the Lord, and he shall be forgiven for any of the things that one may do and thereby become guilty. (Leviticus 6:1-6) Song: Song of Repentance by Esther-Jane White, Lauren Harris, Mark Vallance, Nick Herbert Lyrics: We've fallen short We've wandered far from Your ways Forgive us O Lord We've sinned against Your name Lord have mercy Christ have mercy This is a song of repentance This is a plea to Your heart Would You purify us Lord Open Your hand to deliver Reach down in power to save You are Holy God God keep us close Held in Your promise of grace Come change our hearts Restore who we are we pray Now Almighty One All-consuming love Lord remember us Make us holy For the sake of Christ We lay down our lives O now Church arise For His glory This is a song of revival Let holiness flood through this land Would You purify us Lord Would You purify us Lord Prayer: O most great, most just and gracious God, you are of purer eyes than to behold iniquity; but you have promised mercy through Jesus Christ to all who repent and believe in him. We confess that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God. We have neglected and abused your holy worship, your holy name, and your holy day. We have dealt unjustly and uncharitably with our neighbors, not loving them as ourselves, nor doing to others as we would that they should do to us. We have not sought first your kingdom and righteousness, and have been overly anxious about the things of this life. You have revealed your wonderful love to us in Christ, and offered us pardon and salvation in him; but we have turned away. We have run into temptations and the sin we should have hated we have committed. Have mercy on us, most merciful Father! In your Son is our salvation, in your promises our hope. Take us for your children and give us the Spirit of your Son. Amen. — Richard Baxter

The Voice, The Tongue & The Airway with Jessica LuffeyIn this fascinating episode, I sit down with Jessica Luffey (CSOM, MM)—a Certified Specialist in Orofacial Myology and professional operatic soprano—to explore the profound connection between vocal performance, orofacial myology, and airway health.Raised in a dental family and trained in elite vocal performance, Jessica has pioneered groundbreaking insights into how tongue ties, craniofacial function, and myofunctional therapy impact singers at the highest level. With extensive training under experts like Dr. Soroush Zaghi and Dr. Richard Baxter, her work has transformed the way vocalists—from Grammy-winning artists to opera stars—understand and optimize their instrument: the body.

Dr. Jordan Hubbard has always had a passion for the human body, how it works, and the physiology of how it is regulated. In high school, she found her passion for dentistry. She graduated from the University of North Carolina Wilmington's Honors College with a BS in biology and minor in psychology in 2013. She went on to graduate from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry in 2017 and was awarded the AGD Excellence Award signifying she showed the highest excellence in general dentistry in her class. She also graduated with the ASDA Certificate of Excellence Award, received a Deans Circle Scholarship, and took additional courses to get her Certificate in Forensic Odontology. After graduation, she worked as an associate while taking continuing education courses in implantology, pediatric dentistry, and cosmetic dentistry. Once she purchased her practice in 2020, and had children of her own, she became fascinated with infant frenectomies and airway dentistry. She has spent the last 3 years studying her craft, and has taken courses from leading experts in the field including Dr. Richard Baxter, Dr. Soroush Zaghi, Dr. Jared Poplin, and Dr. Erin Elliot. In her free time, she enjoys giving back, and found a way to do so with the Mommy Dentists in Business. As the regional leader for MDIB of the Carolinas, Dr. Hubbard enjoys planning events and meet-ups for women in her area to have fun, talk dentistry, and provide mentorship and support for each other. She is also active in her local study clubs, is the Vice President of the North Carolina Chapter of the American Association of Women Dentists, and is the owner of her practice, Hubbard Dental, in Pinehurst North Carolina. Dr. Hubbard has 3 young boys, and is married to her husband of 8 years.

Richard Baxter was a Puritan who lived in England and we go through some of his marital advice. It may be more spicy than you'd expect!

Passage: 41 Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question, 42 saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “The son of David.” 43 He said to them, “How is it then that David, in the Spirit, calls him Lord, saying, 44 ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I put your enemies under your feet”'? 45 If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?” 46 And no one was able to answer him a word, nor from that day did anyone dare to ask him any more questions. (Matthew 22:41-46 ESV) Song: Behold Him (https://open.spotify.com/track/2fLL14p6GhHzx7pyU0I2zQ?si=ef02e885557a454d) by Mitch Wong, Paul Baloche Lyrics: He who was before there was light Walked across the pages of time He who made every living thing Behold Him He who heard humanity's cry Left His throne to wake as a child He became like the least of us Behold Him Jesus Son of God Messiah The Lamb the roaring Lion Oh be still and behold Him He who dined with sinners and saints Healed the blind the lost and the lame Even now He is in our midst Behold Him He who chose a criminal's end Paid with blood to settle our debt Buried death as He rose to life Behold Him Jesus Son of God Messiah The Lamb the roaring Lion Oh be still and behold Him Jesus Alpha and Omega Our God the risen Savior Oh be still and behold Him Holy holy holy Is the Lord God Almighty Worthy worthy worthy To receive all praise Prayer: We praise and glorify you, our Lord and owner, for we and all things are your own. We praise and glorify you, our king and ruler, for we are your subjects, and our perfect obedience is your due. Just are all your laws and judgment; true and sure is all your Word. We praise and glorify you, our great benefactor. In you we live, and move, and are: all that we are, or have, or can do, is wholly from you, the cause of all; and all is for you, for you are our end. Delightfully to love you is our greatest duty, and our only felicity, for you are love itself, and infinitely amiable. Amen. -Richard Baxter

"Never man was highlier extolled, and never man baselier reported of and vilified” write Richard Baxter - a contemporary of Oliver Cromwell, who was not a fan. In this he was closer to the truth than Samuel Johnson, who wearily wrote in the 18th century that "all that can be told of him is already in print.” Cromwell is makes a subject extraordinarily divisive, and extraordinarily rich, partly because, as some other clever person remarked, people find in him what they are looking for.

On this episode we begin a little spinoff project in which Jonathan audio narrates lectures from oft forgotten American Presbyterian theologian, James Richards. Specifically his Lectures on Mental Philosophy & Theology which can be found here: https://archive.org/details/lecturesonmental00rich Today we present lecture 13: On the Extent of the Atonement, in which Richards sets forth a view quite similar to that of English Hypothetical Universalism found in theologians like John Davenant, James Ussher, and Richard Baxter.

No doubt there are many great spiritual devotionals out there that help us grow in our relationship to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I've read a good number of them. But the devotional that is recommended in this video, unlike any other I've ever seen, truly teaches us and richly enhances our prayer and meditation times unlike any other I've ever seen. If you want to learn how to pray, meditate, and learn how to grow in the faith, this devotional is for you. It is a collection of Puritan prayers by faithful men of the past, such as Richard Baxter, Thomas Watson, David Brainerd, Charles Spurgeon, among many others. This episode of 2Days Denarius takes an educational and teaching approach to a devotional published by Banner of Truth Trust titled "The Valley of Vision." It is available through banneroftruth.org. 2Days Denarius is an evangelical Christian ministry which fully supports the inerrancy, infallibility and authority of Scripture as our only rule of faith and practice. It also follows the tenets of the London Baptist Confession of 1689 and the Westminster Confession of 1647. 2Days Denarius may be found on YouTube at www.youtube.com/@2daysd. It can also be reached at 2daysdenarius@gmail.com. Theme song "Most of Our Time" is used by permission of songwriter and artist Pastor Steve Hereford of the Changed By Grace Church in Jacksonville, FL.

Susanna Annesley was born on January 20, 1669 and was the youngest of her 25 siblings! Her father was the Rev. Dr. Samuel Annesley and was later referred to as the St. Paul of the Nonconformists who stood against the unbiblical practices of slumbering national church.[1] To give you some sense of the kind of Christian home Susanna was born into, the Annesley home was visited by some of the spiritual giants of their day, such as Richard Baxter, John Owen, and Thomas Manton. Susanna said of her childhood: I will tell you what rule I observed when I was young and too much addicted to childish diversions, which was this never to spend more time in mere recreation in one day than I spent in private religious devotions.[2] It has been said of Susanna that her knowledge of the Bible was superior to that of many of the pastors of her day and her love for and devotion to God was reflected in her time in the Bible and prayer. On November 12, 1688, Susanna married Samuel Wesley who had become an Anglican priest. Together the Wesleys had at least 17 children (some believe they had 19 children), and of those children, only 10 survived infancy; one child was crippled, and another did not learn to speak until he was six years old. If 10 mouths to feed and children to clothe was not enough for both parents, Samuel Wesley was a poor steward and manager of money, not a very good husband to Susanna, and was frequently away from home for long periods. I read that during her lifetime as both a mother and a wife, Susanna was sick often, there was little money for food, and debt plagued their family and household because of Samuels poor management of money. Samuel was once thrown into debtors prison because their debt was so high. Twice the homes they lived in throughout their marriage were destroyed by fire along with much of what they owned. Someone slit their cows udders so they wouldnt have milk, killed their dog, and burned their flax field.[3] Susanna had little time between her duties as a mother, the need to work their gardens, milk their cows, educate their children, and manage their home, all with little help. However, she managed to spend about two hours a day praying because she believed in the God of Ephesians 3:20-21. Because it was nearly impossible to find a quiet place to pray, she used her apron and told her children that when they saw her head covered with her apron, they were not permitted to disturb her because she was praying. Of Samuel and Susannas ten surviving children, God would use John and Charles profoundly to reach the lost and impact the world they lived inmostly due to the foundation of the Word of God laid by their mother and the prayers prayed on their behalf. John Wesley would grow to become a great evangelist whom God used to preach to nearly one million people in his lifetime. Charles would be used by God to write over 9,000 hymns, of which many are still sung in our churches today.[4] One of those hymns is a favorite of mine: And Can It Be, That I Should Gain. Consider three of its five verses: And can it be that I should gainAn interest in the Savior's bloodDied He for me, who caused His painFor me, who Him to death pursued?Amazing love! How can it beThat Thou, my God, should die for me? He left His Father's throne aboveSo free, so infinite His graceEmptied Himself of all but loveAnd bled for Adam's helpless raceTic mercy all, immense and freeFor O my God, it found out me!Amazing love! How can it be, That Thou, my God, should die for me? No condemnation now I dreadJesus, and all in Him, is mineAlive in Him, my living HeadAnd clothed in righteousness divineBold I approach the eternal throneAnd claim the crown, through Christ my ownAmazing love! How can it beThat Thou my God, should die for me? Now, like a well-aged, perfectly seasoned steak cooked by a master chef, Ephesians 3:20-21 is before us, and every bit of these two verses is meant to be savored. So, lets savor one of the great doxological statements in the Bible: Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen. This statement in Ephesians 3:20-21 is in response to what God has done, is doing, and will continue to do in the life of the one He has chosen, redeemed, and secured as His child. Paul has brought us to the threshold of where our understanding and imagination can go, that we who were once dead in our offences and sins (2:1), can know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that we may be filled to all the fullness of God (3:19). In his sermon on this same passage, James Montgomery Boice wrote in response: This is beyond comprehension; we cannot even begin to imagine how we can be filled with Gods own fullness. We stand on the edge of the infinite. And yet, Paul is still not satisfied. He has prayed that God will do something we cannot even imagine; and now, having exhausted his ability to speak and write along that line, he bursts out in praise to God who, he says, is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us (v. 20).[5] So, what are these verses teaching us? What hope do they provide you? I believe that the answer is profound yet simple. God is Working All Things Out for Our Good How is God working all things out for our good and how do we know He is working all things out for our good? Well, let me begin by answering how we know that He is working all things out for our good. For starters, our God can work all things out for our good! Paul begins verse 20 with six simple words: Now to Him who is able. God is able because He is not an idol. The Greek word used for do is poieō, which means to do, make, cause, or appoint. In other words, God is not like the stuff or gods that people worship; He can do what they cannot! He is not made with hands or created through any persons imagination. He is God! The God who is able is He who declares of Himself: Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not been done, saying, My plan will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure; calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of My purpose from a distant country. Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass. I have planned it, I will certainly do it. Listen to Me, you stubborn-minded, who are far from righteousness. I bring near My righteousness, it is not far off; and My salvation will not delay. And I will grant salvation in Zion, and My glory for Israel. (Isaiah 46:913) God alone is able to choose, redeem, and keep any He wills for the purpose of lavishing His rich mercy, great love, and all-sufficient grace upon any that He grants salvation. God chooses, redeems, and keeps because He will accomplish all His good pleasure (Isa. 46:10b). Because God is able, He can do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think. God is not like the compromising parent in the grocery store that will offer or give whatever the child wants just so he/she can get the child to shut up. God gives His children what is good for them and what they need. Sometimes what we want lines up with what He knows that we need, but there are times that what we are convinced we need is not what we need at all because it ultimately may not even be good for us. However, if we are surrendering ourselves to Gods will (vv. 14-15), if we are desiring a dependance upon the Holy Spirit (vv. 16-17a), and we are walking in union with Christ (vv. 17-19), then what you think you need will begin to line up with what God knows you need. That is not all though, for the thing you do not know you need to ask for, God knows, and He is, able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think Listen, when your thinking begins to line up with the heart of what God wants for you, you will find yourself asking for the very thing God desires for you. This is what Jesus said would happen if you abide (remain) in Him: If you remain in Me, and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you (John 15:7). When you surrender to the will of God, when you are depending on the promised Holy Spirit to guide you, and when you are taking in the life of Jesus so that His life will be reflected through your life, what you ask or wish for will begin to line up with what God knows you really need, and what you need most is the thing that God has called you into. The power that is working within us, is what made your salvation, redemption, and regeneration possible. It is the power of the Holy Spirit who provides a resurrecting and miracle working power that Jesus promised to each of His follower. Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit will be our Helper who will be with His people forever (John 14:16-31), will guide His people into all truth (16:5-15), and will empower His people to accomplish Christs mission to redeem the nations (Acts 1:8). The power that was responsible for the creation of the universe and resurrection of Jesus is the same power the indwells every true follower of Jesus to live and walk in the good works God prepared beforehand for His people to walk in (Eph. 2:10). God is Working All Things Out for His Glory Why is God working all things out for our good? Why did He choose you? Why did He redeem you through the blood of the Lamb? Why did He seal and empower you to live a life that honors Him? The answer is in the first five words of verse 21, To Him be the glory. The prophet Isaiah said of the glory of God: For My own sake, for My own sake, I will act; for how can My name be profaned? And I will not give My glory to another (Isa. 48:11). In Romans 11:36, Gods glory is described in His worth: For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who became His counselor? Or Who has first given to Him, that it would be paid back to him? For from Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen (Rom. 11:3436). So, to Him be the glory in what or who, Paul? His answer is three-fold: in the church, in Christ Jesus, and to all generations forever and ever. Why on earth would we think that God would want to do anything through us? Because He is for His glory, and because He is for His glory, He is for your good. What is your good Christian? Your good is that you get God! The greatest and most loving thing God can give you is Himself! For from the rising of the sun even to its setting, My name shall be great among the nations, and in every place frankincense is going to be offered to My name, and a grain offering that is pure; for My name shall be great among the nations, says the Lord of armies. (Mal. 1:11) I, I alone, am the one who wipes out your wrongdoings for My own sake, and I will not remember your sins. (Isa. 43:25) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. In love He predestined us to adoption as sons and daughters through Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, with which He favored us in the Beloved. (Eph. 1:36) In light of all that we have discovered and been reminded of throughout our time in Ephesians, maybe you have asked the question: Did God go too far? Did God go too far by choosing me of all people before the foundation of the world (Eph. 1:4)? Is God the victim of a poor investment because he chose me before the foundation of the world for good works He prepared beforehand? I dont know if you have ever asked questions like these, but if Ephesians 3:20-21 teaches us anything, it is this: God is not limited because He is infinitely sovereign, and because He is infinitely sovereign, He does not invest poorly. He has redeemed you who were once dead and now has made you alive for His glory and your good! And brothers and sisters, He is doing the same thing all over the world. He is being glorified in the Church by what He is doing in the Church and through the Church. He is glorified in and through the redemptive work of Christ who made our salvation possible! He is being glorified and forever will be glorified because of Who He Is! God is He who, is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us for His glory and our good! The more of Him you discover, the more you will trust Him to do what He alone is able to do in His time and according to His good will. I heard someone say it this way: The deeper our understanding of God goes, the more childlike our faith will become. I heard a song written by people I never heard before titled, Christ be All. I must have listened to it a dozen times or more this week because it is so good! There are two verses from that song I believe serve as a suitable way to conclude this sermon; I believe it echoes the spirit of Susanna Wesley and the longing of each of us in this room: How great is God?His grandeur endlessHow frail I come before His throneI am lost in love relentlessThat Christ be all, and I his own May Christ be all, and I be nothingHis glory shines in vessels weakMay Christ be all, and I be nothingThis is my hopeNot I, but Christ in me On golden shores of sure salvationI will run to meet my KingFree from shame and all accusationHe'll give HimselfNothing I'll bringHe'll give HimselfNothing I'll bring [1] Arthur Dicken Thomas, Jr., Knowing Doing: Profiles in Faith (C.S.

Paul begins verse 20 with six simple words: Now to Him who is able. God is able because He is not an idol. The Greek word used for do is poieō, which means to do, make, cause, or appoint. In other words, God is not like the stuff or gods that people worship; He can do what they cannot! He is not made with hands or created through any persons imagination. He is God! The God who is able is He who declares of Himself: Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have not been done, saying, My plan will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure; calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of My purpose from a distant country. Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass. I have planned it, I will certainly do it. Listen to Me, you stubborn-minded, who are far from righteousness. I bring near My righteousness, it is not far off; and My salvation will not delay. And I will grant salvation in Zion, and My glory for Israel.

Dr. Richard Baxter is a previous guest on the podcast. He is a young pediatric dentist leading the charge to educate and bring awareness to the tethered-oral-tissue movement. He is the author of the best-selling book Tongue Tied, founder of the Alabama Tongue-Tie Center, and prominent speaker. He has performed over 10,000 lip and tongue ties in his career. On today's episode, we talk about when it makes sense to scale your practice and expand to create a stand-alone tongue and lip-tie clinic. Richard reviews the business side of the discussion, what the physical space should like look, and when you have sufficient patient-demand to make it feasible. We also spend a little time talking about local anesthesia with a Light Scalpel, and how to release the infamous posterior tongue-tie. You can find Dr. Baxter's book "Tongue Tied" on Amazon. He also created and teaches the virtual Tongue-Tied Academy Program, and he's giving Brews and Tiny Teeth listeners a $400 discount with a promo code he announces at the end of the podcast.

  In this episode Dr Clark turns to Romans 9:25–33 as Paul answers the question: why is it that not many Jews have put their trust in Jesus the Messiah? He answers a text asking whether laity should read texts from problematic authors (e.g., N. T. Wright, Richard Baxter et al.)? He answers a call from David asking about which churches confess the Scots and French confessions. He answers a question from Peter about what Ursinus means by "improperly" and an email from Chris about recommended editions of the Westminster Standards. The opening audio comes from the Sub Beacon podcast. This episode of the Heidelcast is sponsored by the Heidelberg Reformation Association. You love the Heidelcast and the Heidelblog.
