In this breakout session from TGC's 2023 conference, Scott Swain demonstrates how understanding the Trinity equips us to grasp the biblical themes of salvation, particularly in the context of Exodus. He argues that the Trinity is central to God's self-revelation and covenant relationship with Israel, tracing promises from Abraham through to the Exodus. Swain also highlights the presence and role of the Holy Spirit in both the Old and New Testaments, linking the first Exodus to the hope of a second, the fulfillment of salvation in Christ. Swain connects the concept of the Trinity to themes of covenant, redemption, and the mystery of marriage, illustrating how these aspects unite creation, salvation, and consummation through Christ.

In this episode, Caleb discusses the topic of divine missions with Brandon Smith (PhD, Ridley College) Associate Professor of Theology and Early Christianity at Oklahoma Baptist University. Together they discuss questions like: What are the divine missions? How do the divine missions relate to the divine processions? How do we avoid conflating the inner life of God and the divine economy? How are the divine missions to shape our understanding of the doctrine of salvation and how we share the good news of the gospel with others? How do divine missions relate to the mission of the church today? And more.

In this episode Caleb discusses the trinitarian doctrine of inseparable operation with Tyler Wittman (PhD, University of St. Andrews) assistant professor of theology at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. This doctrine teaches that all three persons of the Trinity are at work in every action outside of the Trinity's life. This conversation explores definitions, scriptural warrant, historical and theological arguments for inseparable operations, as well as the practical implications it has for our understanding of the gospel and salvation.

In this episode Caleb discusses how Scripture speaks of the one divine essence subsisting equally and fully in the persons of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with Glenn Butner (PhD, Marquette University) professor of theology and ethics at Sterling College. Dr. Butner has recently written an extremely helpful book titled Trinitarian Dogmatics: Exploring the Grammar of the Christian Doctrine of God that aims to help Christians speak accurately, faithfully, and biblically about who God is and has revealed himself to be. Glenn's work also stresses how the church as historically spoken of and argued for the triunity of the God of Scripture. This episode will give listeners a taste of what they can expect from Dr. Butner's important work in trinitarian theology and hopefully answer so difficult questions many have surrounding this doctrine.

Modern Christians lack clarity on the fundamental doctrine of their faith: the Trinity. But why is this the case? Dr. Scott Swain suggests the problem lies in the desire for a Christ who fulfills our expectations. We want Jesus to give a solution to the practical problems in out lives. The doctrine of the Trinity seems abstract and detached from our marriages, careers, and mental health. But what if the doctrine of the Trinity exceeds our expectations? What if we desire too little? Getting the Trinity right does more than provide a proper theological answer -- it strikes at the heart of the identity of the God we worship. We believe in one God eternally existent in three equally divine persons. From this central belief flow all other doctrines. A failure to grasp this basic theology leads to many modern errors: social trinitarianism, eternal subordination of the Son, and various forms of modalism. Each of these distortions trickles down into our understanding of gender, human nature, and the meaning of authority. The Trinity reveals to us a God who from eternity past lives in a triune relation of love between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We must gain Trinitarian fluency in order to speak rightly about him because his glory demands precision and careful meditation. The church fathers defended the Trinity because they saw in this vital doctrine the essence of the Christian faith and the revelation of God in Christ. But this doctrine belongs not only to the theologians of the past, but the everyday faithful Christian in the present who desires to know his or her Lord in a deeper way. Check out this episode with Dr. Scott Swain, one of the foremost Trinitarian theologians in the world, and dive in to the mystery and the glory of the doctrine of the Trinity.

Welcome to season 2 of Down Under Theology, a podcast equipping and encouraging Australian Christians to get down and under the theology impacting the life and mission of the church.In episode 25 we examine John's gospel. This fourth gospel is quite different to the other three synoptic gospels - perhaps purposely complementing the others? In this episode, we discuss the reason for John's gospel and its unique contribution to our understanding of Jesus. We talk about the "I AM" statements of Jesus, and other themes like Jesus' signs, eternal life, faith & love. We hope this episode encourages you to read and teach this book faithfully and fruitfully. In Season 2, we'll be going over each book of the Bible, bringing out the big ideas, themes, and implications for the life and mission of the church.Thoughts, questions or feedback?

Good morning, Five Minute Families. It's “big words day” here as we focus on theology for the family. We are going to wow you with spectacularly complex topics and bore you with their explanations. Our words are going to have almost as many syllables as Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, which of course is quite atrocious. Wait right there, mister! We are not going for complex and boring! Five Minute Family is to help families understand God's word and teachings. Yes, that is true. Often we hear big words and concepts and want to know what their meaning, but we may not know how to learn them, let alone teach them to our families. We must realize that things like systematic theology (one of those big words) is not just for pastors. It is for families, too. I have heard about parents putting together in-depth presentations, having their children sit through hour long, or longer, lectures. Is that a reality for most of us? No, I don't think so, though it could be a good thing depending on family members' ages and learning styles. So, that's a big introduction to say that we will try to tackle deeper theological topics and make them easy for families to think about and discuss. Scott Swain states, “theology is wisdom about God and all things in relation to God.” Wow, that can be quite in-depth. So, where do we start? Let's start with the theology of how God makes Himself known to His creation. Revelation is our big concept for today. It's simply how God shows Himself. We like to say that “God likes to show up and show off” and we can see this and discuss this in several ways: His character, His creation, His actions, His words, and His son Character - the amazing creator of the universe is also a loving and caring God who reveals Himself through a personal relationship with the universe. Bob Kellemen loved to say, “Even before God created, He related.” That speaks of the concept we call the trinity: The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (more about those three in a future FMF episode). Within God's character we see that he is able to relate, able to think, able to choose, able to feel, and able to be present in physical form. And as Genesis 1:27 says, we are created in His image. God is not an abstract man-made concept or an impersonal force in the universe we manipulate for our own agenda. We can talk with him, stand in awe, and humble ourselves before Him. Creation - Nature reveals the glory of God. What awestruck wonder is found when we look at the world around us. Take your family for a walk through the woods or visit a zoo. The variety of plants, trees, bushes, flowers, and even what we would call weeds are amazing in their differences. Animals from the sky to the seas and on lands and rivers, birds, bears and bees, oh wow! Psalm 19:1-2 says “The heavens declare the glory of God and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech and night to night reveals knowledge.” Actions - Just like Psalm 19 talked about the day and night, we see evidence of God designing events to show His nature - from the changing of seasons within the year to specific actions like “the flood,” the “exodus,” the “crucifixion” and many other real historical events. These point to God's story throughout history allowing us to see Him show up and show off. Words - God's words - collected together in what we call the Bible or Scripture - were written by men, 40 diverse personalities and styles. And, not just a dictation of what God was saying, but rather an inspiration to His truths, an amazing message that in itself can be labeled an intentional creation. 2 Timothy 3:16 tells us that “all Scripture is breathed out by God.” The Bible is not a text book with chapters or topical studies, and yet it still captures everything God intended for us to know. It is the source that we study for our theology. It is our privilege to search the depths of Scripture and share them with our families. Jesus Christ - He is the...

Jim Cassidy reviews Scott Swain, The Trinity: An Introduction (Crossway) From the publisher: The Trinity is one of the most essential doctrines of the Christian faith. The eternal God existing as three distinct persons—Father, Son, and Spirit—can be difficult to comprehend. While Christians often struggle to find the right words to describe this union, the Bible gives clarity concerning the triune God’s being and activity in nature (creation), grace (redemption), and glory (reward). In this concise volume, theologian Scott Swain examines the doctrine of the Trinity, presenting its biblical foundations, systematic-theological structure, and practical relevance for the church today. Scott R. Swain (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) serves as president and James Woodrow Hassell Professor of Systematic Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida. He is the author or editor of several books, including The God of the Gospel and Retrieving Eternal Generation. Scott and his wife, Leigh, reside in Orlando, Florida, with their four children.

Therefore, guests' views do not always reflect the views of the host, his church, or his institution.
Since we all have thoughts about God, we are all – to some extent – thinking theologically. As RC Sproul famously said, “The issue for Christians is not whether we are going to be theologians but whether we are going to be good theologians or bad ones.”On this episode of the Reasonable Theology podcast, our guest Dr. Scott Swain provides guidance on how we can strive to be good theologians.View the Show Notes for this episodeSupport the show (https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/reasonabletheology)
Reformed and catholic - how so?No better place to meet Scott Swain for this conversation than Disney's castle in Orlando. He usually finds inspiration there for his theological writing - I bet you didn't know that!Scott makes the remarkable claim that in order to be truly protestant, we have to be good catholics in some sense. But don't get worked up!He talks doctrinal development and Sola Scriptura, Augustine's understanding of faith and reason, Thomas Aquinas' view of the role and the relationship between theology and philosophy, and when the Protestant theological method of interpretation became distinct from the Catholic method.Can or should Protestants still be drawing from Aquinas? How has this Roman Catholic theologian and philosopher influenced even our Reformed confession of faith? You might be surprised to learn the practical implications of it all in the private and communal life of Christians and in discipleship. So join us!Also, Baker Academic has gifted some copies of Reformed Catholicity and we're giving them away.

This week on Theology on the Go, our host, Dr. Jonathan Master is joined by Dr. Scott Swain. Dr. Swain is Professor of Systematic Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary in Florida. He also serves as the Academic Dean on campus. With Dr. Michael Allen, he serves as general editor of two series: Zondervan Academic's New Studies in Dogmatics and T & T Clark's International Theological Commentary. Dr. Swain is co-chair of the Reformed Theology Consultation in the Evangelical Theological Society. He blogs regularly at the Alliance site Reformation21 and Common Places. Dr. Swain is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in America. He and his wife, Leigh, have four children. This week Theology on the Go is featuring a podcast on an overview of Trinitarian theology. On the night our Lord was betrayed he taught His disciples about the Trinity. That alone ought to convince us that the doctrine of the Trinity is a practical matter. This podcast is the second in a series focusing on the doctrine of the Trinity. In light of the recent Trinitarian controversy, Theology on the Go believes that a series like this is an important service to the Church of our Lord Jesus Christ. So, grab that cup of coffee and meet us at the table!
Dr. Scott Swain preaches at RTS Orlando from 1 Timothy 1.
Scott Swain explores that the Rule of Faith contains two elements - the Triune Name of God and the basic narrative of the Gospel. The Rule of Faith helps us when we read Scripture and while it does not have independent authority, it can help us as we explore who God is.
Scott Swain explores that the Rule of Love is the fruit of reading Scripture. As creatures, we have the posture of love as we listen to the voice of our Creator. God uses Scripture to change our stony hearts into hearts of flesh. The Protestant Confessions are shown to be under the authority of Scripture and only authoritative if consistent with Scripture.

Michael Allen and Scott Swain discuss whether Christians and churches be both catholic and Reformed. In their book Reformed Catholicity: The Promise of Retrieval for Theology and Biblical Interpretation (Baker Academic), Allen and Swain suggest Reformed Christians can commit not only to the ultimate authority of Scripture but also to receiving Scripture within the context of the apostolic church. This manifesto presents a case that to be Reformed means to go deeper into true catholicity rather than away from it. At the same time, it means holding fast to sola Scriptura. Michael Allen is Associate Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology and Dean of Students and Scott Swain is Associate Professor of Systematic Theology and Academic Dean at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida.
