John Bunyan Conference

John Bunyan Conference
April 26-28, 2010
Reformed Baptist Church, Lewisburg, PA

The general theme of the conference will be “The Relationship of the Old and the New.” We decided to tackle some difficult subjects this year. There will be time for discussion, and the topics are certain to stimulate lively discussion. In years past we have been able to earnestly discuss some areas where Calvinists and New Covenant Theologians disagree. Please mark your calendar and plan to join us. Registration information is available in the current issue of the "Sound of Grace" (Issue 164, February 2010, pg. 19), by phone at (301) 473-8781, or by email to johnbunyanconf@comcast.net.

John Reisinger will speak on “Continuity and Discontinuity” or the relationship of the old and new. What continues and what is done away in Christ? This is a knotty problem of long standing. He will also speak on the “Active and Passive Obedience of Christ.”

Jack Jeffery will speak on “Seeing the New Testament through New Covenant eyes: Two Test Texts – The Point of the Parentheses in Romans 2:13-15 and 1 Corinthians 9:21.” Both of these texts are greatly misunderstood.

Blake White will have two messages on “The Law of Christ.” This phrase is thrown around without being carefully defined. This is an exceedingly important subject for new covenant people.

Fred Zaspel did his doctrinal thesis on B.B. Warfield and will share the results with two messages on this great giant of the past.

Steve Wellum will cover "Infant Baptism" and the non-biblical presuppositions upon which it rests.

Scripture says, “Iron Sharpens Iron” (Prov. 27:17). This year’s topics assure that there will be some big grindstones at work on some long knives.
