In this 40th Episode of "The Shield & Sword Podcast", Your Hosts(Pastor Matney and Bro. Derek Rich) introduce the root issue of the contaminating influence of Calvinistic theology, namely unscriptural sovereignty, in Part One of "New Covenant Truth or Calvinistic Theology: What's Shaping Your Beliefs?" This Series was deemed important enough for a G.G.S.(Gospel Guideposts Series) tag to be placed on it, because one's beliefs about sovereignty touch literally every belief of what God is like and how He interacts with us. For this reason, this introductory Episode emphasizes that if our views are not shaped by clear New Covenant Truth then we are susceptible to the gravitational pull of any variation of unscriptural sovereignty. These varying degrees of deterministic contamination have been seen since the gnostics of the first century, but popularized by Calvinistic theology in more recent times, thus earning it the representative role of that which is contrary to New Covenant Truth as stated in the series' title. Be enlightened and equipped for a battle in which you may not have realized the side on which you are standing! "The Shield & Sword Podcast" is a Ministry of the FULL GOSPEL FAITH MINISTRIES.
