We loved having Steve Meister [@SteveMeisterVDM] in the Coffee House ➡️ EP16 Steve Meister: The Rule of Faith, Scripture, Tradition, History, and Christology
Check out the timestamps in the comments 👇
Why have Christians used creeds for centuries? What is the Rule of Faith? Why do words like Trinity and consubstantial matter? And how should Protestants think about tradition without compromising sola Scriptura?
In this episode, Steve explains why careful theological language is essential for guarding the faith once delivered to the saints, how the early church used creeds to preserve the gospel, and why these questions remain deeply relevant today.
We hope this conversation serves the church well.

Glad to speak with @SpurgeonPiper on confessions of faith and how they matter for the life and practice of the local church.
We expanded on the short article I wrote for @BrokenWharfe, “Are Confessions of Faith Useful to the Local Church?” Links below 👇

I’m so glad many have been encouraged by my sermon at SCRBPC on Matthew 7:13-27, “Justification According to Jesus.”
Many have heard this text preached as if Jesus says assurance comes by our works. But He’s actually warning us away from such teachings.

Glad to contribute to @FoundersMin’s series on recovering Nicene orthodoxy.
I briefly address why the church’s creedal consensus is apostolic, Baptist, and essential to affirming the Christian faith in our culture of subjective self-identities.
"Christians can be identified objectively as those who confess with their mouths the creed of their hearts, that Jesus is Lord." – Steve Meister (@SteveMeisterVDM)

A recommitment to training pastors in our churches would mean a revival of the Great Commission. —@SteveMeisterVDM ligm.in/4aKPG86

In this article on EFS, I briefly discussed why we must affirm a single mind and will in God.

I wrote this short post for @BrokenWharfe on “The Importance of Confessionalism Amidst Cultural Decline.”
“Recovering Confessionalism is not a distraction from ministering the gospel in our current cultural convulsions. It is a necessary bulwark for it.” brokenwharfe.com/confessiona…

Glad to have Brent Ward, Director of Development at @IRBS_1689, representing International Reformed Baptist Seminary at our conference.
I’m thankful we’re church partners with IRBS at @IBCSac and would commend their church partnership program to others.

Day two of our Sacramento Gospel Conference has begun with a full house for James Dolezal on “Partless God: Divine Simplicity.”
“Only a simple God could be the absolute Creator and account for what Paul says of God in Romans 11:36 as true.”

We had a blessed Pastoral Workshop to kick off our 10th Sacramento Gospel Conference. Dr James Dolezal addressed the incomprehensibility of God and pastoral ministry. Very helpful and clear. Looking forward to our Conference proper.

I was grateful to contribute to this edition of @CredoMagazine on the truly foundational doctrine of divine simplicity.
I wrote an article on why EFS violates divine simplicity, “You Need One to Count to the Trinity.”
English-Simplicity & Pure Act
Fredenberg-No parts or passions
@SteveMeisterVDM-EFS and Simplicity?
Te Velde-Aquinas
Salon-Simplicity affects everything
@DrDanger1689-Simplicity key to Incarnation
@T_A_Gatewood-Can we distinguish attributes? 🧵
