Is faith a good work? Is faith a gift from God that he has to decisively cause us to choose in order to get full credit for our salvation? Is faith equivalent\xa0 to "righteousness"? Prominent Calvinist teachers like John Piper seem to imply by how they talk about faith that their answer to all of these questions would be "yes." In this video I talk about what the bible says about the nature of faith in response to Calvinism's claims and the many comments that I've been receiving lately on this specific point.\n\xa0\nWatch the video version of this podcast here: https://youtu.be/ocEV7CznAz0\nJohn Piper\u2019s full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxtACnTtev0Watch my films here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlJNUrjZLBEp7tApoCOPhEw4F0BBQg-GrSeek First: Freedom From Worry And Anxiety (Matthew 6:25-33) https://youtu.be/Cjbj1qOIzk8\n\xa0\nWatch more of my videos on Calvinism: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlJNUrjZLBEq2FhrqzT-coMx-7nbls9Vw\nSupport Great Light Studios by becoming a monthly patron here: https://www.patreon.com/greatlightstudios or make a one-time or recurring donation to Jordan and GLS through PayPal here: https://bit.ly/3nN2nYD\nYou can also send checks to:\xa0\nGreat Light Studios (Burns Cornerstone Church)143 South WashingtonBurns, KS 66840\n\xa0\nSUPPORT GLS ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/greatlightstudios\nDONATE THROUGH PAYPAL: https://bit.ly/3nN2nYD\nYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfi2w6gJGj1jHdEk-e_b7pATWITTER: https://twitter.com/JordanMHatfield\nINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/greatlightstudios\nFACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/GreatLightStudios\nTIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@greatlightstudios\nCONTACT US: contact@greatlightstudios.com
