This episode looks into the historical 1924 controversy over "common grace" that led to the formation of the Protestant Reformed Church. Our hosts explore how Abraham Kuyper's theological concepts, brought from the Netherlands to America, sparked significant debate within the Christian Reformed Church. They examine the three points of common grace adopted by the CRC Synod of Kalamazoo and why figures like Herman Hoeksema rejected these principles. The conversation touches on the theological nuances between different Dutch terms for grace, the complex relationship between common grace and antithesis, and how these concepts have been applied (and sometimes misapplied) in engaging with culture and scholarship over the past century.
