Crossing The Red Sea
Thinking Fellows
07/11/23 • 43 min
In this episode, Dr. Paulson and Caleb go back yet again and discuss the events of the book of Exodus. Paulson uses the crossing of the Red Sea to demonstrate what it looks like to receive and be delivered by God's promises and what it looks like to stand in direct opposition to those same promises. This helps show why Luther so frequently referenced Pharoh while debating Erasmus.
