Foundations of Grace: New Testament

Gospel Grace in 2 Peter

In his second letter, Peter writes to protect God’s people from false teachers, and he sets himself apart from such teachers by heralding the doctrines of grace so that God’s people might confirm their calling and election and persevere to the end. In this lesson, Dr. Lawson highlights the key texts of 2 Peter that teach the doctrines of grace, with a particular emphasis on the doctrines of total depravity and irresistible grace.
