The Brothers and Sisters of Christ

In this week’s Words of Grace broadcast, Pastor Ben Winslett considers a deeply comforting truth from Scripture: we are not only children of God, but Jesus actually calls us His brothers and sisters.

Drawing from parallel accounts in Luke 8 and Matthew 12, we explore the amazing and perhaps shocking assertion of Jesus that those who hear and do God’s commands are His true brothers and sisters. And according to Hebrews 2 , Christ is the Captain of our salvation and unashamed to call us brethren. Lastly, Hebrews 13 reminds us to let brotherly love continue! As brothers and sisters, we should treat one another differently.

Join us for this encouraging reflection on the family language of Scripture and the grace that binds us together in Christ.

Total Depravity | Sovereign Grace Series, Episode 2

In the latest episode of Words of Grace, Ben Winslett delves deeper into the doctrine of Sovereign Grace with a focus on Total Depravity. We explore key biblical passages that reveal humanity’s inherent sinfulness and our utter dependence on God’s sovereign will for salvation. By examining scriptures from John, Romans, and Ephesians, we uncover the profound truth that without God’s intervention, no one can come to Christ. Join us as we unpack these foundational doctrines and understand how they shape our view of salvation and the world around us.

If you’ve never heard of or studied the late Michael Heiser’s Unseen Realm, he makes some fanciful, outlandish, and even unprecedented assertions. One error and blunder he committed was to appeal to Deuteronomy 32:8, in a failed attempt to say that after the fall of the Tower of Babel, God gave authority to various lesser... […]
Is Unseen Realm by Michael Heiser a Departure from Historic Orthodoxy? November 5, 2025
Long title, right? For the past two years, I’ve warned people about the teachings of the late Michael Heiser, regarding a council of “lesser elohim” under the authority of Jehovah (though Heiser’s preferred pronunciation would be Yahweh). I first came across it when a long time, Christian friend made a facebook post about the multiplicity... […]

Substance of the Fruit of the Spirit August 13, 2025
Unfortunately, it has become very popular in the Christian marketplace today to deify faith to such a degree that some would erroneously teach that if your faith ever falters or fails, that is evidence you are not truly saved and probably have been a false professor up to this point. Faith is incorrectly exalted and... […]
