The Trinity Saves! The Bible teaches that the Father elects a particular people, the Son redeems them and the Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates and unites them to Jesus Christ. The Trinity works in harmony to make certain God's eternal will is accomplished (Eph 1:3-5; John 6:63-65), infallibly bringing it to pass. The following are carefully selected essays and sermons on Monergistic Regeneration from the history of the church which demonstrate that this is the silver thread of orthodoxy which God has revealed in his Scriptures to His faithful throughout the centuries. May God be glorified and the saints be edified in the reading of them.

In a recent interview, J.I. Packer was asked "which theological issues he would commend young Christian leaders to study in order to be prepared for the next fifty years." His number one answer was Regeneration. "He said that the doctrine of regeneration has not been fully appreciated by many who do not understand that to be born again with a new heart and new nature means that we have at our deepest level a new identity and new passionate desires for God’s Word and ways. He commended to all young Christian leaders a thorough study on the doctrine of regeneration." This eBook has aggregated the following resources with this very thing in mind.
