Your Systematic Theology Framework Might Be Distorting Scripture...Here’s Why

Are you reading the Bible… or reading your system into the Bible? In this eye-opening discussion, Dr. Adam Harwood explains how many Christians unknowingly approach Scripture with a preloaded definition of predestination and election—usually inherited from systematic theology textbooks. When that happens, we don’t discover what the Bible says… we import what we’ve already been taught. This clip breaks down: • Why predestination in Scripture rarely matches theological definitions • How systematic frameworks create interpretive “loops” • Why believers of all traditions can agree on the Bible’s own language about salvation • How exegesis must come before theological systems • Why Calvinism often seems “everywhere” once the system is learned • Why election, predestination, and salvation must be understood biblically—not presuppositionally If you want to understand these doctrines from the text itself, this conversation will change the way you read the Bible. 📘 Guest: Dr. Adam Harwood 🎙 From the Soteriology 101 Podcast with Dr. Leighton Flowers Check out the full interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIZ4laf8HoY Pick up your copy of Adam's Systematic Theology here: https://a.co/d/86e1Weq To get your copy of Dr. Flowers new book, Drawn By Jesus, go here: https://a.co/d/6s767Ey To SUPPORT this broadcast, please click here: https://soteriology101.com/support/ Subscribe to the Soteriology 101 Newsletter here: www.soteriology101.com/newsletter Is Calvinism all Leighton talks about? https://soteriology101.com/2017/09/22/is-calvinism-all-you-talk-about/ DOWNLOAD OUR APP: LINK FOR ANDROIDS: https://play.google.com/store/apps/de...
