In this much anticipated episode, Dr Sinnema and George will discuss how the Synod addressed the the nature and work of conversion. Did the Synod believe in the modern term "Irresistable Grace?" Is there any confusion on that term? What is the Holy Spirit's work? Does He make a person believe by force? Does free will play a role at all? How does grace work in the world and in our hearts? We will answer these questions and more!  *Check out Part 1 - Ep# 296 The Synod of Dordt, God's Sovereignty, & Man's Responsibility for a general overview of the Canons.
