In this presentation, Pastor Anthony Uvenio discusses the doctrine of total depravity which is a vital aspect of Calvinism. Total depravity refers to the belief that man is spiritually dead and in need of resurrection. It is pervasive and affects all areas of being, rendering man unable to choose spiritual good without God's grace. Pastor Anthony emphasizes that man's will is corrupt and excluded from the salvation equation. Total depravity requires a spiritual resurrection- not tough to understand but tough to swallow. He explores various biblical references that support the idea of total depravity and highlights the need for a change in the heart. The session concludes by emphasizing that salvation is impossible with man but possible with God, and that our salvation is a completely free and unconditional gift.
