The Supremacy of Christ

He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by Him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent. For in Him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of His cross.
(Colossians 1:15-20 ESV)

TULIP

I am watching a seminar on TULIP taught by John Piper. TULIP is an acronym for the five points of Calvinism:

Total Depravity
Unconditional Election
Limited Atonement
Irresistible Grace
Perseverance of the Saints

The seminar is broken up into nine parts. The videos and notes can be viewed and downloaded here: http://www.desiringgod.org/ResourceLibrary/Seminars/1727_TULIP_Part_1/
