If you are super interested in disqualifying and watch-dogging pastors who disagree with you on secondary issues, yet you are interested in platforming or re-shaping the narrative around a pastor who is obviously disqualified because he's now kind of CN...

The conversations around whether the atonement is limited or unlimited may be the best current example of how: 1). People operate with different dictionaries 2). Topics are often more complicated than the “names” given to certain systems 3). People resort to straw-men to win

If you are a Gentile, Gal. 3:10-14, and the curse therein, is not about you. You are down-wind from the curse, because if the curse remained, the Gentiles would never be able to receive the blessing promised to them through the seed of Abraham. Jesus brought this blessing!

The atonement is: -limited in some ways -unlimited in some ways -recapitulative -substitutionary -victorious -exemplifying/symbolic -for the individual -for all creation -legal -covenantal -eschatological

Yes!

Paul presents the Gospel in Romans 1:2-5: -Promised beforehand in the Scriptures -Concerning the Son of God -Who is the promised offspring of David -Who is incarnate -Who is installed as the Son in Power -Who rose from the dead -Who is now Lord -Who brings grace to the nations

Is the doctrine of Conditional Immortality within the realm of orthodox doctrine?

Ive noticed that when an author claims to be critiquing or engaging with the status quo theologically, and he is saying something we don't like, he is "novel" and we paint it negatively. If its someone saying something we like, it is automatically "reclamation".

Back in college me and some buds made some heavy music for Jesus. We drove to Nashville and recorded it at a top tier professional studio. We wanted this to be a blend of our favorite metalcore, post-hardcore, and pop-punk but extremely Gospel-centered. Go check it out ❤️

If you are in Christ, you are -A new creation -A temple of the Holy Spirit -Free to keep the Law of Christ Stop talking about yourself like you are still a slave to sin. You can walk back in the prison and sit on the cot, but the door is open and the chains are off.

The “Kingdom of Heaven” in the Gospels is not fancy-speak for the place we go when we die. It is “God’s intended creation order”, and Jesus brought it, and now asks us to bring it. In our homes. At our jobs. At the gym. At softball. On this app. We are the in-breaking.
