Re: What are your thoughts concerning universalism?
It seems that Jesus gave such strong warnings of entering hell, that it would be a sin to give someone hope that he could repent after death. What if it's too late? Oops, sorry, I guess I was wrong. Wouldn't the person who gave him that hope bear some guilt also? Hello Dwight, when you say, "give s...

Re: How Jesus Prepared a Place
I can remember also seeing something along these lines when I came to this portion of John shortly after first hearing Steve's series on the kingdom of God, which series was probably my first experience with having a major paradigm shift in understanding scripture and the gospel. I share your unders...

Re: iOS problems
Hello Shelley, Are you using the website as you said through your safari browser, or do you have the narrow path app for ios? If you're not using the app, I would suggest go to the app store and try that, it works great for me. If you are using the app, I'm sorry, i'm only a slightly savvy user. Thi...

Re: Dust to dust...then what?
Hello Steve, As I said, if Paul could comfortably speak of persons being "in the body or out of the body,"... I think this is precisely the often overlooked problem with your reading of Paul in 2Cor 12. Of course if we take for granted a view of souls being immaterial as you do, then we're very comf...

Re: Where Is Everybody?
In days gone by this very thread would have already been turned into a 9 page thread about the nature of Hell—and going strong. :lol: :lol: I still check the forum just about everyday as well. I've started to type quite a few posts only to delete them. Either I decided my tone was far to reactionary...

Re: The Shack
I watched it last night. I thought it was a respectful and heartfelt theodicy, and a fairly standard one at that. I couldn't see any sign of this supposed universalism. If it was present, it was pretty subtle, but it seemed more like just your standard Arminian agnosticism with regard to what God ma...

Re: Boyd's Crucifixion of the Warrior God
Hello Homer, No, I think to conclude that God's exhibition of the cross is limited to the believing ones in John 3:16 is getting the cart before the horse(I mean this in the close context of this thread, not as a sweeping theological statement). For while we were yet enemies, Christ died for the ung...

Re: Boyd's Crucifixion of the Warrior God
I've been looking forward to this release for quite a while now, as many i'm sure. Are you going through the popular release or the 'big and boring' one?

Re: Why get emotional about eschatology?
Hey brother, I think the reason is simple. If a dispensationalist has never even heard the term which labels his belief, he then quite naturally equates the importance of his 'eschatological' beliefs with those of how one is saved or the nature of God himself. In other words, it is a defining aspect...

Re: James White Twitter Exchange
Well, I'm sort of famous -- Dr. White mentioned me on his Dividing Line program this week. He retweeted a quote from Jonathan Edwards about God's pent up wrath poured out on Jesus, to which I replied "yuck." Wow man, that was you? That's funny, I heard that and just kind of shook my head smiling an...
