I most enjoyed Jam’s discussion with himself on the issues surrounding work on a Sunday.
Many of us, instinctively, think that refusing to work on a Sunday is a bad thing. Ideally we wouldn’t do it very often, but we mustn’t make a rule out of it. Surely, in this day and age when grace rules, Sabbath observance has had its day?
Not quite so simple. It’s all about how we use our freedom.
Anyway: Enjoy reading New Jam in dialogue with Old Jam
Having finished reading Reformed is not Enough, I’ve done some reading of those who interact with the material.
What’s going on in the passages (like those in Hebrews) that speak of Christians falling away? An extended quotation because it is so helpful:
“Your kingdom come, on earth as it is in heaven”
Quite so. The question is, when will this happen?
What I’ve recently come to realise is that there are two mistakes to make here.
Neil’s post distinguishing between judicial death and natural death is most enlightening.
A common question. Which leads some people to try and argue that the faithful in OT times would have known as much about Jesus as we do today. They argue this to avoid being open to pluralism, relativism. inclusivism or rose-by-any-other-name-ism.
Here’s what I wrote in a recent e-mail on this matter – just in case it helps anyone.
God is working his purpose out,
As year succeeds to year;
God is working His purpose out,
And the time is drawing near;
Nearer and nearer draws the time,
The time that shall surely be,
When the earth shall be filled
With the glory of God,
As the waters cover the sea.
