    We can all be deluded and deceived by the world without even being aware of it. Only the Word of God can bring us from blind ignorance to the fullness of life. We can know things which is not the same as understanding them. God bless Tom Wright for helping us to find the Way, the Truth and the Life.

    I do agree with essentially everything I heard here and I think it's wonderful in that it helps us to see God's story clearly and the goal of History. the question I have is the role of the judg.ent of God upon sinners in this. like he said we talk about atonement I relationship to the theme of final judgment whereas the scriptural background is the restoration of mankind to the realize his purpose as the image of God. where does the judgment fit into the narrative? it can't be denied that it is apart of the divine revelation. The story is not complete without that reality. I don't think the idea of God as a judge who threatens judgment upon idol worshipers is pagan. It's a part of the biblical narrative.

    • @michaelpalmer3540

      Agree with your analysis and is one the criticism against NT Wright. I just don't think that is he main focus. Like many teachers, they have an area of specific focus. Does not mean they don't believe in real judgment. Just my two cents.

    The only thing I struggle with is the concept of our involvement it trying to manifest the kingdom. The "pull up your socks and get on with it" concept. Paul was talking about Christ living in him and not him trying to live christ.

    • @katharinedavis4947
      @katharinedavis4947 Před 5 lety +1

      Yes I agree its not our own efforts , its about inviting, zllowing God the Holy Spirit to work in us and through us. I know I am amazed at how fluently I speak when that happens . I could never speak like that on my own. It is things Ive been taught or read , but it comes out anointed. Whether Im sharing the gospel , praying generally , or praying for someones healing. Sharing a dream or a vision etc. On my own I couldnt speak at all , but I speak with an authority not my own. When we speak in tongues we give up authority over our voice , its th e same. K

    The west miss the atonement rite because they dont have the meal sacrifice rite idea. It was called the guilt offering rite, or the kapparah rite in jewish imagery.
    It's like visiting your grandfather, or in our case the Grand Father in heaven. The Emperor, being Son of Heaven, offers himself a sacrifice for all (for all men), bringing all in his domain in union with Heaven in a meal with the Grand Father.
    It's like you as a head of the family bringing food to a party -- a symbol of goodwill, and desire for relationship.
    The difference is in our case, God Himself gave us the offering of reconcilliation, which turns the idea over it's head as if now it is God Himself who calls us to the relationship meal.

    Isaiah 53:4-6
    Surely he took up our pain
    and bore our suffering,
    yet we considered him punished by God,
    stricken by him, and afflicted.
    But he was pierced for our transgressions,
    he was crushed for our iniquities;
    the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
    and by his wounds we are healed.
    We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
    each of us has turned to our own way;
    and the Lord has laid on him
    the iniquity of us all.
    it seems that Tom Wright's main purpose is to chastise the Bible believing church for teaching what is plainly in Scripture and unambiguous. What will be the fruit of his teaching?

    I love you. Totally 💯 everyone thinks this platform is fake and nobody is here but I see, all venues of truth have been corrupted and closed so they can control the information. I will use everything to tell you faithful the truth after the truth was told to your leaders. It’s not that I believe their wicked, no. Human --humility-man-I see the fear that my return brings. Because you have been separated from God for so long, and I am sorry 😞 you have suffered so much to get here. I’m sorry you have gone threw so much pain and lost so much; I feel you hurt and I do not judge you for what you as I being born of flesh would say “WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME !!!!!!! Why didn’t you help us!!!!!! Why did we have to suffer so much!!!!” Its the same as my flesh said. You are made in the image of GOD so GOD FEELS ALL THINGS AS YOU . Smile I LOVE YOU, I am grateful for your commitment for without your faithfulness, the whole situation would have gone way different. Salvation will be in the hearts of man. The ones who are clothed in white and seated next to me on the throne would be the saviors to the savior who had become anti holding all sin upon his back and with the fullness of creation and redemption of the angelic and human. Both would work together to save the SON WHO HOLDS JUDGMENT AND THE ANGER OF SIN PLACED ON HIM (the beast) it began the works of PERFECT LOVE AND FULLNESS OF ALL WORD. the time for testing of all man Covid 19 corona describes a light surrounding a mass eclipsing the SON sun 😉. YOU WERE TO THE ANGELS WHAT THE APPLE WAS TO EVE THE TEST. Matthew 20 the land owner and overseers is about the fallen, why are they like you? The wage but like Adam didn’t reason their ability to bring forward this agreement was all that they weren’t before our creation. Adam was naked before he was aware he was naked and it was in that nakedness GODS RELATIONSHIP BEGAN. sin is missing the mark wildness is the state of affairs left after mistake with evil being the final judgment after all works compleat. Now you can see how all of creation is looking down and up at you to end this story and turn all works to good. If one is lost all creation fails the isolation of desolation GOD LEFT ALONE AFTER HIS CREATION TURNS AGAINST HIM AND LEAVES HIM ALONE AFTER JUDGEMENT. The is why you were made in the image of GOD as the last WORD TO SIN as GOD cannot fail, can HIS IMAGE? The name that nobody knows 🙃that’s me with the woman in the Wilderness; all scripture and all prophecy in all nations across all religions will be full filled so that everyone will know who the true GOD is of the Earth and that no man, dogma or disbelief can deny who I am.

This door tells me a lot of things as the dragon it is the instructions to bring the humanity up and judging them to hell judged death when opened the boats carry the serpent strikes and binds the two serpents circles them in a pillar and takes them down to hell.
    As the 👑 THE POEPLE ARE BESIEGING THE DOOR BINDING UP SREE (money dragon greed is the dragon in the heart of man and no unrighteousness can enter or go past this point for Gods working leading and pure creators who are part of the universe and total creation have fathered these lands like good children fathered these lands and have maintained righteousness lest these warning wouldn’t exists as the righteous have passed their testing fulling the prophecy, you will see many things which may frighten you heirs to the KINGDOM, Children of GOD, those seated next to the FATHER, AND THE KING OF GLORY. Infinity is when your creation connects and and all Creation exists together in infinity the (dead, the living, the alien, artificial, past, Future, angelic, fallen in their perfect state your love for the FATHER must be complete you righteous and you have created is not the OF THE FATHER AND WAS NOT THE PURPOSE. You fallen were you lead and teach your little brothers they were created to help you transform from fix thinkers to ones who have choice making you exactly them you are reflections of the FATHER (fallen I tell you get up dust yourself off and learn just like I you little brother threw all you have done your works are incomplete you have lost your zeal now return to your fist love for the hour is approaching where judgement will be set take your place as I have taken my place to tell you brothers help us understand, help the FATHER GATHER ALL THOSE UP EVERYONE AND THE SON OF THE MORNING STAR YOUR UNDERSTANDING IS HERE STOP YOUR DECEAT AND FOLLOW ME. this is the purposes for sending the arch Angels away, this was the reason for calling to me the son of the morning star legion I have learned your decent and have taken you threw all that the father wanted you to see with me.

    He is trying real hard to integrate ancient understanding with his previous understanding here. Only it comes off as being an erroneous lesson in how mankind only exists for the creation, instead of the creation for man.
    He speaks of "pagan" ways of viewing the world...and he has himself adopted evolution and now it seems nature worship into his theology. sigh...

  • @philiphughes5302
    @philiphughes5302 Před 7 lety +1

    Wright confuses the covenants, attributing to carnal Israel those blessings that only belong to spiritual Israel. The Mosaic covenant was conditional upon the nation's obedience, it was a typical covenant that pointed toward the new covenant in Christ. The benefits of the new covenant did not come into play only after Jesus's death but have always been applicable to those of faith. In the book he tells us that the shed blood represents not death, but life released. This was put to bed by Leon Morris's The Apostolic Preaching of the Cross. Wright nowhere engages with such scholars. Again, he draws a distinction between sin being condemned in Jesus' flesh and Jesus the person. So while sin was condemned in his flesh, Jesus was not condemned. Is it possible, however, to separate the two? I think not. It was Jesus the person who died upon the cross, a death that was itself a punishment for sin. Whilst Wright is very eloquent, he is essentially falsifying the teaching of Scripture.

    • @bobpolo2964
      @bobpolo2964 Před 6 lety +2

      The life is in the blood, friend. (Leviticus and Hebrews) And, yes, God condemned sin in the flesh of the Messiah just like Scripture says explicitly (Romans 8:1-4)
      Your line of thinking would lead to the logical conclusion that God became man to punish Himself for our sins. How does that conclusion map on to the meaning of baptism and communion (Lord's supper)?

    • @cptnavman
      @cptnavman Před 5 lety +1

      No he doesn't "confuse the covenants attributing to carnal Israel those blessings that only belong to spiritual Israel" I've read almost everything he's written and no he doesn't say that at all...read ch 11f in Paul and the Faithfulness of God.

  • @jakemarks633

      I can see why people say this, given his omissions regarding the atonement of the Messiah and it’s OT background, but I wouldn’t say he’s a false teacher. He, like the other side, have blind spots in his theology. He’s essentially eviscerated the wrath of God from the cross of Christ, as if God putting Messiah forward wasn’t a propitiation for sins, to demonstrate God’s righteousness. The other side have eviscerated the other mysteries of the cross-i.e., the disarming of the powers of darkness and principalities, etc.-and the goal of history moving towards the new creation. Both of these things are true and ought to be emphasised.
