Dr. Alan Kurschner critiqued the most common Amillennial argument in the book of Revelation using Greg Beale's restated argument from William Hendricksen. Amillennialists believe that Revelation 20:1–6 recapitulates Revelation 12:7–11 as occurring during the interadvent period. Beale proposes seven parallels that he thinks make this argument (see the Table below). Dr. Kurschner criticizes each supposed parallel one by one and demonstrates that not only are these not viable parallels, but they instead argue for progression. ------------- TABLE 41.

In this episode we welcome back Dr. G. K. Beale, professor of New Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary in Dallas, to discuss Paul's use of the Old Testament in his letter to the church in Colossae. Dr. Beale has written an insightful commentary on Colossians and Philemon in which he highlights the theological depth and practical application of these epistles, focusing on the Old Testament allusions in Colossians and their relevance to Paul's message of Christ's supremacy and the believer's union with Him. The conversation explores the nature of Paul's argument against syncretistic false teaching, the significance of Christ as the true temple, and the practical implications of Paul's exhortations for the church today. Dr. Beale also shares his method for identifying Old Testament allusions and discusses the relationship between Ephesians and Colossians.

"Chapter 14 marks the end of another cycle of visions. This cycle began in chapter 12 with the anticipation of Christ's birth and ends here with the final judgment" - Greg Beale
For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness… (2 Peter 1:5a). We are saved by grace through faith. Full stop. Read Ephesians 2:1-10 for the most pointed Biblical word on that. But grace does more than save, it also sanctifies. And sanctification requires our partnership. That is the way of God's economy. We have been given everything we need for it. Not that we will become perfect in this life, but we will make progress, that is, if we put effort into it. As Paul writes about the fruit of the Spirit, so Peter writes about these virtues. It is worth noting that the goal of these virtues is love, which is the most eminent Christian virtue binding the others together. Love is not primarily a feeling, even though it surely includes that. It always includes action, as in “this is love…God loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins” (1 John 4:10). Paul wrote, “The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love” (Galatians 5:6). This is Peter's version. This is our goal: love. Of course, we shouldn't say that we can wait until the end to love. These virtues work to strengthen our ability to love. Here, Peter begins with ‘goodness'. What does this word mean and why is it first? Our English word ‘good' or ‘goodness' is used to translate two different Greek words. The one word describes good actions like feeding the hungry and helping an elderly neighbour mow their grass. The other Greek word describes who a person is. Jesus had this to say, “No one is good—except God alone” (Mark 10:18). This is the word Peter uses here. God's goodness has context. In Exodus 33, Moses asks God to reveal his glory. After some back and forth, God says, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you” (19). So, God's goodness is connected to his glory. In his reflections on this story, Paul writes that we “are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory” (2 Corinthians 3:18). This, I think, is why Peter begins here. That we participate in the divine nature, that we become like God, that our character becomes good like his. Let me offer some suggestions to add goodness to faith. First, worship God. Greg Beale wrote “What people revere, they resemble, either for ruin or for restoration”. We might also say, we worship what we love; so, love God and become like him. The challenge is that for many of us, worship is passive. We sit and receive what the leaders have to offer. How will you actively worship God? Second, examine. The dictionary defines this: “to look at or consider a person carefully and in detail in order to discover something about them”. Christians have long practiced self-examine for the discovery of sinful habits and tendencies. The practice has been used to kill off the ‘earthly nature' (Colossians 3:5). Of course, this is done under the guidance of God (Psalm 139:23-24). This is time consuming. And speaking of God's guidance, a third bit of advice in our effort towards goodness: follow the Holy Spirit. Jesus named the Spirit, our counsellor, our guide. Paul said we are to walk in step with him. The Spirit will guide us away from our earthly nature, towards the goodness of God. That is the Spirit's job: “to transform us into God's image with ever-increasing glory”. Will we follow? All the gifts are here. Let's use them. So, as you journey on: Grace and peace to you many times over as you deepen in your experience with God and Jesus, our Master. Grow in grace and understanding of our Master and Savior, Jesus Christ. Glory to the Master, now and forever! Amen! (2 Peter 1:2; 3:18).

Pastor Ryan Groshek continues in our Revelation sermon series. Revelation: The Ultimate VictoryWeek 14Highlights: Revelation 14:1-201. When it seems like the whole world has given in, we see God reserves a faithful people for Himself. (Revelations 14:1-5)2. When it seems like the world has won, we see the victors fall and the losers win (Revelations 14:6-13)"Babylon's promise of prosperous earthly welfare for its willing subjects is an intoxication that the majority of the world's inhabitants also want to imbibe. Once one imbibes, the intoxicating influence removes all desire to resist Babylon's destructive influence, blinds one to Babylon's own ultimate insecurity and to God as the source of real security, and numbs one against any fear of a coming judgment."- Greg Beale, The Book of Revelation NIGTC3.

“The end of the ages has indeed broken into history. Christ is the perfect Adam . . . who has come to achieve what all those before him have failed to achieve.” – Benjamin GladdIn their message at TGC's 2021 national conference, Greg Beale and Benjamin Gladd explain the importance of eschatology in the Christian's understanding of all of Scripture.The storyline of Jesus—his death, resurrection, and ascension—is crucial to equipping the Christian for all of life. As we understand the Old Testament more fully, the person of Christ is magnified. As we understand that we have the same resurrection power of Christ in us, we're enabled to obey his commands and conquer sin.

Nancy Guthrie interviews Greg Beale about teaching Colossians
Explore evangelism’s relationship to other actions. Consider missions in which there is cross-cultural evangelism or where the gospel has not yet been in a culture, church planting, apologetics in which questions are answered in the process of evangelism, and social action. In James 1:27 we read, “Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.” Consider the place of evangelism. Is Evangelism the only calling of the Christian? Is Evangelism the only calling of the Church? Consider that the Gospel presentation starts with sin and salvation but the Bible starts with creation. We read in Genesis 1:28, “And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Consider Genesis 2:15, “The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.” Greg Beale uses the phrase, "Edenizing the world". Consider the Great Commission, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Going, therefore, disciple all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
Cette semaine dans ”Que dit la Bible ?”, nous faisons une pause dans nos capsules audio hebdomadaires afin de vous présenter la conférence que Daniel Saglietto a donné sur les Psaumes 1 et 2 en mai 2016 à Montréal (Canada). Tout en reconnaissant l'importance de l'unité textuelle constituée par chaque Psaume, Daniel met en avant l'unité du psautier dans son ensemble et le rôle clé joué par l'éditeur de la version canonique des cinq livres qui nous sont parvenus. Cette approche herméneutique, parfois baptisée “approche canonique”, est clé pour la compréhension de l'Ancien Testament, en particulier de certains livres historiques comme Rois ou Chroniques. En ce qui concerne l'édition canonique du psautier, Daniel souligne le rôle clé des psaumes 1 et 2, servant en quelque sorte de “porte d'entrée interprétative”.

The Sabbath was made for people (not people for the Sabbath) Greg Beale's conclusions 1. First, the seventh-day commemoration is Gen 2:3 and Israel's Sabbath ordinance is transferred to the first day of the week because of Christ's resurrection. 2. Israel's way of observing the Sabbath, with all its detailed requirements, falls away, and there is a return to the creational mandate. The observance of this mandate is a day of commemoration of God's creative rest, a celebration that Christ has entered that rest, that believers have begun to enter such rest, and a pointing forward to believers completely entering that rest. God gives Sabbath as a gift; it's an island or get-to in a sea of have-to. THE DIVINE RHYTHM 1. One day per week (Sabbath) "...and [God] rested on the seventh day from all his work that He had done." Genesis 2:2 2. Around 8 hours per day (Sleep) "He gives to his beloved sleep" (Ps 127:2) God made us to need sleep 3. Every seven years (Sabbatical) Lev 25:2-7; 18-22
