As a follow-up to his Reformed Academy course, Exploring 2 Peter: The Promise and the Path, Dan Ragusa joins Camden Bucey and Ryan Noha to discuss preterist views of 2 Peter 3 concerning the promise of new heavens and a new earth. After establishing the future orientation of the epistle, Dan provides a sketch of the history of preterist interpretations beginning with John Owen's “Oriental” reading, noting the influence of Joseph Mede in the context of seventeenth-century Puritanism. He then turns his attention to modern-day exegesis of this chapter from leading partial preterists, exemplified by Peter Leithart's commentary, The Promise of His Appearing: An Exposition of 2 Peter. Dan responds to Leithart's “knock down arguments” by applying the eschatological pressure of the letter as a whole, all while directing listeners to the consummate, cosmic hope of the eternal kingdom that cannot be reduced to passing of the old covenant order in 70AD.

Science and Scientism: Science is great until it oversteps boundaries. Brian sits down with Dr.Leithart to dig deeper into his lecture he gave and explores the perils of “scientism,” or a philosophy that incorrectly elevates science beyond science's own intentions and aims.
Jordan and Brandon talk with Jonathan Watson about his book on models of baptism, catechesis and communion. They cover topics like: What is baptism, catechesis and communion? What are the various models for how these relate? What is your preferred model and why? Which model deserves greater attention but has had the least popularity? What ways are there for Protestants (and Baptists) to think more deeply on this topic? What ways are there that they should change their practices?

Sometimes God's people suffer for the sake of righteousness. When that is the case, we are called to not be afraid of those who would punish righteousness from corrupt motives. Instead, we are to prioritize, and to make preparation for, answering accusers with gentleness and respect, and with a good conscience, so that those who hate our good behavior in Christ will be ashamed of themselves. Other times, Martyn Lloyd Jones is right to call out those who claim persecution for righteousness when in actuality they have sown the wind, and are now reaping the whirlwind. As Hosea says, I think it can be applied to them: "The standing grain has no heads; it shall yield no flour; if it were to yield, strangers would devour it." On a related note, here lately I've been reading up on the Ecumenical movement in our day. And it's funny to me that I find myself agreeing with certain points made by Dr. Peter Leithart about the carnality of embracing the sentiment inherent to "I am of Paul," "I am of Apollos" where Protestant denominations are concerned. The reason this amuses me is that I have absolutely no interest in larger efforts by him to let bygones be bygones where doctrine is concerned just so we can rejoin Rome - as Leithart essentially argues for. Rather, I am all the more disturbed the more I study by the move towards Globalism in the Post-War consensus which has fueled so many of the calls for Christian unity as-late. As much or more as I may agree with Dr. Leithart on some of his supporting points, it seems from what I've heard of his public debates from several years back, with Fred Sanders, Carl Trueman, and Doug Wilson, that he misses the equal application of this concern for unity when such would apply to the Roman Church. This kind of partiality is not good. Nor do I believe it's destined to succeed, however popular it may be for a time, and however persuasively designed lots of nudging towards it right now may feel. But to be clear, I generally agree with Leithart's concerns about Protestant sectarianism disguised as Christian orthodoxy. I share his concern about being unreasonably loyal to this or that particular servant of the Lord - whether real or imagined - at the expense of Christian unity. And this I mean not least with Protestantism, since I myself am a Protestant, and Protestantism in America is what I know best from an personal experiential standpoint. Yet we all must police our own after a fashion, or else we will not get far chiding other circles. So take equal note of the Scripture and its ramifications for two temptations which seem opposite, yet are actually close cousins. “Bad company ruins good morals” is contrasted in God's Word with “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” And these rebuke both those who shrug about doctrine in favor of fast agreement and superficial unity, and those who make mountains out of mole hills and strain out gnats while swallowing camels. In both cases - where we accept bad company where antinomianism is concerned, and where we accept bad company where factional partiality reigns supreme; where we love friendship with the world, and where we say "I am of Paul" or "I am of Apollos" - something of the full importance of Christ as the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep is being dismissed as trivial. And in such cases of both varieties, those who sow the wind cannot merely rebuke the whirlwind. They must reap it if they won't repent of it. Yet one thing I cannot abide by in all of this: when some in either the former or latter camp incite strong emotion in their debate opponents, or targets of opportunity, then turn around and make a mockery of reasonable responses to unnecessary rudeness by rebuking the byproducts of their antagonism - the anger, sadness, and anxiety they themselves deliberately provoked. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/garrett-ashley-mullet/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/garrett-ashley-mullet/support

Note: This episode was originally published February 25, 2020. ICYMI, please enjoy this lecture hosted by the Center for Hebraic Thought on February 15, 2020. The Christian tradition describes God as “perfect”—but how the Bible describes this perfection might surprise us. When we think of God, we often start by asking, “What is God?” This is the approach of the Westminster Catechism as well as many philosophers. This seemingly common-sense approach, however, is strange at a second glance—after all, we wouldn't typically ask, “What is your spouse?” or “What is Steve?” In this lecture, Dr. Peter Leithart argues for a different approach: asking, “Who is God?” To understand God's nature (including His perfection), we must consider how Scripture reasons. Often, the biblical authors appeal to poetry, imagery, story, and history to define God. Dr. Leithart argues that these literary forms—far from being irrational or anti-philosophical—are rigorously intellectual and potent forms of knowing a God who is personal, transcendent, and yes, perfect. This episode is a recording of the evening lecture for our February 14-15 workshop with the Rev. Dr. Peter Leithart of the Theopolis Institute.

What is R2K? Classical Reformed Two-Kingdom Theology: The two kingdoms are the visible and invisible, earthly and heavenly Christ's rule is over both. The church is in both. So, the church participates in both, but its participation is according to the sphere it is in. Visible: both ministry and magistrates, both visible church and earthly civic life Invisible: heavenly life, eternal church Alternate 2K view: The two kingdoms are the civil society and the church. Christ's rule is only over the church Civil: civil sphere is left to the “god of this world”, civil society is always assumed hostile, pagan, or secular Church: earthly church is separate, apart from civil society altogether with its own life, its own transient, “just passing through” society on earth, stands in opposition to earthly society in “prophetic denunciation” or “moral witness”, persecution complex (Evangelical view somewhat?) Flattened One Kingdom View: Christ rules over all in the same way, all (should or ought to) belong to the same one kingdom, share in same ways, life, laws, means, authorities church or civil holds superior authority? (Leithart's “theopolis”) (Catholic Church?) Natural Law - God runs the world through consistent ways, principles, reason, laws These laws are discoverable by all peoples through reason. Protestant Reformers attested this over and over. How did R2K develop? Augustine - two cities Gelasius - duo sunt Luther - spiritual and temporal governments, conscience and conduct Calvin - spiritual and temporal governments, the soul and conduct Hooker Locke Contemporary people? Why is R2K important? Theonomists - presuppositionalism, OT laws as blueprint for society Neo-Calvinists - “take every thought captive” Evangelical - a bible verse for everything Proper role of the church in the Christian life over-reaching claims for biblical authority Blurring religion and politics, salvation and progress, heaven and the nation, discipleship and social justice Importance for political thought/theory Quotes: "Regarding our eternal salvation it is true that one must not distinguish between man and woman, or between king and a shepherd, or between a German and a Frenchman. Regarding policy however, we have what St. Paul declares here; for our Lord Jesus Christ did not come to mix up nature, or to abolish what belongs to the preservation of decency and peace among us....Regarding the kingdom of God (which is spiritual) there is no distinction or difference between man and woman, servant and master, poor and rich, great and small. Nevertheless, there does have to be some order among us, and Jesus Christ did not mean to eliminate it, as some flighty and scatterbrained dreamers believe." Calvin, sermon on 1 Cor. 11:2-3 "Difference of nations [gentium] or condition or sex is indeed taken away by the unity of faith, but it remains in the conduct (or manner) of mortal life, and this order must be preserved in the journey of this life." Augustine, Epistle to the Galatians (on 3:28,29) Calvin on Christ's spiritual kingdom belonging to the inner man: "The nature of [Christ's] kingdom...is not external, but belongs to the inner man; for it consists of a good conscience and uprightness of life, not what is so reckoned before men, but what is so reckoned before God." on Isaiah 42:1 "We must observe the analogy between the kingdom of Christ and its qualities; for, being spiritual, it is established by the power of the Holy Spirit. In a word, all these things must be viewed as referring to the inner man, that is, when we are regenerated by God to true righteousness." on Isaiah 9:7 "Having shown above that there is a twofold government in man, and having fully considered the one which, placed in the soul or inward man, relates to eternal life, we are here called to say something of the other, which pertains only to civil institutions and the external regulation of...

Does Baptism Justify?by: Peter LeithartDecember 11, 2013https://theopolisinstitute.com/does-baptism-justify/
On February 15, Rev. Dr. Peter Leithart joined the Center for Hebraic Thought and a group of about 20 professors, church-goers, and students for an all-day workshop on the Perfection of God. In the second session, Dr. Leithart discusses the idea of "deflating metaphysics" a bit in order to see how the biblical authors describe God.

In the 2nd half of this episode, we have a very special guest in Gisela Kreglinger. Gisela is an author who recently published a book titled “The Spirituality of Wine” with Eerdmans Publishing. Peter Leithart sat down to talk with Gisela and we covered a lot. From "The Spirituality of Wine", to her work on George MacDonald, intoxication, how wine is produced, and much more.

In the second of a MARS HILL AUDIO series of special interviews examining politics and theology, theologian Peter J. Leithart (Between Babel and Beast: America and Empires in Biblical Perspective) discusses some of the issues raised explicitly during the current presidential campaign and the failure of many voters and observers to ask how the explosive mood of the present moment reveals deep problems in American political culture. In a recent on-line commentary, Leithart observed that “contemporary political culture is the product of a convergence of two strains of liberalism: a leftist cultural libertarianism that took off during the 1960s and 1970s, and a rightwing free-market liberalism that reached its apogee with the Reagan-Thatcher alliance.” Leithart continued: “Though they come from opposite ends of the political spectrum, both strains of liberalism are founded on a concept of freedom as the emancipation of individual choice.” Leithart suggested that the sense of dismay many currently have about our political possibilities offers Christians “a rare opportunity to take stock and ask some basic questions about our polity.” He proceeds to list a dozen or so questions we should be asking far beyond who to vote for in November: “Are gay marriage and legalized abortion deviations from American values, or expressions of them? Can we disentangle the two strains of liberalism? Can we defend free markets without endorsing free love? What does ‘freedom’ mean? . . . Can politics be humane without recognizing that human beings are souls? Are campaigning and voting the be-all and end-all of Christian political action, or are we better off diverting some of those dollars and hours to less flashy projects that have the potential to leaven political culture over the long haul?” This feature is hosted by Ken Myers, producer of the MARS HILL AUDIO Journal.

In this first episode of the Theopolis Podcast, we get a brief introduction to Peter Leithart, President of Theopolis Institute, and James Jordan, scholar-in-residence. Leithart and Jordan also discuss the integration of Bible, Liturgy, and Culture in the training that occurs at the Institute.
If you've ever spent much time over at First Things, you've probably come across the blog of writer, pastor, and theologian Peter Leithart, the journal's resident Renaissance man. With an omnivorous mind and an eye for the unusual, Leithart seems to have written about almost everything, from Shakespeare's plays and Jane Austen's novels to the meaning of baptism and the legacy of Athanasius. Whatever he's working on, though, he always aims to connect the mind to the soul—especially when it means helping ministers to minister better. Before his present successes, however, Leithart encountered his fair share of ministerial tribulation. Coming out of seminary, he intended to move straight into a career writing and teaching theology. Instead, he found himself stepping into a head pastor position with little experience and a host of demands, including helping a couple whose failing marriage was tearing his church apart. The experience taught him a lot about failure—especially how God redeems it. Thankfully, though, that wasn't the end of the story. On this week's episode of The Calling, Leithart chats with CT managing editor Richard Clark about his calling past and present, from his early desire to be a professional comedian to the theology that drives his current voracious intellectual appetite.
