The PRESENTATION explores the concept of the “Third Heaven” as described in 2 Corinthians 12:2-4, suggesting it represents the ultimate purpose of God beyond the Millennium and the Kingdom Age. It discusses biblical passages that hint at the nature of the Third Heaven, contrasting it with the Kingdom Age, and emphasises the significance of a future state where death and sin are eliminated, allowing for direct communion with God.# Highlights –  **Ultimate Purpose of God**: The presentation suggests that God's ultimate purpose transcends the Millennium and the Kingdom Age, culminating in the experience of the Third Heaven.–  **Biblical References**: It cites various Old Testament passages that refer to the idea of eternity, indicating a deeper understanding of the concept of “forever and ever” in Hebrew, distinguishing between two future states.–  **The Nature of the Third Heaven**: The Third Heaven is portrayed as a state where there is no death or sin, allowing for an intimate relationship between God and humanity, echoing the original paradise of Eden.–  **Resurrection and Immortality**: The presentation discusses the resurrection of all mankind, suggesting that ultimately, all will be made alive in Christ, which is a key aspect of the Third Heaven.–  **Divine Communication**: It emphasizes that in the Third Heaven, there will be a profound and direct communication between God and individuals, transcending current human understanding and limitations.–  **Revelation 21**: The presentation interprets Revelation 21 as describing the conditions of the Third Heaven, where there will be no more death and God will dwell directly with His people. # keywords – Third Heaven – Divine Purpose – Eternal Life

EPISODE 66 - “WHEN CLASSIC FILM'S SUPPORTING ACTORS STEAL THE SHOW” - 12/16/2024 There is nothing quite like watching a film when suddenly a supporting character comes in and walks away with the film. (Think THELMA RITTER, S.Z. SAKALL, or GALE SONDERGAARD in almost every one of their films!) This week we are focusing on some of our favorite supporting charters who come in and snatch that scene right about from under the big stars. From JOANNA BARNES' Gloria Upson declaring, “It was just ghastly!” in “Auntie Mame” to the impassioned monologue about love that BEAH RICHARDS delivers to SPENCER TRACY in “Guess Who's Coming To Dinner,” we take a fun look at these powerful performances that we're still talking about today.

Welcome to a special festive episode of The Edition podcast, where we will be taking you through the pages of The Spectator's Christmas triple issue. Up first: our review of the year – and what a year it has been. At the start of 2024, the outcome of the US election looked very different, the UK had a different Prime Minister, and The Spectator had a different editor! Luckily, The Spectator's regular columnists are on hand to declare what they got right – and wrong – throughout the year, and whether they're optimistic for 2025. Rod Liddle, Matthew Parris, Mary Wakefield and Lionel Shriver take us through everything from Trump to trans (03:24). Next: ‘Good riddance 2024' – in his own alternative review of the year, Roger Lewis declares 2024 one to forget. The actor Robert Bathurst voices a special out-loud version of the article, taking us through the year in Roger's typically acerbic style (28:37). Then: the unsung heroes at Christmas time. While most of the country will be sitting down to Christmas dinner, hundreds of people will face an atypical day, not least of all those deployed on the Royal Navy's Continuous At Sea Deterrent mission. Journalist Ali Kefford takes us through the relentless schedule of Royal Navy submariners in the Christmas issue, and explores the strangely isolating but oddly communal experience of Christmas at sea, where the traditions of land meet the peculiarities of life under the water. To explain what it's really like, Ali joins the podcast alongside naval officer Alex Kubara (42:56). And finally: the prescient politics of Tintin. Few characters have captured the spirit of adventure quite like Tintin, the intrepid boy reporter with a knack for stumbling into international intrigue. From the deserts of Arabia to the jungles of South America – and even to the moon – Tintin has been a global icon of curiosity and courage for nearly a century. In the Christmas magazine former foreign correspondent and ‘Tintinologist' Michael Farr celebrates the genius of the Belgian reporter and how politics was never far from Hergé's agenda. To take us through a history of Tintin, and to understand its appeal and influence, we're joined by Michael and another author who took inspiration from the character, Anthony Horowitz (52:18). Throughout the podcast, you will also hear from The Spectator's agony aunt Dear Mary, and the special celebrity guests who have sought her advice in this year's Christmas magazine, including Jacob Rees-Mogg (27:07), James MacMillan (50:51) and Sophie Winkleman (1:09:49). Hosted by William Moore and Lara Prendergast. Produced by Oscar Edmondson and Patrick Gibbons.

A @Christadelphians Video: # Summary Suitability: For more advanced Bible students. This video is an in-depth Bible study and may not be suitable for all. The speaker assumes knowledge of the background when he refers to certain Bible passages. Consequently, it could be discouraging, and we do not wish this upon anyone. There are a wide variety of talks more suitable for someone with limited Bible knowledge. This PRESENTATION explores the biblical account of the Witch of Endor from 1 Samuel 28, examining whether Samuel truly appeared or if the encounter was a deception. It discusses the reactions of the witch and Saul, the nature of familiar spirits, and the implications of seeking counsel from the dead. The analysis concludes that the witch likely did not see Samuel but rather used her skills in ventriloquism and suggestion to deceive Saul, ultimately leading to his downfall. # Highlights -

Roger Lewis comes back to the pod to talk about his small masterpiece of biographical investigation, and fitting testament to a comic genius whose place in British cultural history is now assured. Charles Hawtrey, the skinny one with the granny glasses, was everybody's favourite in the Carry Ons - but who exactly was he? Up to now the man has remained a mystery.Examining Hawtrey's origins as a child star and performer in revue and the Will Hay films, this wonderful little book looks at his career in radio and television, and then to the sad and slow decline of a belligerent recluse on the Kent coast. The high camp exuberance of his acting gave way to bitterness and alcoholism and if you asked Hawtrey for an autograph he'd be more likely to call the police instead.Roger Lewis's short life of Hawtrey opens out like a Chinese box to address such issues as the nature of fame, neglect, loss, sexual confusion, Drambuie, betrayal, marine bandsmen, and fine cambric knickers trimmed with lace and blue ribbon. Its moral would seem to be that you don't necessarily turn out as the person you thought you'd become.Buy HERE.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/writers-on-film. Hosted on Acast.

In 1972 a film was released which is generally regarded as one of Peter Sellers' weakest films - Where Does It Hurt - and joining Tyler to kick it around for an hour or so are Jeremy Limb & Paul Litchfield. Sellers plays administrator Albert T. Hopfnagel at Vista Vue Hospital, described by Sellers' biographer Roger Lewis as being like “every over-the-top insurance salesman and fraudulent television evangelist you pray you'll never meet…. He's a streak of brown lightning… he appears happy and comprehensively spurious as a minor Richard III, bribing and threatening.” From the outset the film adopts a cynical framing of the US medical system. When laid-off construction worker Lester Hammond arrives at Vista Vue seeking a routine check-up he gets more than he bargained for – Hopfnagel runs the hospital like a racketeer, where the age-old medical maxim “First do no harm” has been downgraded to “First bleed them for every dime they've got”. As well as comprehensively trashing the film the chaps turn to other matters of import, such as My Mother The Car, Derren Nesbitt, Doctor Who, the Carry On films and Dick Emery. 10-4!

When it comes to women I find totally compelling, Elizabeth Taylor tops the list for me. Why, you may ask? Well, her Academy Award-winning career and her talent onscreen, for starters. Her beauty, specifically her violet eyes. Her work with AIDS, and her White Diamonds perfume. And, yes, her lifestyle, specifically her eight marriages. But there's only one man she married twice, and that love story, the love story between Elizabeth and Richard Burton, is what we're talking about on the show today. Joining me today is Roger Lewis, the endlessly compelling author of Erotic Vagrancy: Everything About Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, which came out March 26. It took Roger 13 years to write this book, which clocks in at the juiciest 608 pages imaginable. It, in a word, is delicious. Elizabeth knew celebrity well, and by the time she met Richard on the set of Cleopatra in 1961, she had transitioned from a child star to a Hollywood icon. Meanwhile, we have Richard, who is a legend in the theater and a truly brilliant actor, nominated for seven Academy Awards, though he didn't win any. He is much, much more averse to fame than his wife Elizabeth, who essentially helped define modern celebrity. Their two lives converge in Rome, and both are married to other people at the time; they can't resist one another, and in come the private jets, the jewels, the yachts, the furs, and the vodka—so much vodka. Though Roger calls the two the loves of one another's lives, it all goes wrong, with alcoholism, violence, recrimination, and two divorces. Richard is dead at just 58 in 1982; Elizabeth will live another 29 years before dying in 2011. Elizabeth and Richard were better known as “Liz and Dick” by the media, and ultimately starred in 11 films together and were married the first time from 1964 to 1974, and then remarried in 1975; their second marriage once again ended in divorce in 1976, just one year later. Together, in the 1960s the supercouple earned a combined $88 million. Their relationship has been referred to as the “marriage of the century,” and here to escort us on this rollercoaster ride is Roger Lewis, who, in addition to this masterpiece, also wrote The Life and Death of Peter Sellers, which was made into a Golden Globe and Emmy award-winning film by HBO starring Geoffrey Rush and Charlize Theron. I would expect some type of screen adaptation for Erotic Vagrancy, as well—just saying. He has also written a number of other biographies, including one on Laurence Olivier. Prepare through this conversation to be transported to the lavish, almost unbelievable world of Liz and Dick, and strap yourselves in, because it's going to be a bumpy, wild ride.   Erotic Vagrancy: Everything About Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor by Roger Lewis

Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor were a Sixties supercharged couple in an era of supercharged couples. As a pairing they were fantasy figures, impossibly desirable. Liz supple and soft, in perfumes and furs - yet with something demonic and lethal about her. Dick, in turn, with his ravaged, handsome face, looked as though lit by silver moonlight - poised to turn into a wolf. Roger Lewis uses this glamorous and damaged pair as the starting point to tell the story of an age of excess: the freaks and groupies, the private jets and jewels and the yachts sailing in an azure sea; the magnificent bad taste and greed. It is about the clash of worlds: the filth and decay of South Wales and the grandeur and elegance of Old Hollywood; the fantasies we have about film stars and the fantasies the Burtons had about each other.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/writers-on-film.

Summary The study explores the influential figure of Philip the Evangelist in the first century, particularly focusing on his role in Acts chapter 6. The narrative discusses the appointment of seven men to address growing welfare needs within the Jerusalem Ecclesia. It highlights the challenges arising from the rapid growth of the community and the division between Greek-speaking and Hebrew-speaking widows. The apostles entrust the selection of these men to the Ecclesia, emphasizing the importance of spiritual qualifications such as integrity, wisdom, and a good reputation. Philip emerges as a key figure among the chosen seven, displaying qualities of leadership and spirituality. The appointment process involves prayer and the laying on of hands by the apostles, symbolizing the confirmation of their office. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christadelphians-talk/message

On this episode, were were joined by celebrated British cultural biographer Roger Lewis, who's latest book, Erotic Vagrancy, is an extravagant, decade-in-the-making portrait of the ultimate love-hate relationship – the marriage of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. In our conversation, Roger lays bare everything that made these two such an endless subject of fascination for the public; their cinematic successes and more legendary flops; Burton's place in the West End firmament; and of course, their legendary addictions, punch-ups, divorces, hospital bills, and stays in Rome, Paris, New York, London, where chaos followed wherever they went. Roger also spoke to us about his lifelong obsession with British pop culture, having authored biographies of Peter Sellers, Peter O'Toole, and Charles Hawtrey, and why these subjects remain essential to understanding our shared cultural history – and his opinion, should probably be taught at Sixth Form.
