This series has helped us to see that we can enjoy God’s creational gifts without guilt. But God also gives us eschatological gifts that prepare us for our heavenly home. So what happens when we have an over-realized or under-realized eschatology? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Eric Landry, Justin Holcomb, and Bob Hiller talk about life between the “now” and the “not yet,” considering the role of virtue in the Christian life and how the law gives shape to the good life as we’re conformed to the image of Christ.

Quote:

“We have the past ministry of Jesus, the current ministry of Jesus, and the future ministry of Jesus. There’s an overlap between this world and the world to come. That’s what we mean by already something that has happened that is new—the ministry of Jesus, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the forgiveness of sins, all of that—but there’s more to come.”

The Given Life

The Given Life

Sometimes the church hinders our experience of the good life by packing our schedules, heaping on burdens, or trying to be cool and relevant. But the church can also help us cultivate the good life by pointing us to a kingdom that we receive—not build. In this episode of White Horse Inn, Eric Landry, Justin […]

No Room for Post-Millennialist Optimism: Considering the Saints and the City of Chaos in Isaiah 24–27

Christians today join the saints before them in searching the Bible to understand what exactly God promises us about the Last Days.
