• Jesus’ Death and the Temple in the Gospel of Mark

  
  The Theological Ramblings of an Anglican Ordinand — Authority: 411
  The Death of Jesus in the Gospel of MarkThe purpose of my last few months of research is to explore, within the narrative of the gospel of Mark, the link between Jesus’ death and the Temple.  This link is clearly to be seen at the surface level of the passion narratives where the  Temple and [...]

  Between — Authority: 124
  Philip Ritchie tagged me with this meme on which topic lots of fellow bloggers have already posted (see here and here , for example).

  De Regnis Duobus: Cult, Culture, and the Christian's Dual Citizenship — Authority: 412

• Evil and the Justice of God

  
  The Eagle & Child — Authority: 120
  From N.T. Wright’s Evil and the Justice of God : It is not enough to say that God will eventually make a new world in which there will be no more pain and crying; that does scant justice to all the evil that has gone before. We cannot get to the full solution to the problem of evil by mere progress, as though, ...

• “Defined by the worship of God” N.T. Wright

  
  Tolle Lege — Authority: 128
  “Christians are not defined by skin colour, by gender, by geographical location, or even, shockingly, by their good behaviour. Nor are they defined by the particular type of religious feelings they may have. They are defined in terms of the God they worship . That’s why we say the Creed at the heart of our ...

• N.T. Wright Interprets “Flesh” for Everyone

  
  New Leaven — Authority: 545
  In two recent posts, we explored the meaning of sarx (“flesh” in ESV, NRSV, and “sinful nature” in T/NIV and NLT) as used by Paul.  We even had Wayne Leman, a professional linguist and translator of Better Bibles , going back and forth with Kyle Phillilps here . Well, I decided to consult a Paulinist on ...

• Is N.T. Wright smacking down Jim West or what?

  
  metalepsis — Authority: 103
  In a quote from N.T. Wrights short rebuttal to the CT piece that claims he is at fault for the protestant exodus to Rome, Wright has this to say: "It reminds me of the fine old German NT scholar Heinrich Schlier, who found that the only way to be a Protestant was to be a Bultmannian, so, because he couldn’t ...

• Wright talks about Philemon & Frye talks about Jesus and Women

  
  The Eagle & Child — Authority: 120
  Go  here for a remarkable  sermon by N.T. Wright on  Paul’s letter to Philemon (there is both an audio and a video option–it’s just over 14 minutes long).  I just read Philemon a couple of times last week (it’s very short).  Afterwards I thought, “OK, Paul is embracing this former slave as a ...

• Michael Horton’s Review of N.T. Wright’s “Justification”

  
  Adding my views to the mix — Authority: 106
  Michael Horton’s Review of N.T. Wright’s “Justification” This is really an evenhanded review of Tom Wrights Book on Justification. The advantage of Michael Hortons comments is that he is really immersed in the writings of Calvin and is familiar with Vos and Ridderbos (I do not say that I am, other than ...

  The second of N.T. Wrights four "aspects" to the Pauline doctrine of justification is that of covenant (the others being lawcourt , eschatology, and Christology). In Justification he writes: The key passages [on justification] in Romans and Galatians are all drawing on, and claiming to fulfill, two central ...

• Wright on Justification, Part One: The Divine Lawcourt

  
  De Regnis Duobus: Cult, Culture, and the Christian's Dual Citizenship — Authority: 412
  In his book Justification , N.T. Wright attempts to approach his doctrinal topic from four directions: lawcourt, covenant, eschatology, and Christology. These four aspects of justification, Wright argues, must be held together by the New Testament scholar in order to understand "what Saint Paul really said." . ...

• The Will of God

  
  I Don't Know Where the Angels Sleep — Authority: 112
  Its always kinda awkward whenever someone in a conversation begins talking about "the Will of God." For one thing, these people often seem to be speaking with far too much boldness in relation to their ability to actually discern the mind of God. Seems like such conversations need to be peppered with lots of ...
