I don’t know how NT can come up with the conclusion that Paul wrote this letter before going to Jerusalem in act chapter 15. Because in this letter Paul refers to the fight that he has with those who are trying to steal Christian liberty or our liberty in Christ. Not for one hour Would they let these people promote their doctrines of works. Paul does say that he met secretly with the pillars of the church Peter James and John who were in Jesus’s inner circle. I don’t see how he could come up with this conclusion that Paul had already written the letter to the Galatians before he went to Jerusalem and attended the meeting we read about an act chapter 15.

I think I will take issue with NT,s definition of a Judaizer. Later Paul writes about how he had to confront Peter with his hypocrisy and being intimidated by the party of James. Who were Jews and I assumed that these were the Judaizer Paul was referring to.

Galatians is my favorite book. Many years ago I memorized the whole book and could quote it by heart for nearly a year. But it became burdensome to try to repeat it so often so as to remember all of it that way. But it has profound influence my views on the Bible

Awesome one of my favorite January Series

As an ex-evangelical, I no longer have to harmonize the teaching of the Jerusalem church (“men from James”) with Paul’s radically anti-works version of Christianity. Wright’s take on Galatians fits the local situation, but not why the Jerusalem Christians would come all the way there in the first place, with a pragmatic solution (circumcision) to a problem which didn’t concern them as Jews. No, they WERE bringing “another Gospel” - another kind of salvation, requiring Christians to observe all that Jesus had taught them to DO to prepare for the coming of His new Kingdom. The traditional view of Galatians fits everything else Paul wrote to everyone, everywhere; namely, the absolute chasm between being justified by faith, versus justification by works.

13 January 2025 No value can be rightly set for THIS EXPLICATION and for N. T. WRIGHT's diligent jealousy FOR. THE. HOLY. SCRIPTURES. Like that other Thomas who has been so wrongly accused in Christendom, HE STAYS AT DUE DILIGENCE to every pronoun, article, case, voice, person, and antecedent! The Scripture of history is not a drive-through menu. Once laid on table, even spoon-fed, one🌹MUST🌹 CHEW🌹 FOR 🌹ONESELF!

This articulates his view on Galatians and the “New Perspective” so well. One key part of understanding scripture is knowing what questions are being asked and answered in the text, in context of the original audience. When we assume Paul is answering questions we are asking, rather than addressing issues in the letter’s context, we by definition are misunderstanding the text.

It’s not far off from then to now when it comes to poltical points of climate change. A storm comes through and destroys a state and the first thought is the need to appease nature with taxes! Someone is not paying their share, someone is not going electrical, even Tesla owners act upper class. Crazy

NT Wright has confirmed my direction to study this way. I somewhat came to this “naturally” and have been blessed that I wasn’t alone through him and David Pawson. The more I reflect at our modern Christian setup, it seems odd for reformed teachers to shout Sola Scriptura!! but constantly refer to outside sources of late reformers as if it was doctrine and even go as far as making denominations after man. Pure hypocrisy

Jesus did not predict Judas would betray him. Judas was supposed to be one of the 12 judges in the kingdom.

Love the January Series

He is a "pretendian." 😊😊😊

These days we're all traumatized

2 Corinthians 5 New International Version Awaiting the New Body 5 For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. 2 Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, 3 because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. 4 For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 5 Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. 6 Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we live by faith, not by sight. 8 We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. 9 So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. Are you saying that Paul's thoughts here are "poisoned" with Platonism? I think we all understand that our work here on earth involves working with Christ in the process of sanctification and in mirroring or reflecting Christ in this world, but, what Christian does not long to stop seeing in a mirror dimly but to see Christ face to face. To know in full; as we have been fully known.?????

Would I be able to insert part of Eugene's 'discerning religion in a storm?' I hav written a book 'Seasons,' and want to insert what I have transposed from the talk he gave on that Jonah theme. Should you agree, I will gladly submit what I have written for decide one way or the other. Thanks

The PITS research is so fascinating and I think (as a white woman) meaningfully addressing this trauma should be the primary work of White Americans.

The obsession with calvin doesn't please God. Leave out man --- let God be true and every man a liar. God absolute sovereignty is ALL through scriptures. We don't want any less

Are Calvinist's overweight because they don't have free will?

The understanding that impacted the then world up to ten million people coming to Christ in less than a century under an unending flow and ebb of persecution.

Paul knew Judaic letters laws ultimately were to save souls of Luke, Sylvanus or half bred Timothy so moulded Christ's message reached each one?!

Segundo Eusébio de Cesárea, esse Pedro, que foi repreendido por Paulo, não é O Apóstolo Pedro.

Hi, what is a worship apprentice???

Facist.

You should do a video on all the memorial trees

good stuff bob!

Allow me to play the Medieval devil's advocate: For example, a few questions on death: 1. What happens to the soul upon death? 2. Is there a "limbo?" 3. Is there suffering there? Purification? 4. If not, what about those souls which are deemed worthy of something glorious; can they not intercede on our behalf? etc.

What is the gentleman name that’s being interviewed?

What I needed to hear 9 months ? later

This sentence is going to introduce the next sentence which is going to introduce the main thing that my comment is about. This sentence would like to proudly introduce the next sentence, in the form of a question, which will stun you with its wit and insight. Why is it that American Universities always have someone to introduce the person who's going to introduce the main speaker?

I worked over 12 years with autistic children, the professor seems delightful, but he definitely in a completely different category than the children I worked with, not sure how he was diagnosed with autism. This is very fascinating to me, maybe he is in the Asperger‘s Syndrome form of autism. I’m sure much has changed in diagnosing autism over the years. God bless.

Wonderful content thoroughly thought through. †

My only response to this video is "WOW"! Mark Charles tells it like it is and speaks VOLUME to truth, history, and justice!✊

Excellent. Thank you for putting it all so clearly.

I was nearly or almost falling dow in the liberalism teology when i came a cross with his books and that was so helpful for me to overcome the Germany theology that i was usted.

I will never be a Christian.

how would u reconcile that in revelation, the earth will pass away? i see what you're saying about God's heart to reconcile all things. but it is clear to me that the cosmos would be renewed, while it is people that are redeemed. i mean, can nature "repent"? anyway i see you are based in michigan. let's see if we have a chance to meet up =))

Tom and Rowan Williams,ex-Archbidhop of Canterbury have brought me nearer to a return to my childhood Anglicanism then any other apologist

I was raised and suffered as a Christian. I prayed about the Jewish Holidays, observe them, eat cheesburgers and circumcise my males.i am baptised into The True Vine that heals The Nations. I see the wicked no more. Anywhere i look, they cant be found. All i see is very good. Shalom

What's this obsession in trying to interpret the Bible perfectly? Even if you could, where do you go from there? What is the ultimate objective? Does it lead to the kind of spiritual awakening so transformational that it can dramatically change the world for the better? Will it awaken the divine in all of us hence put to rest *once and for all* our suffering? Will it provide to leaders around the world the kind of wisdom that will put an end to wars, injustice, and the rape of the earth? If not, then to hell with all these interpretations!! It just becomes an end in itself i.e. another lame-ass interpretation that is reified as an absolute truth hence turned into a dehumanizing object of idolatry. Let's face it! You got nothing on God!! Why? Because when you say God is a deity, you are already fucked. Such a God is beyond all categories of thought. The human mind is incapable of conceiving it. All you have are beliefs, concepts, ideas, as to who YOU think God is. That's what we've been going for centuries- believing in endless interpretations of God. To hell with that!

Is this a Christian video? I'm done. Why would you take on the religion of the Colonizers?

It is not Moses Law. It's ELOHIM (God)who gave the Torah ( Instructions ) to Moses. Some law, singular applies to us and some laws do not apply to us. "Do not think that I have come to destroy the Torah or the Prophets but to fulfill them". Matthew 5
