The Law Without the Gospel Makes People Give Up [great article from the Resurgence]

I'm not sure if you know this, but when the author speaks about the "law," he is not talking about the laws of the land. He's talking about the laws of the Bible. Following Jesus is about seeing how Jesus fulfilled those Biblical laws.

That dang picture of "Free eBooks" keeps popping up on my submitted links.

Wait.. was that a joke?

Because I wanted to give an introduction for reformed-minded thinkers, so that I could get some feedback from their perspectives.

And I think you probably have a good point about it being called "open futurism" instead. But "open theism" is the more known term. And it doesn't necessarily negate it's theological propositions either.

Exactly. Bell would simply not stand clear on anything. He was finally corned at the end, though, by his own questioning. He was asking if the other guy believed that God would ever stop offering repentance to someone after a certain amount of time. In other words, do you believe God would infinitely punish a 17 year old without ever providing a way to out?

That right there solidifies his idea.

Thanks. That was a great podcast, so was the one with Rob Bell.

Okay, so which track is it? I can't find it in the LONG list of other podcasts. Which number is it?

You found it hard to understand what I wrote? Well, lol, I'm not sure I understand what you're referring to.

Totally understand. There's a difference on writing about a subject when it comes to published work, authoritative work, testimony, devotional, theological, philosophical, etc.

But so that you know, I've been in ministry for long enough to have good experience in the subjects I write about. Also, I'm nearly finished with my BA, and I have a solid rapport with my professors (as well as the church community).

Thanks for your input, it matters!
