Salvation 2.0: Part 3.15: David Bentley Hart’s “God, Creation, and Evil,” Part 8
Has Paul prophesied that the Jews will eventually be saved? The hard question is whether God has promised that the Jews will enter the Kingdom sometime in the future. N.T. Wright says no — It is at this point, of … Continue reading

The Role of Women at Wineskins
I’ve begun a brief series at Wineskins responding to Matthew Morine’s article in the September issue of the Gospel Advocate available at “The Feminist Agenda Within the Churches of Christ.” The gist of Matthew’s argument is that the giftedness of … Continue reading

Salvation 2.0: Part 3.14: David Bentley Hart’s “God, Creation, and Evil,” Part 7
The fate of the Jews Now, I suppose I should address whether the Jews are a special case. And the great theologians differ. But I think we can lay a few principles down pretty clearly, even if we can’t answer … Continue reading

Salvation 2.0: Part 3.13: David Bentley Hart’s “God, Creation, and Evil,” Part 6

Salvation 2.0: Part 3.12: David Bentley Hart’s “God, Creation, and Evil,” Part 5
N. T. Wright on God’s solution for evil I read N. T. Wright’s Evil and the Justice of God a few years ago, and I was disappointed. I just didn’t find the answers very satisfying. After all, I’m a chronic-pain suffering … Continue reading

Salvation 2.0: Part 3.11: David Bentley Hart’s “God, Creation, and Evil,” Part 4
The fate of those without God before the Resurrection of Jesus This may be overkill, but the question few people address in these sorts of discussions is the fate of Gentiles before the resurrection. Some of these people were doubtlessly … Continue reading
