The Third Moment: January 2007
http://lutheranguest.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 30, 2007. Next week I'm starting a new ministry in a local prison on Monday nights. I'm involved in a parachurch. Ministry on Tuesday nights at a maximum-security prison about seventy miles from home. I'm very thankful that the organization provided me the platform to get back involved in prison ministry after about a decade off (mainly to get my academic career established). Only in comparison to other academics. So please pray for me, the men, and the other volunteer. Last night was my...

The Third Moment: April 2006
http://lutheranguest.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 27, 2006. Pentecost and the Ascension. Jesus' sole response at his trial before the Sanhedrin was that "You have said it; nevertheless I tell you, hereafter you shall see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of power, coming on the clouds of heaven" (Mt 26.64). So both OT references in Mt 26.64 refer to Jesus' ascension and enthronement at God's right hand. Enter Pentecost. Peter expressly links the giving of the Spirit on Pentecost with Jesus' ascension: "Therefore having been ex...

Friday, July 28, 2006. Hays' "Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul". I was pretty disappointed in Richard B. Hays' book,. Echoes of Scripture in the Letters of Paul. Not that there weren't insights here and there, but I thought the two big points were, respectively, obvious and wrong (or at least pretty wrong). The second big argument Hays advances is that Paul's letters are "ecclesiocentric" rather than "Christocentric.". Posted by Jim at 9:38 PM. Monday, July 17, 2006. The thing is that Christ ch...

The Third Moment: September 2006

Saturday, September 30, 2006. Raising up children to Abraham from stones. John the Baptist said, "do not suppose that you can say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father'; for I say to you that from these stones God is able to raise up children to Abraham" (Mt 3.9, Lk 3.8). I've always taken John's statement to be that, if God chose, he could do a miraculous work and turn the stones themselves into children of Abraham. And maybe that is what John is saying. Posted by Jim at 9:16 AM. First, this is...

Friday, October 20, 2006. Resurrection" as Spiritual as well as Physical. NT Wright emphasizes throughout his books that "resurrection" in Jesus' day had only to do with a new physical existence and never applies to non-bodily revivification. For example, in. What St. Paul Really Said. Physical, in some sense) which is. God is not the God of the dead but of the living.' And when the multitudes heard this, they were astonished at his teaching.". I don't think this should surprise us (or first-century Jews...
