Only one Man gets into heaven based on His goodness. The rest of us get in bowing to that Man. - Derek Kistner

O, do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men! Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks! Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle. But you shall be a miracle. Every day you shall wonder at yourself, at the richness of life which has come to you by the grace of God. -Phillips Brooks

Psalm 21:1 "The king shall have joy in Your strength, O LORD; and in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!" If my joy is based on my circumstances or sense of well-being, then it will constantly fluctuate. Joy is based, not on something in me, but on something in God, I rejoice in the magnificence of God’s strength (not mine). -Bob Sorge

"Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me.Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous Spirit." Psalm 51.10-12 Our mood/attitude is directly affected by our sin. Holiness makes us happy. Sin spoils everything. It's really that simple. -Joshua Hawkins

Lack of clarity and simplicity concerning the idea of justification is largely due to a failure in understanding the forensic nature of the day of the Lord. We are not justified from a theological concept of human depravity into a nebulous theological system of atonement. Rather, we are justified from real sins that have done real damage to a real creation before a real Judge in anticipation of a real day of judgment. That day will not be “like” a law court; it will be a real courtroom, with real charges brought against real transgressions, which have really angered a real King and Judge. -John P Harrigan

Can we not accept the straightforward, face-value teaching of the Old Testament? As a whole, it is clearly apocalyptic, messianic, and Israelitic. In the context of a new heavens and new earth, these things constitute the “glory” of the age to come. Nowhere in the New Testament is this glory questioned; rather it is universally assumed and affirmed (cf. Matt. 19:28; 24:30; 25:31; Rom. 8:18; 1 Cor. 15:43; 2 Cor. 4:17; Eph. 1:18; Phil. 3:21; Col. 3:4; 2 Thess. 1:10; 2 Tim. 2:10; Titus 2:13; 1 Peter 4:13; 5:10; Jude 24). The Messiah came the first time to suffer and bear sin. Why would this simple fact alter the Jewish hope?
The various Christoplatonic eschatologies held throughout the church’s history inherently contradict the Old Testament’s unequivocal vision of divine glory. Rather, the New Testament affirms the hope of the Old Testament, arguing simply that God sent his Messiah first as a sacrifice for the sin of humanity before sending his Messiah again to execute judgment upon the sin of humanity (cf. Acts 3:18–26; Rom. 5:1–9; Heb. 10:12–13). Therefore Jew and Gentile alike must repent of their sins, accept God’s predetermined atonement as the means of escaping divine wrath, and thus together inherit the glory of eternal life. Though lacking the theological sophistication of the modern academy and its inaugurational refinement, I find this to be the common-sense approach to the Scriptures that most reasonably corresponds to the apostolic witness in its premodern, first-century Jewish context. -John P Harrigan

I think we do not attach sufficient importance to the restoration of the Jews. We do not think enough about it. But certainly, if there is anything promised in the Bible it is this. I imagine you cannot read the Bible without seeing clearly that there is to be an actual restoration of the Children of Israel. -C. H. Spurgeon

The New Testament seeks no new revelation of the kingdom of God, but rather preserves the simple expectation of a Jewish messianic kingdom. The New Testament is primarily concerned with the means of attaining the hope of the kingdom (cf. Acts 26:7; Rom. 9:30; Phil. 3:11; etc.). The new covenant is concerned with the sacrifice of the cross, in contrast to the sacrifices of the old covenant (cf. Rom. 3:25; Heb. 8–10; 1 Peter 3:18; etc.). The “promised eternal inheritance” (Heb. 9:15) of the kingdom is never in question (cf. 1 Cor. 15:50; 2 Tim. 4:1; 2 Peter 1:11; etc.). The New Testament presents a straightforward account of the suffering of the Messiah as an atonement for the forgiveness of sins before the coming of the Messiah in glory for the establishment of his Israelitic kingdom (cf. Luke 24:26; Heb. 9:28; 1 Peter 1:11). -John P Harrigan

The attempt to argue for a purely “spiritual” kingdom in this age, in contrast to a “visibly manifest” kingdom in the age to come, is Platonism at its finest. There is no immaterial world seeking to manifest itself in materiality. Rather, God sits enthroned over the heavens and earth, waiting in mercy to judge the living and the dead. This age remains this age (Gal. 1:4; Titus 2:12), essentially characterized by the cross (Luke 24:47; Acts 3:19–21); and the age to come remains the age to come (cf. Eph. 1:21; Heb. 2:5), essentially characterized by judgment (Acts 10:42; 2 Tim. 4:1). Where in the Scriptures does the messianic kingdom ever precede the day of judgment? Rather, divine judgment always initiates the kingdom (cf. Ps. 2; Isa. 24; Dan. 7; Amos 9; Hab. 2–3; Zeph. 2–3; Zech. 12–14; Mal. 3–4). -John P Harrigan

There isn't a more kind message than this: "Repent, renounce sin, follow Jesus." The prophets of old, John the Baptist, Jesus, the early apostles—they all had the same message: "Repent." I can think of no greater peril than a lost world encountering a church unwilling to say it's lost or how to be found. -Derek Kistner

Though God reveals himself through different names in the OT—e.g., “LORD-Hosts/Armies” (Heb. yhvh ṣĕbāʾôt; cf. 1 Sam. 1:11; Ps. 24:10; 80:4; Isa. 1:24; 6:5; Jer. 9:15; 48:1; Hos. 12:5; Amos 3:13; Mic. 4:4; Hag. 2:6; Zech. 1:3); “LORD-Shepherd” (Heb. yhvh rāʿâ; cf. Gen. 49:24; Ps. 23:1; 80:1; Ezek. 34:2); “LORD-Heals” (Heb. yhvh rāpāʾ; cf. Ex. 15:26; Jer. 3:22; Isa. 30:26; Ps. 103:3); “LORD-Jealous” (Heb. yhvh qannāʾ; cf. Ex. 20:5; 34:14; Deut. 4:24; Josh. 24:19); “God-Almighty” (Heb. ʾēl šadday; cf.

Gen. 14:18ff.; Ps. 7:17; 47:2; 57:2; Dan. 7:18ff.); “God-Everlasting” (Heb. ʾēl ʿôlām; cf. Gen. 21:33; Ps. 90:1ff.; Jer. 10:10; Isa. 26:4); “God-Living” (Heb. ʾēl ḥay; cf. Deut. 5:26; Josh. 3:10; Ps. 42:2; 84:2; Jer. 10:10); “God-Salvation” (Heb. ʾēl yēšaʿ; cf. 1 Chron. 16:35; Ps. 65:5; 79:9; 85:4) [as well as some infrequent names, e.g., “Lord-Peace” (Judg. 6:24), “Lord-Provide” (Gen. 22:14), “Lord-Righteousness” (Jer. 23:6; 33:16), etc.]
—no name is more prominent and central to the revelation of his nature and character than “LORD/God-Israel” (Ex. 5:1; 24:10; 32:27; 34:23; Num. 16:9; Josh. 7:13,19f.; 8:30; 9:18f.; 10:40,42; 13:14,33; 14:14; 22:16,24; 24:2,23; Judg. 4:6; 5:3,5; 6:8; 11:21,23; 21:3; Ruth 2:12; 1 Sam. 1:17; 2:30; 5:7f.,10f.; 6:3,5; 10:18; 14:41; 20:12; 23:10f.; 25:32,34; 2 Sam. 7:27; 12:7; 23:3; 1 Kings 1:30,48; 8:15,17,20,23,25f.; 11:9,31; 14:7,13; 15:30; 16:13,26,33; 17:1,14; 22:53; 2 Kings 9:6; 10:31; 14:25; 18:5; 19:15,20; 21:12; 22:15,18; 1 Chron. 4:10; 5:26; 15:12,14; 16:4,36; 17:24; 22:6; 23:25; 24:19; 28:4; 29:10; 2 Chron. 2:12; 6:4,7,10,14,16f.; 11:16; 13:5; 15:4,13; 20:19; 29:7,10; 30:1,5; 32:17; 33:16,18; 34:23,26; 36:13; Ezra 1:3; 3:2; 4:1,3; 5:1; 6:14,21f.; 7:6,15; 8:35; 9:4,15; Ps. 41:13; 59:5; 68:8,35; 69:6; 72:18; 106:48; Isa. 17:6; 21:10,17; 24:15; 29:23; 37:16,21; 41:17; 45:3,15; 48:1f.; 52:12; Jer. 7:3,21; 9:15; 11:3; 13:12; 16:9; 19:3,15; 21:4; 23:2; 24:5; 25:15,27; 27:4,21; 28:2,14; 29:4,8,21,25; 30:2; 31:23; 32:14f.,36; 33:4; 34:2,13; 35:13,17ff.; 37:7; 38:17; 39:16; 42:9,15,18; 43:10; 44:2,7,11,25; 45:2; 46:25; 48:1; 50:18; 51:33; Ezek. 8:4; 9:3; 10:19f.; 11:22; 43:2; 44:2; Zeph. 2:9; Mal. 2:16; cf.
