“Untold millions are still untold.” -John Wesley

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

There is a “last day” (John 6:40) of this “present evil age” (Galations 1:4) before “the age to come” (Mark 10:30). Real points on the horizon of time. -Stephen Venable

Job to God: “I don’t know how to process my pain over the loss of my children.” God to Job: “I know what you mean. Me too.” -Bob Sorge

"Show me your friends and I'll show you your future." // When you look at your friends, do they remind you of Jesus? -Joshua Hawkins

          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 

The city that was the apostle's source of continual grief (Romans 9:2) will one day be the joy of all the earth (Psalm 48:2) -Stuart Greaves

Your faith in the blood of the cross gives God the kingdom capital He needs to present you faultless before His throne with great glory. -Bob Sorge

Referring to His covenant to Abraham, the Lord used the strongest phrase possible: (min olam v’ad olam) “from everlasting to everlasting." -Joel Richardson

The forerunner message is not eschatological because it goes beyond the ‘simple gospel’ - rather the gospel is inherently eschatological. -Stephen Venable

Jesus and the apostles when it came to salvation never said, "pray a prayer." They did say shift your confidences and allegiance (repent,faith). -Stuart Greaves

if the gospel is true, it must be preached. if a Day has been fixed, the nations must be warned. these are imperatives, not opinions. -Stephen Venable

If loving God is really the most important thing in our life, we will quit fighting against the ways He helps that love grow by purifying us. -Shelly Hundley

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

"We should never be content with anything less than what is described as possible to the Christian in the New Testament." - Lloyd-Jones

Devotions are barren because we're barren. Prayer is hard because we're hard. Worship is dry because we're dry. God is never the problem. -Derek Kistner
