N.T. Wright - The Puzzles of the Cross

Thank God for this Man of God teaching the scriptures right🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

“This Is My Father’s World” is a wonderful song! It’s been a favorite for decades.😊

Awesome, we need more and more of this in our churches, thanks for sharing Dr. Wright’s lecture.

[@KarlsKronicles]

Great Stuff Professor Wright. The atonement of the cross shows that God is both Just and Merciful. Instead of killing our first parents that day, He instead waits thousands of years till the cross with this question over His head that He was not a Just God, but rather merciful. Like Satan declaring to God at the tree in the garden, "You can be Just or merciful, but not both." Jesus (Rom 3:24-28) on the cross propitiates the cross and by it declares that if we will exercise our faith in that act and in Him, we won't have to die, He (as God) will take the loss. Thereby showing that God was just and the justifier of those who would believe in Jesus and what He did. His gospel (our ministry of Reconcilation) has power because of God's Justice. (Rom 1:16-17). It is what has defeated Satan and expunge sin from the cosmos and thereby restore all things, which is the message of the book of Revelation. God Bless.

It became obvious to me that the simple messages I heard in childhood were insufficient to explain the various issues involved in the cross and resurrection. This teaching helps me think more about the additional dimensions. Thank you.

God in Christ enters into a world saturated with violence, a world in which people are victimized again and again-the poor neglected, women beaten and raped, children abused, the earth plundered, prophets murdered- so that the order of our society and our world may not be disturbed. When Jesus disturbs that order- announces God’s forgiveness of sinners, promises the future for the poor, welcomes outcasts and strangers, calls all to repentance and a new way of life characterized by love of God and others- when Jesus does this in a world built from its foundation stone of violence, then it is no arbitrary religious doctrine but profoundest truth that Jesus MUST suffer, the boundless love of God must clash with a world built on hostility and violence. As the risen Jesus explains to the disciple on the way to Emmaus, did not the Christ have to suffer all this and enter into his glory (Luke 24:26)…. Jesus lived and died for us all. But God raised the crucified Jesus and make him the chief cornerstone of a new humanity that no longer espouses the way of violence, that no longer needs scapegoat , that no longer wills to live at the expense of victims, that no longer worships a bloodthirsty God, that is no longer interested in legitimation of violence, but that follows Jesus in the power of a new Spirit.... Faith seeking understanding, Daniell L. Migliore (page 159)

[@kennethfurr7397]

I tend to think when things are put to rights, when the new heavens and new earth come in fullness, it will be the way things were always meant to be as seen in that beautiful picture in Genesis 1 and Isaiah 11. No violence to be found among humans or nonhumans. All of creation will stop groaning. May it come quickly. The fall of Babylon will be welcomed indeed!

6 Through this chapter, we will walk in a desert without landmarks. But we will go up to the end, because the Angel of God is our guide. God said to Israel: "Behold, I send an angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place that I have prepared for thee". Daniel, Ezekiel, Revelation and many books of the Bible are stories of symbols and riddles. And just as the Bible ends in symbols and riddles, the Church will also end in an atmosphere of symbols and riddles. 5 Jehovah God has given me this chapter on dreams and visions for the Saints. And like the Bible, this sermon will serve many peoples. And at the appointed time, it will place the Church in a new dimension. And I am telling you about it so that you may be prepared for it. 7 I wanted to give this sermon in a single chapter like Kacou 146, but having two different aspects, I thought it good to give it in two parts. I am going to speak here of the instructions on prophetism for a return to the original faith, and then I will speak of dreams and visions in a second chapter. It will be like the two Tables of the Law of Moses or the two Testaments of the Bible. They will be dependent on each other like a bow and its arrow. Dreams and visions are the arrows of prophetism.

5 And we can see that the shadow of the midnight Cry will never cease to hover over Branhamist councils and synods. And we also see that now, each circular letter of Ewald Frank talks about the midnight Cry or tries to contradict what the midnight Cry says. See for example the circular letter of December 2007… 6 And talking about the midnight Cry, Ewald Franck says that, those towards whom the foolish virgins will go to buy the oil according to Matthew 25:9, are evangelical churches because those ones talk only about money in their vigils and gatherings. It is a good revelation for a Branhamist because Branhamists look upon Catholics, Protestants and evangelicals as Christians and can let those ones lay their hands upon them to receive their anointing, that is oils but the littlest of all those who believe in me will never do that. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen”].You see? 7 Who are those who sell oil according to Matthew 25:9? I do not know and I will not make any research to know it but the day when the Angel of April 24, 1993 will reveal it to me, it will be an eternal truth that no one will be able to contradict. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen”].

The cross paid for the total price of sin, you will be HIS savior transforming judgment into the fullness of creation

[@jeongwoon76]

Bible is not telling us abstract philoshophical concepts, we must read it from the very beginning of the story, how God of Abraham came to earth to save his people from egypt, and finally made in flesh, our King resurected, son of God, our God, for all peaple Gentiles and Jews. Gospels only openes up when we strart from language of tabernacle, of Moise's cosmovision, abandoning platonic one. Even history of Jesus on earth must be unveiled by his Resurection, point of Apostole's view, time from then the New Covenant is written. There's the timeline Paul's met Jesus, same timeline for us, gentile, there we meet Jesus resurected.

22 And when preaching, people thought that Hilaire was a heretic, he even had to go into exile for a time to save his life. And it was such a man who was the master of Saint Martin of Tours. You see? Christians put marriage, children, work before the work of God. They seek to know what their children will become on earth before they think about the Kingdom of Heaven and if the entry into the Heaven must impose some sacrifices on them like the Apostles and the saints of the past, then they do not want it. They want the Heaven like a Christmas present. They want a Christianity according to the human pattern. Apart from what you do for the Word of God, all the rest is vanity and human folly. And apart from what a prophet messenger reveals in a generation, all the rest is only vanity and human folly. [Ed: Thecongregationsays,“Amen!”]. [Kc.6v18] [Kc.15v18] [Kc.16v31] [Kc.19v59]

[@jakemarks633]

Wright has misunderstood penal substitution and the significance of Christ's shed blood. When dealing with this he never engages with scholars like Leon Morris. Wright maintains that the shed blood represents cleansing rather than a life laid down in death.

[@bobpolo2964]

Why do you disagree with that?

[@johnstewart7025]

Jesus was God so his blood did cleanse the world. But he was also a man, so his murder was a sin. And his resurrection was a miracle opening up a new creation.

[@djedjecloviszogba-em1hh]

1 Bem, esta manhã eu gostaria de falar do tema: Deus realmente disse? Observem bem Génesis 3:1-6! Primeiro, em Gênesis 2:16 e 17, Deus ordenou a Adão para não comer da árvore do conhecimento do bem e do mal. A Eva não estava lá e foi Adão que pregou isso para ela. Mas quando a serpente veio, é para ela que ela se dirigiu. A serpente e a Eva conversaram um pouco e abordaram o assunto do pecado de sexo a fim de cometer adultério com ela. A serpente falou-lhe de relação sexual e elas cometeram adultério, e o sangue fluiu diante da Eva e trouxe a maldição na terra. É por isso, foi o sangue que Abel apresentou e no fim dos tempos, o Senhor Jesus Cristo apresentou o seu próprio sangue que é o sangue mais precioso, e aquilo apagou o pecado de todos os escolhidos de geração em geração, assim como os meus, eu o profeta Kacou Philippe, que vos fala. [Ed: A congregação diz: «Amém!»]. [Kc.23v7] 2 Portanto, no princípio, era pelo sexo que a maldição atingiu a terra. E você não tem o direito de dormir com uma mulher que você não casou junto dos seus pais. [Ed: A congregação diz: «Amém!»]. Satanás estava bem ciente disso, mas vejam a sua reação: Satanás disse: «O que? Deus disse: vocês não comerão?» Deus disse no versículo 17 de Génesis 2: «Pois no dia em que comerás dela, certamente morrerás». Mas a serpente disse em Gênesis 3:4 «vocês não morrerão certamente». E isso é o que as pessoas não entendem hoje. Pouco importa a verdade que pode sair da boca de um líder católico, protestante, evangélico ou branhamista, o problema é que ele não é o profeta da geração e não é ele que vocês devem ouvir. [Ed: A congregação diz: «Amém!»]. E este foi o erro da Eva. Finalmente, a Eva duvidou e comeu, e os seus olhos abriram-se e ela teve muitos sonhos e visões como um profeta, um Deus. E o que aconteceu no princípio, é o que acontecerá no fim dos tempos.

1 Brethren, concerning the adversaries of the Message, at the appointed time, God Himself will answer them. [Ed: the congregation says, "Amen!"]. They are people who will become nothing on the earth. 2 When God will send again a true prophet on earth, his ministry will be well identified in the Bible. He will start preaching his Message, starting first with his call and commission and he shall increase and I shall decrease! [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen”]. 3 There is one named Joseph Colman in New York but William Branham said that no messenger would ever rise again out of the American areas. Yet, this Joseph Colman sets himself up as an African in connection with the midnight Cry, according to his followers. He would better go and look for his country in Africa because New York is not an African country. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen”].

Sinner, the least of these, Covid 19 responses in quarantine was the fullness of the two greatest commandments. You are the only generations to pass this test globally. You had done this in every state you were in, belief, sexual preference, religion or disbelief. You brought the world to peace continuously from February to June in 2020. Changing the fire from heaven and famine poorer out on the earth. The pendently rendered unto the fallen and the fallen were judged as Christ judged you. This answered the desire of the FATHER that not one should perish. Revelation said that to those who have the victory I will give you the power the Father gave to Me in the same way and those who keep the victory I will also give them the morning Star ( devil) son of the morning star Israel 🇮🇱. Salvation will be with the hearts of man. You are caught up in the rapture, this would have been way different had you not. Now as you surround the temple Israel 🇮🇱 to gather them to peace the fire that is being poorer out on the earth is a holy cleansing/ refining fire which will when the world is at peace take us to the new world. The judgment you have placed on humanity is that same judgment HE has placed upon you, perfect victory

[@AlphaKingofGlory]

Is anything to difficult for God

[@jakemarks633]

Before Christ's return, Christians do indeed look forward to going to heaven. This is because that is where Christ is. Wright does NOT accept the imputation of Christ's righteousness. He does not accept that God the Father punished his own Son. He also maintains that Christ was not punished but sin in him was. This is a problem because how does one separate the person from the punishment. Read his book THE DAY THE REVOLUTION BEGAN.

[@bobpolo2964]

"He also maintains that Christ was not punished but sin in him was. This is a problem because how does one separate the person from the punishment." I would like to dialogue with you about your statements. Please read Romans 8:1-4. Give me your thoughts and we'll go from there. God bless
