I have grown up as a child of a Lutheran Pastor and have spent much of my life searching for fulfilment as a Christian. Why is it that the phenomenal wealth of knowledge and understanding of these academics never filter down in any meaningful way to the average church. I am appalled at the ignorance of so many pastors. Those that have serious training like my Lutheran father spend their lives feeding me the doctrines of the church rather than open up the truth of the Scriptures and the amazing evidence we have for the foundation of our faith. Thank you Craig and Sean.

Blomberg is awesome. His discussion here on soteriology is really good. Same with Philemon and Onesimus.

Finally! I've been trying to work through the miracles, teachings, healing, etc...of Jesus. I've been convinced that these signs had more to do with him proclaiming himself as God- the Savior the Jews were waiting for.(Ie: Calming the storm~the old testament scripture says only God can control the weather, etc...). Does anyone have books on this topic? Or what area of study/hermeneutic would this be? Christology, maybe?

About Jesus' remark with regards to Judas, how it would have been better that he'd never been born.. Blomberg seems to be quoting this sentence as evidence for the existence of hell (and that Judas is in hell). It makes me think of what Frank Turek said about this matter in one of his debates: that this type of language can be considered to be hyperbole speak from Jesus (the same as we can say 'team A slaughtered team B in the end phase', which doesn't have to do with any killing whatsoever). Also, Blomberg says that judgement is according to works and he seems to be implying that Hitler (if he didn't repent and therefore is in hell) gets beaten more severely than some other person who is in hell. But how I have understood the Scriptures that this judgement/rewards will take place in heaven, where we will be saved through fire. That all the works we could/should have done but didn't do, will be burned off of us, so that we will still be with Jesus, only with less rewards (because we did little works). Can anyone shed more light on these matters? Sean McDowell maybe?

The two swords bit was a fulfillment of the prophecy "being counted amongst the transgressors" which started there and was fulfilled at the cross with the thieves. He's telling them to get a sword to fulfill the prophecy, not used it.

"Whoever sheds the blood of man, by man shall his blood be shed, for God made man in his own image." Why is it that when a Christian argues for pacifism this verse is _never_ brought up?
