Tom Wright is exactly right on his exegesis of Galatians and the other passages. I was a preacher for about forty years and only when I reached my sixties did I come across Tom Wright’s books. I’m afraid many of my brothers and sisters simply do not understand the Old Testament or the New Testament.

Paul and the rest of the early church had a strong sense of the difference between what is possible in this age and the perfection of the age to come. They understood the temptation to seek power in this age, which could become a terribly corrupting force. On the other hand, they also understood Jesus' command to be light and salt to others, through good works, that others might give glory to our Father in heaven. Every generation of the church community must walk that tightrope.

The early church and Paul had a “strong sense?” Really? They seemed to be in conflict quite a bit. And considering Paul never met Jesus I’m more convinced the story was made up or massaged to make it what he needed it to be.

@@bobloblaw4102 The main discussion in the earliest documents of the church was over exactly what was required of the Gentiles. As all the disciples who followed Jesus had been Jews and had previous ideas on how Gentiles should accept Torah, that a new understanding had to be forged is understandable. But they all were informed by the good news of the resurrected Messiah, who was in fact the revelation of Israel's Creator/God. That is there from day one, in both word and practice. As they went forth to take that transcendent reality to the world, they taught respect for established authority, avoiding direct political critique, rejecting rebellion. While at the same time, their teachings were entirely counter-cultural to all the power practices of this age, both then and now.

Romans 5:12, which reads: “By one man sin entered the world, and death by sin; so death passed upon all men, for in him all men sinned.” Augustine repeatedly referred to this verse and thought it plain and unambiguous. The problem is that the Latin translation renders the Greek phrase eph’ ho as “in him”, which is an impossible rendering. Sanday and Headlam, one of the great modern textual authorities on Romans, wrote: “Though this expression (eph’ ho) has been much fought over, there can now be little doubt that the true rendering is “because.” ”Thus “death spread to all men, because all sinned”.

Check out Mike Heiser's explanation on election, it's very similar. He says election is more about service and availability of the oracles of God. You still need to be saved. The exile to Babylon still happened even though Israel was "elect" they still need to believe. From what Ive read from personal study, the difficult "predestination" passages are leading up to Romans 11, especially Romans 11:21 For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you Which is odd because these are believers that are supposed to be "elect/saved" in the calvanism sense And Romans 11:28 As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers Which is also odd because this is hardened Israel that doesn't believe

Oof. That opening remark about the cultural definitions of theological words that have been "cut loose" from their original context in the Bible. Then people start with their isolated notional re-definition, and work backward, imposing that idea over the Biblical text which originally meant something drastically different from their misinformed construct. Yikes. YES. This is exactly how we get stuck with these intractable historical denominational disagreements, with (at least one, or sometimes both) sides simplistically relying on badly-twisted proof-texts, while calling each other heretics. I'm gonna refrain from "naming names" here. But it is exactly this issue, that makes Bishop Wright seem to me so much more credible, than some of his vitriolic critics.

@tedclemens4093

Try putting "pistis" in context to the Garden incident. Consider faith and judgment (of good and evil) to be at odds. For example, after making everything, God called all of his creation, "very good." (Genesis 1:31). But after eating the fruit, Adam and his wife had a different opinion (Gen. 3:7). Such evaluation-or judgment-is the product of eating the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. Being able to decide what is good and what is evil, the two became (perhaps unwittingly) gods unto themselves! (Gen. 3:22) With faith, God is the judge of good and evil (see also 1 Peter 2:23).
@PeterParker-gt3xl

Faith (Pistis) in the "invisible" God encompasses the entire cognitive/intellectual acknowledge of the truth by a firm personal submissive surrender/conviction with dynamic/ continuous conduct "until death". While Grace (Charis) is a free gift from the Father (2 cor. 1:12) and Christ (Gal.1:6). those that choose not to accept this great gift or those that accepted but "backslide", fall away, forsake or defect (Apostasia) will be disinherited. Gentiles grafted to the olive tree as xenograft are Abraham's adopted heirs while "remnants" of the Israelites grafted to its native branch, if both bare no fruit shamed the Holy Spirit will only be good for fire.

Wright offers a strange and novel definition of justification in its peculiar narrowness. After all, Abraham wasn't in Galatia or Rome nor was he justified as a Jew nor Gentile in a reconciliatory community with others. Clearly, he was justified in no other way than through his living faith in God that came entirely by grace. Moreover, we find the same to be true of all saints prior to the New Testament era. Then, it was applied partially as Wright explains, but also with the whole of salvation history in view. But let's hear from the earliest Roman church leader known outside the New Testament.... Clement of Rome: “Whosoever will candidly consider each particular, will recognize the greatness of the gifts which were given by him. For from him have sprung the priests and all the Levites who minister at the altar of God. From him also [was descended] our Lord Jesus Christ according to the flesh. From him [arose] kings, princes, and rulers of the race of Judah. Nor are his other tribes in small glory, inasmuch as God had promised, “Thy seed shall be as the stars of heaven.” All these, therefore, were highly honored, and made great, not for their own sake, or for their own works, or for the righteousness which they wrought, but through the operation of His will. And we, too, being called by His will in Christ Jesus, are not justified by ourselves, nor by our own wisdom, or understanding, or godliness, or works which we have wrought in holiness of heart; but by that faith through which, from the beginning, Almighty God has justified all men; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. ANF: Vol. I, The Apostolic Fathers, First Epistle of Clement to the Corinthians, Chapter 32.

Wright and his New Perspective ignore the great practical question of, "Are my sins forgiven? How are my sins forgiven?" and reduces it down to just covenantal membership. By all means, argue that the familial and covenantal aspects of justification were neglected by the Reformers / in Protestantism, but you're throwing the baby out with the bathwater. It's doing huge damage. And TBH, if you must pick one aspect then the one the Reformers would choose is better than that which Wright would choose.

Respectfully, Acts chapter two demonstrates that speaking in other tongues (languages) as the Spirit gives the utterance is the definitive sign of receiving the gift/baptism (Acts 1:4, 2:38) of the Holy Spirit. Peter teaches as much when he says that "This" (Referring to Acts 2:4-7) is "That" which was spoken by the Prophet Joel referring to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.* Consider also: John 3:8 KJV - The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. (See also John 3:3-5) This seems to further be the case as Peter stood up with the eleven and preached the Gosepl to the people in one language common to them all (Greek, Hebrew, or Aramaic.) *Joel 2:28-29 KJV - And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. Happy to answer any questions I can. Baptism of the Holy Ghost, Infilling of the Holy Ghost, and Outpouring of the Holy Ghost are interchangeably phrases all referring to the Promise of the Father i.e. "The Holy Spirit". John 7:37-39 KJV - In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.) Luke 24:46-49 KJV - And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. And ye are witnesses of these things. And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. Acts 1:4-5 KJV - And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. Acts 2:4 KJV - And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 10:44-48 KJV - While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. Acts 11:15-18 KJV - And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning. Then remembered I the word of the Lord, how that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost. Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God? When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.

All great and difficult questions, you’ll find a lot of resources online that address these questions if you really want to; but ultimately, every Christian you encounter has a relationship with God that is the driving force of their belief. It’s true that there are many complexities in scripture that are constantly in debate and often misunderstood because they were written thousands of years ago to a different audience. We believe the Bible is the inspired word of God written by humans - it is all useful for instruction but our faith is in God, not religious dogma. I understand your reservations, I’ve had/have them too but I have also experienced God at work in my life, and I can’t explain it away, such is my belief in God.

Interesting that NT Wright brought up the matter of head coverings for women. Women SHOULD cover their heads when praying and prophesying. I think this is a command that is going to be discussed more and more as many have been avoiding addressing this because it’s going to create a storm. Headcoverings are seen by many Christians in the West as just a Muslim practice and therefore to be resisted. I speak as a Christian woman who wears a headcovering and who has only experienced hostility to this from - ironically enough- Christian men.
