“Complications abound.” - I feel like the older I get the more that’s true of everything about the Bible! But it actually increases my faith, because my life is complicated too and resists easy answers.
Some of my guiding questions(those meaningful questions that never leave our thoughts) activated by this post:
Is “eternal life simply a longevity thing?
I believe that we have more witnesses of “eternal life” than we realize. In my mind, someone discovers eternal life anytime they experience, and flourish in, a life that is not bound by “The Rut” that many talk about and by which are captured and held prisoner! Discovering “The Gospel” in an “Embracing Grace” sort of fashion - And II wouldn’t rule out being “born again - breaks through the wall of the rut, and allows us to “try it, we’ll like it!!!” A sizable crack in the wall just may be events like the recent “Asbury revival”!
“Inaugurated eschatology” may speak to some of this, as something that lives across time?
If our main concern is the future, how much of the present do we miss, and, thus, how many people miss the tov we carry?
