    244. The Timeless Truth of Hebrews: Does the Date Really Matter?

    In this episode, Dr. Mininger continues his examination of the Book of Hebrews and its historical context, specifically addressing the ongoing debate about whether it was written before or after 70 AD.

    243. Temple Cult Evidence in Dating the Book of Hebrews

    In this episode, we'll be continuing our discussion on the preterist interpretation of the book of Hebrews. Last time, we looked at some evidence from Hebrews related to the persecution of Christians and how that might suggest the book was written before the destruction of the Jerusalem temple in 70 AD. Today, we're going to dig deeper into the text of Hebrews itself, examining whether the author's descriptions of the temple sacrificial system indicate it was still ongoing at the time of writing. Professor of New Testament Studies, Dr. Marcus Mininger, will walk us through some of the key passages in Hebrews and the nuances of the Greek language that shed light on the timing of when this epistle was composed. He'll weigh the evidence and consider how much this dating question really matters for how we interpret the message and theology of Hebrews.

    242. When Was Hebrews Written?

    In this episode, Dr. Marcus Mininger, Professor of New Testament Studies, looks at the world of biblical interpretation, specifically examining preterist interpretations of the book of Hebrews. His discussion centers around a key question that has intrigued scholars for centuries: Was the Book of Hebrews written before or after the destruction of the Jerusalem Temple in 70 AD? Perhaps more importantly, he'll explore whether this dating question is as crucial to understanding Hebrews as some might think. Dr. Mininger begins by examining evidence of Roman persecution in the early church and what it might tell us about when Hebrews was written.

    239. The Fruit of Faith: Calvin on Repentance

    In this episode, Dr. Beach continues to explore Book 3 of Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion, focusing on a topic that’s often misunderstood: The relationship between faith and repentance. Many Christians wonder: Do we need to clean up our act before coming to God? Does our repentance earn us forgiveness? Calvin is helpful here. He provides insights for his time and ours that true repentance isn’t a prerequisite for faith but rather its fruit. Join Dr. Beach now as he unpacks Calvin’s thoughtful exposition on how the Holy Spirit bonds us to Christ, the nature of genuine repentance, and why this understanding is crucial for grasping the doctrine of justification by faith alone.

    238. Faith and Assurance in Calvin's Theology

    In today's episode, Dr. Beach explores John Calvin’s thoughts on the role of the Holy Spirit in uniting believers to Christ through faith. He touches on the necessity of being "in Christ" to receive salvation's benefits, the nature of true faith as a firm knowledge of God's benevolence, and the struggle between faith and doubt in the believer's life. He also examines Calvin's critique of certain Catholic doctrines and emphasizes that genuine faith, while sometimes weak, ultimately triumphs through God's grace, highlighting Calvin's emphasis on resting in Christ's work rather than one's own efforts for assurance of salvation.
