Thanks Mike & Yes to more theology and philosophy. And how about your excellent book, The Kingdom Among Us!? I recently had discussions with pastors who are sliding into things like dual aspect Monism. They think of themselves as Willard guys, but I find many of the people that say that have not read Willard deeply. This is why I think your book is so important. Getting to the theology and philosophy behind what Willard has written is essential. How can your book be introduced to a wider audience?
Thank you for the video! I really like the book but this part confused me a bit and perhaps you can expound on this. What would it mean to meet Jesus as he lived in 1st century Palestine? Would the man Jesus know all the equations of general relativity? That is, does he know all the true propositions there is to know of the world? What I found helpful was Daniel Napier’s approach of Jesus as “philosopher” I.e. Jesus knows fully what and how to live life well. In any case what I would like to know is essentially the difference that Dallas took on Jesus with respect to propositional knowledge, “smart” which would be more akin to high IQ (you can still have high IQ w/o knowing all facts) , or the relevant knowledge for how to live and flourish in the kingdom of God.
Creating a disrespectful image of our lord for a clickbait thumbnail is not the move. You should change it and repent, lest you have to answer to God for mocking his image "for more views"
Christ was crucified as a sinner and seditious rebel. If He was worried about being “mocked” He would not have allowed Himself to be crucified. His humility is demonstrated in the fact He made Himself so low for us.
@ The tragedy of the passion was that He was falsely accused of being a sinner and seditious rebel, mocked and humiliated by the very people He sought to save. With your logic you justify blasphemy, torture, and murder against Him because He allowed Himself to be blasphemed, tortured, and murdered. Remember what "hallowed be Thy name" truly signifies. Does this thumbnail give the respect to Christ that He deserves?
I love the 'low & slow' aproach. Thanks for doing it patiently and deeply.
