We talked about Revelation 1:10-11, and a little bit of other stuff. * Is John transported into the future? * Is there significance to the number of churches he writes to? * Is there any use for all that Greek nerdy babble you always do? Bonus discussions on arrested pastors in Canada, why you should learn Greek, the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20), and a dash of textual criticism. Don't say w...

We spent some time with Revelation 1:9, talked about the eschatological vision of the New Testament in general and John in particular, fought to the death over the dating of the book of Revelation, and had time to talk about the State's antipathy to free speech and the Gospel. * Is the Tribulation future or present? Is "the end" (eschaton) yet to come or all around us? * Why does the State hate th...

We're responding to a video critique by Greg Koukl, as we took a week off of Revelation to study * Is "Christian Anarchist" a contradiction in terms? * Was Adam an anarchist when he sinned? * Is the State prescribed or decreed by God?

God the Father? Jesus? * Where can I get a good tire in Thyatira? Want to watch the video version of this episode? Go to YouTube and subscribe!
