So I was watching X-Men 3 last night with my wife (in response to the new X-Men movie which is good, I recommend!), and in the middle I started thinking, “Man that’d be tight to be Wolverine!” As I was thinking about running around and cutting people’s heads off I got a gentle reminder from the [...] -

We confess this frequently at my church: “Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again.” These are foundational Christian beliefs. Do you believe Christ is coming again?

Yes, I think that these Scriptures establish a pattern that points to continuing significance and ultimate fulfillment: Romans 15:4; Col 2:16 & 17; 1 Peter 1:12; 1 Cor 10:11.

Paul provides encouragement to the Thessalonians in II Thessalonians 1:6-10 concerning Christ’s return. One theme I have noticed about eschatology is that there are two strong themes: comfort and judgment. Christ brings comfort to those who love Him and judgment upon those who hate Him. In the passage in II Thessalonians there is strong emphasis [...]

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. [...]

Naturally, I have read these verses many times. In fact, I had to read a whole book about the Sermon on the Mount in seminary. But, somehow, it just dawned on me that these verses about clothing are NOT about trying to decide which shirt color goes with the best skirt color. Jesus is talking [...]
