1. In episode TWO HUNDRED AND FORTY-ONE, Mike, Wade, and Jason discuss theology by twos (law and gospel, theology of the cross and theology of glory, two kinds of righteousness, two kingdoms, etc.).
  2. It’s the Cross, Stupid. In this episode, we discuss how God makes a theologian of the cross, how the theology of glory infiltrates churches and their doctrine, and how the cross of Christ reveals the truth about human history.
  3. What is the difference of being a theology of the cross, and the theology of glory?
  4. A theologian is a passive receiver of God’s active revelation about Jesus Christ, his words, works, and ways.
  5. Our value and our values, our life, our everything is from Jesus Christ given to us as a gift.
  6. That on Pentecost God’s Spirit should function through a dozen seeming inebriates should be no surprise when this same God saves through the ignominy of the cross.
  7. The essence of sin is man substituting himself for God, while the essence of salvation is God substituting himself for man.
  8. The Second Edition of “The Christian Life: Cross or Glory?” by Steven Hein is now available from 1517 Publishing.
  9. Although God is always closer to us than the nose on our face, he has not taken the wraps off and given any sinful and mortal human being a full-measure, face-to-face meeting.
  10. Paul wants us to see this “present evil age” is dominated by a theology of glory and “the age to come” is dominated by a theology of the cross. They are two ways of understanding and interpreting all of reality, but especially the ways and nature of God.
  11. We continue to move into Isaiah and define the terms of holiness and glory.
