Weathering The End Times, Donald W. Holdridge Sr.
Weathering The End Times, Donald W. Holdridge Sr.
Eruditio Ardescens
“Weathering the End Times” first addresses some of the major arguments for and against man-caused Climate Change, and then portrays where the various elements of Christendom fall within this debate. It goes on to examine the prophetic Scriptures that relate to the environments of the Tribulation, Millennial Kingdom and Eternal State, concluding that God-caused Climate Change is what believers truly need to focus on.
The Eschatology Of The Dead Sea Scrolls, J. Randall Price
The Eschatology Of The Dead Sea Scrolls, J. Randall Price
Eruditio Ardescens
The Dead Sea sect represents a unique view of Second Temple Judaism at an important juncture with the beginning of Jewish Christianity. A study of the eschatological views of the sect provides an historical and theological background for comparison with the views of Jesus and of early Jewish Christianity recorded in the New Testament. It further illustrates why Jewish eschatology should be a course of study within Jewish Studies and New Testament studies.

Confidence In Christ And The Sin Unto Death - When Should A Believer Not Pray?, Leo Percer
Confidence In Christ And The Sin Unto Death - When Should A Believer Not Pray?, Leo Percer
Eruditio Ardescens
John’s instructions in 1 John 5:13-21 represent several well-known issues in New Testament studies. Writing on this passage could well feel like entering into an already raging battle. Opinions on this passage are almost as numerous as the authors who write about 1 John. About the only non-controversial aspect of these 9 verses involves the issue of confidence for Christians. The issue of assurance or confidence in knowing about eternal life (and other related issues) is a constant theme in 1 John. John consistently emphasizes the reality of salvation as coming through only one source—the incarnate Jesus, God in the …
Emotional Doubt And Divine Hiddenness, A. Chadwick Thornhill
Emotional Doubt And Divine Hiddenness, A. Chadwick Thornhill
Eruditio Ardescens
This essay will seek to develop a possible model for addressing the existential problem of divine hiddenness and the emotional doubt that it might cause in the life of a believer. In doing so, it will identify several potential "root causes" for the experience of the existential problem of divine hiddenness and attempt to guide a hurting individual through dealing with their doubt by applying misbelief therapy.
The Great Commission, Don Fanning
The Great Commission, Don Fanning
Eruditio Ardescens
This last promise in Matthew extends beyond the life span of the Apostles to every believer that commits to the task of raising up a group of Christ-followers among every ethno-linguistic people groups on earth “to the end of the age” (Matt 28:20b). This phrase is also found in Matt 13:39-40, 49; 24:3, which refer to the end of the present age when the Son of Man returns to establish His kingdom. Thus the promise not only applied to these 1st century disciples, but to every disciple since then and until the end of the Church Age. We can …
The Continuation Of Israel’S Land Promise In The New Testament: A Fresh Approach, A. Boyd Luter
The Continuation Of Israel’S Land Promise In The New Testament: A Fresh Approach, A. Boyd Luter
Eruditio Ardescens
This article responds to recent evangelical interpreters who have argued that the land promise given to Israel in the Old Testament is no longer in effect based on the scarcity of references to the promise in the New Testament. The paper asserts that the Land Promise is not only present in the New Testament, but even provides a sort of overall theological framework for the New Testament.
“Read, Hear/Heed” (Rev. 1:3): Obeying An Exegetical Clue To Understand The Overall Practical Messages Of The Apocalypse, A. Boyd Luter
“Read, Hear/Heed” (Rev. 1:3): Obeying An Exegetical Clue To Understand The Overall Practical Messages Of The Apocalypse, A. Boyd Luter
Eruditio Ardescens
This paper is about: how I came to the understanding of, to use Talbert’s words, “the pastoral application” of the Book of Revelation, and what that message—or, more accurately, messages—are. First, the meaning of Revelation 1:3 will be explored as an up-front clue to the book’s practical intent. Second, I will explain where my renewed brainstorming on the “heeding” front initially took me in regard to a “big picture” sense of Revelation. Third, I will demonstrate how a grand chiastic structuring of the Apocalypse actually has major practical implications. Fourth, I will lay out a “spread chiasm” of the …

Reading A Protoevangelium In The Context Of Genesis, David Pettus
Reading A Protoevangelium In The Context Of Genesis, David Pettus
Eruditio Ardescens
This article proposes that the case for a ‘messianic’ reading of Gen. 3:15 is cumulative. No single individual argument is decisive and it is virtually impossible to sustain a robust protevangelium interpretation of this text within the context of Gen. 3 alone. However, as already pointed out in the introduction, isolating Gen. 3 from its literary/historical context in the book of Genesis does not lead to a fruitful resolution of its meaning but at best creates a hypothetical reconstructed meaning behind the text which becomes difficult to sustain in light of the interpretation of the 'seed' in the entire book. …
