Biblical Covenants and Normative Hermeneutics
My concern in this article is to address this phenomenon of prophetic makeover. How can God express Himself in the most forceful language of commitment to Israel and not mean what He is saying (Jer. 31-33)? How can God make a solemn oath to accomplish stipulations which He and no one else has placed upon Himself and proceed to “expand” these stipulations beyond all recognition (Gen. 15)?

The Church as a Mystery (Pt.2)
In Ephesians 3 and Colossians 1 the Apostle Paul refers to teaching about the Church as a “mystery” (musterion) . What does he mean by this? Is he saying that the Old Testament saints knew nothing about the New Testament Church? This lecture deals mainly with the claims of so-called “Progressive Dispensationalism”.
