Isaiah 35: Perseverance in Holiness
Advent brings us a dizzying approach to time. On the one hand, we are preparing for Christmas, looking forward to the birth of the incarnate God, and revisiting those passages in Isaiah that most clearly reflect the person and life of Jesus. We fondly hear from Isaiah, “A shoot shall come out from the stump of Jesse,” and “The virgin shall conceive” and we get a foretaste of the joy of the wondrous birth of God made man.
Richard Bauckham’s Comfort in Affliction
The Blurred Cross A Writer’s Difficult Journey with God By Richard Bauckham Baker Academic, 208 pages, $21.99 Among Richard Bauckham’s many books, The Blurred Cross is unique. It is not a scholarly work that tackles the difficult questions of theology. Nor does it open new frontiers of biblical interpretation. Rather, it is a rare glimpse into the soul and experience of a man of deep faith as he encounters a life-changing crisis.
Chronic Illness and Prayer
Why do we pray for people? What is the purpose of prayer? Praying for people with chronic illness raises uncomfortable questions. We tend to have a vending-machine approach to prayer. Insert quarter, out pops a bag of M&M’S. (Okay, these days it’s more like $3.) Very often, people who pray for the sick pray with the idea of them “getting better.” After all, if the church today is heir to the apostles and the church of the Book of Acts, why wouldn’t God do the same miraculous things now as then?
Leviticus and the Incarnation
In recent years, I have reached the conclusion that nobody can study Leviticus without being utterly blown away by the incarnation. Leviticus 19:2 provides the foundational reason behind all the laws given in the Old Testament: “For you shall be holy as I am holy.” Holiness means separation, being set apart.
Death Cafés and the Resurrection of the Body
By Hannah Armidon Among many effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the world was an increasing sense of mortality. This was very evident in the circles of the internet that I frequent. Some had loved ones die. Many grew gravely ill and found themselves slipping gradually down the inexorable slope toward death.
