Rethinking the Kingdom of God, Christ’s Ministry, and Christians’ Transformation from Regent Audio on Vimeo.
What is “the good news of the kingdom of God” that the Lord Jesus himself and the apostles proclaimed? This presentation engages the predominant view in evangelical scholarship and the counterproposal sketched by the philosopher Dallas Willard. We will examine both models for conceptual adequacy to the biblical presentation of salvation-history as a whole, and provide additional explication in the light of several key biblical passages and oft-neglected systematic-theological considerations. Finally, observations will be offered about the implications of the model propounded for the transformation of Christ’s followers and their lives.
