Isn’t She Beautiful-Eternal Life
Olam Haba=life in the age to come=eternal life
The Jewish sages would say, “How dare you speak of forever.” Who are we to know what lies over the horizon? Olam haba—living NOW in anticipation of what is to come. Living in harmony with God.
If you wanted to determine if you wanted to follow a particular Rabbi, you would ask the following questions:
1. What is the greatest commandment?
2. Teach me how to pray.
3. How do I attain olam haba?
How do I live now in anticipation of the age to come?
Acts 3:21 Restoration
Matthew 19:28 Renewal
Col 1:20 Reconciliation
The cross was about you and I, but it’s so much bigger than that-it’s as wide as the whole of creation!



Jamie, this is very interesting but this is where I think Rob got his eschatology wrong. This age IS the age to come
The previous “age” ended when the Jewish temple was destroyed and the “age” of animal sacrifices ended. I recently wrote an article titled Prophecy 2.0 that deals with some of those issues…you may find it interesting
Hey Virgil, I’ll check it out…..
How are you doing?
Much better..thanks for asking. Have a bunch of MRIs, EEGs and whatever other tests coming up. Still store from the accident but drugs are really working on the “no more pain” scenario of Revelation..heheh.
great comment virgil. The kingdom is now. Of course there is an already and a not yet aspect but Satan has been defeated and much of what some are looking to in the future concerning the Revelation of John is present reality and has been so for some time . . .
Virgil,
Glad to hear that you are feeling better. Please keep me updated on the test results. Glad the drugs are working
Virgil and Todd…I would love to see some dialogue on eschatology between the 2 of you…..
Jamie
