well i've been really stressed out the last few weeks. I've been hurt, stressed, and it seems like nothing is going right. But i'm not going to spend this whole post complaining. So I'm just going to leave all the junk i'm stressed out about, and just relax and write on here.
Well I got my syllabus e-mailed to me from the seminary i'm going to be attending. I looked at my "rapture and the tribulation" class, and one of the requirements for the class is to make a 13-week outline of a sermon series on the rapture!! I can't wait to do that.
I just bought a new book titled "the gathering storm" it is a theological book on bible prophecy. It is so good. Right now i'm reading a chapter on biblical intrepation. The chapter basically talks about how screwed up new evangelical intrepetation is. And how that is carrying over into eschatology. Thats why there are preterists, amillinalists, postmillialists, because they have all skewed away from literal intrepation. Even now there is "progressive dispensationalism" which is a new method of intrepetation. Progressive Dispensationalism says that all the promises God made to Israel in the old testament is now given to the church and not Israel. All their really trying to do is make peace with covenant theologians. And what really makes me upset, is that Dallas theological seminary is now accepting and teaching this heresy. And to think i was thinking about going there, i'm glad i didn't. I'm glad i'm going to baptist bible seminary, a good premellinial dispensational seminary. Its just a sign of the times, that theologians are liberalizing their intrepetation of the bible, making the bible say what they want it to say. Instead of what God wanted to say through the biblical writers.
my gosh, i sound like a freaking theologian! ahhhhh!
well i guess thats all i wanted to say.
