The New Covenant: The Greatest Law – Part 4 – Time for Every Purpose Under Heaven

Posted on July 11, 2024September 24, 2024 by Matt

It took much uncomfortable rumination and discussion for the Church in Jerusalem to settle on the requirements for the new Gentile Churches. For the Christian Jews, it must have been extremely displacing to agree to a belief which would no longer follow the Old Covenant Law…

The New Covenant: The Greatest Law – Part 3 – Method

Posted on July 10, 2024September 23, 2024 by Matt

The New Covenant: The Greatest Law – Part 2 – Introduction

Posted on July 9, 2024September 23, 2024 by Matt

This is going to get uncomfortable. There are existential ramifications coming into the fullness of the New Covenant. Speaking to Jewish converts, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free,” (John 8:31). These Jewish converts were still struggling to let go of the idea that they needed the Old Covenant Law to live rightly before God.

The New Covenant: The Greatest Law – Part 1 – Prologue

Posted on July 8, 2024September 23, 2024 by Matt

I see a time coming when most, even Christians, will lose confidence in our ability to make sense of Christian morality in the ways that we have done so up until now. We find ourselves in a position where we want to defend Christianity, again, but we have lost confidence in in our ability to justify it. This, I see, is the challenge for the next era of Christianity. It is a challenge to which I believe I can offer a vision for a path forward.

Taking the New Covenant to War

Posted on June 12, 2024August 30, 2024 by Matt

As outside observers, who are of different cultures than either of the parties in conflict, it is admittedly difficult to know how we should respond. Israel is justified in wanting to eliminate Hamas while Gazans are caught in-between and are justified in wanting peace and protection. How, then, should a Christian respond? This is my attempt at looking at the conflict through the lens of the principles of the New Covenant.

How to Live in the New Covenant

Posted on May 31, 2024October 2, 2024 by Matt

The Great Commandment, The Great Commission, and The Great Mercy. I have identified these three principles and have discussed their value as a way to know what is right but I have never said, precisely how. I will attempt to remedy that somewhat, here.

Universal Patterns

Posted on March 5, 2024July 29, 2024 by Matt

Universal patterns are descriptions of reality as such and how reality and being play out fractally at every level. Their value is not just in showing us how reality plays out but in showing which patterns produce optimal results. In this way, universal patterns are something like vectors in mathematics in that they can be…
