Reformed Fringe

Doug and Adam take a deep dive on the mysteries of the Transfiguration of Jesus. We focus in especially on Mt. Hermon, with Jesus both at the bottom and the top of the mountain, as well as the “fall of Satan like lightning,” and how it refers not to the primordial fall of the devil, but the angry strike of a heavenly being who, now engaged that Jesus is the “beloved Son of God,” flashes to the ground in an attempt to put Jesus to death.

Doug and Adam take a look at the state of the most basic Christian theological beliefs among Evangelicals according to a recent survey from Ligonier Ministries. The answers will shock you.

Have you ever wondered how the Divine Author of the Bible might play an unseen role in giving us our biblical text? In this episode we explain what textual weaving is: the ancient art of writing where the author carefully arranges the words into invisible columns and rows — like threads on a loom — so that when you read them horizontally you get the story, but when you read them vertically you discover a whole new objective and fixed level of meaning that turns the story into a brilliant tapestry. In Ezekiel 16, God hides a perfect 7×3 grid inside 63 verses:
* One column for every nation and lover Israel chased
* One column for every idol and false god she worshiped
* One column right in the middle for the heart that forgot God The result? 
A chapter everyone calls “shocking” suddenly becomes a breathtaking picture of sin, judgment, and the God who atones for His unfaithful bride. If you’ve never heard of biblical weaving before, this episode will open your eyes to a whole new way of seeing Scripture — and show you why Ezekiel 16 isn’t just a hard chapter… it’s a masterpiece.

In this episode, Doug gives a talk summarizing the Cosmic War of the Sons of God series, but with particular focus on a couple of ideas not discussed in the series. There’s a little Divine Council overview from the Reformed perspective. There’s cosmic mountain ideas and how that actually ties to doctrine of covenants we Reformed folks like to discuss. The seventy is here as is the doctrine of election and how it pertains to the cosmic war. If you are interested in more, including early access to coming Fringe episodes, go to www.reformedfringe.com
