When you have an under realized eschatology, what we're actually saying there is you don't think christ has done enough. In galatians, the issue was circumcision and obedience to the law. An over realized Eschatology says that what god has promised has essentially all come true. And so instead of longing and waiting for something that is yet to be revealed, we're living as if the new creation has already dawned on us.
This series has helped us to see that we can enjoy God’s creational gifts without guilt. But God also gives us eschatological gifts that prepare us for our heavenly home. So what happens when we have an over-realized or under-realized eschatology? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Eric Landry, Justin Holcomb, and Bob Hiller talk about life between the “now” and the “not yet,” considering the role of virtue in the Christian life and how the law gives shape to the good life as we’re conformed to the image of Christ.
