#183 – Salvation: Glorification with Patrick Schreiner
Knowing Faith
The Importance of Moses and Elijah's Transfiguration
Both Moses and Elijah asked to see God on the same mountain. They both have kind of unusual deaths, not completely unusual, but you know, Elijah is transfigured. I think they're heavenly witnesses and then you have the earthly witnesses on the mountain. You've got a bunch of stuff going on there.
Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley are joined by Dr. Patrick Schreiner to continue talking about the doctrine of salvation by looking specifically at the doctrine of glorification.
