010. Rethinking Predestination (Exploring Romans, Pt. 2)
In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb, along with Dr. Fredrick J. Long, continue discussing Romans. Halcomb draws on a previously written essay of his titled "Do Not Be Conformed to this World: Rom 12:1-2 in Light of Environmental Determinism" (Kingdom Rhetoric, Wipf & Stock, 2013). In that volume, Halcomb suggests that, when we talk about Predestination, we often ignore ancient context and, thus, create theological faulty structures. Listen in and see what you think.
