Dustin was gone this week, but somehow we managed to keep the humor for the first segment. Jovan Mackenzy (Von Frasier), creator of the original #DatPostmil intro song, joined us to confront our Batman blasphemies from Episode 10. We took his rebuke into consideration and charged forward with some meatier eschatological discourse. In the second segment, we discussed the four primary views concerning the millennium of Revelation 20 (Dispensationalism, Historic Premillennialism, Amillennialism, and Postmillennialism) as well as the origins and history behind those terms. After that we discussed the various views concerning the New Testament use of the Greek term Parousia—the “coming” of Christ. We wrapped it all up in the last segment with a brief synopsis of the four basic interpretive frameworks for New Testament prophetic literature (Futurism, Preterism, Historicism, Idealism) and how they relate to the four primary views on the millennium!

While John was too busy playing Trivial Pursuit and charades with strangers, Colin, Adam, and Dustin (of course, Seni had homework to do or something like that) got together and discussed the basics of Calvinism. Calvinism 101, if you will. And you will. We started out by going over the 5 Solas (Sola Scriptura, Sola Gratia, Sola Fide, Solus Christus, Soli Deo Gloria) and then ended with the Doctrines of Grace (affectionately dubbed TULIP – Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible Grace, Perseverance of the Saints). It was a great time, and you should listen. Cheers and A– er, I mean Cheerio Fine Lads!
