We have talked about discussing this book on this board and several people seem interested. Perhaps you can start the conversation out? For instance, what's your comment on chapter one?

Ortho-Berean, I think if you started a new thread right away and titled it something like Satan and the Problem of Evil Chapter I Discussion, you'd get more participants.

I'd like in on this, but being in Abilene Texas, I cant join until Amazon can get the book to me, hehe

Kyle, did you know that you can also get the book from Christus Victor and have it signed by the Doc I recommend you to look at the Christus Victor homepage if you didn't already know about this because this way you will get a signed copy

Thanks for the kudos Berean. Mind if I jump in now and then (but I want to be careful not to have the discussion revolve around my participation.)[/quote}

That would be wonderful. I think you jumping would be great especially for clarification.

How about this format. Start a new thread with each chapter. How about One Chapter a week? And I deligate that Berean be the instigator of each new thread? All parties agree???

Done :-)

Now, on the eschatological point... I think the view DOES fit very well with a post-mill perpective. But I don't think it rules out an a -mill, and not really even a pre-mill.

---

I think that it CAN fit well with the other views, but I see that this view is a champion of the post mill view. I am lovin' it.

I myself tend in an a-mill direction... I think. Alls I know is that the Kingdom has IN PRINCIPLE already come, and we are to work ceasely to see it manifested until it is perfectly manifested "on earth as it is in heaven."

---

You said it we are working to see the will that is accomlpished in heaven done here on earth. That is totally a "post mill" view... are you sure you are amill? I alwasy thought of amil as a pessamistic view. That does not seem to go along well with your view of war.

Thanks for starting this up.

No prob. I think that are to many great points in here that need to be in our natural thinking process. The best way to get the concepts of this book "in our heads" is to talk about it.
