How Paul's View of the End Times Shapes Us Today: Interview With Dr. Constantine R. Campbell

Is the Apostle Paul a "covenant" or an "apocalyptic" theologian? We sit down with Dr. Constantine Campbell to discuss Pauline eschatology in Campbell's latest book "Paul and the Hope of Glory."
We'll explore the significance of eschatology (end times) in Pauline theology. Campbell asserts that while union with Christ serves as the webbing that connects the Apostle Paul's thought, eschatology shapes the contours of his teaching on justification, resurrection, ethics, and more. Campbell will share how Paul thought about the end times, unpacking phrases like "the last day," "inheritance," and "hope," and showing us how they fit into the bigger picture of what Paul believed.
Why does Paul's perspective on the future matter for us today? Campbell will discuss how Pauline theology shapes our beliefs about salvation, resurrection, and how we live our lives right now. Tune in and equip yourself with a deeper understanding of Paul's eschatological vision and its implications for our hope of glory.

    this guy has a solid understanding of the mind of the apostle paul. i would only add the following: _”you were sealed with the holy spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of his glory” (eph. __1:13__-14)._ the holy spirit is the guarantee (or down payment) of our future inheritance until god redeems the purchased possession, that is, we will receive our inheritance of eternal life upon our adoption as sons, which is the redemption of our bodies. _“not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body” (romans 8:23)._

    It's weird at 12:18 - 12:24 Constantine's audio gets cut off when he mentions the judgement to come for those not in Christ.

    The future glory will be so awesome. I still tend to struggle with knowing that through faith in Jesus, I am now part of His kingdom. I often seen myself like this (I got this image in my head when Dr.Campbell was talking about being ares of Christ): I’m in this large castle (medieval era) with very nice clothes. I feel like I was asked to do something for the King, and as i was off to do the task, I had such fear. Like, in the daydream, I was physically trembling and just scared. This is often how I feel when doing works for Christ and just the fear of sin and compromise. I’m not exactly sure how to get over this? I’ve dealt with this for a few years😅😅 and the believers I’ve asked said that they don’t feel this way at all.

    My pastor once referred to Hebrew 10:37, and cited, "“In just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.” 'The Lord seems to be coming very soon and would not change his mind" I agreed. I have found many scriptures that point to the imminency of the Lord's Coming, that traditional eschatologists ignore or fail to adequately explain. Were the Lord and His Apostles deceived, tried to deceive or speak in such veiled language that we would struggle to understand for 2,000 years?

    Isn't the context Paul talks about being "in Christ" through his letters talking about the believers Baptism that they by faith "died with Christ" and are "raised with Christ". ???

    And the Apostle Paul was the last desciple to be called by Jesus Luke 18:22. I believe he was also present at the time of the baptism of Jesus Christ, because he would have known about John the Baptist and everything he said concerning the Messiah, which could have prompted him, as a Pharisee of pharisees, to seek out validation from him in Luke 18. 1) The rich young ruler's main concern was to "inherit eternal life " vs 18. He judged himself worthy because he believed he had been obeying all the laws. 2) He had been listening to Jesus's teachings and was convinced that he was a man of authority, though, he wasn't ready to accept the fact He could be the Messiah, so he approached Jesus in a condescending manner- as he was a pharisee and they believed themselves to be above everyone else. So, he sucked up to Jesus by calling Him "Good Master ". Jesus saw through him and responded in a way that means He was God, if Paul believed that He was good, and went on to poke holes in his legalistic beliefs- he believed he never committed adultery, but Jesus taught that to just look on a maiden lustfully already constituted a breaking of the law, so was bearing false witness, which they were notorious for, but wouldn't admit to, so he was indirectly stealing from the temple coffers in the name of doing business for God Galatians 1:14; as was not honoring their fathers and mothers in the name of bringing offerings to the temple etc. and finally, told him to get rid of the source of his pride: his wealth, and distribute to the poor, as they usually pretended to do to look good before the people. He wasn't ready to even exchange that to gain eternal life, which Jesus understood (and gave him time before answering his calling vs 22). He began to follow Jesus from then onwards, persecuting Him just to get physical proof on Him as a fraud. I believe he was behind all the questions to get Jesus to break the laws- including paying taxes (Jesus was called the Son of David, David and his house have been tax exempt by King Saul, for slaying Goliath, by this they're negating His relationship with King David, hence, cannot be the Messiah, they even insult Him of being born of fornication, as Mary got pregnant before getting married John 8:41 etc.) 3) I believe he spearheaded the group that deceived Judas to betray Him, and those they bought to shout "crucify him " over and over again until Jesus was crucified on the cross. He really did persecute Jesus and by so doing, get to follow Him as other desciples, learning from His teachings all along, even sneaking behind to witness the last supper to confidently say he received it of the Lord 1 Corinthians 11:23, to make hin an Apostle born out of due time - long after his calling 1 Corinthians 15:8. 3) His anger made him turn his his back on his own life, and began to persecute everyone linked to Jesus, from Stephen up till the time he fell off his high horse- so to speak, and was forced to come to reality of who Jesus Christ really was- The Son if man(David), The Son of God, which he knew all along but his legalistic mind was resisting it: he finally called Jesus "Lord", though subconsciously, but he always knew He was Lord when he heard His voice again Acts 9:4-5. After this, he became so overzealous enough to begin to let everyone know that "Jesus was the Son of God, and the Messiah" vs 20,22. He began to immediately experience persecution himself, which got him to Arabia, where he had ample time and opportunity to review all the proof he had collected while he was persecuting Jesus 2 Timothy 4:13. He could even have been the naked young man, who was used to entrap JesusChriston the night of His arrest. Mark 14:51-52. (That was why he could write with so much understanding of the Lord in all his epistles). 4) Philippians 3 was where he finally came to terms with the fact that all his wealth could not be exchanged for the knowledge of Christ and gaining eternal life- his all life pursuit Luke18:18! This came at a price though - he lost all his fortune, that he wasn't willing to give up at that time: Luke 18:18-30, calling them "dung." But now, forgetting all his past life and pressing towards the prize of the "high calling " of Jesus, as he now sees it! That was why it was easy for the other desciples to extend to him the right hand of fellowship as the Apostle of the gentiles Galatians 2:9. That was also why he could withstand the other desciples when they were preaching the law and circumcision together with the grace of God in Christ Jesus in Acts 15. Immediately after preaching in the synagogue that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, Acts 9:20-22, God sent Barnabas to help him fulfill his calling, and spread the gospel if salvation to both Jews and gentiles, especially the gentiles. The gospel of the salvation of our souls is simply by grace through faith in the sacrificial death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the completed work of the cross that no one can add to or remove from by doing good or bad. The Holy Spirit was sent to guide, teach, interpret, and keep until the end, John 14:26. Thus, He quickenes the believers and takes them all up at rapture. Until then, we give ourselves to studying the scriptures to make ourselves approved unto God as workmen that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth-daily! That was the reason why the Apostle loved his Jewish brethren so much that he wouldn't mind being accursed, as long as they can all (the 12 tribes), be saved! Romans 9:3! That was the reason he endures so much beatings and maltreatment from the Jews, who really hated him, but he continued to concern himself with them, even took up collection of money for the Jewish belivers, even though he was sent to the gentiles-39 stripes 5 timed, got shipwrecked, got bitten by a venomous snake, but like the Duracell battery, he still kept going strong till the end! How stinky and painful and full of putrefying sores, his body must have been, yet he kept on going... So he ran and finished his course and ensured that the outcast tribe of Benjamin, finally has a place in the body of Jesus Christ, and will sit with Him on the right hand of the throne of God, in heavenly places! He made and left us all a legacy, so we can all make it. Thus, he is free from the blood of everyone who rejects so great a salvation story!

    Is the mystery of God Christ-in-You? Is it? What did Paul say. Does Christ come quickly in people? Read the masterpiece breakthrough novel "Where Do We Go Now, LORD? - Burke." Explains much. Too much? Enjoy the breakthroughs.
