N. T. Wright on Paul and the Transformative Gospel

In his lecture “Paul and the Faithfulness of God” delivered at the 2014 Fuller Forum, N. T. Wright, New Testament scholar and former bishop of Durham, explored Paul’s message of the Gospel as one of a holistically transformative and utterly new way of living, thinking, and worshiping.

    Basically, Paul said if we are Born Again, ( receive the Holy Spirit) Christ abides in us. We have the spiritual authority to act in His Name. However, this is in the spiritual aspect of humans, not the soul. However, the soul and spirit are seamlessly connected. Only Jesus is the double-edged sword that can divide between soul and spirit. In essence, as we renew our mind, Christ operates through us and we go along with this activity. This is probably what was so revolutionary about Paul. The triune God dwells within humans, acts, speaks, thinks, and converses through humans. That is a higher level of consciousness and operates in realms that are not manifested in physicality. This is understood and taught by contemporary Rhema schools of thought founded and based in the U.S.A. The teachings of some of the post-charismatic teachers in the U.S. go into great depth to explain what the Bible means by Faith.

    @Min. 29:33, he must be right in his assessment of the Western Churches getting Paul's theology wrong, take January 6 as am example, where USA is imploding right before our eyes and they dare not confess. God bless us on our journey!!!

    Regarding Africa and China, please see Don Richardson's award-winning bestseller _Eternity in Their Hearts_, which talks about Shang-Di in ancient China, Hananim in ancient Korea, and other traditions in Africa, Burma, Central America, etc., that seem to point to the God of the Bible and specifically to the coming of Christ.

    Sylvia, You have separated what God has joined. God used Paul uniquely to explain, enact, and propagate the work and ministry of Messiah Jesus. They are on the same team.

    What NT Wright calls "doing theology" is how the early church and the schools of Israel's prophets understood the gift of, the process of, the practice of prophesy. 1 Chron 16's David understands how the people and the presence of the Most High God shrine will interact to declare ha Shem among the Nations. 1 Cor 14 assembly uses prophesy as evangelism. #Missiology #SojourneyingSpiritedSeers

    Paul was a Messianic Jew before Jesus . When he saw the risen Christ he then thought the Messianic Age had begun. That is why his ideas are so well developed. He held them for years before he ever saw Jesus.

    Yes… all of us have authority to baptise others. Jesus told His followers to baptise new believers Matthew 28:18-20 18 And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 You’all go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”.

    The community needed something new, something different. . . Paul invented a new discipline, a new task. . . A new theology. Ah, ok, but you just walked right past the new community called Church and it's central uniting point, the Eucharist.
