The Gospel for All Nations, by O Palmer Robertson

-

 O. Palmer Robertson is someone we have gotten to know only relatively lately, and we consider our introduction to Him a God-given, providential discovery. Robertson has somewhat recently taken to writing a Substack page called Elder to Elder (elder2elder). Though his Substack normally is focused on issues that directly affect Teaching and Ruling Elders, occasionally he writes more broadly or universally. The substack article below falls into the latter category.

We appreciate all that Robertson writes, but we are especially enlightened by his knowledge of the Gospel as it pertains to God's Covenant to the Jews; "Gospel Equity" (our term, not Robertson's) among Jews and Gentiles; Palestine in history and in God's overall plans, and "the land." In short, he clears up much confusion and anxiety that exists in the church and in the world regarding "the times" and "the land" vis-a-vis the Jews and the Gentiles, and redemptive history.

"The Gospel for All Nations" is his recent address to the 51st General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of America. Without further adieu... (P.S. Subscription is free.)

Kamala Harris DOES Have A Policies Web Site!

Come on Media — mainstream, midstream, downstream, liberal or conservative, whatever you want to call yourselves — quit propagating the idea that Kamala Harris does not have policies on the inter-web. If you want to know what her priorities are and what she has accomplished, maybe take a look at these two pages on the Biden-Harris  Accomplishments and Priorities ?  Allow me to give you some interpretive guidance and advice: First, if it is not on her Top Accomplishments list, it's probably not a priority for her. Second, if it is not on her Priorities list, it's not something she really intends to accomplish. Third, try to keep in mind that just because someone lists an accomplishment does not mean there is direct, empirical or even circumstantial evidence that it has been accomplished. Accomplishments Take, for instance, the Biden-Harris claim to "Lowering Costs of Everyday Expenses," accompanied by a detailed, cartoon-esque graphic that probably cost upwards of ten

IQ Tests Are One Reason I Don't Trust AI

  REMEMBER IQ TESTS? Stick with me here for a minute or two.  One of the (if not the main) reasons I shy away from Artificial Intelligence (AI) (which is not even a real thing, but that is another discussion) is because, unlike the woke crowd, I don't reject completely the legitimacy of IQ tests. That having been said, it stands to reason that AI will always reflect the breadth, width, depth and sources of learning of the various individuals who are developing the AI programs (i.e., their IQ's).  (And by the way, does it not bother people that multiple AI programs and models are being developed, thereby suggesting that there are many types of intelligence around any particular topic?)   In short, AI will always reflect the collective IQ's of its developers. And I would venture to say that it will also reflect the EQ's (Emotional Quotient) of its developers. The key idea here is when I mentioned the breadth, width, depth and sources of learning of each AI developer. In s

About "Pride Month"

-
Not much good ever comes from being proud of your sin, or your sexual perversion. Instead of celebrating our sinful pride...whatever it might be that we are proud of...we should examine our pride to determine if it is justified or sinful. Proverbs 16:18 Pride  goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. Leviticus 26:19 and I will break the  pride  of your power, and I will make your heavens like iron and your earth like bronze. In Context  |  Full Chapter  |  Other Translations 2 Chronicles 26:16 Uzziah's  Pride  and Punishment But when he was strong, he grew proud, to his destruction. For he was unfaithful to the  Lord  his God and entered the temple of the  Lord  to burn incense on the altar of incense. 2 Chronicles 32:26 But Hezekiah humbled himself for the  pride  of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the  Lord  did not come upon them in the days of Hezekiah.
