Sauntering with Paul White

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 8

Chapter 8: We see that Jesus is the mediator of a better covenant - the Old Covenant, the Levitical priesthood, the temple, all are declared obsolete. These things were shadows of a much greater reality. This is a strong word from the writer to the Hebrews!

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 7

Chapter 7: The mystery writer of this book now introduces us to the Old Testament mystery character, Melchizedek. His background and parentage is unknown and his death is never recorded. He seems to prefigure Jesus in some ways, but the most important issue in this chapter is the replacement of the Hebrew priesthood. This is radical!

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 6

Chapter 6: This chapter continues in the vein of not drifting away from our hope, or allowing our heart to become hardened to God's voice, but also contains a very sober warning. Many hours of discussion have been sparked by these verses!

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Jesus our great High Priest is so intimately aware of our weakness and vulnerabilities, as he became fully human. The writer of this letter develops and extends our understanding of Jesus in his humanity without ever diminishing his identity as God the Son.

Eschatology Episode 3: Climate

The science of climate change has taken on a deeply moral tone in recent years; even adopting religious language in the endeavour to activate the consciences of climate transgressors. We take a look at the prophets, experts and sacred texts of this popular eschatology.

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 4

Chapter 4. The writer of this amazing letter stresses the urgency of Today. He urges us, the readers, to respond to God's invitation to enter his Rest. Today. Jesus has done all the hard work. He has made a way. We come because Jesus invites us.

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 3

Chapter 3. We discover how the process of drifting can lead to us hardening our hearts to God's voice. The  writer uses a powerful example from Israel's history to illustrate just how much we can lose by allowing our hearts to harden.

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 2

We discover that Jesus is amazingly fully human, yet fully God. By virtue of his humanity he is able to be a High Priest who fully knows what it is to be human; having fully experienced human suffering; yet he is also able to be the exactly perfect sacrifice to pay for all of our sin debt.

A Saunter Through Hebrews: Chapter 1

This amazing book shines like a polished jewel from the pages of the New Testament. It speaks to us in the 21st Century as powerfully as it spoke to its audience almost 2000 years ago. Join me as we consider the identity of Jesus, revealed by the mysterious, yet profoundly inspired writer of the book addressed to the First Century Hebrews.

Eschatology episode 2: Jihad

Jihad has been slightly less in the news lately, although is currently very much centre stage in certain African nations. We explore how jihadist groups are driven by an interpretation of Islamic eschatology. We discover how some threads of belief seem similar to Jewish and Christian ideas and where they part company.
