Comment on Tim Keller on Strong Rationalism by Aaron

I also liked the book. What is so refreshing is that he admits that what he is saying is based on faith, and shows that people’s philosophies and assumptions of life are based on faith to some degree whether they want to admit it or not. I also like the concept that false philosophies crumble by their own standards. I am still struggling with some of the concepts, but I can definitely say that there is wisdom in this book. It makes you question your beliefs… well, nothing can make you question your beliefs, that is a personal choice… but if you are in that mode of searching for truth and understanding, it is helpful.

By the way, good catch on this it looks like. I just found the following quote from Tim’s book Reason for God on pages 31-32:

“The Bible teaches that the future is not an immterial ‘paradise’ but a new heaven and a new earth. In Revelation 21, we do not see human beings being taken out of this world into heaven, but rather heaven coming down and cleaning, renewing, and perfecting this material world.”

But read the very first two verses of Revelation 21 (which Tim doesn’t reprint in his book):

“[1] Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, ***for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone.*** [2] And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a beautiful bride prepared for her husband.”

Do you have a date of that sermon by any chance? I go to Tim’s church and this really shocks me that he said this! If you have a date then I can download the sermon and listen to it.

Thanks!

The point is that the wearer of the shirt is somewhere between Calvinism and Arminianism…nobody seems to get that.
