N.T Wright on Resurrection and Social Injustice!

N.T Wright is by far one of the leading New Testament scholars of our day, and my personal favorite author/theologian. His academic work goes hand in hand with his ministry as bishop of Durham, helping out kick start communities that have been hit by the effects of a worldwide recession. His testimony prompts us to take a closer look to his teachings on resurrection + heaven and social injustice.

Courtesy of 100huntley's channel on youtube, I bring you some outtakes of his answers to many basic questions of the christian faith and claim.


Here he briefly elaborates on the resurrection:



and also, a podcast on one of his lectures, courtesy of the Veritas Forum in Harvard University, on social injustice, titled:

Hope these resources prove to be a blessing to the seeking Christian, and I hope they bring encouragement and hope, that we might allign our world view into that of New Testament Christianity.

My hope and prayer!

It is my prayer that I may serve both believers and seekers, through the discussion and analysis of biblical passages in light of their historical context, and that this inspires at the very least an intellectual and/or spiritual journey to the heart of scripture and God's true message.

As an unabashed follower of Jesus, I hold true to the belief that almost 2000 years ago, He died on a cross and was risen from the dead, assuring the eternal salvation and future bodily resurrection to the one who decides to place his faith in this event.

Genuine belief, must compel us, to urgently partake in God's rescue Kingdom Project, announcing his resurrection to the world, and together as believers, serving one another and the world around us, awaiting the Lord's return.

Disclaimer :-)

It is imperative that I start this little venture with a fair reminder to all readers, that I assume all of you will have a noble "Berean" spirit when approaching these articles and I humbly state that I have done a strict research of all that is posted here, but remain open to any corrections and/or comments, and will acknowledge and correct when necessary, but never at the expense of the integrity of Scripture.

I assume and expect Scripture will remain at the forefront of study, and that these articles might simply bring color, and allow the full overtones of the narrative in biblical passages to be heard, and do not intend to distract from it, so pray, read and let God speak to you and through his Spirit, that his word might come alive in your hearts and shape your character.
