Gary discusses a recent interview with entrepreneur Peter Thiel about particular views he has about Christianity.
When Jesus’ disciples asked Him whether it was time that He would restore the kingdom to Israel (Acts 1:6-8), Jesus sent the Holy Spirit (2:1-47). Notice the answer Jesus gave to those who questioned Him about “restoring the kingdom to Israel”: “you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth/land” (1:8). Their inheritance would not be confined to a strip of middle eastern land.
Jesus was the personal and physical fulfillment of the temple (John 2). Jesus was the personal and physical fulfillment of the blood sacrifices (“the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world”), He was the physical embodiment of the red heifer (Heb. 9:13-14).
For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Jesus was the fulfillment of their “place and nation” (John 11:47-53). The chief priests and Pharisees understood the implications of who Jesus claimed to be. They were the antichrists of that generation (1 John 2:18, 22; 4:1-3; 2 John 7), the “synagogue of Satan” (Rev. 2:9; 3:9). They wanted an earthly political Messiah with physical Israel to be the center of the world with physical Jerusalem as its capital.

10 Popular Prophecy Myths Exposed and Answered might rattle your beliefs and shake you to the core. Hopefully, it will drive to the Bible to be a Berean and “see if these things are so” (Acts 17:11). In the end, you will be a better student of God’s Word, and isn’t that what it’s really all about?
Gary discusses a recent interview with entrepreneur Peter Thiel about particular views he has about Christianity. Thiel claims to be a Christian, but has some views contradictory to the Bible, as well as some strange ideas about eschatology. While the Bible can inform modern ideas and cultural movements, it is primarily relating real events, not high-level philosophies.
