Theology of the cross vs. the theology of glory
Never called themselves Christians because that would be taking the Lord’s name in vain/ buildings were not churches, the people were the churches/ In AD 64 the believers were accused of starting the fire in Rome (they thought it might be the end and threw their belongings on the fire). Their allegiance was not to Nero and the persecutions were especially bad in Rome.
Matt 5:2 No satisfaction with world system
Mystery of timelessness
Eccl 3: 1 No longer giving importance to the next minute is or comes from the preaching of the cross, seeing the futility of giving importance to anything in time and space
Preaching of the cross is God’s power, it causes you to be an enemy of the world.
There’s no middle ground.
Welcome!
