COVENANT THEOLOGY VS. DISPENSATIONALISM (AND ITS VARIETIES The Bible teaches a strong continuity between the old and new covenants and between Israel and the church. While there have been some changes in covenant administration, I do not think these changes warrant the adoption of a form of dispensationalism or new covenanttheology.
ABORTION AND THE CHRISTIAN (PART 1) “he treatment of the newborn, just emerged, was also left to the discretion of parents.The point at which a child was accepted into Roman society was not its first breath but the ceremony in which its father, by lifting it up, formally acknowledged its legitimateexistence.
THE LEVITES—A CLASS OF WARRIOR-PRIESTS “Whether a third aspect of the priest’s functions or whether a consequence of the first two, we must recognize the military duty of priests.Consistent with the functions of temple priests in surrounding religions, the Israelite priest guarded the tabernacle or temple of God through threat of arms. GIANTS IN THE LAND: A BIBLICAL THEOLOGY OF THE NEPHILIM The Septuagint also translates גִּבֹּרִ֛ים (gibborim) as γίγαντες (gigantes, “giants) in Ezekiel 32:21, 27, a passage that may describe giants and their place in Sheol after death.Nimrod was a גִּבֹּ֖ר (gibbor), which the Septuagint also translates as γίγας (“giant”) in Genesis 10:8-9.Michael Heiser, TheUnseen Realm, 107.
THE BIBLE PROHIBITS SOCIALISM Socialism is growing in popularity among young people in the West, including Christians. They seem to have forgotten—or never learned—the violent history of socialism in places like the Soviet Union or that taking place today in countries like Venezuela.

Unlike many commentaries, this book is enjoyable to read straight through. Leithart is skilled at identifying themes and types throughout the Bible (though he makes some connections that may be a stretch). COVENANTAL SEX: HOW SEXUAL UNION MAKES, BREAKS, OR RENEWS Westminster Confession of Faith 24.2—“Marriage was ordained for the mutual help of husband and wife, for the increase of mankind with legitimate issue, and of the church with an holy seed; and for preventing of uncleanness.” This has strong biblical support—companionship (Genesis 2:18), children (Genesis 1:28), and purity (1 Corinthians 7:2). IS A PASTOR AN ELDER? (THE TWO VS. THREE-OFFICE VIEW OF There is a variety of practice among Christians regarding church leadership (part of the area of theology known as ecclesiology). The Reformed churches, including the Dutch Reformed and Presbyterian churches, have held the Bible to teach that each church should have a plurality of elders and deacons in leadership. WHY IS JESUS CALLED THE "SON OF MAN"? In what seems a rather cumbersome self-reference, Jesus often calls himself “the son of man.” In my experience of popular preaching and teaching, a vague impression is often conveyed, if not explicitly stated, that “son of man” is a way of emphasizing Jesus’ humanity, highlighting the fact that Jesus is a real flesh and bloodhuman.

Book Review: The Unseen Realm (Heiser)May 17, 2017
Zachary Garris
Michael Heiser’s _The Unseen Realm_ is a book that every serious student of the Bible should take up.
