oleaster.org/wonders-for-th… Jesus has a sharp word for those who mocked the resurrection: "You know neither the scriptures nor the power of God." For your consideration this weekend, I humbly submit an expanded "Wonders for the Dead."

Reposting the @OleasterBranch Advent Series in hopes it is a comfort in this season of expectation. Luke 2:30-32 …for my eyes have seen your salvation that you have prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel.” oleaster.org/tag/advent-ser…

@FarmLady4Jesus Many thanks for reading. It is not easy to navigate through such difficult history, but I feel it is important for Christians to have this context that is not often taught or acknowledged. Blessings to you!

@OleasterBranch Just read part 1, Ignorance, Arrogance... Many details and incidents I was unaware of. "Depraved" = historic Christian attitudes/treatment of Jews. I find it hard to relate to. Sadly, another pervasive wave of it is here--and it's a shock to the system. TY for a valuable resource

The Middle East is in turmoil and anti-Muslim sentiment in the West has rarely been higher. Many are preparing for an apocalyptic battle in which Muslims are the enemy. Nevertheless, a chosen few have crossed oceans and borders to undertake missionary work in Muslim communities. Our guest today, Devon Philips, spent years with Frontier Alliance International in Jordan, Syria, and Iraq. She’s here today to help us sort out what’s happening in the Middle East and how we can reach Muslims with the gospel of the kingdom.

Today is seven sevens from Passover, and tonight is Shavuot (Pentecost)—my favourite holiday. I am quote-tweeting my all-time most massive Twitter thread on the subject to celebrate. (Don't worry, an article version is linked a few Tweets in for the faint-hearted.)

THREAD: Ending Exile, A Meditation on Shavuot Three quick notes before I begin: One, it is a bit surreal to be sitting in Israel and writing about the hope given to us at Pentecost as death and mayhem follow riots, rocket launches, and airstrikes.

If you don’t believe in the resurrection, Jesus has three things to say to you: 1) You don’t know the scriptures. 2) You don’t know the power of God. 3) You are quite wrong. open.substack.com/pub/oleaster/p…

This series comes to a close (with a little less than an hour left in Advent!) with "The House of Israel and the House of Judah." What exactly is the "new covenant"? With whom is the covenant made? When will the covenant promises be enacted? oleaster.org/the-house-of-i…

✨New Series Alert!✨ For the season of Advent this year (3-24 December), I thought I would work through how Jesus’s Incarnation affirmed God's covenants with Israel and how his Parousia (second coming) will fulfill them.
