DA CARSON
“To accept that a different or opposing position exists and deserves the right to exist is one thing; to accept the position itself means that one is no longer opposing it. The new tolerance suggests that actually accepting another’s position means believing that position to be true, or at least as true as your own....We move from allowing the free expression of contrary opinions to the acceptance of all opinions; we move from permitting the articulation of beliefs and claims with which we do not agree to asserting that all beliefs and claims are equally valid. Thus we slide from the old tolerance to the new.” --DA Carson

Sept 19, 2016: Youtube: D.A. Carson : The Book of Exodus: Jesus Christ the Ultimate Israel
In a phone talk with Tony Reinke he explains the importance of the Book of Exodus as one the major Biblical themes.
The Exodus of God’s people out of Egypt is “the greatest redemptive event in the Old Testament", says Carson. "...It is simultaneously the escape of the Israelites from Egypt, and the events surrounding the exodus, like entering the Promised Land...It is the greatest redemptive event in the Old Testament to which subsequent revelation points to again and again and again...The ultimate Israel is Jesus himself...We are truly Christians if we hold our beginning faith steadfastly to the end, which is precisely what so many Israelites did not do.”

Somewhere in a black hole in the universe there is a supply of socks from the dryer, the promises of a political candidate, and the time each of us has lost....which will never be seen or found again.
