 Well, speaking of remnant theology our last questions from Greg in Acts 13 You briefly discussed Old Testament remnant theology and how it fits into the predestination Election debate he would love to hear more on this the Old Testament idea not so much how it fits in the New Testament And also appreciate any resources you could suggest on this topic. Yeah There are a couple things that I will make sure Trey has and Trey will make sure gets up on the the website to deal with remnant theology a couple articles So you could look for those I think to sort of try to summarize an answer here And remnant theology in the Old Testament and sort of broadly speaking is that God will never he'll never let his plan for a kingdom die Entirely and therefore he will never let his people be entirely exterminated by evil He's not gonna let evil win even even so as bad as it gets it's never as bad as as that because God will intervene I he'll interview when needed But he won't eradicate evil because that would mean eradicating humanity He will not get rid of evil and free will because then you know that that's an admission that would be an admission in God's part That you know what this was just a bad idea, you know God's not gonna do that He is committed to humanity. He loves the idea of humanity. He created humanity like to be like himself Which includes again communicable attributes one of which is freedom. These are on the surface These are just the most obvious things theologically in the world that just jump out at you from the text I think we need to affirm, you know, what what's there in the text and then you know Come up with with our best understanding of how to handle it and sometimes, you know people like us I just get married to systems someone's attempt and then You know love it so much that they'll defend it at all costs even if one of the cost is coherence But remnant theology again is just this idea that God is not gonna let this thing die And if he needs to intervene he will and he does that in the Old Testament Noah I mean he doesn't wipe everybody out. He saves Noah Noah finds grace in the eyes of Lord He saves Noah and his family, you know, he does it with his people. He does it with the tribes of Israel You know, he there's 700 who have not bowed the need of bail. He uses Obadiah to hide them He's never gonna let the thing die, but he will not again erase humanity to get it done He will not erase the image to get it done. He has chosen to use people and use people. He will there is no plan B There is only plan A and the New Testament you have God acting to ensure Really consistent with the old he's gonna act to ensure that a remnant of believing Israel the true Israel will not be exterminated You know, he's not gonna just gonna forever forget the Jews now and the Jews can all be exterminated and whatnot No, that they are going to there. They're gonna be believers Among the tribes of Israel who embrace the Messiah their Messiah and become part of the people of God But there will also be Gentiles. There'll also be people among the nations who are not of the 12 tribes of Israel And he is going to lay claim to those nations as well as his own through them He's going to make sure again that he's gonna preserve a remnant He's gonna make sure that there are people from the nations, you know Embrace the gospel and and you know that it never dies, you know, it never there's never a single nation That doesn't have a witness. There's never a single nation that doesn't have God's people in it infiltrating it to again multiply Multiply that situation to take the gospel to every nation to every corner, you know of the world and get the job done You know if God needs to intervene he will he will not let it die So that that that's essentially the the overarching idea of remnant theology, you know By just think about what the New Testament is you have the people of God. It's circumcision neutral It's the tribes plus the non-tribes it goes all the way back again we're trying to restore an Edenic vision God's rule over over the entire planet and Originally, there were no nations. There was no Israel But now there are but the problem that the plan is the same, you know God is going to win, you know the whole planet You know, it's it's his he's there's not going to be this little crack or crevice of it A little portion of it that he does not own at the end and his vehicle for doing that are Believers or people and he's just not going to let it die anywhere at any point
