Description

Tune in to hear Pastor Wilson talk the intelligent design glitch. Then he plugs The Good of Affluence, and wraps things up with a talk about the Greek word “Akathartes”. Happy Plodding!  Show Notes: The Intelligent Design Glitch some ID advocates don’t argue for the existence of God but rather for an ambiguous somebody  there is a fatal flaw in this argumentation they should say that they are creationists if that somebody is not God, than does it exhibit design? you either must have God or an infinite regress  the intelligent design movement must have a God The Good of Affluence  written by John R. Schneider he shows that it is better to be affluent than poor, if everything else is equal he argues compellingly for the essential goodness of good things good things can be abused God gives us these good things to enjoy, and we need to thank God for it Akathartes translated as filthiness, found once in the NT Revelation 17:4, talks about the great whore of Babylon—she in her turn is an image of unbelieving Isreal this is a contrast of the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven for her husband, as a spotless bride

In the Plodcast, pastor Douglas Wilson covers anything related to theology and culture with his usual entertaining style. Whether it involves talking about Chestertonian Calvinism (not an oxymoron), the benefits of a Classical Christian education (not in that order), or the latest pomosexuality farce, the plodcast aims to apply all of Christ to all of life, for all the world. Douglas Wilson is an evangelical, postmill, Calvinist, Reformed, and Presbyterian (pretty much in that order) and is politically to the right of Jeb Stuart.
