I am headed over to Wales today for a conference on the Gospel of John and Apocalypticism at the University of Bangor. I am speaking on the topic "Why are the heavens closed? The Revelation of the Father in the Gospel of John." I am looking forward to the discussions and will be back posting next week when I return home.
Is that a genuine question or a provacative one? I'd like to read your speech. Thank you. Skip
ReplyDeleteOf course, God the Father is revealed in John by the person and work of Jesus. So, in a sense, "heaven" was on earth, in first century Palestine, in the ministry of the Messiah.
