Resurrection Makes NO SENSE without Deification
from The Nathan Jacobs Podcast · host Nathan Jacobs
What if everything you’ve been taught about life after death is completely wrong? The shocking truth is that without an ancient, forgotten concept known as "deification," the New Testament's entire promise of resurrection becomes totally incoherent. This episode exposes why true resurrection is not just about coming back to life, but a radical, qualitative metamorphosis achieved only by partaking in the divine nature.======================================Do you like this content?
