Is there not also room for a Neo-Calvinist “ordo saludis” in the NPP? I think Barth’s theology of election works nicely with the theology of the NPP. It actually ties up some ends on how Jesus is the fulfillment of Israel without being a replacement. And it helps say how the church is also not a replacement, but just the branches connected to the stump.

I am trying to put faith together. I've spent some time on apologetics - WL Craig, John Lennox - and I've started looking into the historical Jesus - NT Wright, Gary Habermas.. So I've watched some NT Wright videos and this led me into hearing about this New Perspective mentioned. So I watched this video to clarify and thought it was helpful. But then looking through all the comments, it seems there are so many people who have commitment to very specifically delineations of doctrine on what seem fairly obscure issues. And they seem to think that what one thinks about these details is very important and they defend and argue in a determined and sometimes fairly graceless manner these apparently minor points. So it gives me some concern. CS Lewis' notion of 'mere' Christianity is about the core classic Christian doctrines that are theologically necessary to establish, articulate, and maintain for the Church to be fulfilling its call, ie. to be able to glorify God, proclaim His gospel, to be a corporate vessel for the Holy Spirit to reflect and glorify God in the world, to be a context for individuals to personally 'get right' with God and to live for Him and to be increasingly sanctified by Him, etc... So, does the minutae of theological / doctrinal stuff matter in a crucial way? Because if it does, what does that say about the chances of the average person who isn't a seminary graduate ever being able to work out a position on these things? Or to be able to critically evaluate different sources / perspectives? And if these things aren't really of consequence, shouldn't we better spend our time finding ways to serve God in obedience to what we know He's explicitly exhorted us to do in Scripture? I'm personally prone to being excessively analytical, so I sympathise with the instinct, but if it's not leading to the salvation of more souls, more glory or obedience to God, or more Christ-like character being formed in His followers, is there a point at which it becomes counter-productive and just a source of infinite points of contention, of pride, division, mean-spiritedness, etc.? (Caleb, I was glad of your video and I repeat, I found it helpful because it gives a complete layman like me a summary. But then I felt a bit despairing of how to keep on putting faith back together again because of the difficulty of knowing what sources I can trust when I see people like NT Wright derided in the Comments)

Thank you for your lecture. I found it very stimulating - and have subscribed. However, I was amused to hear this described as a 'new' debate. It reminded me strongly of the almost identical debates we were having back in 1960 at Sydney University, Australia. As part of our theological training for ministry (and alongside separate lectures in our own denominational colleges) we had joint lectures at the university itself, where the whole Reformation debate on this subject dominated Second Year studies. (No, we Arminian Methodists would never have described faith as a 'work.' It is simply a grateful response to God's wonderful prevenient grace.) Sixty years later, It is encouraging to see serious thinkers like yourself clarifying the issue for the current generation. I look forward to the next episode.

I also enjoy how he delineates his view in as compared to both OP and NP. I really want to thank you because your videos were not only clear, but included a new category for me, Historic Augmented Reformed Perspective. I'm a reformed guy but was not aware that HARP was a thing. I naturally fell into that category (thanks to DA Carson and GK Beale). I've already bought NT Wright's magnum opus, his Christian Origins and the Question of God. I'll be back for your thoughts as I read them. Lastly, as a layperson, I really appreciate that somebody is talking theology that is timely and relevant for the church today. Lord knows it's hard to find at the congregational level.

This was outstanding! Thank you so much! With one exception: I believe you have misrepresented the ordu salutis debate and the Arminian position. In brief, the essence of the OS is the logical order of the relationship between faith and regeneration: Calvinists assert that the Holy Spirit regenerates a "spiritually dead" person and gives the gift of faith to the now awakened elect person to believe. Whereas, the Arminian believes that God has granted a prior/preventing grace to everyone who is spiritually separated from God who may respond by faith to become regenerated and join the elect group in Christ. In Arminianism, this faith is absolutely NOT a work! It is a response, a cry or call (according to Romans 10) to the gospel message as the condition of salvation -- apart from and opposed to human works. To seek to contribute to salvation is a "work". To believe that God has accomplished everything necessary through Christ is an expression of faith -- opposed to works (Eph.2).

I found this very helpful for understanding what all the controversy is about. I had no idea that it was so complicated for people, nor that all these attempts were made to tie it in to Gentile debates in western Christianity since the Reformation. I thought it was all much simpler, having read NT Wright, and also thought it was all reframing it in Jewish ways that make sense on their own, but that cannot be at all plugged in to or made sense of within those Gentile debates. I have what I think is probably a new perspective on Paul, but I would never frame it in terms of maintaining covenant in Arminian senses, nor anything like that. Maybe I should write more and present how I see it as relates, or doesn't relate, to the things brought up in this video.

As now Eastern Orthodox, I have dove into the writings of the church fathers and councils in the early church and found that they all had clear understandings regarding these things. Read St. John Chrysostom’s homilies on Romans for example. That said, I’m glad the “new” perspective is finally challenging the Calvinistic post-renaissance interpretation of Romans!

Hasn't NT Wright moved far away from those 5 differences altogether since he wrote that essay? I think that essay was a first step in breaking away from the old perspective, but still using a lot of old perspective philosophical questions and philosophical categories. Doesn't NT Wright's newer body or work move away from those questions and categories altogether to conclude that we shouldn't be in those weeds if we are to understand Paul correctly, but that we should be thinking in terms of altogether new questions and categories?

It would seem that if people are brought into the covenant, then logically this would mean either they are thereby made right with God by being in the covenant, or not. If not, then 1) So what? what's the big deal? and 2) the basic question of justification before God still stands. If "sitting at the communion table" is for only people right before God (justification), then NP is just a way of saying the same thing as the OP. If "sitting at the communion table" says nothing about salvation, or for unsaved people, or says works is needed to stay at the table, then at best we have much ado about nothing for does not solve the problem of how to solve the sin problem or at worst just confusingly rehashing old arguments. Right?

17:25 Err, no. I feel your a bit muddled up on this whole issue. For starters, assuming the NPP is calling 'faith' a 'work' immediately falls within the OP framework. Wright is quite Calvinist on the order of salvation. For Wright, faith is the evidence of the Spirits regenerative work, the heart needs to be changed by God before it can come to faith. Arminians believe the gospel call is open to all and faith is the free choice of the audience. This faith receives the benefits of the gospel. For them its important that everyone has the free choice to accept the gospel. For Wright and Calvin, God elects, through the gospel and Spirit he brings about faith. Arminians - Free will can bring about faith, Calvinists - God sovereignly chooses who will come to faith.

I read Romans recently with some brothers and, unaware of this New Perspectives debate, simply noticed how Paul shifts his audience in the early chapters from the Gentiles to the Jews. The first couple chapters seem to say, “Okay you who reject the Mosaic Law, follow nature’s laws. You still fall short.” By the fourth chapter Paul has turned his focus to the Jewish believers among the church in Rome and his criticism is much sharper. That’s my “New Perspective.” I don’t need N.T. Wrong spewing his mush at me.

Nicely produced and very thorough but on the question of justification I see Justification as more than mere forgiveness. It’s a declarative act of God that makes this person Just in a real concrete way. Forgiveness is a “subtractive” act: it removed guilt. Justification is an “additive” act: God establishes a person in righteousness as a free gift.

Great video Caleb. Can't wait for the next. Some thoughts on the righteousness of God. Romans 3:25-26 This (propitiation) was to show God's righteousness, because in his divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. 26 It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that he might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus. Interesting - it seems God's righteousness here is God defending himself against the accusation that he is unjust. The solution is justifying sinners through propitiation (substitution). His righteousness is defended (in this specific verse) through imputation. It seems to reduce "the righteousness of God" in all of Paul to imputation (Luther), covenant membership (Wright), or God defending his glory (Piper) is to fall into the old DA Carson exegetical fallacy of illegitimate totality transfer (illegitimately transferring the meaning of a word or phrase in one context into another context or every other occurrence). The "righteousness of God" certainly must mean his rightness in punishing sinners in Romans 3:5, but we don't force it to mean that in every other occurrence. As for the term appearing in Romans 1:17, it may simply be referring to God's attribute of being righteous; but if 1:17 is a preview of 3:25-26 and all of Romans 4&5, Luther may have been right (not Wright) to see it as a summary of the concept of imputed righteousness. Whew... thoughts?

I think you have it pretty close there. Romans 2 discusses the God who rightly judges with wrath depending if the requirements for eternal life in verse 7 & 10 are not met. God is a just God. The question, however is, how does God justify a sinner with a just justification? He, that is, God, is a just God who justly justifies sinners, through faith in Jesus Christ. The righteousness of God includes His wrath, the covering of the Old Testament saints, and the propitiation of His Son for the New Testament saints. God is righteous in all of these things, without setting aside His perfect standard.

There is a real standard of truth to many of Paul's writings but there is also another truth to the specific group Paul is addressing. So you've got to get into the heads of the targeted audience and at the same time get into the head of Paul and how he would uniquely approach that unique situation 🤔. Believe it or not there are ways of doing both. I discovered this back in the late 80's and 90's before any of these new perspectives were brought out (while studying 1 Cor. 14). In retrospect I would say both perspectives on Paul are correct. It may seem inconsistent but Paul is extremely complex.

Seems that all 3 perspectives have it wrong concerning justification. Man justifies himself, justifies his best friend (David & Jonathan), is justified in a court of law (Deut 25), and man....justifies....God (Romans 3:4). If justification is 'entering into the covenant family," then when man justifies himself (say, before a police officer or a court of law), or justifies his best friend, or justifies God - all of these instances has to do with "entering into a covenant family"? .... justification means to "declare", be it "declared righteous" or "declared innocent."

So is the new perspective implying that according to the jews, gentiles do not enter into the covenant by grace like them since they are not the people God elected and enter into a covenant with by grace, but Paul was saying that they can enter and stay in the covenant by grace without having to keep what the jews had to keep to stay? What was wrong about the argument of the jews? They have to do the works but not the gentiles? Why? What Jesus did so that become possible? and what Jesus did to the jews that were in covenant already, what did they need from Jesus?

Thee most correct cutting of His word is that between the gospel of Jesus and the gospel of the risen Christ and smack dab in the middle is the most important event in the history of the universe, the cross of Christ. And these two radically different gospels are NOT to be mixed because doing so just causes chaos and confusion and brings great joy to Satan. The basics: The Jews, Circumcisionists v. The Gentiles, Uncircumcisionists (Gal. 2:7 and OF is vital, not to); Under law, good works v. Under grace; Forgiven if you do this this and this v. Justified, declared righteous so no need for forgiveness; Must go through the tribulation v. Not appointed to indignation and thus snatched away before Jacob's trouble commences; A terrestrial destination v. A celestial destination; Peter and his peoplev. Paul and his people; The bride of the Lambkin v. The body of Christ. The latter are not under law but grace, thus under no covenants. The former are not under the new covenant until after the 1000 years when there becomes a new heaven and earth. During the 1000 years the old covenant still exists and earth's inhabitants have to do the law. With the new earth, God changes their hearts of stone to hearts of flesh. Hope this helps. Regarding law, never forget Romans 5:20: yet law came in by the way, so that the offense should be INCREASING.
