Recorded during the 2015 CRTS Conference.
Dr. Smith proposes a distinction between finding eschatology by way of explication (mining passages containing direct information about the end), by way of implication (exploring typological features, secondary fulfillments, etc.), and by way of application (pulling through eschatological lines; drawing out the significance of a passage for our future hope), illustrating the importance of such a distinction with samples from the book of Psalms. He concludes by asking in what sense an OT book can be called eschatological.

When Christians hear the word “love,” they quickly think of 1 Corinthians 13, and rightly so. However, how can the Apostle Paul say that “love never ends,” when in reality we see many different situations in which love is put under stress and, at times, even seems to come to an end. God’s Word in 1 Corinthians 13:8 forms the basis for this speech by Dr. Van Vliet, given to a youth rally in Ontario in 2014.
