For example, actually, eschatology begins in the garden. The Old Testament speaks of eschatological prophecies, and the New Testament fulfills them. Why? Because it’s, if not the main way, it’s one of the main ways that the Old Testament is related to the New Testament. And then you want to look and see, how does it relate to the epics preceding and to the epics following? So biblical eschatology, which is the second part of our title today, is crucial to understand biblical theology. And by the way, according to this definition of biblical theology, if you’re going to interpret a particular text in Scripture in a biblical theological manner, what you want to do is first give the interpretation in light of the literary context, and then of the redemptive, historical context. Nevertheless, they’re still part of that organic revelation that biblical eschatology is crucial to understanding biblical theology. And yet, there are some things that look different. And it’s in history, and its historic continuity and multi formative, that means that you can see how things are continuously developing. So it’s the organic progress of supernatural revelation. But once you look more deeply, you can begin to see how they are organic outgrowth on into the New Testament. And so when we get to the New Testament, some would say, Oh, these fulfillments look much different than what the Old Testament must have foreseen. And so biblical revelation is like that growing seed, and however different that tree may look to the seed, and it does look different, doesn’t it? It’s still organic. What that means is that as Revelation progresses in his different biblical books, record that revelation, they are not recording something that is contradicting to the earlier revelation.

And its historic continuity and multi deformity that’s sort of a full definition, but exhibition of the organic progress. Our topic for today is biblical theology in eschatology, and biblical theology, rightly defined according to Gearheart, as DeVos is nothing else than the exhibition of the organic progress of supernatural revelation. I’m a professor at Westminster Theological Seminary until June one, and then I’ll join reformed Theological Seminary at their branch in Dallas.
