Summary

This series has helped us to see that we can enjoy God’s creational gifts without guilt. But God also gives us eschatological gifts that prepare us for our heavenly home. So what happens when we have an over-realized or under-realized eschatology? In this episode of White Horse Inn, Eric Landry, Justin Holcomb, and Bob Hiller talk about life between the “now” and the “not yet,” considering the role of virtue in the Christian life and how the law gives shape to the good life as we’re conformed to the image of Christ.

Right now we're still in the time of faith and yet the light is breaking in through a few cracks in the that the war is over and though you're still feeling the ramifications of it right now,

1:07.2	Hello and welcome to another edition of White Horse Inn.
1:10.0	We're talking about the good life in this month long series. I'm Eric Landry and I'm here today with Justin Holcomb and Bob Hiller.
1:17.0	Guys, so far we've tried to give some definition to the good life and we've also talked about what pursuing that life means even when life isn't good
1:27.3	In today's episode I'd like us to lift our eyes to the new creation the Bible tells us in 1st John 2, do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. So shouldn't the good life, at least as it's

1:50.1	longing for the world to come? It's an interesting question.
1:54.0	How do we think about our relationship to the world?
1:57.0	Those verses from John are so curious,
1:59.0	and if you're paying close attention,
2:01.0	they sound kind of like the opposite of what the Lord has said in another
2:04.9	place where we read in John 316, God so love the world. So first he tells us in first John,
