#92 - Kyle Thompson // Yeah, That’s Not What That Means - Romans 8:28 & Jeremiah 29:11
Manage episode 481306764 series 3625879
The second episode in our "Yeah, That's Not What That Means" series tackles two commonly misinterpreted Bible verses: Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11, revealing how prosperity preachers have twisted these passages to falsely promise believers guaranteed success and material prosperity.
• Clarifying that Jeremiah 29:11 was specifically addressed to Jewish exiles in Babylon, promising their restoration after 70 years
• Examining the full context of Jeremiah 29:10-14 to understand God's specific historical promise
• Breaking down Romans 8:28 alongside verses 29-30 which define what "good" God works toward
• Explaining that God's ultimate purpose is conforming believers to Christ's image, not guaranteeing worldly success
• Highlighting how the biblical narrative consistently shows Christians will experience suffering rather than constant prosperity
• Encouraging proper scriptural interpretation that considers historical context and complete passages
Stay tuned for tomorrow's episode covering one of the most annoyingly misapplied passages in the entire Bible – particularly relevant if you're a pacifist.
