Mike Winger idea 2018-04-18

Harold Camping's numerology: 7,000 years of creation history derived from combining Genesis 7:4 and 2 Peter 3:8

Mike now explains the mathematical system Camping used to arrive at his dates.

Genesis 7:4 2 Peter 3:8 Psalm 90:4 hermeneutics Harold Camping numerology
Mike Winger idea 2018-04-18

2 Peter 3:8 in context: the passage teaches God's patience and the unexpectedness of judgment — not a mathematical formula for calculating dates

Mike reads 2 Peter 3:8-11 in full to demonstrate that Camping's formula rips the verse from its actual argument.

Psalm 90:4 2 Peter 3:8-11 Second Coming hermeneutics Harold Camping
Mike Winger idea 2018-04-18

The Second Coming is by design unexpected; Christians differ from the world not in knowing the date but in being ready

Mike draws the practical theological conclusion from 2 Peter 3.

Second Coming eschatology thief in the night
Mike Winger idea 2019-03-20

Paul's apostolic authority confirmed by Peter and James; 2 Peter calls Paul's writings Scripture

Q&A: question about how Paul went from persecutor to authoritative apostle.

2 Peter 1:12-14 — Peter's awareness of his impending death and intent to leave a written legacy; response to Bart Ehrman's pseudonymity argument

Third biblical source for Peter's martyrdom awareness, with engagement with the Ehrman pseudonymity objection

2 Peter 1:12-14 Bart Ehrman apostolic martyrdom Peter the Apostle
Mike Winger idea 2019-05-30

2 Peter 2:1 — Christ bought even false prophets who deny him and face destruction, proving atonement extends beyond the elect

Winger uses 2 Peter 2:1 to demonstrate that Christ purchased those who are clearly not saved, refuting limited atonement.

2 Peter 2:1 false prophets limited atonement extent of atonement
Mike Winger idea 2019-05-30

Summary: multiple scriptures confirm universal extent, non-universal application; rejecting limited atonement does not require leaving Calvinism

Winger wraps up his scriptural case and notes that rejecting limited atonement does not require rejecting Calvinism wholesale.

Calvinism limited atonement TULIP
Mike Winger idea 2019-06-13

2 Peter 3:9: God is patient, not wishing any to perish but all to come to repentance

God's eschatological patience reveals his salvific desire

2 Peter 3:9 repentance 2 Peter 3:9 God's patience
Mike Winger idea 2019-07-24

2 Peter 2:1 — false teachers "bought" by the master yet will face swift destruction

Mike uses 2 Peter 2:1 to show Christ purchased those who ultimately perish.

2 Peter 2:1 false teachers 2 Peter 2:1 unlimited atonement
Mike Winger idea 2019-07-24

2 Peter 3:9 — God is not willing that any should perish but that all should reach repentance

Further Scripture evidence for God's universal salvific desire.

2 Peter 3:9 election repentance 2 Peter 3:9
Mike Winger idea 2019-08-07

2 Peter 3:9 — God delays judgment because He desires all to repent

Mike uses 2 Peter to explain the delay between God's wrath and its execution.

2 Peter 3:9 repentance divine patience 2 Peter 3:9
Mike Winger idea 2020-11-06

Luke 23:34 'Father forgive them' likely refers to delayed judgment / forgiveness offered, not full salvific pardon

Responding to Reid's question about whether unbelievers are forgiven to some degree, referencing Luke 23:34

Luke 23:34 2 Peter 3:9 Numbers typology cities of refuge high priest
Mike Winger idea 2020-11-20

2 Peter 2:5-6 does not settle the annihilationism debate

Question about whether 2 Peter 2:6 implies annihilation on final judgment day.

2 Peter 2:5-6 Sodom and Gomorrah hell annihilationism

Mike Winger idea 2021-01-15

Paul's conversion is credible because it was Apostolically ratified and his gospel was identical to the Twelve's — Joseph Smith fails both tests
