Does command command genocide? Does Jesus love the Canaanites (those cleared out by Joshua's conquests for the promised land)? We're talking with Randal Rauser who has debated on this topic and authored (and is authoring) books discussing this topic. "Randal Rauser is a systematic and analytic theologian of evangelical persuasion. He is driven by apologetic concerns and above all by the tireless pursuit of truth. The downside is that this requires him to recognize when he is wrong (which is often) for truth is complex and it offers us no guarantees that we shall always find it. At the same time, Randal does not despair of finding truth, for he believes that in a profound sense Jesus Christ is the truth. For Randal, being like Jesus means knowing the truth, loving the truth, and living the truth. As Randal seeks to live the truth he promotes a culture of life that is anti-militaristic and pro-family, pro-environment and anti-abortion, anti-consumerist and pro-animal. A disciple on the way … alas, he is not half as smart or as good or as right as he thinks he is."

Today we are talking with Dr Ian Paul about the book of Revelation, its relevance to today. We'll be looking at how it is often misused and misread but also discussing his new book on how to access Revelation without requiring a degree in theology. Dr Paul has a background in mathematics but after working in industrial business, he was ordained in the Church of England where he did a PhD on metaphor in Paul Ricoeur and the Book of Revelation. Dr Paul has been involved in diocesan education and a member of the General Synod of the Church of England. He has also taught New Testament and Practical theology and was Dean of Studies from 2005 to 2012 at St John's, Nottingham. Since 2013, Dr Paul has written, researched and spoken in a freelance capacity.
