17-Earthly Things and Heavenly Things

Covenant Hermeneutics and Biblical Eschatology - A podcast by Kim Burgess and Gary DeMar - Tuesdays

In John 3, Jesus asks Nicodemus: "If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things?" On today's episode, Kim shows the Bible's consistent hermeneutic about the covenantal administrations of God's Kingdom and the difference between them. One is earthy and the other is heavenly, one is physical and the other spiritual, one is temporal and the other eternal. But heavenly, spiritual, and eternal does not mean unreal or gnostic. In fact, it means the exact opposite.
