Faith, belief, and the fall of Jerusalem: what are we missing?

Описание: Is biblical faith just “belief”? What does salvation really mean in the Old and New Testaments? And was Jesus talking about the end of the world or Jerusalem’s fall in the Olivet Discourse?

In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird unpack the difference between faith and mere belief, showing how true biblical faith means trust, faithfulness, and allegiance to Jesus as King. Together, they trace how salvation unfolds from the Old Testament to the New, clarifying common misconceptions about justification and works. Finally, they explore the Olivet Discourse, explaining why Jesus’ words about the temple’s destruction matter for understanding the second coming— and how context shapes how we read prophecy today.
