The Final Article(s) on Last Things

If you just can't manage to read all the way through the PDF that contains the proposed revision to the Statement of Faith all of the revised articles are now posted on this blog. Even so, I encourage you to take the time to read the proposal; it gives great insight into the thoughts and considerations that went into making the changes that are being proposed. I interacted with a few of those ideas and plan on continuing to do so in the days between the Mid-winter and the National Leadership Conference in Colorado (should the Lord tarry).

Now, here's the last installment of the articles:

The Proposed Revison to the EFCA Statement of Faith
10. Response to God’s gospel determines the eternal destiny of every person –
We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead: of the unbeliever to judgment and eternal conscious punishment, and of the believer to eternal blessedness and joy with the Lord, to the praise of His glorious grace. Amen.

The Original EFCA Statement of Faith
12. In the bodily resurrection of the dead; of the believer to everlasting blessedness and joy with the Lord; of the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment.
