Pisteuomen - πιστευομεν - T. Michael W. Halcomb

It's pretty frequent that my friend Mr. Tilling gives Bultmann a good slap in the face. So, when I found this "look-alike meter", I decided I'd settle the issue once and for all. I asked the look-alike meter: Meter, who looks more like satan (that is, Mel Gibson's satan)? Well, I'm not a Bultmannee, so, I didn't rig the results; nope, the meter spoke for itself. However, I'm not sure that Tilling will take these results as the last word.

Recently, I had the opportunity to interview Chris Tilling of the infamous blog, Chrisendom. As usual, he was witty, humorous and quite plebian (he even signed into the Pisteuomen Chat Room under the name "CheapAndCheerful." And somehow, he got us sidetracked onto the topic of "knickers.") Anyways, what follows is a transcript of the interview; I'm sure you'll enjoy it. After you read the interview, be sure to check out Tilling's site at the following link: Chrisendom . Question : So, Chris, tell us a little bit about yourself. Where are you originally from? Where are you studying? And, What are a couple of goals you have set for yourself in the field of biblical studies? Answer : Well, thanks for this wee in interview, Michael. Those who read my blog will know that I’m a pale-faced, large-stomached Englishman with a soft-spot for cakes and, well, food generally really. That’s about it! Let me think....Fat. No, I said that. Umm, well, I am a theology/NT-...

Readers of Pisteuomen, I have added two blogs to the blogroll. The first is Chrisendom , hosted by Chris Tilling (see my interview with Chris in the previous post) and the second is Theologie und Gemeinschaft (Theology and Community) by Dr. Jim West. For some reason, it wouldn't have felt right adding one without the other; don't ask me why! Anyways, if you love sarcasm and/or nonsensical banter with a theological twist, check out these blogs if you haven't already.

Still thinking about the subject of universalism, well, why not read some of Chris Tilling's recent posts? Click the following links for an entree of universalist ingenuity: Post 1 , Post 2 , Post 3 , Post 4 , Post 5 and Post 6 . After admitting that he forgot he was currently doing a series on universalism (don't worry Chris, as the Uni's believe, there will be no hell to pay for that!), he promised more to come. So, keep checking his site by clicking the following link: Chrisendom .
