#118 // Dr. Samuel Parkison | The Transfiguration And The Substance Of The Glorified Christian

In this episode, I got to talk with Dr. Samuel Parkison. Dr. Parkison has his M.Div, Th.M., and Ph.D. from the Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is currently the Associate Professor of Theological Studies at Gulf Theological Seminary in the United Arab Emirates. He has authored several books including Proclaiming the Triune God: The Doctrine of the Trinity in the Life of the Church, Irresistible Beauty: Beholding Triune Glory in the Face of Jesus Christ, and his newest book, To Gaze Upon God: The Beatific Vision in Doctrine, Tradition, and Practice.

Dr. Parkison and I discussed the lost beatific doctrine. We talked about what it is, where it can be seen in Scripture, and how the doctrine has developed through church history. We also discussed the transfiguration of Christ and the theological implications of that event. Finally, we talked about the glory and substance found in the glorified Christian in Heaven. I hope you enjoy!
