Episode Synopsis

In this episode, JP discusses the three Mention Principles that we will be taking with us on our journey through the Old Paths. They are the First Mention Principle, the Progressive Mention Principle, and the Full Mention Principle.
The First Mention Principle states that the first mention of a subject or truth in the Bible has special significance and can give us insight into God's mind on that topic. JP gives an example of this with the first mention of Egypt, which is a symbol of sin in the Bible. You will see how the first mention of Egypt led to Abraham compromising with the world and causing shame and disgrace.
The Progressive Mention Principle is one where God reveals more and more details over the course of the Bible. JP uses the example of predictions of the coming Messiah to illustrate this principle.
The Full Mention Principle is where God gathers all the scattered information on a topic and puts it into one comprehensive statement. JP gives an example of this principle on the resurrection found in 1 Corinthians 15.
