April 10, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Eschatology, Star Trek

I recently re-watched Star Trek Generations, the movie that had both Captain Kirk and Captain Picard. I had not seen it since it came out in 1994. It turns out the film is a debate about the meaning of life after death. It’s about eschatology. The plot of Generations centers around an extra-dimensional reality called

The Call to Live in Light of the Coming World, 2 Peter 3:10-13
