Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought.

Download or read book Romans written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Knowing the Bible series is a new resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God's Word. Each 12-week study leads participants through one book of the Bible and is made up of four basic components: (1) Reflection questions designed to help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) "Gospel Glimpses" highlighting the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) "Whole-Bible Connections" showing how any given passage connects to the Bible's overarching story of redemption culminating in Christ; and (4) "Theological Soundings" identifying how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from a wide array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God's grace on each and every page of the Bible. The book of Romans was Paul's greatest literary achievement, a majestic letter in which the apostle expounds on crucial doctrines such as original sin, election, substitutionary atonement, the role of the law, and justification by faith alone. Plumbing the theological depths, Jared Wilson writes with a pastor's eye toward understanding and application as he explains the biblical text with clarity and passion, helping readers follow along as Paul recounts the history of salvation and illuminates the glories of the cross of Christ.

Download or read book The Book of Revelation Uncovered written by Samuel Jungsoo Kim and published by 도서출판 의제당. This book was released on 2023-03-06 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Revelation is a prophecy of “things which must shortly take place” in the last days. The climax of Revelation is when the seventh trumpet blasts. That will be the second coming of Jesus in the air and the moment the righteous will enter the glory of the first resurrection and rapture. Those who “overcame” the harsh oppression and persecution of the beast rising out of the sea and the other beast coming up out of the earth “shall all be changed--in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet” (1 Cor 15:51) blast and raptured. However, all sinners, including Christian sinners, will remain on this earth and receive seven bowls of God’s wrath. Then comes the Millennial Kingdom, the Second Resurrection of sinners, and the Eternal Judgment. God’s providence ends with the righteous entering the “New Jerusalem,” the City of Heaven, coming down from above. There the righteous will enjoy eternal rest and happiness. Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!
Download or read book The Righteousness of God written by Charles Lee Irons and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advocates of the New Perspective on Paul appeal to the view that "righteousness" in biblical theology is a Verhaltnisbegriff (relational concept). This is the view that "righteousness" does not mean conformity to a norm, nor is it an essentially legal concept; rather, "righteousness" denotes the fulfillment of the demands of a relationship, since the relationship itself is the norm. This relational interpretation of "righteousness" was first put forward by Hermann Cremer in 1899 and exercised a profound influence in biblical scholarship throughout the 20th century. It lies at the root of the New Perspective claim that "the righteousness of God" in Paul is a cipher for God's saving faithfulness to his covenant, a view defended by N. T. Wright, among others. Charles Lee Irons provides a critical examination of Cremer's chief arguments for the relational, covenant-faithfulness interpretation. The author argues instead for the view that "the righteousness of God" in Rom 1:17; 3: 21-22; 10:3; 2 Cor 5:21; and Phil 3:9 is the status of righteousness that comes from God as a gift.

This is critical revelation for our nation to experience the healing of our land. America's destiny, as a nation, needs you to KNOW God's great love for you, please don't disappoint her. READ THE VISION IN THIS BOOK AND RUN WITH IT! (Habakkuk 2:2) David Vesely is first an American Patriot, who loves God and loves his country. He is also a minister/teacher of the gospel. David is director of Taking America Back-2014 an organization founded to restore God's righteousness in the major institutions of American public life. Other areas of ministry he has been involved in include: church planting; prison ministry; Christian school teaching and administration; pastoral armorbearer; and ministry of helps director. He is also a 2nd year graduate of Supernatural Ministries Training Institute (SMTI), a school specializing in ministry of helps and ministerial practicalities. There is a zeal and excitement within David to see America turn back to God. He is also equally passionate about the Church-the body of Christ "walking in" ALL the blessings of inheritance Jesus died for. A major key in turning America back to God is found in the church receiving and operating in their spiritual inheritance. One of David's favorite sayings is, "IF JESUS DIED TO GIVE IT TO ME, I WANT IT!" Can you say the same?

The overall intent of the book is to inform and inspire believers to live righteously before God.
Download or read book The Gospel of God 1 written by Watchman Nee and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 1993-05-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salvation is simple in nature, wonderful in scope, and dynamic in application. The firm foundation of our redemption is based on bedrock truths which frame the content of the gospel of God. In this two-volume set of The Gospel of God Watchman Nee presents the content of God’s salvation, including man’s sin; God’s love, grace, and mercy; the nature of grace; the function of the law and God’s righteousness; the work of Christ and the Holy Spirit; eternal security; and God’s dealing with the believer’s sins. These messages are comprehensive, ranging from man’s sinful condition before salvation to his destiny in the coming age. Christian growth depends upon a dynamically operative faith, and an essential ingredient for growing in Christ is a clear understanding of the truth which supports this faith. Spoken in 1937 in Shanghai, China, these messages effectively demonstrate Watchman Nee’s burden to help all believers in the truth of God’s salvation.
