Each of us is the owner of a seemingly random collection of theologies, doctrines, and superstitions. It' s a junk drawer of religious ideas and influences. It' s the witticisms your grandmother tossed around with ease that sounded like they came from a religious text. It' s an insight gleaned about God from a half-heard sermon at a friend' s church. It' s the mental screenshot of a meme shared on social media. It' s the empowering idea you underlined...

The most important questions anyone can ask are: Why was Jesus Christ crucified? Why did he suffer so much? What has this to do with me? Finally, who sent him to his death? The answer to the last question is that God did. Jesus was God's Son. The suffering was unsurpassed, but the whole message of the Bible leads to this answer.
The central issue of Jesus' death is not the cause, but the meaning. That is what this book is about. John Piper has gathered...

Although it is a foundational confession for all Christians, much of the theological significance of Jesus's identity as "the Son of God" is often overlooked or misunderstood. Moreover, this Christological concept stands at the center of today's Bible translation debates and increased ministry efforts to Muslims. New Testament scholar D. A. Carson thus sheds light on this important issue with his usual exegetical clarity and theological insight, first...

Before the church can arise and shake the world for the Lord, it must bring back the truth of God's Word. The church needs to make the declaration to "Tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help us God."
Wells of Living Waters is a message of the Holy Spirit for the church to remain strongly rooted in the foundational truths inherent in God's Word. Its purpose is to bring back those foundational teachings that Satan has been...

In spite of the availability of God's amazing grace to all persons all over the world, there are many, even Christians, who still fail to make full use of it. They continue to struggle in every area of their lives even though they have complete access to the supernatural provisions of God available in His grace. Sam presents a well-thought out case for vigorously pursuing a real and personal encounter with God's grace both for Christians and non-Christians...

From its English publication in 1973, Jurgen Moltmann's The Crucified God garnered much attention, and it has become one of the seminal texts of twentieth-century theology. Following up on his groundbreaking Theology of Hope, The Crucified God established the cross as the foundation for Christian hope. Moltmann's dramatic innovation was to see the cross not as a problem of theodicy, but instead as an act of ultimate solidarity, between God and humanity....

God's ultimate plan before Creation included a radical change at the Cross. To enact this dramatic change, God performed two important acts on the Day of Pentecost. First, the heavenly Father sent the Holy Spirit to place believers in Christ (1 Cor. 12:13; Eph. 1:4). Second, the Father had placed all sinners in Christ at the Cross (Rom. 6:6; Gal. 2:20); when Christ died, all sinners died to their old life and could now be saved by simply believing...

"Images increasingly saturate our world, making present to us what is distant or obscure. Yet the power of images also arises from what they do not make present-from a type of absence they do not dispel. Joining a growing multidisciplinary conversation that rejects an understanding of images as lifeless objects, this book offers a theological meditation on the ways images convey presence into our world. Just as Christ negates himself in order to manifest...

What the Person and Work of Jesus Really Means
Christians, rightly called "people of the cross," look to Jesus's death and resurrection as the central points of his earthly mission. But in order to understand more fully the person and work of Christ, it's important for believers to fix their minds on his entire ministry-his life, death, resurrection, and ongoing ministry today-and not solely on his work on the cross.
In Man of Sorrows, King of Glory,...

The biblical teaching about the deity of Christ is a precious truth and foundational to the Christian faith. It has been called "the most distinctively Christian doctrine of all"-one that must be taught and preserved.
With this in mind, Robert Peterson, Christopher Morgan, Andreas Köstenberger, Steve Wellum, Gerald Bray, Alan Gomes, Ray Ortlund Jr., Stephen Nichols, and J. Nelson Jennings have collaborated to develop a theology of Christ's divinity...

The question of Jesus's divinity has been at the epicenter of theological discussion since the early church. At the Council of Nicea in AD 325, the church fathers affirmed that Jesus the Son of God is "true God from true God." Today, creeds such as this are professed in churches across the world, and yet there remains confusion as to who Jesus is. To some, Jesus is a radical prophet-nothing more than a footnote in history. To others, Jesus is the...

"From beginning to end, Scripture unveils from shadow to reality that Jesus is God the Son incarnate."
Some people think of Jesus as a great prophet or a wise philosopher; others see him as an important religious leader or even a revolutionary. In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, Stephen Wellum challenges these claims as he argues for the divinity of Jesus according to Scripture and in line with creedal Christianity....

The belief that Christ is the God-man is definitive of Christian orthodoxy and imperative to a right understanding of the gospel. By the middle of the fifth century, the church had wrestled with many challenges to the biblical portrayal of Christ and, in response to those challenges, had formulated the doctrine of Christ that remains the standard to this day. This look to the past helps as Christians contend with present-day challenges and seek to...

This is the definitive story of Jesus Christ coming back to enlighten mankind. The Bible indicates that the End Times countdown would begin when mankind got the ability to wipe himself out and the state of Israel was established. Those situations would trigger the birth of the messiah for the last time to prepare mankind for Judgment Day. The messiah would rule with an iron rod, turn the swords into plowshares, end war, overthrow the Lawless One,...

Jesus Christ is the most written about and proclaimed figure of all of history. Why, then, are people so confused as to who He is? Why are Christian churches redefining Him to suit the culture and their own preferences? This book challenges the idea of a Jesus remake. It is the author's understanding of Him from well over sixty-five years of a personal relationship and study. It aims toward those who have given up on Jesus, because the portrayal of...
