InformatIon<br />
Throughout the last century theologians gave great attention to the doctrine of the trinity and<br />
succeeded in restoring it to a central place in Christian thought. But as they highlighted the<br />
novelty of the revolutionary new trinitarianism, a number of generalizations and simplifications<br />
crept into the discussion. The 2014 Los angeles Theology Conference, “advancing trinitarian<br />
Theology,” makes constructive progress in the doctrine of the trinity by highlighting the counterrevolutionary<br />
trends in the most recent trinitarian thought and aligning the trinitarian revival<br />
with the ongoing task of retrieving the classical doctrine of the trinity.<br />
CaLL for PaPers<br />

theme. Papers that engage the theological tradition as a means of theological retrieval are<br />
most welcome. abstracts of no more than 200 words should be sent to Latheology@gmail.com<br />
before october 11, 2013. an acceptable paper will be approximately 3,500 words.<br />

An Authentically Evangelical Theology with the Gospel as Its Center<br />
Evangelical Theology is a systematic theology written from the perspective of a biblical scholar. Michael F. Bird contends that the<br />
center, unity, and boundary of the evangelical faith is the evangel, as opposed to things like justification by faith or inerrancy. The<br />
evangel or gospel is the unifying thread in evangelical theology and the theological hermeneutic through which the various loci of<br />
theology need to be understood.<br />
Using the gospel as a theological leitmotif—an approach to Christian doctrine that begins with the gospel and sees each locus<br />
through the lens of the gospel—this text presents an authentically evangelical theology, as opposed to a traditional systematic<br />
theology written by an evangelical theologian.<br />
According to the author, theology is the drama of gospelizing—performing and living out the gospel in the theatre of Christian<br />
life. The text features tables, sidebars, and questions for discussion. The end of every part includes a “What to Take Home” section<br />
that gives students a rundown on what they need to know. And since reading theology can often be dry and cerebral, the author<br />
applies his unique sense of humor in occasional “Comic Belief ” sections so that students may enjoy their learning experience<br />
through some theological humor added for good measure.<br />

Pilgrim Theology<br />
Core Doctrines for Christian Disciples<br />
michael horton<br />
“Serving as a well-trained guide, Michael Horton offers a stunningly accessible tour of the classic<br />
Reformed landscape. Using the markers of drama, doctrine, doxology, and discipleship, Pilgrim<br />
Theology provides a compass to lead the thoughtful reader on a journey to better understand<br />
their faith, history, and why it all matters. A wonderful and much-needed resource that will serve<br />
us all for years to come.”<br />
—kelly m. kapic, Covenant College<br />
The 2011 award-winning publication The Christian Faith garnered wide praise as a thorough, wellinformed<br />
treatment of the philosophical foundations of Christian theology, the classical elements<br />
of systematic theology, and exegesis of relevant biblical texts. Pilgrim Theology distills the distinctive<br />
benefits of this approach into a more accessible introduction designed for classroom and group study.<br />
In this book, Michael Horton guides readers through a preliminary exploration of Christian theology<br />
in “a Reformed key.” Horton reviews the biblical passages that give rise to a particular doctrine in<br />
addition to surveying past and present interpretations. Also included are sidebars showing the key<br />
distinctions readers need to grasp on a particular subject, helpful charts and tables illuminating<br />
exegetical and historical topics, and questions at the end of each chapter.<br />
More than simply an abridgment of The Christian Faith, this new text has been rewritten<br />
for a new and wider audience. Pilgrim Theology is an ideal text for teaching theology to<br />
undergraduate students.<br />

Professor of Systematic Theology and Apologetics at Westminster Seminary California.<br />

A Systematic Exposition of John Wesley’s Theology<br />
John Wesley’s Teachings is the first systematic exposition of John Wesley’s theology that encompasses all of his writings. Wesley was a prolific<br />
writer and commentator on Scripture—his collected works fill twenty-four volumes—and yet it is commonly held that he was not systematic<br />
or consistent in his theology and teachings.<br />
On the contrary, Thomas C. Oden demonstrates that Wesley displayed a remarkable degree of internal consistency over sixty years of<br />
preaching and ministry. This series of four volumes is a text-by-text guide to John Wesley’s teachings. It introduces Wesley’s thought on the<br />
basic tenets of Christian teaching: God and providence (volume 1), Christ and salvation (volume 2), the practice of pastoral care (volume 3),<br />
and issues of ethics and society (volume 4).<br />
In everyday modern English, Oden clarifies Wesley’s explicit intent and communicates his meaning clearly to a contemporary audience.<br />
Both lay and professional readers will find this series useful for devotional reading, moral reflection, sermon preparation, and for referencing<br />
Wesley’s opinions on ecological recovery, moral relativism, enthusiasm, catholicity, experience, paradise, final justification, providence, and<br />
countless others.<br />

Christology, Ancient and Modern<br />
Explorations in Constructive Dogmatics<br />
Oliver D. Crisp and Fred Sanders, Editors<br />
Christology was the central doctrine articulated by the early church councils, and it remains<br />
the subject of vigorous theological investigation today. The doctrine of Christ is a field of broad<br />
ecumenical convergence, inviting theologians from all denominational settings to fruitful<br />
collaborative exploration. In the contemporary setting, it is especially crucial for theologians<br />
to investigate the scriptural witness afresh, to retrieve classical criteria and categories from<br />
the tradition, and to consider the generative pressure of soteriology for Christology proper.<br />
The first annual Los Angeles Theology Conference sought to make a positive contribution to<br />
contemporary dogmatics in intentional engagement with the Christian tradition. Christology,<br />
Ancient and Modern brings together conference proceedings, surveying the field and articulating<br />
the sources, norms, and criteria for constructive theological work in Christology.<br />
OLIVER D. CRISP (PhD, King’s College, London) is professor of systematic theology at Fuller<br />
Theological Seminary in Pasadena, California.<br />
FRED SANDERS (PhD, Graduate Theological Union) is associate professor of theology in the Torrey<br />
Honors Institute at Biola University in La Mirada, California.<br />

Five Views on Biblical Inerrancy<br />
J. Merrick and stephen m. garrett, general editors<br />
There is little doubt that the inerrancy of the Bible is a current and often contentious topic among<br />
evangelicals. Five Views on Biblical Inerrancy represents a timely contribution by showcasing the<br />
spectrum of evangelical positions on inerrancy, facilitating understanding of these perspectives,<br />
particularly where and why they diverge.<br />
Contributors and views include:<br />
• R. Albert Mohler: When the Bible Speaks God Speaks, The Classic Doctrine of Biblical Inerrancy<br />
• Peter Enns: Inerrancy However Defined, Does Not Describe What the Bible Does<br />
• Michael F. Bird: Inerrancy Is Not Necessary for Evangelicalism Outside the USA<br />

• John R. Franke: Recasting Inerrancy—The Bible as Witness to Missional Plurality<br />
Each essay in Five Views on Biblical Inerrancy considers:<br />
• The present context and the viability and relevance for the contemporary evangelical<br />
Christian witness<br />
• Whether and to what extent Scripture teaches its own inerrancy<br />
• The position’s assumed/implied understandings of the nature of Scripture, God, and truth<br />
• Three difficult biblical texts, one that concerns intra-canonical contradictions, one that raises<br />
questions of theological plurality, and one that concerns historicity<br />

edition<br />
Church History offers a unique contextual view of how the Christian church spread and<br />
developed. It did so not in a vacuum, but in a setting of times, cultures, and events that both<br />
influenced and were influenced by the church. Church History looks closely at the integral link<br />
between the history of the world and that of the church.<br />
The second edition of Church History, Volume One explores the development of the church<br />
from the days of Jesus to the years prior to the Reformation. Filled with maps, charts, and<br />
illustrations, it offers overviews of the Roman, Greek, and Jewish worlds; insights into the<br />
church’s relationship to the Roman Empire, with glimpses into pagan attitudes toward<br />
Christians; the place of art and architecture, literature and philosophy, both sacred and secular;<br />
and much more, spanning the time from the first through the thirteenth centuries.<br />
everett ferguson (PhD, Harvard) is professor emeritus of Bible and distinguished scholar-inresidence<br />

Historical Theology<br />
An Introduction to Christian Doctrine<br />
Gregg R. Allison<br />
Following a topical-chronological structure and using Wayne Grudem’s Systematic Theology<br />
as a template, this book traces the historical development of the most significant evangelical<br />
doctrines from the early church into the Middle Ages, across the Reformation and post-<br />
Reformation eras, and through the modern period. Unlike the vast majority of historical theology<br />
books, it is first arranged topically—chapters treat the inspiration of Scripture, the Trinity, the<br />
atonement, the Holy Spirit, justification, the nature of the church, and the final judgment and<br />
eternal punishment; thirty-three doctrines in all—then developed chronologically, with each<br />
doctrine traced through the four periods.<br />
Limiting references to the most significant church leaders, biblical scholars, and theologians<br />
who have contributed to the development of these doctrines, Historical Theology cites the<br />
actual words of Cyprian, Augustine, Aquinas, Luther, Calvin, Barth, and others to stimulate a<br />
sense of connection with the past.<br />

Patterned after the all-American baseball card, Theologian Trading Cards<br />
provide essential information about the major teachers, leaders, and<br />
troublemakers throughout the history of the church. At a glance you will<br />
have access to information regarding nearly 300 important figures in<br />
church history, including when and where they lived, their contributions<br />
to the church, and their enduring significance. Each figure has been placed<br />
on the roster of one of 15 “theological” or “historical” teams—including the<br />
Orthodoxy Dodgers (Heretics); St. James Padres (Church Fathers of the<br />
Patristic Era); and the Wittenberg Whistle-Blowers (Early Reformers and<br />
Later Lutheran Church)—which aid readers in discovering the practical,<br />
chronological, and theological connections between figures. Theologian<br />
Trading Cards are perfect for students taking a church history or historical<br />
theology course who want a memorable study aid, as well as for nonstudents<br />
who just want to learn history or collect these unique cards.<br />

Biographical: Born to a pagan father and a devout<br />
Chris tian mother in Tagaste, North Africa, Augustine<br />
of Hippo pursued fame as a teacher of rhetoric. His<br />
journey led him through various philosophical systems,<br />
including Manicheanism. Not until he heard the<br />
preaching of Ambrose while teaching in Milan did he<br />
convert to Chris tian ity.<br />
Significance: Augustine of Hippo is perhaps the most<br />
influential post-apostolic figure in the history of the<br />
church. He quickly rose to the position of bishop and<br />
found himself at the center of theological controversies,<br />
during which he made contributions to Chris tian<br />
theology. Responding to the Donatist controversy, he<br />
articulated the doctrine of the visible and invisible<br />
church; in response to Pelagius, his related doctrines<br />
of the will, sin, and grace are significant. Augustine also<br />
contributed to developing Trinitarian doctrine, offering a<br />
powerful construal of the church’s relation to the wider<br />
culture. His most recognized written works include<br />
Confessions, On Chris tian Doctrine, The City of God,<br />
On the Trinity, and On Free Choice of the Will.<br />
Biographical: Born to a wealthy French noble family,<br />
Bernard of Clairvaux decided at the age of 21 to<br />
embrace asceticism as a monk, taking up residence<br />
at the Abbey of Citeaux, the first established by the<br />
Cistercian order.<br />
Significance: In 1115, Bernard was named abbot of<br />
the Cistercian monastery at Clairvaux that he helped<br />
to establish. He was theologically traditional and politically<br />
influential; he advocated reliance on the church<br />
fathers and Scripture during a time when scholastic<br />
theology and the synthesis of faith and reason began<br />
to prevail. At the Council of Sens in 1140, Bernard<br />
secured the condemnation of the scholastic theologian<br />
and philosopher Peter Abelard. When a dispute arose<br />
between two rival popes, Anacletus II and Innocent II,<br />
Bernard’s endorsement of Innocent secured Innocent’s<br />
election to the papacy. Bernard was even called to<br />
travel throughout Europe preaching to cultivate support<br />
for the Second Crusade. He was a prolific writer;<br />
examples include his theological works Grace and<br />
Free-will and On Loving God, along with his famous<br />
86 Sermons on the Song of Solomon.<br />
Biographical: John Calvin originally was expected to<br />
enter the priesthood, and later was trained as a lawyer.<br />
He studied Latin and Greek, philosophy, and law at the<br />
universities of Paris, Orleans, and Bourges. In Paris,<br />
he was influenced by humanism and Martin Luther’s<br />
teachings. Following a sudden conversion to Protestant<br />
Chris tian ity, Calvin separated from the Roman Catholic<br />
Church, leaving France to live in exile in Basel.<br />
Significance: Perhaps second in historical significance<br />
only to Martin Luther, John Calvin’s influence as a Protestant<br />
Reformer is tremendous. In 1536, he published<br />
the first edition of the Institutes of the Chris tian<br />
Religion. This same year, he accepted Guillaume<br />
Farel’s invitation to Geneva to advance the Reformation.<br />
Genevans first resisted Calvin’s efforts toward<br />
strict moral reform, forcing him to leave Geneva until<br />
1541. During his expulsion, Martin Bucer invited<br />
Calvin to lead the congregation in Strasbourg. Calvin<br />
authored a prolific array of theological, exegetical, and<br />
pastoral works and is recognized as the primary figure<br />
galvanizing the Reformed Protestant movement.<br />
Biographical: After his generally liberal education, Karl<br />
Barth served as a Reformed pastor in his native Switzerland<br />
(1909 – 21). Finding liberalism to be bankrupt, he began to<br />
rethink the modern theological task with the aid of Scripture and<br />
the older Reformed tradition. Particularly as a consequence of<br />
his first Romans commentary (Der Römerbrief, 1919), he soon<br />
transitioned to the university context; he spent his career in Göttingen,<br />
Münster, Bonn, and Basel. He was the primary author of<br />
the Barmen Declaration (1934), through which the Confessing<br />
Church stood against Nazism, and wrote one of the greatest<br />
theological works ever composed, the Church Dogmatics.<br />
Significance: Karl Barth is widely considered the most<br />
significant theologian of the 20th century and, among<br />
Protestants, even since the Reformation. His early theology is<br />
marked by its realization that “God is God ”— entirely different<br />
from creatures — and by its use of dialectic. Accordingly, he<br />
rejected every human basis for the knowledge of God, whether<br />
rational or experiential, and instead argued that God is known<br />
only through Jesus Christ. While never rejecting these earlier<br />
emphases, Barth’s later theology is marked by a deepened<br />
appreciation for the definitive nature of God’s determination to<br />
be ours in Jesus Christ.<br />
Biographical: A German Lutheran pastor, theologian,<br />
and martyr, Dietrich Bonhoeffer is one of the most<br />
well-known figures of the 20th century church. He<br />
was trained in theology at the universities of Tübingen<br />
and Berlin, followed by postgraduate studies at Union<br />
Theological Seminary in New York. His mark on the<br />
20th century is his resistance to the Nazi regime.<br />
Significance: Lecturing in Berlin when Adolf Hitler<br />
came to power in 1933, Dietrich Bonhoeffer actively<br />
supported the Confessing Church and the Barmen<br />
Declaration, and played a central role in a failed plot<br />
to assassinate Hitler. Consequently, he was arrested<br />
in 1943, and executed on April 8, 1945. Bonhoeffer<br />
composed many writings, including The Cost of Discipleship,<br />
Life Together, and Letters and Papers from<br />
Prison. The latter has been a source of much discussion.<br />
Interestingly, and perhaps prophetically, recognizing<br />
the increasingly marginalized role of Chris tian ity with the<br />
rise of secular culture, Bonhoeffer speaks of the need<br />
for a “religionless Chris tian ity” in “a world come of age,”<br />
moving beyond eschatological hope to Christ’s example<br />
of love and just action in a suffering world.<br />

droves. Both Martin and Gregory, separated by two centuries,<br />
were bishops of Tours. Gregory wrote the Life of St. Martin,<br />
featuring his supernatural wonders. But Martin had been<br />
a legend in his own time. Today more than three thousand<br />
churches are dedicated to him in France alone.<br />
The story most often associated with Martin (c. 316 – 397)<br />
touches his life as a Hungarian cavalry officer. He is leading<br />
a regiment of troops through the countryside on a blustery<br />
winter day when he encounters a beggar. Instead of kicking<br />
him out of the way with his boot, which might have been a<br />
normal response, Martin stops, takes off his warm cape, and<br />
wraps it around the pitiful vagabond, thus easing his own<br />
conscience. What happens next changes his life. Glancing<br />
again at the man, he realizes that the beggar now clothed<br />
in his cape is actually Jesus. Transformed, Martin leaves the<br />
military, founds a monastery, and works miracles.<br />
Gregory of Tours (c. 538 – 594) was born into a family with<br />
a long clerical lineage. Reportedly, thirteen of the eighteen previous<br />
bishops of Tours were related to him, including his great<br />
grandfather Gregory of Langres (in an era when bishops were<br />
fathers and grandfathers). An inspirational writer, Gregory endeavored<br />
to “fire others with that enthusiasm by which the saints<br />
deservedly climbed to heaven,” while at the same time exposing<br />
heresy. But his most noted work was Historia Francorum<br />
(History of the Franks), a work that stood alone for centuries<br />
with little challenge, serving yet today as a key primary source.<br />

he chief importance of Marcion in the<br />
second century lies in the reaction which<br />
he provoked among the leaders of the Apostolic<br />
Churches. Just as Marcion’s canon<br />
stimulated the more precise defining of the<br />
NT canon by the Catholic Church, not to supersede<br />
but to supplement the canon heologian of the and humanist, Jacques Lefèvre d’Étaples (c. 1450 – 1536) paved the way for the Reformed<br />

causes. The majority of contemporary<br />
Africans and people living in traditional<br />
societies still tend to be more concerned<br />
with the uniqueness of things and to<br />
think in terms of personal causes. When<br />
Britons, during World War II, thought<br />
that they would be hit by a bomb only<br />
if it “had my name on it,” they were<br />
adopting very much the same attitude.<br />
“It won’t happen to me. I’m different” is<br />
a fairly common way of expressing the<br />
converse of this attitude.<br />

In the early 1960s Fred Welbourn both a personal and a communal affair.<br />
observed a young Muganda (a member<br />
of the Buganda people of southern Uganda) who was awarded a university scholarship to<br />
study in Britain. On his way to the airport at the start of his journey, he suddenly went<br />
blind and his head began to ache terribly. He was taken home and consulted a diviner. He<br />
was told that he had been chosen by a spirit to be its medium and that unless he accepted the<br />
choice he might go mad. Many Africans — though not always so highly educated — have<br />
had similar experiences; and in Buganda their initiation takes some such form as follows.<br />
On the appointed night, the young man and his relatives went to the shrine of a<br />
diviner, where a fire was kept burning throughout the rite. They were washed with water<br />
from Lake Victoria, and the juice of leaves was smeared on their heads. They were given<br />
branches and spears to hold. The diviner’s assistants started to beat drums in a peculiar<br />
rhythm, shake rattles, and sing special spirit songs. After this had been going on for some<br />
time, the initiate started to shake.<br />
The drumming and singing grew<br />
wilder. The shaking affected him<br />
more and more violently until he<br />
rose and started to dance wildly.<br />

just emerging as a network of trading companies, and there were no other European or “Chris tian” empires to<br />

imposes peace by dominating all opponents by force<br />
or arms. At the same time, areas remaining free from<br />
control by Muslim rulers are viewed as the “realm<br />

administration of Sharia law.<br />
This is why Muslims throughout history have<br />

Understanding World Religions<br />
An Interdisciplinary Approach<br />
Irving hexham<br />
Globalization and high-speed communication put twenty-first century people in contact with<br />
adherents to a wide variety of world religions, but valuable knowledge of these other traditions is<br />
often limited at best. Religious stereotypes abound, hampering a serious exploration of unfamiliar<br />
philosophies and practices. The popular idea that all religions lead to the same God or the same moral<br />
life fails to account for the distinctive origins and radically different teachings found across the world’s<br />
many religions.<br />
Understanding World Religions presents religion as a complex and intriguing matrix of history,<br />
philosophy, culture, beliefs, and practices. Hexham believes that a certain degree of objectivity and<br />
critique is inherent in the study of religion, and he guides readers in responsible ways of carrying this<br />
out. Of particular importance is Hexham’s decision to explore African religions, which have frequently<br />
been absent from major religion texts. He surveys these in addition to varieties of Hinduism,<br />
Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.<br />

Christian Apologetics<br />
An Anthology of Primary Sources<br />
chad v. meister and khaldoun a. sweis<br />
Christian Apologetics: An Anthology of Primary Sources makes available over fifty primary source<br />
selections that address various challenges to Christian faith in the history of Christian apologetics.<br />
The compilation represents a broad Christian spectrum, ranging from early writers like Saint Paul and<br />
Saint Augustine, to Saint Teresa of Avila and Blaise Pascal, to more recent and present day apologists<br />
such as C. S. Lewis, Alvin Plantinga, William Lane Craig, Richard Swinburne, and Pope Benedict XVI.<br />
Insightful introductions, black-and-white images, concise section headings, and discussion questions<br />
guide readers toward a clearer understanding of classical defenses of Christianity. Annotated reading<br />
lists, a bibliography, and author and subject indices contribute to the suitability of this anthology as a<br />
textbook or supplemental reader.<br />

The Journey So Far makes philosophy accessible by unfolding its history as an ongoing<br />
story with a significant plot. Writing from an evenhanded yet distinctly Christian<br />
perspective, Peter Hicks traces the shift from God-centered worldviews to worldviews<br />
based on human reason and relativism.<br />
Using refreshingly clear and simple language, this book uncovers the main trends of<br />
philosophy through the ages. It allows the reader to interact with the most significant<br />
thinkers, from the Hebrews and the early Hindus to Buddha and Plato, on through the<br />
Roman and Medieval periods to the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, and so on<br />
down to the present day.<br />
The Journey So Far includes a unique exploration of the philosophical ideas connected<br />
with the biblical writings—ideas that have significantly influenced the development<br />
of Western thought and provide the basis for a truly Christian philosophy today. In<br />
addition, the book includes elements of Eastern and non-European (such as African)<br />
thought where relevant.<br />
Icons highlight recurring themes without interrupting the flow of the text, and “To<br />
Think Through” sections throughout the book help the student form personal commentary<br />
on the ideas covered.<br />
This book’s personable, engaging style helps students connect easily with profound<br />
concepts. They will acquire a broad grasp of philosophy and its history. They will better<br />
understand how the story of Western philosophy authenticates the Christian worldview.<br />
And they will also be challenged to shape tomorrow’s world with the ideas they<br />
form and live by today.<br />
Peter Hicks (Ph.D., University of London) studied philosophy at Oxford and London and<br />
for much of his life has combined teaching philosophy at undergraduate and postgraduate<br />
levels with planting and pastoring churches. He is the author of several books on<br />
philosophy, theology and Christian living.<br />

Softcover • 192 pages<br />
ISBN 9780310513995<br />
In Doing the Right Thing, author Scott B.<br />
Rae proposes that there is such a thing<br />
as moral truth, that it can be known, and<br />
that it can be put into practice.<br />
Looking specifically at the areas<br />
of medicine, the marketplace, and<br />
public life, Rae shows how foundational<br />
ethical principles can guide readers into<br />
moral day-to-day decisions. Informed<br />
by Scripture and calling for a renewed<br />
understanding of the importance of the<br />
Christian faith in moral training, Doing the<br />
Right Thing presents a case for cultivated<br />
virtue that can bring about both better<br />
lives and a better society.<br />
Doing the Right Thing is published<br />
in cooperation with the Chuck Colson<br />
Center for Christian Worldview and completes Colson’s last<br />
passion project, a DVD study also entitled Doing the Right Thing.<br />

Emphasizing the historical distance between the contexts of the biblical world and<br />
contemporary culture, Zondervan’s highly anticipated The Story of God Bible Commentary<br />
series provides pastors, students, Sunday school teachers, and small group<br />
leaders with a clear and compelling exposition of the biblical text in the context of the<br />
Bible’s overarching story. The Story of God Bible Commentary series moves away from<br />
“application” language, which has been criticized as being too simplistic; instead it<br />
encourages discussion of how the Bible’s story can be lived today.<br />

An Egyptian priest named Manetho,<br />
who lived during the 200s B.C., divided<br />
Egyptian history into sections or dynasties.<br />
He did this based on groups of<br />
kings who, in his view, shared important<br />
kinship, political, or geographical<br />
ties. He numbered each dynasty, and<br />
the New Kingdom includes the Eighteenth,<br />
Nineteenth, and Twentieth<br />
Dynasties. A-1 Overlapping dates can be<br />

Moreover, since<br />
archaeological excavations<br />
have produced<br />

more data for some Egypt in the Late<br />
locations and time periods<br />
than for others, the <br />
Bronze Age<br />
information sought from<br />
a specific place and time<br />
may simply be unavailable,<br />
and one must look<br />
elsewhere. But ancient<br />
Near Eastern societies<br />
often operated with<br />
similar customs and traditions,<br />
which tended to<br />
change slowly, if at all,<br />
during the first three<br />
millennia B.C. Thus,<br />
in order to obtain an<br />
understanding of the<br />
ancient perspective<br />
regarding a particular<br />
issue, material from the<br />
first or third millennium<br />
may be just as enlightening as that from<br />
the late second millennium. Similarly,<br />
literature from Mesopotamia can prove<br />
just as helpful in understanding a biblical<br />
text as that of societies located closer<br />
to the land of Israel.<br />
This commentary will use, therefore,<br />
a diverse set of literary and archaeological<br />
sources in order to explain features<br />
and themes of the biblical text, to<br />
examine topics of ancient Near Eastern<br />
society and culture to which passages<br />
in Exodus allude, and to raise questions<br />
that are worth assessing in light of the<br />
ancient world of the Bible.<br />

Biblical Theology for Life<br />
Christians in an Age of Wealth<br />
A Biblical Theology of Stewardship<br />
Craig L. Blomberg<br />
• Are material possessions a blessing for which we should long?<br />
• What are the dangers that the use or abuse of material possessions can produce?<br />
• Is there any one key to keeping possessions in their proper, God-intended perspective?<br />
• Are there limits on how rich we should become or on how poor we should allow others to get?<br />
• What does a truly Christian economic system look like?<br />
• How does the Bible’s teaching on wealth fit into the gospel?<br />
In Christians in an Age of Wealth, Craig L. Blomberg asks these and other tough questions about<br />
the place and purpose of wealth and material possessions. This book investigates the Bible’s many<br />
references to material wealth, work, poverty, and generosity, and applies these findings specifically to<br />
the Christian church. Readers will be challenged to think holistically about the blessings of prosperity<br />
and the associated responsibility to look after the poor.<br />
Blomberg outlines biblical passages that teach about the goodness of wealth, as God originally<br />
designed it, and the ways in which material blessing can function properly. Yet both Old and New<br />
Testaments also warn against the dangers that loving one’s own wealth or coveting another’s can<br />
generate. The key, Blomberg explains, is giving generously, even sacrificially, to those in need. By doing<br />
so, Christians participate in God’s original good design for abundance and demonstrate the active love<br />
of Christ. Rather than pitting generous living against gospel proclamation, Blomberg demonstrates<br />
that each is incomplete without the other.<br />
CRAIG L. BLOMBERG (PhD, University of Aberdeen, Scotland) is distinguished professor of New<br />
Testament at Denver Seminary. He is the author, coauthor, or coeditor of fifteen books and more than<br />
eighty articles in journals or multi-author works.<br />

Understanding Biblical Theology<br />
A Comparison of Theory and Practice<br />
edward w. klink iii and darian r. lockett<br />
“The popularity of biblical theology shows no signs of abating, but the variety of approaches to the<br />
subject can be confusing and daunting. Klink and Lockett provide a landscape for understanding<br />
the discipline by setting forth five different approaches to biblical theology. This much-needed work<br />
fills a large gap and will be received gratefully by both professors and students.”<br />
—Thomas R. Schreiner, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary<br />
“Biblical Theology—scholars and pastors alike drop the phrase effortlessly, but no one’s quite sure<br />
what it really means. And in recent years the misunderstanding and frustrations have only multiplied.<br />
Now here comes Understanding Biblical Theology, a primer for the uninitiated and map for<br />
the theologically well-versed. If there is any hope for biblical theologians to stop talking past one<br />
another, it’s time we had a conversation about the conversation. A book like this is just the place to<br />
start.”<br />

Understanding Biblical Theology examines the five major schools of thought considered “biblical<br />
theology,” giving a brief developmental history and exploring one contemporary scholar who<br />
champions each method. Using a spectrum between history and theology, each of five “types” of<br />
biblical theology are identified as either “more theological” or “more historical” in concern and<br />
practice. A conclusion suggests how any student of the Bible can learn from these approaches.<br />

Old Testament<br />
An Ideal Text for Surveying the Old Testament<br />
This proven Old Testament text, with a wealth of full-color images, helps readers connect the world of the Old Testament with today’s<br />
world. Old Testament Today, 2nd Edition, newly revised, includes a book-by-book survey, new maps and graphics, and other updates<br />
throughout.<br />
Unique among Old Testament surveys, Old Testament Today, 2nd Edition not only provides an orientation to the world of the Old<br />
Testament, but also builds a bridge between the original audience and modern readers, demonstrating why the ancient message is<br />
important for faith and life today. It goes beyond basic content to help students understand what the Scriptures mean and how to<br />
apply them personally.<br />
Taking readers progressively through the Old Testament, this text: (1) presents the details of the content, focusing on the story line,<br />
historical background, and literary information that address the original setting and audience; (2) focuses on theology perspectives<br />
and on issues of the author’s purpose and the universal message of the text, building a bridge between the original audience and<br />
today’s audience; and (3) develops an understanding of the relevance of the Old Testament writings to today’s Christian, showing how<br />
they can be applied in personal faith and practice.<br />

Authors of the Bible<br />
Do we know who all of the authors of<br />
those messages. That does not necessarily<br />
the Bible are? The short answer to that<br />
mean that the prophet was the one who<br />
is no. In times past, however, it was<br />
wrote down the message or who compiled<br />
considered important to be able to assign<br />
authorship to each book. This was<br />
noted that the prophets are at times re-<br />
the book of those messages. It should be<br />
because the authority of the book was<br />
ferred to in the third person. In Jeremiah<br />
in part reiterated by associating it with<br />
we are told that a scribe named Baruch<br />
known authoritative voices (e.g., the<br />
served as his secretary (Jer. 36:4). In<br />
prophets). Consequently, tradition is Bulla with an impression from the seal of Isaiah many believe the first five chapters<br />
to be a digest of the oracles that<br />
filled with associations of books with “Baruch, son of Neriah, the scribe.”<br />
particular authors. Some of these offer<br />
stretched throughout his career. If this is<br />
internal rationale (e.g., David with Psalms or Solomon with true, it would suggest a later editor. Some believe that a few<br />
the Song of Songs) while others offer only the most fragile of of the prophetic books may have had additional prophecies<br />
circumstantial evidence (e.g., Jeremiah with 1 and 2 Kings). added on at a later date, perhaps by generations of followers<br />
Pentateuch<br />
of the prophet, but criteria have not been clearly established<br />
The tradition of Moses as the author of the Pentateuch so that such determinations could be made with confidence.<br />
is strong both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament<br />
(see “Authors and Books,” p. 000). The text offers strong It is no surprise that Solomon is connected to a number of<br />
Wisdom<br />
confirmation that Moses should at least be considered the the wisdom books of Israel. Sections of Proverbs are explicitly<br />
speaker, author, or editor of a large portion of the Pentateuch, attributed to Solomon (1:1; 10:1; 25:1). He is mentioned by<br />
although occasional statements appear to require a later name in Song of Songs (1:1, 5; 3:7, 9; 8:11 – 12) possibly as<br />
hand (e.g., Gen. 12:6; 36:31; Deut. 34).<br />
author. In Ecclesiastes the first person pronoun is used for<br />
Historical Books<br />
one describing himself as the son of David, king in Jerusalem<br />
The historical books offer the least information about (1:1, 12), giving the strong impression that Solomon is thus<br />
their authorship. The traditional authors such as Samuel (for identified, although his name is never used.<br />
the books of Samuel) or Jeremiah (for the books of Kings)<br />
enjoy little ancient or textual support as authors and have<br />
generally been so identified by nothing more than the prominence<br />
of their roles. All major characters are referred to in<br />
the third person. In addition, no later biblical literature offers<br />
any suggestion as to authorship. Many today believe that<br />
Joshua, Judges, Samuel, and Kings were all edited together<br />
during the exile or soon after it. This group is therefore sometimes<br />
labeled the “Deuteronomistic History,” since it reflects<br />
the theological themes of Deuteronomy. As a result, modern<br />
writers typically refer to authors such as the deuteronomist<br />
(Joshua – Kings) or the chronicler (Chronicles).<br />
Prophets<br />
It is appropriate to assume that the prophets to whom Scribe on the right is making a record on a tablet by pressing<br />
prophetic writings were attached were the ones who delivered a stylus into wet clay.<br />

Wisdom and Psalms<br />
The Covenant and Abram. God did not ask Abram to give up anything<br />
that he was not going to replace. God asked Abram to leave his<br />
land, and God promised to take Abram to a new land. After Abram<br />
arrived there, God said he would give him that land. God also asked<br />
Abram to leave his kinship group. This meant giving up the protection<br />
and security a kinship group provided. He was leaving his<br />
roots and putting aside all that was familiar to him. In return, God<br />
offered Abram a family that would become a great nation. Eventually<br />
God told him that his descendants would be as numerous as<br />
the stars. The third thing God asked Abram to leave behind was<br />
the “house of his father.” This could be identified as his inheritance.<br />
In the ancient Near East, household gods were passed down from<br />
generation to generation. There were ancestors to make offerings to<br />
and to care for. Most important was the care of elderly parents and<br />
eventually their burial. The inheritance one received included not<br />
only material possessions and ownership of land; it involved taking<br />
one’s place in the family line and appropriating the blessings that<br />
had been passed down through the family line. As Abram put all<br />
of this behind him, God offered a threefold blessing for him. God<br />
would bless Abram,<br />
he would be a blessing,<br />
and he would be<br />
a channel of blessing.<br />
The first meant that<br />
Abram would come<br />
under God’s care,<br />
protection, and favor,<br />
which would bring him<br />
safety and prosperity.<br />
The second meant that<br />
Abram would provide<br />
care and protection<br />
to those in favor with<br />
him. And the third<br />
meant that God would<br />
bring blessing to other<br />
people through Abram<br />
and his family.<br />

Four Views on the Historical Adam<br />
Matthew Barrett and Ardel B. Caneday, General Editors<br />
As a part of the Counterpoints series, Four Views on the Historical Adam clearly outlines four primary<br />
views on Adam held by evangelicals, featuring top-notch proponents of each view presenting their<br />
positions in their own words and critiquing the positions with which they disagree. Readers will<br />
come away with a better understanding of the key biblical and theological issues at stake and of the<br />
implications of Adam for contemporary Christian witness and church life.<br />
Contributors and views include:<br />
• Denis O. Lamoureux: No Historical Adam, Evolutionary Creation View<br />
• John H. Walton: A Historical Adam, Archetypal Creation View<br />
• C. John Collins: A Historical Adam, Old-Earth Creation View<br />
• William Barrick: A Historical Adam, Young-Earth Creation View<br />
Each contributor focuses his essay on answering the following questions:<br />
• What is the biblical case for your viewpoint, and how do you reconcile it both with modern<br />
science and with passages and potential interpretations that seem to counter it?<br />
• In what ways is your view more theologically consistent and coherent than other views?<br />
• What are the implications of your view for the spiritual life and public witness of the church and<br />
individual believers, and how is your view a healthier alternative for both?<br />
Concluding reflections by pastor-scholars Gregory A. Boyd (“Whether or Not There Was a<br />
Historical Adam, Our Faith Is Secure”) and Philip G. Ryken (“We Can’t Rightly Understand the World<br />
or Our Faith Without a Real, Historical Adam”) highlight the significance of the topic in the faith of<br />
everyday believers.<br />

Old Testament<br />
A Brief History of Old<br />
Testament Criticism<br />
From Benedict Spinoza to Brevard Childs<br />
Mark S. Gignilliat<br />
Modern Old Testament interpretation arose in an intellectual environment marked by interest in<br />
specific historical contexts of the Bible, attention to its literary matters, and most significantly, the<br />
suspension of belief. A vast array of scholars contributed to the large, developing complex of ideas<br />
and trends that now serves as the foundation of contemporary discussions on biblical interpretation.<br />
In A Brief History of Old Testament Criticism, Mark Gignilliat brings together representative figures—<br />
such as Baruch Spinoza, W. M. L. de Wette, Julius Wellhausen, Hermann Gunkel, and others—and<br />
their theories to serve as windows into the important trends of Old Testament interpretation in the<br />
modern period.<br />
This concise overview is ideal for classroom use. It lays a foundation and provides a working<br />
knowledge of the major critical interpreters of the Old Testament, their approaches to the Bible, and<br />
the philosophical background of their positions. Each chapter concludes with For Further Reading<br />
that directs students to additional resources on specific theologians and theories.<br />
Mark S. Gignilliat (PhD, University of St. Andrews) is associate professor of divinity at Beeson<br />
Divinity School in Alabama, where he teaches Hebrew, Old Testament exegesis, and biblical theology.<br />
Before coming to Beeson Divinity School, he taught at Wycliffe Hall, University of Oxford. Gignilliat<br />
is the author of Paul and Isaiah’s Servants and Karl Barth and the Fifth Gospel: Barth’s Theological<br />
Exegesis of Isaiah. He has published articles in Scottish Journal of Theology, Horizons in Biblical Theology,<br />
Westminster Theological Journal, Biblica, and The Journal for Theological Interpretation.<br />

An Introduction to the Old Testament<br />
tremper longman III and raymond b. dillard<br />
2nd<br />
Edition<br />
This second edition of An Introduction to the Old Testament integrates and interacts with recent<br />
developments in Old Testament scholarship. Including callouts, charts, and graphs, this text is<br />
written with an eye for understanding the nature of Old Testament historiography. This upperlevel<br />
introduction to the Old Testament offers students a solid understanding of three key issues:<br />
(1) historical background, (2) literary analysis, and (3) theological message.<br />
Several distinctives set it apart from other introductions to the Old Testament:<br />
• It is thoroughly evangelical in its perspective.<br />
• It emphasizes “special introduction”—the study of individual books.<br />
• It interacts in an irenic spirit with the historical-critical method.<br />
• It features points of research history and representative scholars rather than an<br />
exhaustive treatment of past scholarship.<br />
• It deals with the meaning of each book, not in isolation but in a canonical context.<br />
• It probes the meaning of each book in the setting of its culture.<br />
tremper longman III (PhD, Yale University) is the Robert H. Gundry Professor of Biblical Studies<br />
and the chair of the religious studies department at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, California.<br />
The late raymond b. dillard (PhD, Dropsie University) was professor of Old Testament language<br />
and literature at Westminster Theological Seminary.<br />

method of learning biblical Hebrew, an approach he has refined over more<br />

Basics of Ancient Ugaritic is a teaching<br />
grammar of this ancient language, one<br />
spoken at the time of Abraham and<br />
occurring in ancient texts in cuneiform<br />
writing. It begins with the alphabet,<br />
and each new lesson builds on the ones<br />
before it. It is not, therefore, a synthetic<br />
Ugaritic grammar—these types<br />
of texts often prove to be overwhelming<br />
for students. Instead, Basics of Ancient<br />
Ugaritic can be used for learning the<br />
language by individuals on their own<br />
or in a classroom setting. Each chapter<br />
concludes with a set of exercises along<br />
with an answer key in the back, which allows students to know<br />
whether they are grasping the fundamentals of the language. In<br />
short, Basics of Ancient Ugaritic represents an ideal first text for<br />
entering the larger world of Semitic languages.<br />

Four Views on the Role of Works<br />
at the Final Judgment<br />
Alan P. Stanley, General Editor<br />
Four Views on the Role of Works at the Final Judgment takes up the age old question: What must I<br />
do to be saved? Four leading scholars discuss the degree to which one’s works are considered at<br />
the final judgment.<br />
Contributors and views include:<br />
• Robert N. Wilkin: Works will determine rewards but not salvation—At the Judgment Seat of<br />
Christ each believer will be judged by Christ to determine his eternal rewards, but he remains<br />
eternally secure even if the judgment reveals he failed to persevere in good works (or in faith).<br />
• Thomas R. Schreiner: Works will provide evidence that one actually has been saved—At the final<br />
judgment works provide the necessary condition, though not the ground for final salvation, in<br />
that they provide evidence as to whether one has actually trusted in Jesus Christ.<br />
• James D. G. Dunn: Works will provide the criterion by which Christ will determine eternal destiny<br />
of his people—Since Paul, Jesus, and the New Testament writers hold together “justification by<br />
faith and not by works” with “judgment according to works,” we should not fall into the trap of<br />
playing one off against the other or blending them in a way that diminishes the force of each.<br />
• Michael P. Barber: Works will merit eternal life—At the final judgment, good works will be<br />
rewarded with eternal salvation. However, these good works will be meritorious not apart from<br />
Christ but precisely because of the union of the believer with him.<br />

New Testament<br />
Paul and Union with Christ<br />
An Exegetical and Theological Study<br />
constantine r. campbell<br />
“The strength of Campbell’s book is his patient examination of the controlling expressions—what it<br />
means to be ‘in Christ,’ for example. Here there is no reductionism, but sure-footed guidance through<br />
the biblical evidence and sensible, even-handed conclusions. Highly recommended.”<br />
—D. A. Carson, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School<br />
“Broad claims about the nature of Paul’s theology are often made with surprisingly little attention<br />
to the specific language he uses to communicate it. In this book Campbell focuses on condensed and<br />
cryptic formulae that Paul uses over and over again, and succeeds in showing that close reading of<br />
these prepositional phrases can shed light on Paul’s deepest theological convictions.”<br />
—Francis Watson, Durham University<br />
Paul and Union with Christ fills the gap for the many biblical scholars and theologians pondering and<br />
debating the meaning of union with Christ. Following a selective survey of the scholarly work on union<br />
with Christ through the twentieth century to the present day, Greek scholar Constantine Campbell<br />
carefully examines every occurrence of the phrases “in Christ,” “with Christ,” “through Christ,” “into Christ,”<br />
and other related expressions in Paul’s letters, exegeting each passage in context and taking into account<br />
the unique lexical contribution of each Greek preposition. Campbell then builds a holistic portrayal of<br />
Paul’s thinking and engages contemporary theological discussions about union with Christ by employing<br />
his evidence-based understanding of the theme. This volume combines high-level scholarship and a<br />
concern for practical application of a topic currently debated in the academy and the church.<br />

The New Testament in Antiquity<br />
A Survey of the New Testament within Its Cultural Context<br />
Gary M. burge, Lynn H. cohick, And gene L. Green<br />
“Complete with an extraordinary array of visual illustrations, this book covers important topics<br />
needed for an introductory text in New Testament in a way that is both understandable and wellinformed.<br />
It emphasizes many details that help students discover the biblical text in new ways<br />
they would rarely get on their own.”<br />
—craig s. keener, Asbury Theological Seminary<br />
The New Testament in Antiquity skillfully develops how Jewish, Hellenistic, and Roman cultures<br />
formed the essential environment in which the New Testament authors wrote their books and<br />
letters. Written by three scholars with over fifty years of combined experience in the classroom,<br />
it shows readers how an understanding of the land, history, and culture of this world brings<br />
remarkable new insights into how we read the New Testament itself. Throughout the book,<br />
numerous features provide windows into the first-century world.<br />
Features:<br />
• Nearly 500 full-color photos, charts, maps, and drawings have been carefully selected.<br />
• Additional features include numerous sidebars that integrate the book’s material with<br />
issues of interpretation, ample discussion questions, and bibliographies.<br />

Tradition locates the Last Supper in the Cenacle on Mount Zion. This present structure was<br />
reconstructed by Franciscans in 1335. Left: The Cenacle exterior view. Above: Interior view of<br />
the Upper Room.<br />
that israel’s blindness was in fulfillment of Scripture and was part<br />
of israel’s rebellious history (12:40; mark 4:12; matt. 13:14 – 15;<br />
luke 8:10; acts 28:26 – 27). Verses 44 – 50 summarize Jesus’<br />
teaching in this first half of the gospel. he has come to reveal the father who sent him and<br />
to bring light to the world. those who reject him are condemned, but those who believe<br />
receive eternal life.<br />
The Book of Glory (13:1 – 20:31)<br />
Story time slows dramatically at this point, and the next five chapters contain Jesus’ teaching<br />
during the last Supper. While the Book of Signs (chaps. 1 – 12) concerned Jesus’ selfrevelation<br />
to the world, the Book of glory begins with private teaching for his disciples.<br />
The Last Supper (Chap. 13). the account starts with the evening meal — probably the<br />
Passover 7 — during which Jesus washes the disciples’ feet (13:1 – 17). When Peter, appalled<br />
that Jesus would act like a lowly servant, at first refuses to let Jesus wash his feet, Jesus<br />
teaches that all who follow him must imitate his model of self-sacrificial love and ser vice<br />
(13:12 – 17). two negative examples of discipleship follow, as Jesus predicts Judas’s betrayal<br />
and Peter’s denial (13:18 – 30, 36 – 38). Johannine symbolism is apparent as Judas departs<br />
and the narrator adds, “and it was night” (13:30). Between these two failures of discipleship<br />
(in a kind of inclusio) Jesus gives the disciples a new command: to love one another. By this<br />
love, all people will know they are his disciples (13:35). though not wholly original (see<br />
lev. 19:18), the command to love is new in that it sums up and epitomizes the whole law<br />
(cf. matt. 22:37 – 40). love is the hallmark of chris tian discipleship throughout the Johan-<br />

according to the Gospels, Jesus had four brothers — James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon — and<br />
at least two sisters (Mark 6:3; Matt. 13:55 – 56). There is a lively debate concerning the<br />
actual relationship of these siblings. roman Catholic theologians have traditionally followed<br />
the interpretation of Jerome that these are not true brothers and sisters but cousins.<br />

Four Portraits,One Jesus<br />
A Survey of Jesus and the Gospels<br />
Mark L. Strauss<br />
“This is the best textbook available for a course on Jesus and the Gospels. Rarely do both the<br />
instuctor and the students rave about the textbook.”<br />
—E. Randolph Richards, Palm Beach Atlantic University<br />
Four Portraits, One Jesus is a thorough-yet-accessible introduction to these documents and their<br />
subject: the life and person of Jesus. With clarity and insight, Mark Strauss illuminates these four<br />
books, first addressing their nature, origin, methods for study, and historical, religious, and cultural<br />
backgrounds. He then moves on to closer study of each narrative and its contribution to our<br />
understanding of Jesus, investigating things such as plot, characters, and theme. Finally, he pulls it<br />
all together with a detailed examination of what the Gospels teach about Jesus’ ministry, message,<br />
death, and resurrection, with excursions into the quest for the historical Jesus and the historical<br />
reliability of the Gospels.<br />

In [this realm of the Spirit], Christ ascended [“went”] and, in so doing, proclaimed<br />
final defeat to the spirits in prison who were the fallen angels and<br />
who in times past disobeyed when the patience of God waited in the days of<br />
Noah while the ark was being built.<br />

any of them they chose. ...<br />

There are also those who heard from him [Polycarp] that John, the disciple of the Lord,<br />
going to bathe at Ephesus, and perceiving Cerinthus within, rushed out of the bath-house<br />
without bathing, exclaiming, “Let us fly, lest even the bath-house fall down, because Cerinthus,<br />
the enemy of the truth, is within” (Against Heresies 3.3.4).<br />

In light of this persecution, the book of Hebrews was<br />
addressed to Chris tians who “have not yet resisted to the point<br />
of shedding your blood” (12:4, emphasis added). If addressed to<br />
Chris tians living in Rome, this statement would sit best before<br />
Nero began to kill Chris tians. With the storm clouds of Nero’s<br />
hostility to Chris tians on the horizon, some may have attempted<br />
to escape persecution by withdrawing from their Chris tian<br />
commitment. Such a scenario would motivate the warnings in<br />
Hebrews against apostasy (6:4 – 8; 10:26 – 39) and the exhortations<br />
to continue meeting together despite the risk (10:19 – 25).<br />
A further consideration in regard to the date Hebrews was<br />
written is the destruction of the Jerusalem temple in AD 70. The<br />
author of Hebrews speaks of the sacrificial rituals in the present<br />
tense, and some infer that the temple must have been in operation at that time. Certainly<br />
the author’s argument that Jesus is the unique and final sacrifice after which no further<br />
sacrifices are necessary would have been strongly supported by pointing out the fact that<br />
the Jerusalem temple had been destroyed, were that the case. However, the grammatical<br />
present tense itself is not sufficient grounds for arguing a date of writing, for the present<br />
tense in Greek has other relationships to time.<br />
To complicate matters, the author of Hebrews does not actually refer to the “temple”<br />
at all. Whenever the author refers to the sacred place where sacrifice was made under the<br />
old covenant, he uses the word tabernacle, a portable tent used for worship by ancient Israel<br />
(8:2, 5; 9:1, 2, 8, 11, 21; 13:10). In fact, the Greek words for “temple” (hieron and naos) don’t<br />
occur at all in Hebrews. This point has been used to argue that Hebrews was written after the<br />

could gain salvation. Origen and Cyril of<br />
Alexandria followed Clement, and this<br />
interpretation continued to enjoy popularity<br />
in the Eastern church. Even some today<br />
who argue a postmortem opportunity for<br />
conversion interpret 1 Peter 3:18 – 22 as<br />
suggesting that possibility, often reading<br />
1 Peter 4:6 in the same light.<br />
Augustine, a Latin church father living<br />
at the turn of the fourth to fifth century<br />
in North Africa, was troubled by the idea<br />
of postmortem conversion, for Scripture<br />
clearly seems to teach that one’s eternal<br />
destiny is determined in this life. He most<br />
likely was not aware of 1 Enoch, which had<br />
disappeared from popular circulation by<br />
that time. Augustine, who could not read Greek very well and was more concerned with<br />
theological interpretation than with the syntax of the text, offered the alternate interpretation<br />
that the preincarnate Christ “went” to Noah’s generation and preached repentance<br />
through Noah to those about to perish in the great flood, but who were dead at the time<br />
Peter wrote and so were “spirits in prison.” This view would take its cue from Peter’s statement<br />
in 1:10 – 12, that it was the Spirit of Christ who revealed to the Old Testament prophets<br />
the sufferings of the Messiah and the glories that would follow.<br />

of the one told in Genesis. When Jewish colonists came to Asia Minor during the Seleucid<br />
period, they noticed the name of a town that had the Greek word for “ark” in it (Apameia<br />
Kibotos, modern Dinar) and assumed it to be the place where Noah’s ark came to rest. At<br />
some point, Noah’s name became identified with the great but anonymous Apamean<br />
flood hero, and consequently Noah became a part of the indigenous<br />
culture of Asia Minor. His fame in that region is attested by coins minted<br />
during the Roman period showing him and his wife in an ark.<br />
Noah’s fame in Asia Minor allowed Peter to allude to the tradition<br />
preserved in 1 Enoch. Noah’s story in the Bible follows after the disappearance<br />
of Enoch, who “walked faithfully with God; then he was no<br />
more, because God took him away” (Gen. 5:24). Noah’s story begins with<br />
Genesis 6 and the mysterious statement that<br />
Although nothing further is said in Scripture about Enoch or the Nephilim, a large<br />
corpus of tradition developed within Judaism about them. The book of 1 Enoch was a very<br />
popular version of Jewish tradition that brought Enoch and the Nephilim together. In<br />

INTRODUCTION<br />
John 15:1 – 16:4a seems to form a self-contained unit, focusing on two main themes: the<br />
vine and the branches (15:1 – 17), and the hatred of the world for Jesus and his disciples<br />
(5:18 – 16:4a).<br />
I. THE VINE AND THE BRANCHES (15:1 – 17)<br />
John 15:1 – 17 contains the majestic description of Jesus as the vine and his followers as the<br />
branches. The commentators agree that John 15:1 – 17 divides into two parts: the allegory<br />
of the vine and the branches (vv. 1 – 6), and the explanation of that allegory (vv. 7 – 17).<br />
John 15:1 – 16:4a seems to form a A. The Allegory of the Vine and the Branches (vv. 1 – 6)<br />
John 15:1 – 6 is an allegory, an extended metaphor. Unlike parables,<br />
which tend to make one basic point, an allegory makes<br />
self-contained unit, focusing on<br />
several points. Here in verses 1 – 6 Jesus’ horticultural allegory<br />
emphasizes three symbols: the vine, the gardener, and the<br />
two main themes: the vine and<br />
the branches (15:1 – 17), and the branches.<br />
hatred of the world for Jesus and 1. The Vine (v. 1a)<br />
“I am the true vine” is the last of the seven “I am” sayings<br />
his disciples (5:18 – 16:4a). in John. The background of Jesus’ usage of the vine imagery<br />
is Old Testament Israel, which is called the vineyard of God<br />
in several famous passages: Psalm 80:8 – 18; Isaiah 5:1 – 7; Jeremiah 2:21; Ezekiel 15:1 – 5;<br />
17:1 – 2; 19:10 – 14; Hosea 10:1 – 2; cf. Leviticus Rabbah 36 (133a); Matthew 20:1 – 16; Mark<br />
12:1 – 12; Luke 13:6 – 9.<br />
The striking characteristic of the above Old Testament and New Testament passages<br />
is that Israel as the vineyard of God was placed under divine judgment due to its spiritual<br />
fruitlessness. This is no doubt the key to understanding Jesus’ self-reference “I am the true<br />
vine.” Jesus represents true Israel precisely because he is the obedient vineyard of God and<br />

John was buried in Ephesus. 18 In addition to dealing with Jewish opponents outside of the<br />
Johannine churches, John now, in the epistles, had to handle an in-house struggle, one that<br />
resulted in the dissenters exiting the Johannine community.<br />
Can we put a name on these dissenters? Three second-century heretics have often been<br />
associated with the opponents of John as culled from his epistles: Cerinthus, the Docetists,<br />
and the Gnostics. We now provide portraits of each of these heresies based on the writings<br />
of those church fathers who opposed them, comparing them with 1, 2, and 3 John.<br />

All of this is to say that the handing over and the opening of the scroll by Christ expresses<br />
John’s view that Jesus is God.<br />
3. The Doxologies<br />
The heavenly hymns sung to God and Christ in Revelation 4 and 5, respectively, serve<br />
two functions. First, they equate Jesus with God. Second, they set God and Christ in opposition<br />
to Caesar. Both of these aspects exalt the risen Jesus and God. 11<br />

A. Cerinthus<br />
Irenaeus (AD 120 – 202), bishop of Lyons, in his magnum opus Against Heresies, provides<br />
firsthand information concerning the heretic Cerinthus. Irenaeus records Polycarp’s famous<br />
story about John the disciple of the Lord meeting Cerinthus in the bath house in<br />
Ephesus, and provides a description of Cerinthus’s teaching. 19 The upshot of this quote is<br />
to claim that Cerinthus denied the real humanity of Jesus Christ.<br />

An Introduction to the New Testament<br />
D. A. Carson and douglas J. Moo<br />
2nd<br />
Edition<br />
An Introduction to the New Testament focuses on “special introduction,” that is, historical<br />
questions dealing with authorship, date, sources, purpose, destination, and so forth. This<br />
approach stands in contrast to recent texts that concentrate more on literary form, rhetorical<br />
criticism, and historical parallels—topics the authors don’t minimize, but instead think are<br />
better suited to extended treatment in exegesis courses. By refocusing on the essentials, An<br />
Introduction to the New Testament ensures that the New Testament books will be accurately<br />
understood within historical settings. For each New Testament document, the authors<br />
also provide a substantial summary of that book’s content, discuss the book’s theological<br />
contribution to the overall canon, and give an account of current studies on that book, including<br />
recent literary and social-science approaches to interpretation.<br />

• A graphical display of each passage enables the reader to grasp quickly and accurately the main idea of the text, its development, and supporting ideas.<br />
• “Theology in Application” section, which follows the commentary proper and reflects on the overall theological message of the passage and its function<br />
in the biblical book and biblical theology as a whole. Further, discussion of how the passage should be understood and applied in the church today is<br />
also included.<br />
• Identification and discussion of the main ideas of each passage occur in the graphical display, the introduction to the passage, and the “Theology in<br />
Application” section. Few other series do this consistently.<br />
• Responsible interaction with the Greek text ensures that the commentary remains understandable to pastors, teachers, and students.<br />
• Though certainly familiar with the best scholarly literature on their respective book, contributors only present the most important findings when appropriate<br />
for their church-serving readers.<br />

William D. Mounce<br />
Many people want to learn Greek in order to better understand the Bible, but few are able to<br />

edition of Mounce’s widely-used resource—is a revolutionary crash course that acquaints<br />
readers with the essentials of the language, deepens their understanding of God’s Word, teaches<br />
a sound knowledge of basic Greek, and presents ways in which to use more advanced tools to<br />
add muscle to Bible study. In three sections, Greek for the Rest of Us helps readers:<br />
• Recite the Greek alphabet<br />
• Read and pronounce Greek words<br />
• Learn the essentials of the Greek noun and verb system<br />
• Conduct Greek word studies<br />
• Decipher why translations are different<br />
• See the biblical author’s flow of thought and central message<br />
• Read better commentaries<br />

“Murray Harris is a highly respected<br />
grammarian of New Testament Greek<br />
with a gift for precise interpretation of<br />
the text and the ability to convey the<br />
results of his studies clearly and helpfully.<br />
This careful study of the use of<br />
prepositions is to be warmly welcomed<br />
for the fresh light that he sheds on many<br />
well-known problem passages involving<br />
their use, and students at all stages of<br />
learning will bless him for it.”<br />
—I. Howard Marshall,<br />
University of Aberdeen<br />
Prepositions are important in the exegesis of the Greek New<br />
Testament, but they are at the same time very slippery words<br />
because they can have so many nuances. While Prepositions and<br />
Theology in the Greek New Testament rejects the idea of a “theology<br />
of the prepositions,” it engages in a study of the numerous places<br />
in the Greek New Testament where prepositions contribute to the<br />
theological meaning of the text.<br />
Key features: coverage of all 17 “proper” and 42 “improper”<br />
prepositions • exploration of both literary and broader<br />
theological contexts • Greek font—not transliteration—used<br />
throughout • comprehensive indexes to hundreds of verses,<br />
subjects, and Greek words • discussion of key repeated phrases<br />
that use a particular preposition.<br />
murray J. Harris (PhD, University of Manchester) is professor<br />
emeritus of New Testament Exegesis and Theology at Trinity<br />

Warden of Tyndale House in Cambridge, England.<br />

Based on a careful reading and study of<br />
the Greek New Testament—and written<br />
by some of the top Greek scholars<br />
of today—these devotions can be used<br />
for readings throughout a semester, a<br />
sequence of courses, or every week of<br />
the year. The main point each devotion<br />
offers comes from a careful reading<br />
of the passage in the Greek New<br />
Testament, not from the English Bible.<br />
Contributors use a variety of exegetical<br />
approaches in their devotions: grammatical,<br />
lexical, rhetorical, sociohistorical,<br />
linguistic, etc. Each devotion<br />
closes with a practical application.<br />

Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics<br />
An Exegetical Syntax of the New Testament<br />
Daniel B. Wallace<br />
“A first-rate work! Wallace has devoted much time and thought to grammatical analysis of the<br />
Greek New Testament. Set forth with clarity, this volume will remain a reference tool that student<br />
and scholar alike can consult with profit.”<br />
—Bruce M. Metzger, professor and author of The Text of the New Testament<br />
While the trend of some grammarians has been to take a purely grammatical approach to<br />
the language, Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics integrates the technical requirements for<br />
proper Greek interpretation with the actual interests and needs of Bible students. It explores<br />
numerous syntactical categories, some of which have not previously been dealt with in print. It<br />
equips intermediate Greek students with the skills they need to do exegesis of biblical texts in a<br />
way that is faithful to their intended meaning.<br />
Daniel B. Wallace (PhD, Dallas Theological Seminary) is professor of New Testament at<br />
Dallas Theological Seminary. He is a noted textual critic, serving as head of the Center for the<br />
Study of New Testament Manuscripts, and is author of The Basics of New Testament Syntax<br />

Greek<br />
Basics of Verbal Aspect in Biblical Greek<br />
Constantine R. CamPbell<br />
“Let me be clear: this book fills a great need and should be read by every beginning (beginning classes<br />
should read it at the end of the course, since it assumes knowledge of a traditional approach to verb<br />
tenses), intermediate, or advanced student of New Testament Greek—and the sooner the better. This<br />
is so simply because it is the first systematic introductory treatment of a subject that is portentous in<br />
its importance but not too ponderous in its primary current discussions to benefit beginning students.<br />
Debatable theory is not entirely eliminated by Campbell, but it is so skillfully introduced that the quick<br />
pace of effective learning never slows.”<br />
—C. Michael Robbins, Review of Biblical Literature<br />
Verbal aspect in the Greek language has been a topic of significant debate in recent scholarship. The<br />
majority of scholars now believe that an understanding of verbal aspect is even more important than verb<br />
tense (past, present, etc.). Until now, however, there have been no accessible textbooks, both in terms of<br />
level and price (most titles on the topic retail for more than $100).<br />
In this book, Constantine R. Campbell has included exercises, an answer key, a glossary of key concepts,<br />
an appendix on the topic of space and time, and an index to Scripture cited. Professors and students<br />
at both the undergraduate and graduate levels will want to consider this important and unique<br />
contribution to learning biblical Greek.<br />

In Egypt, the Twelfth Dynasty, in the period known as<br />

king of Idumea, Judea, and Samaria; Antipas as ruler in<br />

northeast of the Sea of Galilee However, the Romans did not<br />
indeed, this was the “classical” period of Egyptian literature<br />
give Archelaus the title of king but rather “ethnarch” (meaning<br />
“ruler of the nation”) Archelaus’s ten-year rule (4 BC – AD<br />

area north of the Sea of Galilee was higher in elevation and was<br />
called Upper Galilee To the south, Lower Galilee was much<br />
more open to outside influence, and its broad, spacious valleys<br />
provided good land for growing grain crops<br />
As Jesus was growing up, Antipas was constructing his<br />
new capital at Sepphoris (3 BC – AD 10), which may have had<br />
a population of 5,000 This city overlooked valuable farmland<br />

When Abram returned to Canaan, he spent<br />
most of his time in the Negev, with occasional<br />

The patriarchs raised sheep and goats and grew<br />
grain crops (see, e g , Gen 13:2, 5 – 7; 24:35; 26:12)<br />
Wells provided water for their families and flocks,<br />
though the control of these water sources was often<br />
disputed Both Abraham and Isaac had conflicts<br />
with the king of Gerar over wells located between<br />
Gerar and Beersheba (Gen 21:25; 26:12 – 33)<br />
The attempt of Abram and his clan to live<br />
in the Bethel/Ai region (Gen 13) seems to have<br />
been somewhat problematic, possibly because<br />
there was not enough grazing land in the area<br />
or because the Canaanites and Perizzites were<br />
hostile (13:7) Lot, Abram’s nephew, chose to<br />
leave the hill country and settle in Sodom, while<br />
Abram remained where he was<br />

Quality Research Papers<br />
For Students of Religion and Theology<br />
Nancy Vyhmeister with Terry Robertson<br />
3rd<br />
Edition<br />
This updated third edition of Quality Research Papers—fast becoming a standard reference textbook<br />
for writing research papers in the fields of religion and theology—gives improvements and added<br />
material for such things as the expanding field of online research and doing church-related research<br />
in a professional manner.<br />
Because so many new developments have taken place in the field of research, especially in terms<br />
of electronic research, this handy reference explores the ways to do both traditional research and<br />
research on the Internet, including how to document such research.<br />
Quality Research Papers, Third Edition offers great opportunities to students today, especially in<br />
distance learning situations, to determine which resources can be used and which should be rejected.<br />
For this reason Nancy Vyhmeister brought in Terry D. Robertson, seminary librarian at Andrews<br />
University and professor of the seminary master’s level research courses. His expertise in library,<br />
computers, and the Internet are invaluable to the book.<br />
In addition to substantial current information on electronic resources and online research, this third<br />
edition preserves all of the features of the original editions, now presented in a newly revised, more<br />
logical order.<br />
NANCY VYHMEISTER (EdD, Andrews University) has fifty years of experience in teaching future<br />
pastors and professors not only in the United States but throughout the world. She continues to have<br />
a global ministry in her retirement years. She has authored several books, both in Spanish and English,<br />

The Promise and the Blessing<br />
A Historical Survey of the Old and New Testaments<br />
Michael A. Harbin<br />
Having taught Old and New Testament survey courses for over twenty years, Michael A. Harbin has<br />
written a book to fill the need for a single text that overviews both Testaments in a unifying manner.<br />
The Promise and the Blessing traces the writing of the Bible as part of the history of the Israelite people<br />
and the nation of Israel, showing how the New Testament naturally flows out of the Old, not only<br />
theologically, but also historically. As such, the book follows a historical order rather than a strict<br />
canonical one.<br />
michael a. harbin (ThD and ThM, Dallas Theological Seminary) is the chair of the biblical<br />
studies, Christian education, and philosophy department at Taylor University. He is the author of To<br />
Serve Other Gods.<br />

In 305 BCE, after sixteen years as a nominal “satrap” or governor, Ptolemy I THE DIVISION OF<br />
took the title of “King of Egypt.” One of his most significant acts was to establish<br />
a major library in Alexandria, a city founded by Alexander the Great and AFTER HIS DEATH.<br />
ALEXANDER'S EMPIRE<br />
named after him. Alexandria also became a major settlement for Hebrews who<br />
did not go back to Judea. 16 His son, Ptolemy II Philadelphus (284–246 BCE),<br />
organized his father’s library and instituted major expansions and settlements.<br />
Manetho, a major Egyptian historian who provided records of the Egyptian<br />
dynasties, worked for him. It was during this time that the Septuagint (a Greek<br />
translation of the OT) was made.<br />
Wars between the Seleucids and the Ptolemies began during this period, but<br />
a tenuous peace was established when Philadelphus gave his daughter in marriage<br />
to Antiochus II of Syria. Just before Philadelphus’s death, she and her son were<br />
murdered. This act led to further conflicts for Ptolemy IV and V. Ptolemy V, a<br />
DANIEL AND THE EMPIRES<br />
The age of empires during the intertestamental period is shown by the four beasts<br />
in the vision of Daniel 7. Many scholars correlate the third beast (the leopard with<br />
four heads) with Alexander’s empire, which divided into several Greek-speaking<br />
kingdoms. It is seen in more detail in the vision of the goat and the ram in chapter<br />
8, where Daniel is told specifically that the ram represents Media and Persia, and the<br />
goat, Greece. The conflict between Syria and Egypt is traced in significant detail in<br />
Daniel 11 (for which reason scholars who do not accept prophetic revelation argue<br />
that it must have been written after the Maccabean revolt).<br />
Read Acts 16:11–15.<br />
PARTHENON. The most<br />
famous temple in Athens. It<br />
is actually part of a large<br />
complex of temples atop a<br />
large rock outcropping near<br />
the center of the city.<br />
hroughout the history of Christianity there have been significant events<br />
and locations marking changes in the direction of its growth. Philip’s trip<br />
Tto Samaria was one. Peter’s trip to Caesarea was a second. Barnabas’s trip<br />
to Antioch was a third. Paul’s vision at Troas was a fourth. Following this, Paul’s<br />
ministry circled the Aegean and moved westward toward Rome. While there was<br />
already a church in Rome itself, Paul started filling the spaces in between.<br />
FIRST CONVERTS IN PHILIPPI<br />
As soon as Paul’s companions agreed that his vision was a direction from God, the<br />
team took action. They caught a ship and sailed directly to the island of Samothrace<br />
and then to Neapolis, a coastal town in Macedonia. Their choice of a direct<br />
route indicates that they took advantage of a southeast wind. These ideal conditions<br />
would seem to confirm the choice they had made. From Neapolis, they traveled<br />
to Philippi.<br />
Luke notes that Philippi was both a Roman colony and a major city of the<br />
region. As a colony, it tended to follow carefully the leading of Rome. Since<br />
Claudius, the emperor, had cast the Jews out<br />
of Rome in 49 CE. (see Acts 18:2), it is possible<br />
that a similar decision was made in<br />
Philippi. 1 Consequently, when Paul and Silas<br />
arrived in the fall of 50, they did not find a<br />
synagogue in which they could follow their<br />
standard process. So on the Sabbath, they<br />
went outside the city, looking for “a place of<br />
prayer.”<br />
When they got to the banks of the Gangites<br />
River, where they expected to find a<br />
gathering of Jewish men, they found only a<br />
group of women. Never one to let an opportunity<br />
go by, Paul talked to them about Jesus.<br />
One of the women was a merchant of purple<br />
fabrics from Thyatira. 2 Her name was Lydia.<br />
The nature of her profession shows that she was a part of the upper socioeconomic<br />
group. She is also termed “a worshiper of God” (Acts 16:14).<br />
PHILIPPI<br />
This city, originally called Crenides, was founded in the fourth century BCE and then named after Philip II, king of<br />
Macedonia. It was reestablished by Mark Antony in 42 BCE after a battle that he and Octavian fought against Brutus<br />
and Cassius. Because of Roman expansion toward Thrace and incorporation of the Scythian tribes along the<br />
Black Sea (ca. 46 CE), it was a garrison city on the edge of the empire at the time of the emperor Claudius.<br />

Living God’s Word<br />
Discovering Our Place in the Great Story of Scripture<br />
J. Scott Duvall And J. Daniel Hays<br />
Focusing on the Bible’s overarching narrative and on how each section fits into it, two Bible<br />
professors with pastors’ hearts invite students to experience the entire Bible and discover their<br />
place in the big picture.<br />
Each section of Living God’s Word deals with a portion of Scripture’s story and includes reading/<br />
listening preparation, explanation, summary, observations about theological significance,<br />
connections to the great story, and written assignments for further study. These features—<br />
combined with the authors’ engaging style—make this an ideal introductory college text.<br />

withstood them; the Lord gave all their enemies into their hands. Not one<br />
of all the Lord’s good promises to Israel failed; every one was fulfilled.<br />
As the book of Joshua draws to a close, we see Joshua calling the Israelites<br />
to renew their covenant commitment and to pledge that they will continue to<br />
serve God and obey his commandments.<br />
Thus the book of Joshua is basically a “good news” book. Joshua, the primary<br />
leader, is faithful to God and under his leadership the nation follows<br />
God. God blesses them and empowers them to complete the task he has called<br />

The Jews held strongly to these two important ideas — God’s present, universal<br />
reign over all now and God’s future reign on the earth. They longed for<br />
the day when God would enter this world, defeat his enemies, and establish<br />
his kingdom on the earth.<br />
Knowing this, you can imagine why Jesus’ message is considered outrageous.<br />
He has the courage and boldness to say that now, with his coming, the<br />
kingdom of God has actually arrived! While the Jews believed that God would<br />
intervene at the end of the age to defeat evil and set up his kingdom, Jesus is<br />
declaring that he is establishing God’s kingdom on earth now! This is radical<br />
stuff. Jesus proclaims the kingdom, heals the sick, drives out demons, feeds the<br />
hungry, and forgives sinners — all signs that the kingdom of God has arrived.<br />
In Jesus’ words and actions, the kingdom of God has become a present reality<br />
(Matt. 11:11 – 12; 12:28; 18:1 – 5; Luke 17:20 – 21).<br />
Jesus urges people to come under the personal reign of God or, in other<br />

This book is for the many Christians who<br />
feel as if the Bible teaching they receive<br />
comes in puzzle pieces they do not know<br />
how to fit together. As Michael Williams<br />
shows in this tour of the Bible, all these<br />
pieces actually connect in Christ to form<br />
a coherent picture. Jesus Christ is not<br />
only the focus of each biblical book but is<br />
also the primary way the Bible relates to<br />
contemporary circumstances.<br />
In addition to showing how relevant all<br />
the Bible’s sixty-six books remain today,<br />
Williams enlivens other Christian disciplines<br />
such as Bible reading, Scripture<br />
memorization, and evangelism. An excellent<br />
tool for students, teachers, and ministry leaders, this book<br />
is an invaluable guide for reading, studying, and understanding<br />
the entire Bible.<br />

With so many Bible translations available,<br />
choosing a version for teaching,<br />
study, or other uses can be a dizzying<br />
task. This book, written by two seasoned<br />
Bible translators, brings clarity and<br />
insight to the current debate over translations<br />
and translation theories. Readers<br />
will find out what goes into the whole<br />
process and what makes a translation<br />
accurate and reliable. An authoritative<br />
guide through the maze of translations<br />
issues, How to Choose a Translation for<br />
All Its Worth speaks with an objective,<br />
fair-minded voice to help pastors, everyday<br />
Bible readers, and students make wise, well-informed<br />
choices about Bible translations.<br />

Biblical Foundations and Contemporary Strategies<br />
Gailyn Van Rheenen<br />
In this second edition of Missions, long-time missionary Gailyn Van Rheenen revises and<br />
updates his classic text on the foundational issues of Christian missions. According to Van<br />
Rheenen, “In a rapidly changing world,… the central missionary vision of the church must be<br />
constantly renewed, lest its foundations become lost in the confusion of change or its practices<br />
trapped in missionary models of the past.”<br />
Van Rheenen helps renew the missionary vision by discussing areas such as:<br />
• The history of Christian mission, and how it affects where people are today<br />
• Spiritual formation for God’s mission<br />
• Missionary cycle<br />
• Cross-cultural communication<br />
• The character and calling of missionaries<br />
• Types of missionaries<br />
• Church maturation<br />
TextbookPlus.Zondervan.com<br />
• Selecting mission fields<br />
• The role of money in missions<br />
• Four levels of involvement in missions<br />
Accessible to students, practitioners, and laypeople alike, Missions provides a primary go-to<br />
resource for understanding and becoming involved in the dynamic activity of world missions.<br />
Gailyn van rheenen (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) is director of the church-planting<br />
ministry Mission Alive (www.missionalive.org), adjunct professor of missions at Abilene Christian<br />
University, and former missionary to East Africa. His website is www.missiology.org.<br />

Giving Blood<br />
A Fresh Paradigm for Preaching<br />
Leonard Sweet<br />
In this groundbreaking resource, bestselling<br />
author Len Sweet introduces<br />
readers to what he terms a “transductive”<br />
epistemology: a new model<br />
for understanding and communicating<br />
truth that will profoundly affect<br />
the way the church communicates to<br />
a new generation. Sweet argues that<br />
“knowing” is no longer simply a linear<br />
movement from propositions (deduction)<br />
or towards propositions (induction).<br />
He shows why older attempts<br />
usd $22.99<br />
that preach deductively (“telling ‘em<br />
Hardcover • 336 pages what we’re going to tell ‘em—and telling<br />
‘em what we’ve told ‘em,”) are no<br />
ISBN 9780310515456<br />
longer effective today, yet neither are<br />
inductive methods where people are<br />
encouraged to come to their own conclusions.<br />
Sweet offers an alternative to both approaches, showing us<br />
how to communicate the Bible as God’s storybook, his handiwork—and<br />
not just a rulebook of “do’s” and “don’ts” or a handbook<br />
for living. He challenges long-held assumptions about<br />
communicating the Bible, offering a fresh paradigm for preaching<br />
and teaching in the 21st century church.<br />

Center Church<br />
Doing Balanced, Gospel-Centered Ministry in Your City<br />
timothy keller<br />
book<br />
In Center Church, Timothy Keller<br />
offers challenging insights and provocative<br />
questions based on over<br />
twenty years of ministry in New York<br />
City. This book outlines a theological<br />
vision for ministry—based on classic<br />
doctrines but rethinking our assumptions<br />
about church for our time and<br />
place—organized around three core<br />
commitments:<br />
• Gospel-centered: The gospel of<br />
grace in Jesus Christ changes,<br />
everything, reshaping the content,<br />
tone, and strategy of all that we do.<br />
• City-centered: With a positive<br />
approach toward our culture, we<br />
learn to affirm that cities are won -<br />
derful, strategic, and underserved<br />
places for gospel ministry.<br />
• Movement-centered: Instead of<br />
building our own tribe, we seek the<br />
prosperity and peace of our commu -<br />
nity as we are led by the Holy Spirit.<br />
