Creation Regained: Biblical Basics For A Refeormational Worldview

Plot

This is set of 3 Bibical Classics Library paperbacks: The Cruciality of the Cross--P.T. Forsyth The Congregationalist theologian, P.T.Forsyth (1848-1921), has been described as an English precursor of Karl Barth. He is remembered especially for his emphasis on God's love as 'holy love'. Forsyth believed that "you do not understand Christ until you understand His Cross... The feeble gospel preaches 'God is ready to forgive', the mighty gospel preaches 'God has redeemed'." In this book he shows how the Atonement is central not only to the New Testament gospel but to Christian experience and even to the leading features of contemporary thought, taken for granted by unbelievers. Prophetically (for he was writing in 1909) he asks"What is our social ardour to live on after a few disillusioning generations?" The book ends with a powerful essay on the significance of the blood of Christ, challenging alike those who wallow in it and those who deprecate it. Creation Regained:Albert M Wolters In an attempt to spell out the content of a biblical worldview and how it is significant for our lives as we seek to be obedient to the Scriptures, Albert M Wolters has written this brief and straightforward examination of the reformational worldview, including applications in four areas: human aggression, spiritual gifts,human sexuality and dance. Gospel and Wisdom: Graeme Goldsworthy Negleted in today's climate, wisdom is a significant concept in both the Old and New Testaments. Applying the method of biblical theology, the author aims to place widom literature in its Christian context, firm in his conviction that wisdom is a key dimension of the Christian life and finds its centre in the person of Christ.
