Ric Machuga argues on biblical, historical, and theological grounds that universal salvation is necessary for a coherent proclamation of the Gospel. A creation in which some people suffer unending torment because God either can’t or won’t bring them to repentance is not good news. This last sentence is sure to provoke protest: “But what about free will?” Machuga responds by exposing modern assumptions.

Why did Jesus die? Did Jesus die so that God could forgive us for our sins? Many believe so. The most ancient view of the atonement teaches that Jesus did not die to appease the wrath of God or gain forgiveness for human sin, but rather to defeat sin, death, and the devil, and reveal to us the unconditional love and grace of God.

Culture is doing its best to convince the world there is nothing special about Jesus. And many Christians never get beyond a Sunday school understanding of their own faith. As a result, Christianity's most important historical fact—the resurrection—is often the most misunderstood, relegated to Easter and funeral services, creating a powerless Christianity. In Body of Proof, acclaimed apologist and scholar Dr. Jeremiah Johnston sets out to show why Jesus's victory over death is central to a believer's faith.

Anyone interested in religious matters should take the time to examine the life of Jesus of Nazareth. Christianity makes a remarkable claim: that Jesus was the unique son of God who came into the world to save humanity. If this is true, it is of immense importance. But is it true? That is what we examine in this study of the life, ministry, and person of Jesus of Nazareth.

Die wichtigsten Fragen, die sich jeder Mensch stellen kann, sind: Warum wurde Jesus Christus gekreuzigt? Warum musste er so viel leiden? Was hat das mit mir zu tun? Und wer schickte ihn letztendlich in den Tod? Jesu Leiden war ohnegleichen. Doch warum musste Christus leiden und sterben? Bei Jesu Tod geht es nicht um die Frage nach der Ursache, sondern um den Sinn - Gottes Sinn. John Piper hat aus dem Neuen Testament 50 Gründe gesammelt.

A leitura individualista e fragmentada do texto bíblico tem impedido aos cristãos uma compreensão mais abrangente de sua fé e de seu papel como cidadãos do reino. Além disso, reduzir a experiência religiosa a um mero carimbo no passaporte para o céu desvia o foco do fato de que o interesse de Deus não se resume apenas ao indivíduo, mas abrange toda a criação. Nesse sentido, Bernardo Cho convida o leitor e a leitora a refletirem sobre o todo das Escrituras, a fim de perceberem a unidade presente no enredo da salvação.

In this new book by New York Times best-selling author Immaculee Ilibagiza, listeners will rediscover this important message from Mary.

This book is an approach to Jesus's recorded words and teachings through his native language, Aramaic, answering many questions clearly and consistently, even if unexpectedly, no matter which Gospel you have in your hands.

The book of Revelation—which deals on a cosmic scale with good and evil, politics and empire, community and eternity—has intrigued and frustrated listeners since it was written. How do we make sense of John’s prophetic vision of cosmic war in light the nonviolence Jesus embodies in the gospels? What does it mean to tell us about Jesus, our world, and the future of all things? As End Times conspiracy theories surge, it’s more important than ever that we listen to the final book of the Bible without distorting the true message of Jesus.

InThe Jesus of Suburbia, Mike Erre reveals that we've created a Jesus in our own image. In a fresh, startling manner, Erre helps us understand that the real Jesus is calling us to live, act, and think in ways that overturn the status quo.

Why I Believe provides encouragement and a compelling, powerful declaration of what Christians believe and why.

Evocative reflections on three facets in our relationship with Jesus. People long for reality in their walk with Christ. To know him better, we must understand the different sides of his complex nature. Popular British author Adrian Plass draws on biblical stories and personal experience—as well as his keen understanding of people’s needs—as he explores the Safe Jesus, the Tender Jesus, and the Extreme Jesus.

How did early Christians come to believe that Jesus of Nazareth was the divine Son of God? This is the central question in this book. When Did Jesus Become God? is a transcribed conversation between Bart Ehrman and Michael Bird, with a helpful historiographic introduction by Robert Stewart that helps listeners understand the conclusions reached by Ehrman and Bird.

Wheaton College scholar Nicholas Perrin takes on Ehrman and others who claim that the text of the New Testament has been corrupted beyond recognition. Perrin gives us a layman's guide to textual criticism so that listeners can understand the subtleties of Ehrman's critiques, and provides firm evidence to suggest that the New Testament can be trusted.

In Disruption: Repurposing the Church to Redeem the Community, Dr. Mark DeYmaz explains how the local church can adapt itself to the community around it in such a way that gives it credibility in the neighborhood while advancing the gospel in the process.

Saint Athanasius was an astute apologist, proficient theologian, and champion of orthodox Christology. He earned the title Athanasius Contra Mundum for his willingness to take on the world in defending biblical truth.

In this accessible introduction to Jesus Christ, Robert Stein draws together the results of a career of research and writing on Jesus and the Gospels. This classic text treats every episode in the life of Jesus with historical care and attention to its significance for understanding the life and ministry of Jesus. Clearly written, ably argued, and geared to the needs of students, Jesus the Messiah will give probing minds a sure grounding in the life and ministry of Jesus.

The "death" spoken of in Genesis 3:3 was clearly not death as we know the word today. Adam and Eve went on to live for another 930 years and started the human race, so evidently, the death spoken of here was referring to spiritual death, what most Christians like to refer to today as "separation from God".

Jesus Christ has been given the name above all names, the highest seat of honor, the right to reign and rule. Yet the busyness of our lives and the diversions of this world often distract us from knowing the most important person we could ever know. Perhaps we need some help to see Jesus afresh. In this thoughtful study and worshipful reflection, two influential pastors draw on decades of pastoral experience in order to guide us through the whole sweep of Scripture and examine seven key qualities of Jesus's identity and ministry.

Like different artists who render the same subject using unique styles and points of view, the Gospels paint four distinctive portraits of the same Jesus of Nazareth. To Christians worldwide, he is the centerpiece of history, the object of faith, hope, and worship. Even those who do not follow him admit the vast influence of his life. With clarity and insight, biblical scholar Mark Strauss illuminates the four biblical Gospels.
