The Church has a problem with Judges, it is so earthy, primitive and violent that it is categorised as 'embarrassing scripture'. Such an attitude is, of course, wrong and Ralph Davis makes Judges digestible by analysing the major literary and theological themes discovered in each section, provoding a 'theocentric' exposition.

Many Christians are like the blind men trying to describe an elephant, each thinking it was all like the part he happened to be touching. They have a grasp of parts of the Christian faith, but they don't see how it all fits together. If you have ever wondered about how the parts fit together, Such a Great Salvation: An Overview of the Christian Faith is just right for you. From the Garden of Eden to the New Jerusalem, Such a Great Salvation is a handbook that unfolds God's great plan for humanity. Offering a broad panoramic overview of the Christian faith, author Henry Summerall begins with the dawn of the universe, traces the fall of mankind, and the subsequent redemption and glorification of God's people. Broad in scope yet practical in application, written from an evangelical but non-denominational perspective, Such a Great Salvation draws Christians and non-Christians alike to explore more fully for themselves the great adventure of the Christian faith. With his unusual combination of careers as a full-time lawyer and a part-time ordained minister in a congregation for over twenty years, Henry Summerall, Jr. offers a unique perspective on the Christian faith. Having been at various periods in his life a Baptist, an Episcopalian, a Traditional Anglican, and a Lutheran, Henry Summerall, Jr. brings a diverse yet sound interpretation of the Scriptures.

Though the global center of Christianity has been shifting south and east for decades, very few biblical and theological resources have dealt with the seismic changes afoot. The Majority World Theology series seeks to remedy that lack by gathering well-regarded Christian thinkers from around the world to discuss the significance of Christian teaching in their respective contexts. This textbook series introduces students and scholars to these enlightening developments from the Majority World. In So Great a Salvation nine scholars from the global church reflect deeply on soteriology in the Majority World. For many Christians outside Europe and North America, the doctrine of salvation is not a mere theological construct but, rather, a matter of life and death. Taking African, Asian, Latin American, and First Nations cultural contexts into account, this book allows readers to see God's creative deliverance in a fresh light.

In order, then, to attach ourselves to this great means of salvation, we must first of all consider how necessary it is to us, and how powerful it is to obtain for us all the graces that we can desire from God, if we know how to ask for them as we ought. Hence, in the first part, we will speak first of the necessity and power of prayer; and next, of the conditions necessary to make it efficacious with God. Then, in the second part, we will show that the grace of prayer is given to all; and there we will treat of the manner in which grace ordinarily operates. Aeterna Press

This volume presents a dialogue between historians, exegetes, and theologians on the background and key themes of the atonement in Hebrews. Presenting a range of differing perspectives and contributing to the renewed conversation between biblical and theological scholarship, the argument is structured in two parts: contexts and themes within Hebrews. Focusing on atonement not only in the Old Testament but also in the Greco-Roman world, and touching on themes such as sacrifice, plight and solution, and faith, these contributions shed light on the concept of the atonement in a directly scriptural way. The whole is a definitive collection of studies on the atonement in Hebrews that will be of service well beyond the confines of Hebrews' specialists, a collection as important for what it says about the atonement and the 21st century church as for what it says about Hebrews.

In Exodus 34 Moses asks to see God's glory, and God reveals himself as a God who is merciful and just. James Hamilton Jr. contends that from this passage comes a biblical theology that unites the meta-narrative of Scripture under one central theme: God's glory in salvation through judgment. Hamilton begins in the Old Testament by showing that Israel was saved through God's judgment on the Egyptians and the Caananites. God was glorified through both his judgment and mercy, accorded in salvation to Israel. The New Testament unfolds the ultimate display of God's glory in justice and mercy, as it was God's righteous judgment shown on the cross that brought us salvation. God's glory in salvation through judgment will be shown at the end of time, when Christ returns to judge his enemies and save all who have called on his name. Hamilton moves through the Bible book by book, showing that there is one theological center to the whole Bible. The volume's systematic method and scope make it a unique resource for pastors, professors, and students.
