"The Mystery of Christ is well-written, displays ample knowledge of issues discussed concerning covenant theology by Baptists and paedobaptists, grounds its arguments in scriptural exegesis and theology, recovers old arguments for a new day, presents a cohesive map of the covenants of Scripture, and exalts our Lord Jesus Christ, the last Adam, throughout." -- from cover review by Richard C. Barcellos

The Bible records a number of covenants that God made with his people. However, rather than merely abstract ideas for theologians and scholars to study, the covenants in Scripture hold the key to understanding the Bible’s overarching story and message. In God’s Kingdom through God’s Covenants, two world-class scholars offer readers an engaging snapshot of how God has chosen to lovingly relate to his people in history, tracing the significance of the concept of “covenant” through both the Old and New Testaments. Explaining the differences between covenant theology and dispensationalism while offering a thoughtful alternative to both, this book ultimately highlights the covenantal framework through which God has promised to remain faithful to his people.

RESTORING THAT WHICH WAS LOST—what does that mean? There are over thirty-three thousand Christian denominations in the world. Why so many? With all the preachers and ministers in this world all preaching something different and telling people various interpretations of the Bible and what was supposed to be the truth, how can we have so many different understandings of what God had originally planned for mankind? A great many of you reading these words have been disillusioned by religious Christianity and have not experienced the real life transformation that takes place when we enter into what I call the covenant kingdom of Jesus Christ. The story of God’s interactions with mankind have been written about in the Bible as well as many other writings around the world, and all relate to a God who desires to have interaction with humans. If this is so, then what is this story, and how does it affect your life? This is an excellent question and is the subject matter for this book. This book may very well be the most important book you have ever read, and I can guarantee that understanding the story and how to adopt it to modern-day life will absolutely change your life forever here on this earth and even in eternity. Truth is never original—it is discovered, not invented. ROB BOARD explains to us what it was that was lost and what God’s plan of restoration really is. Jesus came to this earth to fulfill the heart desire of the Father and to RESTORE THAT WHICH WAS LOST by establishing His COVENANT KINGDOM. Let us enter in and discover what was lost and then what was restored. This, my friends, is the essence of the story of God and His interactions with the human family.

“Behold, my covenant is with you, and you shall be the father of a multitude of nations.” —Genesis 17:4 Throughout the Bible, God has related to his people through covenants.

This book walks through six covenants from Genesis to Revelation, helping us grasp the overarching narrative of Scripture and see the salvation God has planned for us since the beginning of time—bolstering our faith in God and giving us hope for the future. Part of the Short Studies in Biblical Theology series.

Modern movements such as neo-Calvinism, the New Perspective on Paul, and the emerging church have popularized a view of Christianity and culture that calls for the redemption of earthly society and institutions. Many Christians have reflexively embraced this view, enticed by the socially active and engaged faith it produces. Living in God's Two Kingdoms illustrates how a two-kingdoms model of Christianity and culture affirms much of what is compelling in these transformationist movements while remaining faithful to the whole counsel of Scripture. By focusing on God's response to each kingdom—his preservation of the civil society and his redemption of the spiritual kingdom—VanDrunen teaches readers how to live faithfully in each sphere. Highlighting vital biblical distinctions between honorable and holy tasks, VanDrunen's analysis will challenge Christians to be actively and critically engaged in the culture around them while retaining their identities as sojourners and exiles in this world.
