"The instant a man knows that he is the righteousness of God in Christ, and knows what that righteousness means, Satan is defeated." --E. W. Kenyon In this classic Christian work, legendary Bible teacher E. W. Kenyon fully describes biblical righteousness. The church has been good at teaching about man's need of righteousness, his weakness and his inability to please God. But far too many believers remain in that shameful state of sin condemnation because the church has neglected to proclaim who we are in Christ, that righteousness is not reserved for someday in heaven--it is available to us now! Unless you know who you are, and what you are in Christ, you cannot live a victorious life; Satan, sin, and disease will be your masters. Righteousness is the ability to stand in the presence of God without any sense of guilt or inferiority. If you live a life of weakness and defeat, it is because you do not know what you are in Christ. The supreme need of the church at this hour is to know who we are in Christ, to fully comprehend how the Father Himself looks upon us, and to walk in the knowledge that righteousness can be ours today.

This book seeks to fill a gap on the important topic of God's judgment. It is written for Christians who desire to have a biblical worldview that helps them to live faithfully for Jesus Christ. It investigates what the apostle Paul has to say in his letters about God's judgment. The worldview that emerges is one that must not be ignored: of judgment as fundamental to our human life as Adam's descendants, of God's judgment at work in the world today, and of the final judgment as the certain future for every person. At the center is the decisive judgment of our sin in Christ at the cross, which is God's answer to our judgment problem. For each of these four aspects of judgment, key questions are considered, with the central question being, "How do we live in the light of this truth?"

The doctrine of theosis has enjoyed a recent resurgence among varied theological traditions across the realms of historical, dogmatic, and exegetical theology. In Christification: A Lutheran Approach to Theosis, Jordan Cooper evaluates this teaching from a Lutheran perspective. He examines the teachings of the church fathers, the New Testament, and the Lutheran Confessional tradition in conversation with recent scholarship on theosis. Cooper proposes that the participationist soteriology of the early fathers expressed in terms of theosis is compatible with Luther's doctrine of forensic justification. The historic Lutheran tradition, Scripture, and the patristic sources do not limit soteriological discussions to legal terminology, but instead offer a multifaceted doctrine of salvation that encapsulates both participatory and forensic motifs. This is compared and contrasted with the development of the doctrine of deification in the Eastern tradition arising from the thought of Pseudo-Dionysius. Cooper argues that the doctrine of the earliest fathers--such as Irenaeus, Athanasius, and Justin--is primarily a Christological and economic reality defined as "Christification." This model of theosis is placed in contradistinction to later Neoplatonic forms of deification.

The authors use an extended metaphor to serve up a little book with a big message about two essentials of the Christian life. What do bookends have to do with the Christian life? They are a metaphor that Jerry Bridges has developed over the years, and which he and coauthor Bob Bevington flesh out in this small volume. The two "bookends" explain not only how we as sinners can be made acceptable to a holy God but also we can find the power to change. They are thus essential for the Christian life. In a unique book that should garner the attention of a wide range of readers, the authors use their extended metaphor to help readers answer questions like: How can I overcome persistent guilt? How can I deal with the pressure to measure up? Where can I find the motivation it takes to grow? How can I live the Christian life with both my head and my heart? How can I be sure God loves me? How can I change in an authentic and lasting way? So what are the bookends of the Christian life? Christ's righteousness as it is transferred to dependent believers, and the Holy Spirit's power as it enables their transformation. In continuing their goal to re-center the church at large onto the historic gospel of Jesus Christ, Bridges and Bevington have served up this little book with a big message so that believers and seekers alike can understand these two keys to a genuine Christian life.

Mankind's great body of knowledge has come to us through the five senses. Sense knowledge can see the handiwork of God and can see the design in creation, but it cannot find the Designer. In fact, it's often unwilling to admit that there is a Designer because it cannot see, hear, taste, smell, or touch Him. Sense knowledge says that faith cannot produce miracles. It does not know why we were created, nor can it tell us the source of life, light, motion, gravity, or hundreds of other things. But revelation knowledge holds all of these answers and more. In The Two Kinds of Knowledge: God's Wisdom Is Greater Than Our Senses, E. W. Kenyon explains how we can discover the wisdom of God in His Word. This new kind of knowledge, which the secular world cannot grasp, brings us to a new kind of life, taking us out of our failures and weaknesses to fill our hungry hearts with love, faith, and grace.

Step Up to What God Has Said in His Word The Two Kinds of Faith explains directly from the Scriptures what real faith is. This book is a must-read for anybody who desires a deeper walk with God. Read it expecting the Holy Spirit to reveal principles that are easily applicable to your life situations, bringing powerful results because the Word of God is true and practical. What are the two kinds of faith? 1. "Sense knowledge" faith, where we must see, hear, or touch to believe. 2. Real faith, where we do not see, hear, or touch, yet we believe--and receive. We might understand this difference intellectually. Yet if we're not actually applying it in our everyday lives, it can have serious consequences for our relationship with God and the effectiveness of our prayers. Some people lose faith altogether when they feel God has not heard their requests. Many whose prayer lives were ineffective have turned to philosophical and metaphysical cults. Unanswered prayers stand between the believer and a life of faith. No matter what we may think or feel in the natural, God's Word is true, and it is the only foundation for faith. To help us live in this reality, we must actively exercise faith rather than "hope." You never receive what you are "hoping" for. Hope is always in the future. But faith is now! As we become one with the Living Word in our actions, faith will become an unconscious reality for us. We will never need to struggle to produce faith. We will only think of the need before us and God's ability to meet it. Real faith means acting on the Word, independent of any physical evidence. To believe is to step up to what God has said in His Word, and to have faith is to arrive there.

A positive, redemptive-historical treatment of justification using a biblical theological framework. Justification reorients us to Gods purpose for us in creation: that we should live freely, yet in absolute dependence on him.
