Book Synopsis Salvation to the Ends of the Earth by : Andreas J. Köstenberger
Download or read book Salvation to the Ends of the Earth written by Andreas J. Köstenberger and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few biblical topics are as important as mission. Mission is linked inextricably to humanity's sinfulness and need for redemption and to God's provision of salvation in the person and work of Jesus Christ. This good news of salvation must be made known. The saving mission of Jesus constitutes the foundation for Christian mission, and the Christian gospel is its message. This second edition of New Studies in Biblical Theology volume Salvation to the Ends of the Earth emphasizes the way in which the Bible presents a continuing narrative of God's mission—ranging from the story of Israel to the story of Jesus and that of the early Christians. At the same time, it provides a robust historical and chronological backbone to the unfolding of the early Christian mission. The apostle Paul's writings and the General Epistles are incorporated with the Gospel with which they have the closest and most natural canonical and historical affinity. Addressing key issues in biblical theology, the works comprising New Studies in Biblical Theology are creative attempts to help Christians better understand their Bibles. The NSBT series is edited by D. A. Carson, aiming to simultaneously instruct and to edify, to interact with current scholarship and to point the way ahead.
Book Synopsis The Mission of God's People by : Christopher J. H. Wright
Download or read book The Mission of God's People written by Christopher J. H. Wright and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chris Wright’s pioneering 2006 book, The Mission of God, revealed that the typical Christian understanding of “missions” encompasses only a small part of God’s overarching mission for the world. God is relentlessly reclaiming the entire world for himself. In The Mission of God’s People, Wright shows how God’s big-picture plan directs the purpose of God’s people, the church. Wright emphasizes what the Old Testament teaches Christians about being the people of God. He addresses questions of both ecclesiology and missiology with topics like “called to care for creation,” “called to bless the nations,” “sending and being sent,” and “rejecting false gods.” As part of the Biblical Theology for Life Series, this book provides pastors, teachers, and lay learners with first-rate biblical study while at the same time addressing the practical concerns of contemporary ministry. The Mission of God’s People promises to enliven and refocus the study, teaching, and ministry of those truly committed to joining God’s work in the world.

This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few biblical topics are as important as mission. Mission is linked inextricably to humanity's sinfulness and need for redemption, and to God's provision of salvation in the person and work of Jesus Christ. This 'good news' of salvation must be made known. The saving mission of Jesus constitutes the foundation for Christian mission, and the Christian gospel is its message. This second edition of Salvation to the Ends of the Earth emphasizes the way in which the Bible presents a continuing narrative of the story of God’s mission – ranging from the story of Israel to the story of Jesus and that of the early Christians. At the same time, importantly, it provides a robust historical and chronological backbone to the unfolding of the early Christian mission. With regard to the latter, Paul and the General Epistles are incorporated with the Gospel with which they have the closest and most natural canonical and historical affinity: James and Hebrews with Matthew; 1 – 2 Peter and Jude with Mark; Paul’s letters with Luke–Acts; and 1 – 3 John and the Apocalypse with John. The chapter on the second-temple period has been moved to an appendix so as not to interrupt the flow of the presentation of the biblical story-line and theology of mission.

Book Synopsis Mission in the New Testament by : William J. Larkin
Download or read book Mission in the New Testament written by William J. Larkin and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive articulation of New Testament teachings on mission from a contemporary American evangelical standpoint. Mission in the New Testament contributes a fresh statement of the biblical foundations of mission, serving as a catalyst for completion of the church's universal mission in this generation.After investigating the historical background of the idea of mission in the Hebrew Scriptures, inter-testamental Judaism, the life of Jesus and the beginnings of the church, the book proceeds in a roughly canonical order through the New Testament. Essays analyze the works of Paul, the Synoptic gospels, Acts of the Apostles, the General Epistles, and the Book of Revelation. Well-versed in the historical-critical method of biblical interpretation, editors and contributors alike offer a cogent argument for recovering the "missional horizon" of the New Testament.
Book Synopsis Paul's Understanding of the Church's Mission by : Robert Lewis Plummer
Download or read book Paul's Understanding of the Church's Mission written by Robert Lewis Plummer and published by OCMS. This book was released on 2006 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages in a careful study of Pauls letters to determine if the apostle expected the communities to which he wrote to engage in missionary activity. It helpfully summarizes the discussion on this debated issue, judiciously handling contested texts and provides a way forward in addressing this critical question. While admitting that Paul rarely explicitly commands the communities he founded to evangelize, Plummer amasses significant incidental data to provide a convincing case that Paul did indeed expect his churches to engage in mission activity. Throughout the study, Plummer progressively builds a theological basis for the churchs mission that is both distinctively Pauline and compelling.

Book Synopsis Mission in the Old Testament by : Walter C. Jr. Kaiser
Download or read book Mission in the Old Testament written by Walter C. Jr. Kaiser and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2012-05-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Kaiser questions the notion that the New Testament represents a deviation from God's supposed intention to save only the Israelites. He argues that--contrary to popular opinion--the older Testament does not reinforce an exclusive redemptive plan. Instead, it emphasizes a common human condition and God's original and continuing concern for all humanity. Kaiser shows that the Israelites' mission was always to actively spread to gentiles the Good News of the promised Messiah. This new edition adds two new chapters, freshens material throughout, expands the bibliography, and includes study questions.
Download or read book Mission Possible written by Julie C. Ma and published by Wipf and Stock. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is ""written by foot,"" as I hiked the mountains to share God's good news; a missiology book ""for the rest of us,"" so that missiology will become liberated from the specialists to every believer. On the other hand, during my own teaching, the need for a textbook that is simple and friendly, and yet solid in biblical interpretation, became apparent particularly for the ""majority Christian world."" This book links the biblical teaching to the actual and contemporary mission setting, thus serving two important purposes: Asian minds and all non-western worlds learn more effectively as examples are given; and the biblical development is brought to our contemporary setting, making the Bible come to alive today. The additional chapters were written while working in a very different context: in Oxford serving mission leaders of the global Church. These two radically different contexts, however, did not change the message of the scripture, affirming the universal claim of its authority. Julie Ma's book is a refreshing and much needed return to first principles. This is God's world; reconciliation is God's work; self-giving service for others is God's way. Mission is possible precisely because it is God's mission, in God's world, undertaken by God's people, in God's way. God's mission is not only possible, but its ultimate objective is inevitable. Dr. Jonathan Bonk, Executive Director Emeritus, OMSC; Research Professor of Mission, Boston University Since the original edition of the book came in 2005, Dr. Ma's Mission Possible has been praised and quoted in a large scale, not only in the realm of academic field but also in the lay people's daily life. It is thus not a surprise at all to see the revised and expanded edition of the book. By doing this, she demonstrates in a fascinating way that the church, whose reason of existence is to do missionary work, is the earthly institute between the first coming of Christ and the parousia of our Lord. Dr. Younghoon Lee, Senior Pastor, Yoido Full Gospel Church Two important new factors characterize the Christian mission in our area: internalization and the growing Pentecostal movement. Therefore I welcome this contribution to mission theology from a Korean scholar, a woman who works both in village tribal evangelism and theologian education (for the first edition). Dr. Paul E. Pierson, Dean Emeritus, School of Intercultural Studies, Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena, California, USA Julie C. Ma (MA and PhD in Intercultural Studies, Fuller) served as a Korean missionary in the Philippines (1981-2006), and as Research Tutor of Missiology at Oxford Centre for Mission Studies, Oxford, UK. She is currently Associate Professor of Missiology and Intercultural Studies, Oral Roberts University, Tulsa, OK. Among her publications are When the Spirit Meets the Spirits: Pentecostal Ministry Among the Kankana-ey Tribe in the Philippines (Peter Lang, 2000), and (with Wonsuk Ma) Mission in the Spirit: Towards a Pentecostal/Charismatic Missiology (Oxford: Regnum, 2010). She served as a general council member and executive committee member of Edinburgh 2010.
Book Synopsis The Message of Ezekiel by : Christopher J.H. Wright
Download or read book The Message of Ezekiel written by Christopher J.H. Wright and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2001-08-10 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ezekiel comes to us as a stranger from a distant time and land. Who is this priest who, on his thirtieth birthday, has a dazzling vision of God on a wheeled throne? Who is this odd prophet who engages in outlandish street theater and speaks for God on international affairs? Who is this seer who paints murals of apocalyptic doom and then of a restored temple bursting with emblems of paradise? Are we bound to take this literally, reading prophet and newspaper side by side? Or is there a better way? Christopher Wright is a proven interpreter and communicator of the Old Testament, and in this commentary he masterfully opens our eyes to see and understand the message of Ezekiel. Ezekiel's vision of the glory of God--its departure and return--is first set within Israel's history and then in the culmination of God's promises in Christ. Embedded in the pattern of the strange, the bizarre and the wonderful is a word that still speaks to God's people today.
