When in Romans
Author: Beverly Roberts Gaventa
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 9780801097386
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Invites Readers of Romans to Expand Their View of God and the Gospel When reading the book of Romans, we often focus on the quotable passages, making brief stopovers and not staying long enough to grasp some of the big ideas it contains. Instead of raiding Paul's most famous letter for a passage here or a theme there, leading New Testament scholar Beverly Roberts Gaventa invites us to linger in Romans. She asks that we stay with the letter long enough to see how Romans reframes our tidy categories and dramatically enlarges our sense of the gospel. Containing profound insights written in accessible prose and illuminating references to contemporary culture, this engaging book explores the cosmic dimensions of the gospel that we read about in Paul's letter. Gaventa focuses on four key issues in Romans--salvation, identity, ethics, and community--that are crucial both for the first century and for our own. As she helps us navigate the book of Romans, she shows that the gospel is far larger, wilder, and more unsettling than we generally imagine it to be.

The Power of the Gospel
Author: Sally Van Wick
Publisher: Calvary Chapel
ISBN: 9780998392738
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Are you living in the power of the gospel? Of Paul's thirteen New Testament epistles, Romans is regarded as one of the richest. It is packed with both doctrine and application for daily life, reminding us that the gospel of Jesus Christ is not just something to believe but a truth to live out practically. But that's not always so easy to do. Romans was written at a time when people were either abusing grace and living in blatant sin or adding to grace by clinging to the traditions of men-a lot like today. The Power of the Gospel addresses these problems, offering an inductive overview of the book of Romans for women who, whether individually or in groups, want to dig into the Scripture and find help to truly live in victory over sin. Paul's epistle provides a firm foundation not only in biblical doctrine but also in the grace of Jesus Christ so you can move from defeat to victory. I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. Romans 1:16

Romans
Author: Jared C. Wilson
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433534444
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
The Knowing the Bible series is a new resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God's Word. Each 12-week study leads participants through one book of the Bible and is made up of four basic components: (1) Reflection questions designed to help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) "Gospel Glimpses" highlighting the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) "Whole-Bible Connections" showing how any given passage connects to the Bible's overarching story of redemption culminating in Christ; and (4) "Theological Soundings" identifying how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from a wide array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God's grace on each and every page of the Bible. The book of Romans was Paul's greatest literary achievement, a majestic letter in which the apostle expounds on crucial doctrines such as original sin, election, substitutionary atonement, the role of the law, and justification by faith alone. Plumbing the theological depths, Jared Wilson writes with a pastor's eye toward understanding and application as he explains the biblical text with clarity and passion, helping readers follow along as Paul recounts the history of salvation and illuminates the glories of the cross of Christ.
