God in Patristic Thought

This book assembles the evidence for what the Greek Fathers, the men whose constructive thought underlies the creeds, really thought and taught about the nature of God. It shows that they were original thinkers, with a profound reverence for the text of the Scriptures, and minds keenly trained to discuss what ultimate truths were expressed in the scriptural text and what reality should be ascri…

Covenant and Eschatology: The Divine Drama

In this innovative work in theological method and hermeneutics, Michael S. Horton uses the motif of the covenant as a way of binding together God's "word" and God's "act." Seeking an integration of theological method with the content of Christian theology, Horton emphasizes God's covenant as God's way of working for redemption in the world. Horton maintains a substantial dialogue with important…

Evil and the Cross: An Analytical Look at the Problem of Pain

"Evil is conquered as evil because God turns it back upon itself." -From the Conclusion Evil. All languages have a word for it, yet philosophers and theologians alike have been unsuccessful in trying to understand it. Where did it come from? Why is it here?

The answer to the last question is that God did. Jesus was God's Son. The suffering was unsurpassed, but the whole message of the Bible leads to this answer. The central issue of Jesus' death is not the cause, but…

The Gospel Offer is Free

Does God command all sinners to repent and believe? Does God desire the salvation of all sinners? Yes, says the Bible, yes to both questions. But many who love the doctrines of grace are confused. They think God's absolute sovereignty in election, Christ's particular redemption of the elect, and the Holy Spirit's specific application of that redemption to the elect, conflicts with the "free off…

The Holy Spirit: Contours of Christian Theology

The Holy Spirit, once forgotten, has been "rediscovered" in the twentieth century—or has he? Sinclair Ferguson believes we should rephrase this common assertion: "While his work has been recognized, the Spirit himself remains to many Christians an anonymous, faceless aspect of the divine being." In order to redress this balance, Ferguson seeks to recover the who of the Spirit fully as much as…

This book clearly explains the theological foundatio…
