The Atonement: Its Meaning and Significance

Why is the cross the crux of Christianity? What are the meaning and significance of the atomement?

Fifty Reasons Why He Came to Die

WHY? The most important questions anyone can ask are: Why was Jesus Christ crucified? Why did he suffer so much? What has this to do with me? Finally, who sent him to his death? 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…

In the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it?""

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…

Union with Christ: In Scripture, History, and Theology

Union with Christ is the central truth of the whole biblical teaching about salvation. The entirety of our relationship with God can be summed up in this doctrine. Yet when people ask what this union actually is, we flounder. The incarnation shows that God has made us to be united with him, and God has given us his Word to enable us to understand the nature of this union. Set out with Robert Le…
