The Kingdom of God di Christopher W. Morgan
This is a very good discussion on what the Kingdom of God is drawing together biblical scholarship, historical theology and systematics. I published a full review on my blog at: http://thoughtsprayersandsongs.com/2013/01/24/community-theology-of-the-kingdom-...
18/10/16. I am giving this book to Jono. I have an ebook copy in Bluefire reader.
This was a very balanced and irenic presentation of Calvinistic objections to Arminianism, though at times they seemed to raise objections to a caricature. I'm looking forward to reading the companion volume on the other side.
Actually, I only read the chapters on Christ's death and resurrection. (I downloaded a free PDF excerpt from Crossway when it was being offered around Easter.) But now I would definitely be interested in reading the rest. Peterson explores the many dimensions of Christ's saving work: his incarnation, sinless life, ascension, session, Pentecost, intercession, and second coming as well as his death and resurrection. He lays out the biblical basis for each of these and explains how they effect our salvation. I was especially fascinated by the chapter on how Christ's resurrection is saving, as this is so critical to our salvation and our understanding of the fullness of our Savior's work, but isn't discussed under the heading of soteriology as often as his death.
Peterson's book definitely moved me to contemplate the wondrous inheritance we have by virtue of our union with Christ. I think it would be useful to many Christians whose grasp of the theology, like mine, may be wanting. It cites learned biblical commentaries but is also pretty accessible. This is a book I would want to have on my shelf in the future.… (altro)
