The Unvarnished Jesus: The Beauty of Christ and His Ugly Rivals

"Powerful, trustworthy… beautiful? Samuel G. Parkison makes a startling claim: Jesus is the most beautiful man to ever exist. His defence is theoretical and experiential: he knows him to be ultimate beauty and he has experienced him to be so. Deconstructing cultural notions that beauty is subjective or sentimental, Parkison constructs an impressive picture of God’s breathtaking beauty. On this firm foundation, the only building to rise is one that testifies to Jesus, the God–man, as the most beautiful man that ever lived. There’s beauty on every page of Jesus’ story. From before time, the beautiful foreknowledge of the Father prepared for the beauty of the incarnation. From this beautiful birth came a ministry brimming with beauty, and a death that overflowed with it. This beautiful sunset is followed by a resurrection sunrise: the beautiful declaration that salvation is secure. Having ascended, with beauty unbound, he now reigns forever as our ceaseless intercessor. Through the pages of this journey, the unvarnished Jesus radiates with a true beauty like nothing and no one else. His rivals, the lesser versions, knockoffs and dupes, are ugly in comparison to the beautiful Jesus of the Holy Scriptures. He is the only one through whom satisfaction and communion with God, the ultimate beauty we’re wired to desire, is found. This is a beauty that everyone needs to know and experience. With sidebars and a glossary to distil complex terms, readers are invited to delve deeper into the beauty of Jesus. There’s beauty in the big words, and it’s within the grasp of every reader. So, put the proposition to the test. Read and revel in Jesus; he’s beautiful. "

The Mission of the Triune God: A Theology of Acts

"Understanding Luke’s Narrative in the Book of Acts The book of Acts is unlike any other in Scripture; it has no rival in terms of a book spanning so many different lands.

When believers see how these events worked together to fulfill God’s promises, they gain a better understanding of the Trinitarian heart of Acts. In The Mission of the Triune God, author Patrick Schreiner argues that Luke’s theology stems from the order of his narrative. He shows how the major themes in Acts, including the formation of the church, salvation offered to all flesh, and the prolific spread of the gospel, connect. Through Schreiner’s clear presentation and helpful graphics, readers follow the early church as it grows “all under the plan of God, centered on King Jesus, and empowered by the Spirit.” - Covers Main Theological Themes: A great companion to commentaries on Acts - Studies the Birth of the Church Age: Schreiner examines the lives of early Christians after Jesus’s ascension - Informative and Accessible: Tables and graphics help readers visualize key theological themes - Part of the New Testament Theology series "

Christ Crucified: A Theology of Galatians

"Join New Testament Scholar Thomas Schreiner as He Explores the Meaning and Purpose of Galatians In a time marked by confusion and change, the pathway to salvation for the Galatians seemed unclear.

Schreiner addresses the conflict between Paul and his opponents in Galatia, examines the gospel itself, and shows what it looks like to live out the truth of the gospel in the new era.

By looking at the lessons they learned, suffering pilgrims today are invited to join the tradition of waiting in hope."
