Introducing the Bible: The New Testament (Volume II)

This book provides an up-to-date theologically balanced introduction to the Bible and its study, which takes biblical scholarship seriously and takes an affirming stance on faith. Its treatment of the New Testament literature attempts to provide a theologically balanced approach with attention to traditional concerns of introduction, plus a focus on issues of relevance and practical religious value in the study and interpretation of scripture. In doing so, the authors avoid the polemic tone of some of the more conservative introductions, as well as the more speculative and 'value-free' perspectives of more progressive readings. Each chapter relating to a biblical book is divided into the following categories: a brief overview of the book; background concerns; literary considerations; the message; value and relevance for today; issues for discussion and reflection; further reading. Under these rubrics, the volume explores a wide range of questions readers have put to the bible both historically and more recently.

Finding Joy: Paul’s Encouraging Message to the Philippians

Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come . . . Jesus’ warning still echoes down the ages. Deception, war, plagues, pestilences, persecution—all would be a part of the last days. And every day we witness more and more evidence that the end is near. But how much longer will time last? What are the key events that will shape the end of this earth’s history? Is it possible to survive? Find the answers you have been searching for (and ones you never expected to find) in this Bible-based study that reveals the solid truths about the end-times. Throughout the journey you will find that it’s not so much what you know as who you know that will not only help you survive Armageddon but also look forward to it with joy!
