Heaven

In this winsome and straightforward study of the doctrines of the Christian faith, readers will gain a unique understanding of topics such as: God, revelation, humanity, sin, Christ and his work, salvation, the church, and the future. This book takes a fresh approach by framing its doctrinal study in light of the biblical story. In each chapter, application sections connect the concepts to our identity and mission as believers.

The Biblical Story and Our Faith

Christian Theology

In Christian Theology, author Christopher W. Morgan presents an accessible introduction to the core areas of systematic theology, including God, revelation, humanity, sin, Christ and his work, the church, and the future. Each chapter highlights Scripture's teaching on a topic as it unfolds in the Bible's story line, intentionally connecting readers to the doctrines with a focus on personal application and missional living.

In this unique and insightful work, Robert Peterson insists that we look afresh at all that the Bible teaches about who our Savior is and what he has accomplished, with the conviction that a careful examination of this teaching will lead us to adoration and worship. Peterson explains the saving work of Christ, both his deeds and the biblical pictures illustrating them, and thereby points to the magnitude of what Jesus did to save sinners. Offered here is a substantive, significant, and enduring treatise on a key Christian doctrine—the work of Christ.

The Work of Christ

Salvation Accomplished by the Son

The doctrine of believers’ union with Christ has undergone a renaissance in recent years. Evangelicals are rightly fascinated by this previously neglected doctrine—a doctrine with wide-ranging implications for the whole of Christian theology and the Christian life. Drawing on his extensive teaching and research experience, theologian Robert Peterson has written one of the most comprehensive theological treatments of union with Christ to date, highlighting the Spirit’s crucial role in uniting God to his people.

Union with Christ

Salvation Applied by the Spirit

Our culture has a lot to say about heaven. But too much of it is based more on imaginative speculation or “supernatural” experiences than on the Bible itself. In the latest addition to the Theology in Community series, Christopher Morgan and Robert Peterson have assembled an interdisciplinary team of evangelical scholars to explore the doctrine of heaven from a variety of angles. Among other contributors, Ray Ortlund examines the concept of heaven in the Old Testament, Gerald Bray explores the history of theological reflection about heaven, and Ajith Fernando looks at persecuted saints’ special relationship to heaven in the New Testament. This team of first rate scholars offers modern readers a comprehensive overview of this often misunderstood topic—shedding biblical light on the eternal hope of all Christians.

A Concise Dictionary of Theological Terms

Is Hell for Real Or Does Everyone Go to Heaven?

What about those who have never heard? The debate swirls and feelings run deep. What is the fate of the unevangelized? The traditional position--that apart from an explicit faith in Jesus no one is saved--seems to have fallen out of favor with many evangelicals. Here is a passionate but irenic response to the arguments of those who believe that the unevangelized can (or might) be saved apart from knowledge of Jesus Christ. Building on the insights of others, nine scholars introduce readers, even those with little background, to the ongoing discussion. Key questions--Is general revelation sufficient? Are other religions salvific? Do holy pagans exist? Must faith be explicit? Is exclusivism unjust?--are probed and answered from a biblical, theological and historical perspective. The book's positive thrust is summed up by editors Robert Peterson and Christopher Morgan : "God is passionately engaged in gathering people to know, love and worship him from every tribe, language, people and nation. And he has called us to join him on this mission."

A Response to Inclusivism

Faith Comes by Hearing

Christopher W. Morgan and Robert A. Peterson, authors of Christian Theology, assemble definitions to over 300 common theological terms, making this a necessary tool for students, lay leaders, and others who are unfamiliar with specific terminology. A companion to Christian Theology.

The kingdom of God is a very large biblical category indeed. Accordingly, a comprehensive understanding of the kingdom would illuminate many aspects of theology. With this in mind, Bruce Waltke, Robert Yarbrough, Gerald Bray, Clinton Arnold, Gregg Allison, Stephen Nichols, and Anthony Bradley have collaborated to articulate a full view of the kingdom of God across multiple disciplines. One of the most important books on the kingdom since G. E. Ladd, this volume offers a robust theology and is corroborated by the very series in which it stands. Fourth in the noted Theology in Community series, The Kingdom of God establishes the significance of the kingdom from the perspectives of biblical theology, systematic theology, history, pastoral application, missiology, and cultural analysis. Part of the Theology in Community series.

The Kingdom of God

God intends his glory to impact many areas of believers' lives—their gradual transformation "from glory to glory" occurs as they meditate and reflect on the splendor of the Lord. Christopher Morgan and Robert Peterson explore the glory of God in Paul's letters, touching on the Trinity, salvation, the resurrection, the new covenant, the church, eschatology, and the Christian life.

Life Everlasting is about Heaven our final salvation but in looking forward to our participation in the new heavens and new earth, however, we often seek information in the wrong places . . . so what does the Bible reveal?

The Unfolding Story of Heaven

Life Everlasting

A Fresh Look at Its Main Ideas

Getting to Know John's Gospel

This is a fresh restatement of the case for the preservation of the saints, especially valuable in light of the insecurity of much of postmodern life. The book captures the dynamic interplay in the Old Testament between the themes of preservation and apostasy, and teaches readers how to understand the New Testament teaching of Jesus and his apostles.

Preservation and Apostasy

Our Secure Salvation

Would a loving God really send good people to hell? What does the Bible actually teach about hell? How should believing in hell affect us? Here Morgan and Peterson set forth a clear biblical theology of hell, facing the hard realities and avoiding silly stereotypes by conveying what the Bible says about hell with integrity, intelligence, and compassion. They address the major questions people have about this subject and apply what the Bible has to say about it to Christian living.

What Is Hell?
