NIV Application Commentary: Jonah, Nahum, Habakkuk & Zephaniah

DESCRIPTION

The prophets Jonah, Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah all spoke to a nation that had to deal with violent enemies. While Jonah took his message to the city of Nineveh, the others faced the crisis of a new power: Babylon. Eventually, the Babylonian Empire destroyed Nineveh as prophesied by Nahum, and later destroyed Jerusalem as prophesied by Habakkuk and Zephaniah. Although these four prophets come from the distant past, they still call God’s people to consider what it means to be faithful when violent enemies press upon them. They offer God’s hope and resources in the midst of personal and societal crises.

In Jonah, Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah [NIVAC] James Bruckner draws these lessons out of the ancient context and then masterfully applies them to our own modern context wherein it seems that crisis is the state of normality. Rejecting the belief that God does not teach us through difficult times, Bruckner shows how God works in our lives at precisely the moment we think all is lost.

NIV Application Commentary: Joel, Obadiah & Malachi

DESCRIPTION

These three short prophetic books of the Old Testament each contain a dual message. On one hand are messages of impending judgmentfor all peoples on the Day of the Lord, for an enemy of Israel, and for Israel herself. On the other hand are messages of great hopeof the pouring out of God’s Placing judgment and hope together in such a manner may seem paradoxical to a contemporary mindset. But the complete message of these prophets gives a fuller picture of Godwho despises and rightly judges sin and rebellion, but who also lovingly invites people to return to him so that he might bestow his wonderful grace and blessings. It is a message no less timely today than when these books were first written, and David W. Baker skillfully bridges the centuries in helping believers today understand and apply it.

NIV Application Commentary: 2 Peter & Jude

DESCRIPTION

NIV Application Commentary: 1 Peter

DESCRIPTION

Scot McKnight has emerged as one of the most popular and influential NT scholars of the last decade. His popular blog (Jesus Creed) attracts thousands of daily readers, and his books are perennial bestsellers that prove to be informative, edifying, and challenging.

1 Peter [NIVAC] is no exception to this rule. McKnight does an excellent job of illuminating the rich and troubled circumstances of the original reader’s while also skillfully Peter’s extensive moral exhortations in light of the original recipients’ context. McKnight, who also accepts the so-called “new perspective” on Paul, no doubt reads 1 Peter through similar lenses and equally draws the implications for this non-pauline book. A Master of Application, readers are in store for a rich reward of wisdom and practical extrapolations from the text.

It explains not only what the Bible means but also how it can speak powerfully today.

NIV Application Commentary: Ephesians

DESCRIPTION

From the Back Cover

Paul’s letter to the Ephesians shines with the brilliant reality of what being a Christian really means. We are far more than forgiven–we have been changed. Not just the way we live, but the very source and nature of our lives are different. In Christ, we are new creations, righteous, fit for fellowship with God, and even now seated “with him in the heavenly realms” (Eph. 2:6).
But what practical implications does this radical transformation have for us? In what ways does living in God’s grace affect our daily conduct? In Ephesians, Paul connects our identity in Christ to our lifestyles. We are God’s workmanship, he says; let us live out who we are. Whether the setting is the home, the church, or the marketplace, our lives ought to reflect our union with Christ.
Exploring the inks between the Bible and our own times, Klyne Snodgrass shares perspectives on the book of Ephesians that reveal its enduring relevance for our twenty-first-century lives.

NIV Application Commentary: Galatians

DESCRIPTION

From the Back Cover

Salvation by grace: we preach it, but do we live it? The reality is that too many Christians begin well but quickly gravitate toward jumping through religious hoops. What originated as simple, joyous, and liberating faith in Jesus somehow ends up in an exhausting attempt to “get it right.” If Paul the apostle were to visit our churches today, chances are he would write the book of Galatians all over again.
In Galatians, Paul reminds us of the total sufficiency of Jesus in securing our salvation, and of the leadership of the Holy Spirit for living it out. To add to that pure, unencumbered gospel is in fact to subtract from it and nullify the life-giving, transforming power of grace. This is the message of Galatians. Calling us back to the simplicity of Christ, Galatians is as critically important for us today as it was when Paul first penned it.
Exploring the links between the Bible and our own times, Scot McKnight shares perspectives on the letter to the Galatians that reveal its enduring relevance for our twenty-first-century lives.

Going Deeper with New Testament Greek

(2 customer reviews)
DESCRIPTION

Updated to 2020 Version!

In his final letter to his foremost disciple, the apostle Paul made this solemn appeal: “Be diligent to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who doesn’t need to be ashamed, correctly teaching the word of truth” (2 Tim 2:15). The message is clear: Timothy (and, by implication, all teachers of God’s Word) must work hard to arrive at a correct interpretation of any given passage of Scripture. Such careful attention to correctly interpreting Scripture was to set Timothy apart from false teachers such as Hymenaeus and Philetus (2 Tim 2:17). Since the NT was written in Greek, and since inerrancy and inspiration extend specifically to the Scriptures in the autographs (original manuscripts), a good working knowledge of NT Greek greatly enhances one’s interpretive skill.
In this book, we hope to stir in you a passion, and to provide you with the necessary tools, to “go deeper” in your pursuit of your mastery of NT Greek. You’ve taken a course or two in elementary Greek, or perhaps taught yourself by using some of the many helpful tools that are available. You’ve memorized the most common Greek vocabulary, learned the basic forms of the Greek noun, adjective, and verb, studied foundational principles of Greek syntax, and tried your hand at translating NT texts of increasing difficulty. But you know that you’ve got more to learn. We want to help you take your knowledge of NT Greek to the next level, not as an end in itself but as a means to correctly interpreting and teaching God’s Word. So are you ready? Let us take a moment to get oriented, and then we’ll be off and running in our quest to “go deeper” with NT Greek.

THGNT Interlinear

  • Crossway ESVified edition of The Greek New Testament Produced at Tyndale House Cambridge

The Greek New Testament is priceless in its value as it is how God has given us his revelation of the gospel and of Jesus Christ. While a few trusted Greek texts are in print, significant advances have been made in Greek translation studies of the New Testament since a standard text was adopted by academics in 1975. The Greek New Testament, Produced at Tyndale House, Cambridge has been created under the oversight of editors Dr. Dirk Jongkind (St. Edmund’s College, University of Cambridge) and Dr. Peter Williams (Tyndale House, Cambridge). Together with their team, they have taken a rigorously philological approach to reevaluating the standard text—reexamining spelling and paragraph decisions as well as allowing more recent discoveries related to scribal habits to inform editorial decisions.

THGNT Reverse Interlinear

  • Crossway ESVified edition of The Greek New Testament Produced at Tyndale House Cambridge

The Greek New Testament is priceless in its value as it is how God has given us his revelation of the gospel and of Jesus Christ. While a few trusted Greek texts are in print, significant advances have been made in Greek translation studies of the New Testament since a standard text was adopted by academics in 1975. The Greek New Testament, Produced at Tyndale House, Cambridge has been created under the oversight of editors Dr. Dirk Jongkind (St. Edmund’s College, University of Cambridge) and Dr. Peter Williams (Tyndale House, Cambridge). Together with their team, they have taken a rigorously philological approach to reevaluating the standard text—reexamining spelling and paragraph decisions as well as allowing more recent discoveries related to scribal habits to inform editorial decisions. Ideal for students, scholars, and pastors alike, and published to coincide with the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, The Greek New Testament, Produced at Tyndale House, Cambridge is a groundbreaking contribution to biblical scholarship.

Myths and Mistakes in New Testament Textual Criticism

DESCRIPTION

Since the unexpected popularity of Bart Ehrman’s bestselling Misquoting Jesus, textual criticism has become a staple of Christian apologetics.

Ehrman’s skepticism about recovering the original text of the New Testament does deserve a response. However, this renewed apologetic interest in textual criticism has created fresh problems for evangelicals. An unfortunate proliferation of myths, mistakes, and misinformation has arisen about this technical area of biblical studies.

In this volume Elijah Hixson and Peter Gurry, along with a team of New Testament textual critics, offer up-to-date, accurate information on the history and current state of the New Testament text that will serve apologists and Christian students even as it offers a self-corrective to evangelical excesses.

Equipping the Saints – Discipleship Manual

Description

Russell (“Rusty”) L. Penney B.A., M.A„ Th.D. serves as Senior Pastor at Prairie Valley Baptist Church in Whitney, Texas, He is husband of Joann Squires Penney and father of Joseph, Hannah and Micah. Rusty and Joann have served the Lord as missionaries in Sophia, Bulgaria and Santa Cruz. Bolivia. In Santa Cruz, Rusty served as professor of theology, head of postgraduate studies, and later as President for 7 years at Hebron Theological Seminary. Rusty is the general editor of Overcoming the World Missions Crisis (Kregel, 2001), and contributor to six other books including the silver medallion award winner Dictionary of Premillennial Theology (Kregel, 1996).

“There is no greater need in the church in the United States today than the maturing of believers or, what the Bible calls, ‘making disciples’ (Matt. 28:18-20). Like a newborn babe, true spiritual growth is accompanied by a longing for spiritual food. This volume was written with that great need in mind. Equipping the Saints is ‘food for the soul’. If we lead someone to Christ, it is imperative to help them grow. The Christian life is properly seen as the process of God conforming us to the moral image of Christ (Rom. 8:28-30), and bringing us to ‘share in His holiness’ (Heb. 12:10). This volume gives the believer a foundational understanding of the Christian life. It is time for the church to abandon its unbiblical and debilitating church growth, strategies and return to what God called the church to do; making disciples by equipping the saints (Eph. 4:11-12).”

Dispensationalism Tomorrow and Beyond

Description

“This book in honor of Dr. Charles Ryrie was written by scholars who hold to the same basic view of Dispensationalism for which he is noted. In their chapters they address subjects related directly or indirectly to that system of theology. They exhibit a confirmed commitment to the authority, power, sufficiency, original languages, and correct interpretation of the Scriptures. Their work reflects careful exegesis of pertinent Biblical passages and significant interaction with writings of scholars who disagree with the Dispensational view of the Bible. Readers will be introduced to subjects not normally addressed by Dispensational authors….”
