Publisher's Synopsis
In constant dialogue with diverse traditions, and by way of a serious and detailed exegesis, Herman Ridderbos reveals for us the treasures found in Paul's writings. In a manner unsurpassed by other books, this book explores themes such as the nature of sin, justification, reconciliation, and the new life in Christ. The ethical byproducts of living in Christ are fully explored. The doctrines of the Church, baptism, the Lord's Supper, and the end of times are explained in detail. But above all else, Paul's message is interpreted as the explanation of the meaning of the eschatological time of salvation inaugurated by the incarnation, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
