Publisher's Description
The Justification and Kingdom of God series seeks to answer the question: "How can justified Christians in Jesus bear the fruit of faith, reflecting growth in God's image?" To address this, the series helps readers understand what happens to the image-bearers of God in Adam or in Jesus Christ. This reveals the deeper meaning of the gospel and the restoration of God's image, uncovering hidden treasures. Now, the challenge is whether the reader will accept these treasures. The Kingdom of Justification strengthens readers with the truth that eternal life--becoming the children of the living God through Jesus's perfect obedience--includes the restoration of God's image in Jesus. This restoration, achieved through Jesus, defines human wisdom, knowledge, righteousness, holiness, and goodness in Christ as God's children. This book warns against following intellectualism and moralism in liberals, which are driven by the marred image of God due to Adam's sin, as guides for one's thoughts and actions. Justification by God's grace alone is the foundation of true Christian growth in Jesus, the core of a Christian's identity, and the source of gratitude, joy, and peace. This book continually encourages readers, "Don't give up on yourself! You are a child of God!"

“In this careful and helpful study, Dr. Kang traces the path of salvation from the deep roots of faith to the budding fruit of righteousness, and, in doing, explains how God’s plan for humanity goes far beyond our expectations. God desires more than our individual forgiveness; he desires the full expression of the image of God in all humanity.”
“Praise for the first volume: “This volume by Dr. Paul Kang is an achievement born out of his extensive work in theology and thoughtful meditation. While fully acknowledging the richness and fullness of the inscripturated word of God, he emphasizes that this word came to us with consistency and unity within the grand narrative of redemptive history. Additionally, the author deduces that the purpose of this salvation history is the kingdom of God, and he defines the kingdom of God as a kingdom established through the redemptive work of Jesus Christ, based on the word of the covenant between God and man. This book is like a theological feast but not as a buffet menu. Instead, we have before us a full-course meal prepared by a fine chef. Bon appetite!”
