Publisher's Description
This book focuses on ten biblical words or concepts: faith, doubt, sin, salvation, the kingdom of God, election and predestination, repentance, death and the afterlife, heaven and hell, and eternal life. Each entry begins with an introduction followed by common misconceptions, clarifications, corrections, and debunking. Then word studies, biblical studies, relevant theologies, insights, and practical implications shed further light on each word. With its balanced and scholarly approach, this guide empowers readers to grasp the nuances of these essential concepts, enhancing their spiritual journeys and encouraging deeper engagement with Scripture. It serves as an indispensable resource for those committed to strengthening their theological foundations and applying these insights to their daily faith walk.

“Ten Biblical Concepts is an answer to prayers of countless lay-Christians seeking to understand the essentials of their faith at an in-depth level. Scholarly publications on Christian doctrines abound. Most lay-Christians seeking to understand their faith at a deeper level, however, are often stymied by abstruse theological terms and discussions. Ten Biblical Words is a compendium on the essentials of Christianity and the Christian faith presented by an eminent professor of economics (retired) whose first love is the Bible and its message for all humanity.”
“From the analytical mind of a career economist comes an excellent guide for a study of biblical theology. Dr. Yang’s review and in-depth examination of familiar, but often misunderstood, scriptural terminology is well designed to help deepen the faith of the Christ follower and form a solid biblical doctrine.”
“For pastors seeking a discipleship resource that lays a solid theological foundation for laypeople, here is a book for you! Dr. Yang, uniquely gifted as a teacher in both church and academic settings, presents the core doctrines of the Christian faith with simplicity and clarity. This resource provides a valuable contribution to the health and life of the church.”
