Theology

“What is the role of the Law in the life of a Christian? For Lutherans, the Book of Concord is definitive, demonstrated by Chemnitz, Gerhard, and Pieper. Following the work of Scaer, Murray, Biermann, etc., Cooper shows that Forde challenged not only the Law (no 3rd use or Law as guide), but the atonement itself. Cooper provides a foundation for evaluating implications of such a position, which are significant for Christian theology and living.”

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“Is there a need for another study guide on Genesis? In a word, yes. And this is the book. Sadly, most studies are not Christ-centered, but rather principle-centered, which becomes nothing more than a new version of legalism. Nancy Guthrie sets a new standard by being truly Christ-centered, starting with Jesus’ fulfillment of the entire Old Testament and maintaining that focus throughout the guide. Having read three of her previous books, and the Christ-centered nature of them, I expected the same top-notch quality. I was not disappointed. The proven format of personal study, teaching chapter, and group discussion highlights Christ as the center of Genesis. Her questions are not merely ‘how-to’ guides, but they bring a fresh perspective and point the reader continually to Christ. Do you want to study or teach Genesis? Then this book is for you. Guthrie has provided a valuable resource of the church.”
