Union with Christ is an important theological and practical concept
that has received considerable attention in recent years. But not
much consideration has been given to this union and its benefits in
light of Jesus's resurrection and ascension. In this follow-up to
his monumental A New Testament Biblical Theology, G. K. Beale
summarizes and expands on that work with an eye to fleshing out the
theological implications of the resurrection and ascension. Beale
explains that Christ's resurrection and ascension place him as the
beginning of the eschatological fulfillment of the new creational
kingdom. Specifically, Christ is the fulfillment of a cluster of
nineteen Old Testament end-time expectations. These eschatological
realities attributed to Christ are imprinted on believers through
their dynamic union and identification with him. Through careful
exegesis, Beale explores these facets and deliberately draws out
important practical applications for everyday Christian living in
the overlap of the old creation and the new. Students of the New
Testament will benefit from this important contribution to New
Testament theology.
