We often explore individual passages of Scripture without seeing
the whole. A verse may be inspiring and easy to grasp, but the
sweeping context is often difficult and requires persistence. To
understand the breadth of the gospel's message, we need to perceive
the full tapestry of Scripture with its theological themes woven
together. Otherwise, we miss the scope of what Jesus is doing in
the New Testament, gaining mere glimpses of his activity or
teaching but missing their significance. Gary M. Burge aims to
weave this larger tapestry so that each part of the story takes on
richer meaning. Using seven key sentences drawn straight from the
New Testament, Burge demonstrates how the themes of fulfillment,
kingdom, cross, grace, covenant, spirit, and completion set a
theological rhythm for our faith. The seven include "You are the
Messiah, the son of the living God!" "By grace you have been saved,
through faith ... not by works." "You are a chosen people, a royal
priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession." "I saw a new
heaven and a new earth." These sentences are not only individually
inspiring, but they outline the broader pattern of Scripture that
illustrates what God has done-and is bringing to fulfillment-in
Christ. The accessible primers in the Introductions in Seven
Sentences collection act as brief introductions to an academic
field, with simple organization: seven key sentences that give
readers a birds-eye view of an entire discipline.
