In what may be regarded as his magnum opus, Clark Pinnock explores
the vital Christian doctrine of the Holy Spirit. Writing out of
wide learning and deep personal passion, he points the way to
restoring the oft-neglected Spirit to centrality in the life and
witness of the church. Pinnock's book is both catholic-respecting
the beliefs and worship of the historic church-and
evangelical-drawing particularly on the heritage of the
Reformation. Always in sight is the mission of the church, because
"people want to meet the real and living God and will not be
satisfied with a religion that only preaches and moralizes." For
this second edition, theologian Daniel Castelo draws from his
experience using Flame of Love in the classroom to add notes with
helpful commentary and brief reflections on each chapter's main
themes and contributions. While the classic text is preserved, the
book becomes even more accessible to contemporary readers.

The doctrine of hell is one of the most difficult and unsavory
theological topics. In Four Views on Hell, leading biblical
scholars meet this subject head-on, discussing the four primary
views on what the Scriptures say about divine punishment. Is hell
to be understood literally as a place of eternal smoke and flames?
Or are such images simply metaphors for a real but different form
of punishment? Is there such a thing as "conditional immortality,"
in which God annihilates the souls of the wicked rather than
punishing them endlessly? Is there a Purgatory, and if so, how does
it fit into the scope of biblical interpretation? Here, scholars
who affirm an inspired Bible, relevant and authoritative for every
era, present models they consider most faithful to Scripture:
Literal - defended by John F. Walvoord Metaphorical - defended by
William Crockett Conditional - defended by Clark Pinnock
Purgatorial - defended by Zachary Hayes Each view in turn is
presented, respectfully critiqued by the others, and defended. This
evenhanded approach is ideal for comparing views in order to form a
personal conclusion about one of Christianity's toughest doctrines.
The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of
scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both
fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a
one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different
positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.
To read the New Testament is to meet the Old Testament at every
turn. But exactly how do Old Testament texts relate to their New
Testament references and allusions? Moreover, what fruitful
interpretive methods do New Testament texts demonstrate? Leading
biblical scholars Walter Kaiser, Darrel Bock and Peter Enns each
present their answers to questions surrounding the use of the Old
Testament in the New Testament. Contributors address elements such
as Divine and human authorial intent, the context of Old Testament
references, and theological grounds for an interpretive method.
Every author applies his framework to the same three texts so that
readers see each method s practical use. Each contributor also
receives a thorough critique from the other two authors. A one-stop
reference for setting the scene and presenting approaches to the
topic that respect the biblical text, Three Views on the New
Testament Use of Old Testament gives readers the tools they need to
develop their own views on this important subject. The
Counterpoints series provides a forum for comparison and critique
of different views on issues important to Christians. Counterpoints
books address two categories: Church Life and Bible and Theology.

This book is a fresh examination of the authority and reliability
of the Bible for the thoughtful Christian believer today. We live
in a world of emerging ideas stemming largely from a reassessment
of the critical thinking of the Enlightenment and the modern,
secular age.The modern world created "a crisis of the Scripture
principle" by substituting critical reason as the principle for
knowing final truth. The postmodern world looks at things quite
differently, focusing on what it means to live in a world where
there seems to be no rational certainties, no philosophical proofs,
and no final authorities. In the face of these modern and
postmodern challenges, these Evangelical authors offer a fresh,
informed, and balanced view of the role of the Scriptures in
knowing God.

Does God's Sovereignty Make Human Freedom Meaningless?The Grace of
God and the Will of Man brings together an impressive array of
evangelical scholars from many traditions to examine the scope of
God's saving purposes and His manner of working for the salvation
of human beings.Developing the proposition that the dynamic,
personal God of the Bible respects the freedom He has given to the
human race, the essays in this book paint a picture of how God
sensitively works out His plans for individuals and the whole of
history. The writers of this volume don't claim the last word on
this subject, but they make a convincing case for an evangelical
alternative to deterministic theology.Dr. Clark H. Pinnock, general
editor of this volume and the acclaimed book The Openness of God,
is Professor of Theology at McMaster Divinity College in Ontario,
Canada.
