What happens after you realize and accept that Jesus has indeed chosen
you? Once we belong to Him, we’re not only given a new identity; we’re
ushered into a new reality – one that is sure, powerful and
life-changing.
Blessed Are the Chosen is an 8-lesson interactive Bible study for
individuals or small groups based on season 2 of the groundbreaking
television show, The Chosen. This study brings both the Old and New
Testaments to life in an approachable and conversational way. It works
in tandem with each episode of the show and includes:
• A deeper look at God’s character, power and promises using the
framework of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount.
• Script excerpts, quotes and illustrations from each episode.
• Scripture to provide lesson context.
• Pictures and bios of characters for increased connection.
• Conversational features to invite Bible knowledge.
• Guiding questions for group or individual discussion or reflection.
Throughout the Bible we read of people being chosen to serve God, but
what does it actually mean to be chosen? Being chosen by Jesus has
beautiful and far-reaching implications – although it says even more
about the Chooser than the one being chosen. We are loved because He is
love. We are saved because He is merciful. We belong to the family of
God because Jesus invites us, making the Bible and all its promises as
true for us today as it was for God’s chosen people.
With over 300 000 copies sold, What Does It Mean to Be Chosen? is the
official 8-week companion Bible study to season 1 of The Chosen, the
groundbreaking television series about the life of Jesus. It parallels
each episode to connect you to the Bible in a brand-new way and offers:
• A deeper look at Isaiah 43 and its fulfillment in Jesus and the lives
of His followers.
• Script excerpts, quotes and illustrations from the television series.
• Guiding questions for groups or individuals.
This reader’s edition of The Greek New Testament, Produced at

God Never Changes Or does he? God has been getting a makeover of
late, a 'reinvention' that has incited debate and troubled scholars
and laypeople alike. Modern theological sectors as diverse as
radical feminism and the new open theism movement are attacking the
classical Christian view of God and vigorously promoting their own
images of Divinity. God Under Fire refutes the claim that major
attributes of the God of historic Christianity are false and
outdated. This book responds to some increasingly popular alternate
theologies and the ways in which they cast classical Christian
theism in a negative light. Featuring an impressive cast of
world-class biblical scholars, philosophers, and apologists, God
Under Fire begins by addressing the question, Should the God of
Historic Christianity Be Replaced? From there, it explores issues
as old as time and as new as the inquest into the openness of God.
How, for instance, does God risk, relate, emote, and change? Does
he do these things, and if so, why? These and other questions are
investigated with clarity, bringing serious scholarship into
popular reach. Above all, this collection of essays focuses on the
nature of God as presented in the Scriptures and as Christians have
believed for centuries. God Under Fire builds a solid and appealing
case for the God of classical Christian theism, who in recent
years---as through the centuries---has been the God under fire."
The end of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first
centuries have involved much discussion on overhauling and refining
a scholarly understanding of the verbal system for first-century
Greek. These discussions have included advances in verbal aspect
theory and other linguistic approaches to describing the
grammatical phenomena of ancient languages. This volume seeks to
apply some of that learning to the narrow realm of how prohibitions
were constructed in the first-century Greek of the New Testament.
Part 1 "The Great Prohibition Debate" seeks to demonstrate that
verbal aspect theory has a better explanation than traditional
Aktionsart theory for authorial choices between the negated present
imperative and the negated aorist subjunctive in expressing
prohibitions in the Greek New Testament. Part 2 "All the
Prohibitions in the Greek NT" continues to examine prohibitions,
but is more of an exercise in functional linguistics. That is,
rather than apply verbal aspect theory to the grammar of
prohibition constructions, Part 2 seeks only to survey the
(initially surprising) wide variety of ways prohibitions can be
expressed in koine Greek: more than a dozen different
constructions. To do this, the NT prohibitions are grouped in their
varying grammatical-syntactical and/or pragmatic constructions, all
of which function - in varying degrees - in a prohibitory fashion.
This taxonomy may prove to be the beginnings of further
investigations into how biblical Greek communicates commands.
