In the book of Exodus, the promises to the patriarchs begin to see
their fulfillment: Yahweh takes a people for himself and dwells
among them. He is not a distant deity, but a God who speaks and
acts to deliver his people from oppression. In this two--volume
commentary, Eugene Carpenter interacts with the Hebrew text to
trace these and other important themes through Exodus. He also
discusses how key theological concepts of Exodus continue
throughout the Bible and offers suggestions for applying the
message of the book to modern-day readers. About the Evangelical
Exegetical Commentary Series: The Evangelical Exegetical Commentary
series incorporates the latest in critical biblical scholarship and
is written from a distinctly evangelical perspective. Each
comprehensive volume combines historical and literary explanations
with insights for understanding the text within the Bible's larger
story and applying it to everyday life.
Synopsis: Whether and in what sense the Son of God might eternally
submit to his Father's will is a question that has ignited a
firestorm of controversy in today's evangelical academy. On one
side stand those who regard the affirmation of any inequality
whatsoever in the Godhead as a revival of ancient subordinationism.
On the other stand persons who consider the Son functionally
subordinate to the Father even within the immanent Trinity, without
respect to the Incarnation, and regard their belief as integral to
historic orthodoxy. Many evangelicals, moreover, view the issue of
subordination within the Trinity as pivotal to contemporary
disputes about the role of women in church, home, and state. If the
relations of the divine persons constitute a paradigm for human
life, persons on all sides of the gender question argue, human
relations ought to reflect either the divine persons' exceptionless
equality or their orderly differentiation of roles. At the same
time, others consider the issues of equality in the Trinity and
gender relations irrelevant to each other and accuse both
complementarians and evangelical feminists of degrading the
doctrine of the Trinity into a partisan weapon. The New Evangelical
Subordinationism? gathers commentary on evangelical debates about
equality and subordination in the Trinity from representatives of
the gamut of perspectives just mentioned. Here, evangelical
theologians, biblical scholars, and church historians of widely
differing theological orientations address themselves to the
panoply of questions raised by these debates. This volume,
unprecedented in the breadth and depth of its coverage of the
controversy over subordination in the Trinity, should become a
standard source for teaching and research on its subject.
Endorsements: "The church should appreciate the work of editors
Jowers and House in gathering up these sixteen different chapters
on whether the Son is subordinate or equal in authority to the
Father. This is a helpful compendium for use in classes of theology
and Bible and even ministry . . . Jowers concludes the book with
helpful reflections on the differing views. All the chapters are
amply summarized in the preface. The New Evangelical
Subordinationism? is a crucial volume for the church at this time."
--Aida Besancon Spencer, Professor of New Testament, Gordon-Conwell
Theological Seminary, South Hamilton, MA "Is the Eternal Son of God
subordinate to the Father in the ontological Trinity? Is Christ
functionally subordinate to his Father during his earthly ministry?
Can the doctrine of the subordination of the Son or of Christ help
us make sense of other, creaturely relationships--such as that
between spouses? These are important and difficult matters about
which many Christians currently disagree. In this symposium Dennis
Jowers and H. Wayne House have collected together representative
papers from different quarters of this debate in order to promote
an irenic and collegial discussion." --Oliver Crisp Professor of
Systematic Theology Fuller Theological Seminary "I commend the
editors for making available in one place this collection of
provocative essays, many written by the chief disputants in a
debate now raging among evangelical theologians . . . Evangelical
theologians, theology students and anyone interested in
contemporary evangelical discussions of the Trinity could profit
greatly from reading these stimulating, vigorously argued,
sometimes maddening and always intelligent essays." --Ronald
Highfield Professor of Religion Seaver College, Pepperdine
University. Author Biography: Dennis W. Jowers is Professor of
Theology and Apologetics at Faith Evangelical College and Seminary.
H. Wayne House is Distinguished Professor of Biblical and
Theological Studies at Faith Evangelical College and Seminary.
Divorce. No one likes it, but it doesn't go away. Even among
Christians, the divorce rate continues to climb. How should
Christians approach this issue? May Christians ever legitimately
divorce? If they divorce legitimately, may they remarry? Not
everyone who appeals to Scripture agrees on how we should
understand what it says about divorce and remarriage. In this
Spectrum Multiview volume, four authors present their distinct
perspectives. Carl Laney argues that the Bible indicates that
marriages are always intended to be permanent, that there is never
a need for divorce and that remarriage is never permissible after
divorce. William Heth contends that while there are legitimate
biblical grounds for divorce, there are no legitimate grounds for
remarriage after divorce. Thomas Edgar defends the position that
Scripture allows for divorce and remarriage in cases of adultery or
desertion. Larry Richards holds that Scripture, while decrying
divorce and the pain it causes, points to a God of grace who will
not condemn those who divorce and remarry. Such a sensitive debate
cannot remain abstract, so a case study accompanies each position,
followed by critical responses from each essayist. The result is a
thoughtful, helpful resource for all who wish to think biblically
about a crucial issue confronting the church. Spectrum Multiview
Books offer a range of viewpoints on contested topics within
Christianity, giving contributors the opportunity to present their
position and also respond to others in this dynamic publishing
format.
In essentials unity. In nonessentials liberty. In all things
charity. Almost daily Christians are bombarded by strange new
teachings about Jesus. The worldwide proliferation of new religious
movements has created confusion in the church. Are there core
beliefs at the heart of the Christian faith? If so, what are they?
And how should Christians relate to those who do not embrace these
beliefs? In down-to-earth language, Doctrine Twisting addresses and
answers these questions. With the firm conviction that God has
sufficiently and finally revealed himself in Christ and through the
Bible, H. Wayne House and Gordon Carle explore in detail the
doctrines of the Trinity, revelation, sin, Christ's divinity, the
atonement, faith and works, the second coming and the afterlife. In
each chapter they outline the biblical basis for the historic
orthodox position and then analyze and refute deviations from these
truths. Doctrine Twisting will help Christians more fully serve God
and minister to others through a better understanding of the
essential doctrines of the Bible and the doctrinal errors of new
religious movements.
This book shows how to use the wisdom in the book of Proverbs for
guidance in finances, marriage, sex, family, religion, education,
vocation, and politics. Wise decision making can be a constant
struggle for Christians, especially since decisions often affect so
many areas of our lives--family, work, church, and home. Don't get
caught up in the worries of tomorrow! Living wisely will bring you
a deeper faith and peace in God.

Many Christians want to witness for their faith, but they are
afraid they will not be able to answer questions that others may
ask of them. First Peter 3:15 reminds believers to always be
prepared to "make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for
the hope that is in you." Norman Geisler and Chad Meister realize
the fear of facing questions about the Christian faith. Their book
Reasons for Faith gives believers grounded biblical apologetics to
help them defend their faith.
By covering the importance of apologetics and then applying
apologetics to popular culture and theological issues, these
authors give all Christians the tools they need to stand firm in
their faith and to be able to share that faith in today's
society.
