Through a discussion of Biblical texts, this book presents four
perspectives on the role of works at the final judgment. The final
judgment is the last and final act before God dwells with his
people forever. Scripture makes that clear, but what function do
our actions play in the final assessment of our souls--especially
those of professing Christians? The contributors each state their
case for one of four prominent views on the effect of works at the
end of time: Robert N. Wilkin: Works will determine rewards but not
salvation Thomas R. Schreiner: Works will provide evidence that one
actually has been saved James D. G. Dunn: Works will provide the
criterion by which Christ will determine eternal destiny of his
people Michael P. Barber: Works will merit eternal life This book
allows each contributor to not only present the case for his view,
but also to critique and respond to the critiques of the other
contributors, allowing you to compare their beliefs in an open
forum setting to see where they overlap and where they differ. 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.
