Biblical Creation

Union with Christ is an important theological and practical concept that has received considerable attention in recent years. But not much consideration has been given to this union and its benefits in light of Jesus's resurrection and ascension. In this follow-up to his monumental A New Testament Biblical Theology, G. K. Beale summarizes and expands on that work with an eye to fleshing out the theological implications of the resurrection and ascension.

No story in the Bible is under more assault to its eternal truth than the Creation story found at the very beginning in the book of Genesis.

Genesis 1 Day 1 makes a precise prediction of liquid water on the surface of the Earth when the sun became a star. Recent discoveries in Early Earth science are revealing our planet cooled quicker than originally believed, and that much of the water came from the Earth itself. Evidence may soon ...

The modern world is held captive by a brilliantly designed house of cards. For generations, the secular scientific establishment has presented the theory of evolution, the Big Bang, and the timeline of "deep time" not as theories, but as undeniable, absolute facts. From the television screens of The Cosmos to the halls of academia, humanity is taught that the universe is a godless accident and that biological life crawled out of the mud through a brutal, random lottery of death and time. In The Logic of Creation, David Michael Curtis brings this secular narrative into the cold, silent ...

In the early books of the Old Testament, the mysterious "Angel of the Lord" repeatedly appears—visibly, audibly, even physically—to the Patriarchs, to Moses, to the Prophets. Who is this Angel? Exploring the biblical texts, the testimony of church history, and the insights of Systematic Theology, Matt Foreman and Doug Van Dorn argue that the answer is beyond doubt: the Angel of the Lord is a manifestation of God the Son. Even more, they argue that this Angel appears more often than people realize, because he appears under different titles, including: the Word, the Name, the Glory, the ...

Conventional wisdom teaches that biblical and scientific teachings are incompatible; that each must exist at opposing ends of reality. This idea is preached from church pulpits and taught in learning institutions from the lowest to the highest levels, polarizing people worldwide. Yet, when looked at objectively and with a genuine desire to glean the truth, the two forms of knowledge are found to be not only compatible, but mutually supportive in deep and meaningful ways. Together, they reveal such realities as; The appearance of the universe from absolutely nothing; The great age, inner ...
