The Rise of Marcion and the Fall of the Faithful uncovers one of the most damaging moments in early Christian history. Marcion of Sinope stepped into the second century convinced he had discovered a “better gospel,” one free from the God of Israel, the Hebrew Scriptures, and the covenant story that shaped the apostles. His teachings spread fast and loud, pulling entire communities away from the faith once delivered to the saints. Many modern Christians know little about him, yet his fingerprints remain everywhere in today’s doctrine, church culture, and attitudes toward the Old ...

Many depictions of Jesus show him as a character who coolly and calmly floats above the grit and grime of human existence. He doesn't hurt, he doesn't fear, he doesn’t laugh and, most tragically, he doesn’t love very passionately. He seems not to feel at all. But a closer look at the Bible reveals something surprisingly different.

In this exciting book, Paula Fredriksen explains the variety of New Testament images of Jesus by exploring the ways that the new Christian communities interpreted his mission and message in light of the delay of the Kingdom he had preached. A new introduction reviews the most recent scholarship on Jesus and its implications for both history and theology.

The grace of Jesus, free and everlasting, isn't diminished by iniquity but is inclined toward the afflicted. The Savior, who was tempted but never sinned, shows tender affection for sinners. And in the book of John, when Jesus spoke of his coming ascension to heaven, he didn't focus on his own glory; he promised to remain close to believers, interceding for them from heaven.

In this prophetic and deeply stirring work, the author sounds a divine summons to return to the covenant truth that has been hidden for generations. Who Do You Say I Am? exposes how the true Name of the Father, Yahuah, and the revealed Name of the Messiah, Yahusha, were replaced by titles and traditions that concealed covenant identity.

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 ...

Everyone, Christians included, knows what it’s like to feel isolated and alone. We’ve all wondered if anyone really understands us or truly cares about our lives. The good news is that we aren’t alone, and the gospel tells us why: Jesus, the Son of God, came to earth to be forever united with his people - to be one of us. In fact, he has so united himself with us that the Bible says we are literally “in” him. Far from being alone and lost, the Incarnation changes everything for the Christian.
