Theology of the English Reformers, Revised and Expanded Edition
"A superb collection and summary of our sixteenth-century Anglican Reformers' thoughts on key points of Christian theology." --John H. Rodgers Jr. Dean and President Emeritus Trinity Episcopal School for Ministry Ambridge Pennsylvania
Lefèvre
Though ranked with Erasmus as one of the leading scholars of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, Jacques Lefevre d'Etaples has not received the scholarly attention due to a man of his intellectual stature and spiritual influence. Author has drawn on the original works and letters of Lefevre and his contemporaries in the ecclesiastical renewal movements in France and his influence on the thought of the Reformers. Hughes traces the transition from Lefevre's early career in philosophical and speculative studies to his single-minded concentration on scriptural exegesis and translation of the Bible into French. He presents in great detail the progression of Lefevre's thought, which blazed the trail that led from the Renaissance to the Reformation" -- From back cover.
The Register of the Company of Pastors of Geneva in the Time of Calvin

Scripture and Truth

Rethinking Hell
Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.
Being Human in God's World
A Biblical Perspective on What It Means to Be Human This major work by a widely respected Old Testament scholar and theologian unpacks a biblical perspective on fundamental questions of what it means to be human. J. Gordon McConville explores how a biblical view of humanity provides a foundation for Christian reflection on ethics, economics, politics, and church life and practice. The book shows that the Old Testament's view of humanity as "earthed" and "embodied" plays an essential part in a well-rounded Christian theology and spirituality, and applies the theological concept of the "image of God" to all areas of human existence.

Prepared by some of the world's leading scholars, the series provides an exposition of the New Testament books that is thorough and fully abreast of modern scholarship yet faithful to the Scriptures as the infallible Word of God.
