Richard Belcher explores the Old Testament to define the basic functions of prophets, priests, and kings through an analysis of key texts. He then explains how these offices are fulfilled in Christ, understood in the context of his humiliation and exultation. A nuanced view of Christ's work through these offices points us to how the church, its leaders, and individual believers also fulfill these roles. Includes study questions.
Christians today often neglect the doctrine of God's providence. We tend to think of ourselves as in control of far more than we really are, even though the Scriptures clearly state that all things are upheld by the word of Christ's power. This fresh story by Dr. Belcher is a warm introduction to this important biblical teaching. A Journey in Providence contains reflections from the biblical book of Job. It's another volume in Dr. Richard Belcher's continuing series of theological novels, starting with A Journey in Grace. Tragedy draws Ira to seek God more closely and to understand the Lord's mysterious purposes in life.
The Old Testament is not just a collection of disparate stories, each with its own meaning and moral lessons. Rather, it's one cohesive story, tied together by the good news about Israel's coming Messiah, promised from the beginning. Covering each book in the Old Testament, this volume invites readers to teach the Bible from a Reformed, covenantal, and redemptive-historical perspective. Featuring contributions from twelve respected evangelical scholars, this gospel-centered introduction to the Old Testament will help anyone who teaches or studies Scripture to better see the initial outworking of God's plan to redeem the world through Jesus Christ.
