The God and the Gospel of Righteousness.
In this book, David Pawson calls the church back to the very heart of the good news. For many, the 'gospel' is that God loves everybody unconditionally. Yet neither Jesus nor his apostles ever preached like that. They seem to have thought that the world needed to know about his righteousness and his willingness, even his eagerness, to share that with us. That is because he is determined to have a universe in which there is no unrighteousness whatever. Why don't we think that is good news?
Living in Hope.
We all need hope for the future, but what may we really hope for? David Pawson looks at the true hope Jesus gives us in the Gospel according to Matthew, chapters 24 and 25. In this powerful teaching, the author explains the signs we are beginning to see in the world around us, and which we are still to look for, according to Jesus.
Defending Christian Zionism.
Has God brought the Jewish people back to Palestine? How can both Jews and Christians be God's chosen people? How many covenants are there in the Bible? Do all Christian Zionists accept dispensational teaching? Does the God of Israel ever change his promises? These are some of the questions that must be faced in the light of current attacks on Christian Zionism by some evangelical Anglican writers. David Pawson believes that Christians need very clear biblical understanding before making political pronouncements about conflict in the Middle East.
Come with me through Revelation
As a history book the Bible is unique, telling us about the future as well as the past. To become obsessed with either is to evade life's challenges. Both perspectives are needed to live 'over the circumstances' of the present. The book of Revelation focuses on the future and can produce two kinds of Christians — those who keep away from it and those who can't keep away from it! Both need a more balanced view of its significance. After all, it is the only book in the whole Bible to which God has attached a special blessing and an awful curse. It was written for ordinary people under extraordinary pressure. Suffering is the key to its understanding. It is a manual for martyrdom. As history draws to a close, all Christians need its message of warning and encouragement. This is the first in a major new series in which David Pawson invites the reader to Come with me through . . . a book of the Bible.
Israel in the New Testament
Those who believe what the Bible teaches about God's plans and purposes for the people and place of Israel are often accused of giving more time and attention to the Old Testament than the New, and there is some truth in this. Over 80% of the promises and prophecies of the Old Testament have been literally fulfilled. It is a simple matter of faith in God's faithfulness to believe that he means what he says, and will do what he says he will do. This exciting new study reveals that both the people and the place called 'Israel' have a significant role in God's future plans for world redemption. Five books of the New Testament are used here to illustrate this important truth.
