Description
Un reto para la iglesia evangélica de hoy, en particular para las iglesias reformadas, es que demos el lugar debido a la Cena del Señor que nos señala el Señor Jesucristo.
Desde la noche en que Jesús instituyó la Cena del Señor, este sacramento ha jugado un rol central en la fe y la práctica de la Iglesia. Por eso es curioso que tantos creyentes no valoran la Cena del Señor.
Dice el autor: "Los creyentes no la observan tan importante y luego...

A Trinitarian exposition of Christian soteriology
The relation of God and salvation is not primarily a problem to be solved. Rather, it is the blazing core of Christian doctrine, where the triune nature of God and the truth of the gospel come together.
Accordingly, a healthy Christian theology must confess the doctrine of the Trinity and the doctrine of salvation as closely related, mutually illuminating, and strictly ordered. When the two doctrines...

Many ministers instinctively recoil from "washed in the blood" theology, but they hesitate to discuss the subject. This book is useful in showing how the "purchased by the blood" idea is out of step with Jesus, who taught that God reaches the pure in heart without any sacrificial payment. The sacrificial metaphors used by the Apostle Paul have been taken far too literally and turned into an imagined "mechanics" of salvation in which God is "paid off."...

Despite the different views held by mainline Protestant theologians like Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Jacobus Arminus, this...

God's Word creates what he commands
In Justification by the Word, Jack D. Kilcrease reintroduces Martin Luther's key doctrine. Though a linchpin of the Reformation, Luther's view of justification is often misunderstood. For Luther, justification is an expression of God's creative Word. To understand Luther on justification, one must grasp his doctrine of the Word. The same God who declared "let there be light"-and it was so-also declares "your sins...

A simple, uncluttered faith in Christ to the glory of God alone: what Luther discovered in Scripture changed the world. It can change you, too.
As he approached the final decade of his life, Martin Luther observed that the beginning and end of all his theology was simple faith in Christ. This faith in Christ brought peace and joy to his soul, and also turned 1500s Europe upside down through the Reformation.
A World Upside Down is a collection of...
