Available now at Christian Bible Service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA single-volume treatment based on the eschatological center of Paul’s message\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaul’s life, letters, and theology are unified by the theme of the overlapping of two ages—this age and the age to come. With the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the age to come (i e , kingdom of God) broke into this present age but didn’t end it. Where other important doctrines such as justification by faith, reconciliation, and the cross of Christ were key players in Paul’s theology, Marvin Pate compellingly demonstrates that the overarching theme driving the Pauline corpus was indeed Paul’s inaugurated eschatology. In fact, Paul’s apocalyptic framework was only one of a number of other rival eschatologically focused religious perspectives of the day, such as the Imperial Cult, Hellenistic\/syncretistic religion, and the merkabah Judaizers. Paul’s vigorous debates with the churches he served centered on the exclusivity of the gospel of Christ that he preached: the nonnegotiable apocalypse of Jesus the Messiah. Apostle of the Last Days will be welcomed in the classroom as a one-volume treatment of Paul’s life and letters as well as his theology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhy shop with Christian Bible Service?\u003c\/em\u003e We offer quality Christian books and Bibles, fast and reliable delivery, and trusted customer service.
