Exploring the inseparable connection between the kingdom of God and the atonement, this book employs a holistic approach that merges insights from both biblical and systematic theology. It illustrates how these two central themes are intricately woven together in Scripture, providing a deeper understanding of their integration in theological discourse.
The key to life is finding out what matters most and building your life around it. And according to Jesus, what matters most? The kingdom of God. Jesus told his followers to 'seek first the kingdom.' Seeking first the kingdom is a vision of following Jesus that shapes and enhances all of life.
In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, pastor Jeremy Treat gives a foundational understanding of what Scripture teaches and what the church confesses about the doctrine of atonement.
