God Is Love: A Biblical and Systematic Theology
While there is no substitute for personal, faithful, and careful Bible reading and prayer, the Bible€s vast size and diversity can make distilling its truth a daunting task. Thus most Christians benefit from supplemental resources to help learn and apply what Scripture teaches.
Renowned theologian, Gerald Bray has produced just such a resource in his new systematic theology. Though packed with robust content, he writes about this volume: €œthe aim . . . is to reach those who would not normally find systematic theology appealing or even comprehensible.€Â
This volume is unique from others in that Bray traces the common theme of God€s love through the Bible categorically€"from God€s love for himself and his creation to the cross as the ultimate expression of God€s love, among other categories. The centrality of God€s love in Bray€s theology reflects a deep conviction that the Bible shows us God for who he really is. This volume will be of interest to Christians seeking to grow in their faith.
