Book Description
The NIV Application Commentary helps you communicate and apply biblical text effectively in today's context. Faith and action: that inseparable link is a golden thread running through Acts. In 2,000 years, one thing hasn't changed: God's heart for lost people. As long as he acts on their behalf, he will call us to play an integral part in his deeds. Acts lifts us up out of the armchair and spurs us to kingdom action, trusting that God will be with us. Ajith Fernando shares perspectives on the book of Acts that reveal its enduring relevance for our twenty first-century lives. To bring the ancient messages of the Bible into today's context, each passage is treated in three sections: Original Meaning. Concise exegesis to help readers understand the original meaning of the biblical text in its historical, literary, and cultural context. Bridging Contexts. A bridge between the world of the Bible and the world of today, built by discerning what is timeless in the timely pages of the Bible. Contemporary Significance. This section identifies comparable situations to those faced in the Bible and explores relevant application of the biblical messages. The author alerts the readers of problems they may encounter when seeking to apply the passage and helps them think through the issues involved. This unique, award-winning commentary is the ideal resource for today's preachers, teachers, and serious students of the Bible, giving them the tools, ideas, and insights they need to communicate God's Word with the same powerful impact it had when it was first written.

Comentario bíblico con aplicación NVI 2 Pedro y Judas
Author: Douglas J. Moo
Publisher: Vida
ISBN: 0829759646
Category : Religion
Languages : es
Pages : 364
Book Description
Los apóstoles Pedro y Judas no hubieran hecho postmodernistas buenos. Ellos insisten que hay tal cosa como un absoluto, una verdad no negociable, además de error y decepción. Ellos hablan de falsas doctrinas y aquellos que las ensenan como si ellos realmente creen que la eternidad se sostiene en balance y que Dios, lejos de encojar sus hombres como un buen relativista, toma los asuntos de la verdad y la autoridad espiritual muy seriamente. Hoy día, el lenguaje ardiente e impenitente de 2da de Pedro y Judas puede abrir nuestros ojos a verdades espirituales extremas. Como otros muy pocos escritos apostólicos, estas dos cartas nos sacuden para despertarnos a la necesidad de abrazar el verdadero evangelio y trasmitirlo sin distorsionarlo. El mensaje es tan contracultural como es posible, y profundamente oportuno.
