Renewing a biblical understanding of holiness in the 21st century, Holiness in the Gospels brings alive the vision of holiness found in the life and ministry of Jesus. Its careful examination of the first four books of the New Testament reveals holiness as a reality fully able to engage the challenges and complexities of Christian life in the contemporary world. This scripturally grounded, theologically coherent vision is a genuine message of good news.
Holiness in the Gospels examines:
The quest for holiness in the second Temple period, establishing the backdrop with which to read the Gospels
The humanity of Christ and the work of the Spirit in His life and ministry in the Gospel of Luke
The divinity of Jesus found in the Gospel of John
The journey of Jesus and the understanding of Him as Messiah, Son of God, in the Gospel of Mark
The perfection of Christ and our call to perfection in the Gospel of Matthew
