These 3 attributes--or transcendentals--provide a simple framework for understanding reality, including Christ's victory over death and why it matters for your life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this approachable study, New Testament scholar Patrick Schreiner explains the history, apologetics, theology, and ethics of the resurrection. First, he examines moral arguments and the death-to-life cycles in nature that point to Christ's resurrection. Next, Schreiner explores the theology of the empty tomb, including the new life in heaven that awaits believers. Finally, he reflects on the beautiful ways Jesus's death validates, personalizes, and ultimately ends your suffering. You will be inspired to pursue resurrection in your own life, dying to sin to experience abundant renewal in Christ.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis short, engaging book is perfect for outreach and discipleship.

By the beginning of the twentieth century, materialism had become the dominant theory of the time. And yet, with unexpected and astonishing force, the pendulum of science has swung back in the other direction, owing to a rapid succession of discoveries: the theory of relativity; quantum mechanics; the Big Bang; the theories of expansion, heat death, and fine-tuning of the universe. This newly acquired knowledge has upended the certainties of the twentieth century collective consciousness. Once the only acceptable theory, materialism is increasingly considered an irrational belief.\u003cbr\u003eThe authors of this highly readable book retrace the fascinating history of these scientific breakthroughs and offer a rigorous overview of the new proof of the existence of God. God: the Science and the Evidence is an invitation to reflect and debate the place of God in science.","brand":"Koorong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51574772662559,"sku":"9789998782402","price":48.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8981\/8143\/files\/9789998782402_3D.png?v=1780436533"},{"product_id":"the-lord-of-psalm-23-jesus-our-shepherd-companion-and-host-with-study-questions-670471","title":"The Lord of Psalm 23: Jesus Our Shepherd, Companion, and Host (with Study Questions)","description":"Expository Study of Psalm 23 Reveals the Beauty and Deep Theological Meaning Behind a Familiar Part of Scripture\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePsalm 23 is one of the most recognizable passages in the whole Bible.
