If ever there was a time and a need for an enthusiastic reaffirmation of the biblical doctrine of substitutionary atonement, it is now. With this foundational tenet under widespread attack, J. I. Packer and Mark Dever's anthology plays an important role, issuing a clarion call to readers to stand firm in the truth. *In My Place Condemned He Stood* combines three classic articles by Packer - "The Heart of the Gospel"; his Tyndale Biblical Theology Lecture, "What Did the Cross Achieve"; and his introductory essay to John Owen's "The Death of Death in the Death of Christ" - along with Dever's recent article, "Nothing but the Blood." It also features a foreword by the four principals of Together for the Gospel: Dever, Ligon Duncan, C. J. Mahaney, and Al Mohler. Thoughtful readers looking for a compact classic on this increasingly controversial doctrine need look no farther than this penetrating volume.
"Here is vintage J. I. Packer accompanied by some younger friends. The magisterial but too-little-known essay 'What Did the Cross Achieve?' is itself worth the price of the whole book. And there is much more besides. Here, then, are gospel riches, and *In My Place Condemned He Stood* marks the spot where the buried treasure lies. Start digging!" Sinclair B. Ferguson, Senior Pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, South Carolina
"The essays in this volume by Packer and Dever are some of the most important things I have ever read. If you want to preach in such a way that results in real conversions and changed lives, you should master the approach to thecross laid out in this book." Tim Keller, Senior Pastor, Redeemer Presbyterian Church, New York City
"This book contains some of the finest essays that have ever been written on the death of Christ." David F. Wells, Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
"Every student and pastor should own this volume, for the contents are so precious that they deserve more than one reading." Thomas R. Schreiner, Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
"Writing with the precision of learned theologians and the passion of forgiven sinners, J. I. Packer and Mark Dever explain the meaning of atonement, substitution, and propitiation - not just as words, but as saving benefits we can only receive from a crucified Savior." Philip Graham Ryken, Senior Minister, Tenth Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia

In My Place Condemned He Stood: Celebrating the Glory of the Atonement$31.99
The Bible makes it clear that consistent gospel proclamation must be made so that wandering away from the gospel never happens. That's what the 'first importance' in 1 Corinthians 15:1-8 is all about. And that's what """"In my place condemned He stood - celebrating the glory of the atonement"""" is all about. It joins together three of J. I. Packer's great essays on the gospel, and one essay from Mark Dever: The essays are: 1) The Heart of the Gospel - J. I. Packer; 2) What did the Cross achieve? The logic of Penal Substitution - J. I. Packer; 3) Nothing but the Blood - Mark Dever; and 4) Saved by His Precious Blood: an introduction to John Owen's The Death of Death in the Death of Christ - J. I. Packer. There are so many Packer and Dever gems that could be quoted. But for now, I will stop and rest in the redeeming, reconciling, propitiating and substitutionary work of the Lord Jesus on my behalf. Highly recommended!
