Description
King revolutionises our understanding of the nature and scope of salvation in Scripture and our lives today. Drawing on his trademark attentiveness to the biblical text and the world of both Old and New Testaments, King helps us untangle some of the Apostle Paul's most confounding thought: a portion of his famous letter to the Romans, specifically chapters 9-11. Drawing on Hebrew eschatological and apocalyptic influences, the teachings of Jesus, and a unique understanding of the epistle writer's place in history, King demonstrates that this portion of Scripture -- often used in religious history to exclude Jewish people from the table of blessing -- means the exact opposite of what it's commonly taken to mean, and this is good news for us all. Irrevocable is a ground-breaking work of canonical theology, with an attention to biblical detail that impresses the studious and a heart toward the grandeur of Paul's vision of God that bolsters the compassionate. If you are tired of old religious polarities that are increasingly irrelevant in a pluralist, globally-connected world, Irrevocable is your invitation to discover a paradigm-shifting vision of life with God, each other, and the entire universe.
