1 Corinthians: A Theological, Pastoral, and Missional Commentary

Michael Gorman

(Eerdmans)

An engaging theological commentary on 1 Corinthians that emphasizes practical applications for Christian life and ministry

Authored by renowned New Testament scholar Michael J. Gorman, this commentary is designed for pastors, students, scholars, and lay people who want a careful exposition of 1 Corinthians that stresses its theological content and considers its spiritual, pastoral, and missional implications for today.

As Gorman leads readers through the biblical text, he explores key Pauline themes found in his previous work on Paul while he interprets 1 Corinthians as a pastoral letter about the marks of the church—a summons to the body of Christ then and now to be one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. Like Gorman’s highly regarded commentary on Romans, this commentary on 1 Corinthians emphasizes the letter’s practical applications and includes questions for reflection and sidebars on important topics, all of which make it an essential resource for teaching and preaching at any level.

Beyond the Salvation Wars: Why Both Protestants and Catholics Must Reimagine How We Are Saved

Matthew Bates

(Brazos Press)

God has provided salvation, but when does it begin? What is required of us? Can we lose it? These and other disputed questions have divided Christians for centuries. Matthew W. Bates has already shown that the gospel is about King Jesus and that faith includes allegiance. In Beyond the Salvation Wars, he unpacks additional truths from the Bible and the early church to describe how salvation happens.

Bates offers a new model, encouraging Protestants and Catholics toward long-term unity. But his proposal contains strong medicine: it doesn’t sugarcoat current Protestant and Catholic errors but diagnoses with precision for the future health of the church.

By using accessible writing and stories, Bates shows what Scripture teaches about baptism, election, regeneration, assurance, and justification. A companion to his previous book, Gospel Allegiance: What Faith in Jesus Misses for Salvation in Christ, this book will appeal to those who want to discover core truths about how we are saved–for their personal journey as well as for final Christian unity. A discussion guide with questions for classes and groups will be available.
