    Life in the Son

    Exploring Participation and Union with Christ in John's Gospel and Letters

    New Studies in Biblical Theology

    by Clive Bowsher
    Series edited by D. A. Carson

    The New Testament writers use spatial language and imagery to portray our relationship with God, speaking both about God or Christ in us and us in them. Believers are also described as possessing and participating in divine qualities such as life and glory. Both aspects are prominent in John's Gospel and letters. However, outside the Pauline writings, union with Christ has hardly ...

    Christianity Today Book Award Winner

    The early church valued the Gospel of Mark for its preservation of the apostolic voice and gospel narrative of Peter.
