In that lonely hour, a group of women were watching the crucifixion \"from a distance.\"? In a sense, they are given a stance towards the cross that we can share. It is an event that occurred so long ago, in a world that in many ways seems so foreign to our own. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In this commentary, Peter Bolt looks at why the cross is so prominent in the narrative. He considers the contribution Mark's teaching can make to our understanding of the atonement, and shows how this teaching can inform, correct and enrich our own preaching of the gospel in the contemporary world. He helps us to stand in wonder before the God who has come close to us in the cross of Jesus Christ, and to live in hope of the better things to come.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Inter-Varsity Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":10490459095083,"sku":"9781844740499","price":34.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2773\/2624\/products\/9781844740499-bolt-cross-from-distance-atonement.jpg?v=1600072532"},{"product_id":"9781844741403-nsbt-clear-and-present-word-a-the-clarity-of-scripture-thompson-mark","title":"NSBT Clear and Present Word, A: The Clarity of Scripture","description":"\u003c!-- FXB130220 --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy almost any measure, a bold and confident use of the Bible is a hallmark of Christianity.

Chris Wright believes that there is actually a missional basis for the whole Bible - it is generated by, and is all about, God's mission. In order to understand the Bible - we need to see the 'big picture' of God's mission and how all parts of Scripture fit into its grand narrative. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this comprehensive and accessible study, Chris Wright begins with the Old Testament understanding of who God is, what he has called his people to be and to do, and where the nations belong within God's mission. These themes are followed into the New Testament. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout, Wright emphasises that biblically-defined mission is intrinsically holistic. God's mission is to redeem his whole creation from all that sin and evil have inflicted upon it, and the mission of God's people must reflect the breadth of God's righteous and saving love for all he has made.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Inter-Varsity Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":10490462928939,"sku":"9781844741526","price":74.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2773\/2624\/products\/wright-mission-god-unlocking-bibles-9781844741526.jpg?v=1600072556"},{"product_id":"9781844742530-nsbt-father-son-and-spirit-the-trinity-and-johns-gospel-swain-scott-kostenberger-andreas-j","title":"NSBT Father, Son And Spirit: The Trinity and John's Gospel","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- FXB140530 --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOUT OF PRINT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFrom the patristic period until today, John's Gospel has served as a major source for the church's knowledge, doctrine and worship of the triune God. Among all New Testament documents, the Fourth Gospel provides not only the most raw material for the doctrine of the Trinity, but also the most highly developed patterns of reflection that seek to account in some way for the distinct personhood and divinity of Father, Son and Spirit without compromising the unity of God. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile there have been recent, fine studies on aspects of John's doctrine of God, it is surprising that none summarises and synthesises what John has to say about God as Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
