Read moreDr Phillips expounds the text in keeping with the apostle's own concerns. It's done in a way that spells out the sheer wonder of the salvation proclaimed in the gospel. In particular, Dr Phillips draws out the idea that what believers experience in time has its roots in what God has decreed from eternity and what Christ has secured in history. Its ultimate horizon is in eternity to come. He homes in on the key doctrines that underpin the apostle's message. They explore the flow of God's unfolding purpose in salvific history. The author is eclectic in the historical and biographical sources he cites and repeatedly brings his readers back to the relevance of Paul's message for Christians today.
