New Testaments; Christian leaders & leadership

"The purpose of this book is to communicate as clearly as possible Paul's gospel of God in its depth, from what I have learned over five decades of studying Paul's letters and theology. But, regardless of how much I have gained from teachers past and present, the bottom line is that """"the things freely given us by God"""" in Paul's gospel can only be known by the Spirit of God, through comparing Paul's Spirit-taught words with Spirit-taught words (1 Cor 2:12-13). Luther's grasp of how justification in Christ--and thus faith in Christ--is central, is verified by what Paul says in Rom 1:16-17; that in the gospel, God's saving righteousness is revealed, from Christ's faith to our faith. The message of this book can be summed up as follows: The life of the person in Christ is to be one of trust in Christ for righteousness before God, and, through that faith, obedience to Christ as Lord. This life is possible because Christ believers have died with Christ to the lordship of the Sin and the law, and are alive to God in Christ Jesus--owned by him as Lord, being one spirit with him."

"Eric Roessing has a master's degree from the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago. He received a Roman Catholic education, consisting of a works-righteousness theology, which he, having ASD, absorbed. After he came to faith in Christ, in order to ""stand"" (Eph 6:13), he needed to know God's gospel, wherein God justifies sinners through faith in Christ alone. Eric (Rick) lives with his wife, Jane, in Michigan. They have two sons and five grandchildren."

Reviews for The Grace of Christ, Third Edition

"""This treatment of a key biblical doctrine by Eric Roessing, newly revised, gives a thought-provoking, lively analysis of Romans 1-11 and several other Pauline texts. It will be of interest to pastors and theologically oriented laity, especially those who appreciate the writings of Martin Luther and D. M. Lloyd-Jones. The Grace of Christ will richly repay careful reading."" --Robert E. Van Voorst, professor emeritus of New Testament, Western Theological Seminary"
