The Gospel of Grace and Truth: a Theology of Grace from the Gospel of John Michael D Halsey

Publisher Marketing: The Gospel of John is one of the most widely read and cherished books of the Bible. For those seeking to know and grasp the message and theology of John's Gospel, THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH provides a thorough and enlightening introduction. Writing with insight, wit, and clarity, author, professor, and Bible teacher, Michael Halsey, takes the reader on a tour through John's Gospel. After laying the foundation of John's origin, background, narrative structure, style, and features, the theology of John's Gospel is systematically unfolded. This includes chapters devoted to John's teaching on Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, Scripture, Angels, Mankind, the Church, Salvation, and Eschatology. THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH is distinct among books on Johannine theology by recognizing John's theme of grace running throughout his Gospel, as John states in his prologue, "The law came by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ" (John 1:17). THE GOSPEL OF GRACE AND TRUTH provides a valuable resource for any interested reader of John's Gospel, whether seeker, student, or scholar. Dr. Tom Constable, professor emeritus of Bible Exposition at Dallas Theological Seminary, writes: "It is a joy to recommend Michael Halsey's biblical theology of John's Gospel. It will provide help for any student of this portion of God's Word. Warm-hearted and readable, this book will open up new vistas to the thoughtful reader."
