The charismatic theology of St. Luke

by Roger Stronstad (2012)

About this book

"What is the meaning of the Holy Spirit's activity in Luke-Acts, and what are its implications for today? Roger Stronstad offers a cogent and thought-provoking study of Luke as a charismatic theologian whose understanding of the Spirit was shaped wholly by his understanding of Jesus and the nature of the early church. Stronstad locates Luke's pneumatology in the historical background of Judaism and views Luke as an independent theologian who makes a unique contribution to the pneumatology of the New Testament. This work challenges traditional Protestants to reexamine the impact of Pentecost and explores the Spirit's role in equipping God's people for the unfinished task of mission. The second edition has been revised and updated throughout and includes a new foreword by Mark Allan Powell"--Publisher description.

Mark Link

Discusses the evidence revealed by modern archaeological discoveries that supports the accuracy of the Old Testament in historical particulars. THESE STONES WILL SHOUT tries to present the Jewish Scriptures in a way that not only remains faithful to them, but in a way, also, that relates them to what people today are doing and thinking. More importantly, it tries to present the Jewish Scriptures in a way that leads to a prayerful reflection of them. The author, Mark Link, says that his method and approach grew out of a classroom teaching situation.

This new edition includes four brand-new sections on the following: the chronology of Paul's letters; Paul's concept of "law" in the context of messianic expectation; the religious and political contexts in which Paul's letters were written; and Jewish understandings of Gentiles and Paul's mission to include them among the elect of God. This long-established textbook is the ideal choice for any student of Paul"--

A Theology of Luke & Acts

Darrell L. Bock

This groundbreaking work by Darrell Bock thoroughly explores the theology of Luke's gospel and the book of Acts. In his writings, Luke records the story of God working through Jesus to usher in a new era of promise and Spirit-enablement so that the people of God can be God's people even in the midst of a hostile world. It is a message the church still needs today. Bock both covers major Lukan themes and sets forth the distinctive contribution of Luke-Acts to the New Testament and the canon of Scripture, providing readers with an in-depth and holistic grasp of Lukan theology in the larger context of the Bible. - Back cover.
