Drawing upon ten years of research experience, the master scholar James D. G. Dunn presents a book on a major issue in the study of Christian origins: what were the attitudes toward Jewish law within earliest Christianity? This volume not only gathers the author's significant contributions to date but also includes new material. Divided into nine parts, it is set in the wider context of a living dialogue and debate. The introduction maps out Dunn's extensive work in Pauline and Markan studies. The final chapter, "The Theology of Galatians," serves as a summary of Dunn's current position on Paul and the law and brings the volume to a convincing conclusion.

The Mayans- Martin Luther- modern doomsday preachers, there's a long list of people who predicted the end of the world and got it wrong. Does Jesus belong on that list? After all, in Matt:24:34 he seems to indicate the end will come within a "generation," yet many generations have passed and the world is still around. Was he mistaken? In What Jesus Really Said About the End of the World, author David Currie examines Christ's end-times prophecies, using the tools of biblical scholarship, the wisdom of the Church Fathers, and Old Testament history and typology, as he presents a fascinating, highly readable interpretation of Jesus' words that harmonizing with Catholic tradition and answering the charge that Christ predicted an end that never came. He rebuts both skeptics and many Evangelical Christians (who resort to extrabiblical theories like the "Rapture") while giving comfort to other Christians who have been confused or embarrassed by this seeming blow to Christ's credibility. Currie also unlocks for you the most important message - not to inspire fearful calculations about the day and hour but to remind us that our own end will surely come, so we must be always ready.
