Offering a "big picture" of divine revelation, Graeme Goldsworthy's
In These Last Days: The Dynamics of Biblical Revelation
underscores the importance of the historical nature of divine revelation. God is not static; he acts in history, which is why not all parts of Scripture relate in exactly the same way to other portions of Scripture. Acknowledging these historical acts, Goldsworthy invites readers to a more careful reading and application of Scripture. Unless we read texts in terms of their location in the progress of divine revelation, Goldsworthy contends that we will inevitably misunderstand and misapply those biblical texts.
The book comprises four sections:
The Word of God
The Being of God
The Doing of God
The People of God
In an age of growing biblical illiteracy,
In These Last Days
provides basic biblical and theological literacy for how the church can rightly divide and apply the Word for its daily lives.
