Message of the General Epistles in the History of Redemption
Brandon D. Crowe
This volume considers the theological richness (indicative) and practical relevance (imperative) of the New Testament General Epistles–James, 1-2 Peter, 1-3 John, and Jude–within a redemptive-historical framework. Although not the most familiar portion of the New Testament, these letters have much to say about the call to discipleship in the twenty-first century. Part One ( Scallywags ) focuses on 1 Peter. Here we see that Christ has accomplished salvation and that his life provides the pattern for faithful living in the face of worldly opposition. In Part Two ( Scoffers ) the truth of 2 Peter and Jude is set in contrast to the destructive doctrines of scoffing false teachers. Part Three ( Schisms ) reflects on the challenges of the Johannine letters that address who belongs to God’s family. Finally, Part Four ( Wisdom ) looks at the practical teaching of James in light of the teaching of Jesus.
