Ephesians: An Expositional Commentary

Binding: Paperback
Page Count: 304
Publisher: Baker
ISBN#: 978 0801066344

Availability: Usually ships the same business day.

Description: According to James Montgomery Boice, Paul's great letter to the Ephesians is "a mini-course in theology, centered on the church." Writing to the church in a city much like modern-day New York, Paul laid out his mature vision of the Christian faith's central elements. The apostle set these fundamental doctrines in the context of the church as the body of Christ.

In this compelling commentary, Boice presents the message of Paul with great depth and clarity. The author proclaims the profound yet simple gospel once delivered to the church in Ephesus and effectively applies it to the modern church.

Writes Boice: "There is no denying that Ephesians is deeply appealing, perhaps precisely because . . . it presents the basic doctrines of Christianity comprehensively, clearly, practically, and winsomely." With this helpful, thoughtful commentary as your guide, you are invited to discover the appeal of Ephesians for yourself

Philippians: An Expositional Commentary

Binding: Paperback
Page Count: 288
Publisher: Baker
ISBN#: 9780801066450
 

Availability: Usually ships the same business day.

Description: Philippians is so simple and at the same time so profound that it speaks profitably to Christians at every level of spiritual understanding, age, and maturity."

As James Montgomery Boice points out, no book in the Bible is so filled with joy as Philippians. Even though Paul faced possible execution for his faith, he managed to remain joyful in the midst of terrible circumstances.

Beyond providing encouragement, Philippians also contains a wealth of great themes. As Boice explains, it covers most of the major doctrines of the Christian faith and is at the same time extremely practical. Topics covered include

  • "The Secret of Spiritual Fruit" (1:9-11)
  • "What Is Christianity?" (1:21)
  • "The Truth about Jesus Christ" (2:6)
  • "What Are Your Goals?" (2:14-16)
  • "Knowing the Living Christ" (3:10-11)
  • "Getting Along with Other Christians" (4:2-5)
  • "The God Who Provides" (4:19)

These expositions will appeal to serious Bible students and interested laypersons. Many study Paul's letter with the goal of coming to know Jesus better. "If you study it," writes Boice, "Philippians will point you to Christ--he is the dominant presence of Philippians, as he is throughout the Word of God."

 

The Epistles of John: An Expositional Commentary

Page Count:
192
Publisher: Baker
ISBN#: 9780801066429
 

Availability: Usually ships the same business day.

Description:The three letters of John found near the end of the New Testament have a tendency to be oversimplified or simply overlooked in the study of the Scriptures. However, though these letters may on the surface seem less applicable to our time because they address heresies and church management issues that seem unique to the early church, careful study reveals just how contemporary these concerns are.

In this volume of James Montgomery Boice's popular commentary series, pastors, Bible students, and laypersons will find analysis of John's timeless messages of righteousness, truth, and love. Boice explains the meaning of the text verse by verse and subject by subject. Clear language and an approachable style make this commentary accessible and enlightening. Within these pages are important lessons on:

  • the essence of Christianity
  • assurance of salvation
  • identification of false teachings
  • proper treatment of God's servants
  • interaction between the church and the world
  • living a righteous life
