Lamb explores the book of Revelation, posing such questions as: What if there were three raptures? Is that scenario sound, and what are its implications?
The Bride and Moral Purity started with a supernatural dream, where a well-known author and prophet was speaking in a conference. He was handing out books, and none of the books was none of his own. Calling me forward, he handed me a book, which was written in Hebrew. As I said, "I can't read Hebrew," it changed and said, "The Bride and Moral Purity." The church is called the body of Christ, but also the bride of Christ. We are taught that this comes automatic and nothing needs to be done on our part. The bride is passionate about her groom. The bride knows her role and duties as a wife. The bride knows that all that is his belongs to her and she does not need to beg for what is rightfully hers by marriage. The bride has the right to use his name and authority.

Describing Jesus as an agent of divine actions, or as one who possesses human agency, is commonplace in christological discussions. Yet these discussions often wade in a shallow understanding of the terms' meanings and the theological implications of such claims. For example, while many theologians who are committed to the definition of Chalcedon consider Jesus one agent, we might ask if this implies that the triune God comprises three agents? Or, if Christ possesses singular agency, how are his divinity and humanity operative in his actions? In response, this work draws from the theology of John Owen and advancements in philosophy of action in order to offer an account of divine and human agency in christological action from within the Reformed tradition. It provides clarity to the christological and trinitarian uses of the language of agent/agency in Christ and attends to the theological (esp. trinitarian) entailments therein. While at first glance there may appear to be internal inconsistencies with accounts that subscribe to classical trinitarianism and Reformed Christological agency, this book argues that Owen helps us recover an understanding of christological agency that is internally coherent and theologically prudent. As such the Reformed tradition can articulate Christological agency in a way that is coherent with the testimony of Scripture, the ecumenical councils, and classical trinitarianism while contributing to contemporary theological discussions. The case not only provides terminological clarity and theological coherence, but also inclines Christians to appreciate the trinitarian love of God in Christ's action and the human sympathy of Christ for his people.

Putting on Christ aims to situate Augustine’s early soteriology and sacramental theology within the context of his personal history and intellectual development. Beginning with an extended analysis of the theology of salvation and sacramental efficacy contained within Augustine’s Confessions (ca. 400), the study then traces the maturation of his views on these matters, beginning with his earliest extant works, the Cassicacum dialogues (ca. 386). The journey entails treating Augustine’s earliest discussions of Christ’s person and his saving work, as well as the believer’s subjective experience of conversion and salvation. As Augustine’s corpus shifts from philosophical dialogues to explicitly apologetic and scriptural-exegetical works, so too does his soteriological lexicon expand to include concepts and terms that will later become his stock-in-trade, such as the virtue of humilitas. And as his roles in the North African Church come to include participation in the presbyterate and the episcopacy, so too does his engagement expand to a wider set of polemical contexts, both anti-Manichaean and anti-Donatist. Putting on Christ tracks these and many other aspects of Augustine’s maturing thought, showing where lines of both continuity and development lie and aiming to uncover their reasons. In doing so, it reveals Augustine to be a thinker and a teacher who continued to hone his understanding of salvation, the very heartbeat of Christian life and thought, as well as its relation to various other aspects of the Christian theological worldview, from Christology and anthropology to sacramental theology and ecclesiology.
In Grace on the Arrow, author Dr. Ty McDonald crafts an inspiring story full of insight and wisdom keys for those in Christian service. She blends her own extraordinary experiences as a woman called to full-time Christian ministry, a brain tumor survivor, elected official, and wife and mother with the story of the prophet Deborah and other notable women of the Bible. She integrates scripture with her story, often addressing controversial issues within the Christian church in a non-confrontational and disarming manner that allows for contemplation. Through the transparent sharing of her struggles serving the church, McDonald offers Christians the weapons for spiritual warfare to help them overcome obstacles common to those in ministry, both male and female. It helps them find the boldness to pursue their own place in ministry and in the world. Grace on the Arrow inspires seasoned and emerging female ministry leaders and men, as well as non-Christians, to pursue their individual call and motivate them to persevere through adversity to actualize the purpose of God in their life. It tells the story of the indomitable human spirit that overcomes against great odds.

The kingdom of God is the called out people of God (Col. 1:1314) from the world of darkness as the spiritual family of Christ. The kingdom of God is bound up in the age of grace and truth and is the fulfillment of Gods promise to Abraham to bless all nations of people. The kingdom of God in prophecy started during the Roman rule (Dan. 2:44) with the Jews at Pentecost in Jerusalem (ca. 33 AD) and then to the Gentile world to include our present age. Jesus reigns as Lord and Christ over His church / the kingdom of God in the twenty-first century and continues to call people of every nation to walk with Him by faith, repentance, and baptism in His name until the consummation of all things and His second return. The Christian Age is the eschatology (Last Day events) of Jesuss reign under the leadership of the Holy Spirit through the preached Word. The salvation of the Gentile nations is the final work of God to restore what was lost in heaven through Satan and his angels (Rev. 12:710). When Jesus appears, his reign ends, and the spiritual family and the church of Christ / kingdom of God will go home.
