To the Church in Rome: A Commentary on Paul’s Greatest Epistle
Author(s): Douglas Wilson
Price: FREE       (Ends Nov 15)

Romans is more than a collection of proof texts for Reformed theology. It is an exposition of God’s plan to take back the world.
In this new commentary, Douglas Wilson tackles Paul’s meaty letter passage by passage, explaining Paul’s central message: Jesus’s death and resurrection have transformed the world. God has brought an end to the old covenant and ushered in a new covenant, joining Jews and Gentiles in one new people. And if Jesus is Lord, then Caesar is not, and thus the Gospel requires faithful Christians to defy tyrants when they usurp Jesus’s place.

If Romans hasn’t seemed so before, then certainly by the end of this commentary it will appear to you as it did to Protestant theologian Frédéric Godet–as “the cathedral of Christian faith.”

The Cross [Annotated, Updated]: Crucified with Christ, and Christ Alive in Me
Author(s): J.C. Ryle

I am crucified with Christ; nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me, and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. – Galatians 2:20

I want to tell you what perhaps the greatest Christian who ever lived (the Apostle Paul) thought of the cross of Christ. Believe me, the cross is of deepest importance. This is no mere question of controversy; this is not one of those points on which men may agree to differ and feel that differences will not shut them out of heaven. A man must be right on this subject, or he is lost forever. Heaven or hell, happiness or misery, life or death, blessing or cursing in the last day – all hinges on the answer to this question: “What do you think about the cross of Christ?”

Let me show you:
What the apostle Paul did not glory in.
What Paul did glory in.
Why all Christians should think and feel about the cross like Paul.
