Beholding the Triune God (Matthew Y. Emerson and Brandon D. Smith)

Understanding Luke’s Narrative in the Book of Acts

The book of Acts is unlike any other in Scripture; it has no rival in terms of a book spanning so many different lands. Written by a Gentile, it recounts the birth of the church age and the lives of early Christians that serve as lasting examples for the church today. When believers see how these events worked together to fulfill God’s promises, they gain a better understanding of the Trinitarian heart of Acts.

In The Mission of the Triune God, author Patrick Schreiner argues that Luke’s theology stems from the order of his narrative. He shows how the major themes in Acts, including the formation of the church, salvation offered to all flesh, and the prolific spread of the gospel, connect. Through Schreiner’s clear presentation and helpful graphics, readers follow the early church as it grows “all under the plan of God, centered on King Jesus, and empowered by the Spirit.”

Beholding the Triune God:
The Inseparable Work of Father, Son, and Spirit

A Concise Guide to the Work of the Trinity and the Doctrine of Inseparable Operations

It’s crucial that believers understand the work of the Trinity in the world and in their everyday lives.

In this concise introduction to the doctrine of inseparable operations, Matthew Emerson and Brandon Smith assert that the three persons of the Trinity are eternally the one God of Scripture and act inseparably in creation, salvation, and all other acts of God. Addressing complex questions—such as What does it mean that the Father is one with the Son, but is not the same person as the Son?—they present a refreshing, biblical view of the one triune God and his unified work in revelation, providence, creation, salvation, mission, communion, sanctification, and judgment.

  • Concise yet Expansive: Presents a historic, classic Christian view of the doctrine of inseparable operations 
  • Hopeful: Leads readers to deeper wonder and worship through a biblical-theological understanding of the Trinity
  • Accessible Resource for Students and Christian Laypeople: Features clear language and a glossary that defines complex theological terms
