Description

Exploring personal transformation in the Christian life is a fundamental question. J.G. Millar addresses this issue by examining the nature of gospel-shaped change, highlighting the dangers of overpromising or underestimating its potential.

The central aspect of his study focuses on 'life in the middle' - the period between becoming a Christian and the ultimate transformation that will occur when we are raised with Christ. Millar delves into the character studies of major Old Testament figures, revealing their moral decline and innate sinfulness throughout their lives. He argues that this problem is resolved by a new covenant that promises both individual and corporate transformation in the power of the Spirit.

Millar develops an integrated biblical theology of transformation, drawing on the contributions of key theologians such as Augustine, Aquinas, Calvin, Edwards, and Owen. The result is a careful synthesis that sheds light on this complex process, demonstrating that transformation is real, deep-rooted, and far-reaching.
