Synopsis

This study on Proverbs uncovers the biblical message of the Book Proverbs verse by verse in the light of Jesus Christ, like a commentary. Every verse is seen in the light of Christology, from the perspective of Christianity.We cannot pretend to be other than Christians who live on the redemption side of the Cross, while Proverbs was written by King Solomon on the anticipation side of the Cross. Nonetheless, the Christian faith is founded on the eternal consistency of God. God does not change, nor does God's wisdom.The God of Solomon, the author (and editor) of Proverbs, is the same God spoken of in the New Testament. In fact, the God of Solomon is Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. Thus, the present work acknowledges this fact of faith and applies it by reading Proverbs in the light of Jesus Christ. God's wisdom doesn't change.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

With an advanced, formal and diverse, Liberal Arts education, majoring in Philosophy, Ross acquired a broad-based perspective of Scripture, history, logic, emotion, people and values. Following his post-ordination conversion to biblical Christianity, he has labored for Gospel renewal through radio, music, counseling, and writing. As a reformed student of Liberalism, Eastern religions, New Religious Movements and the Church Growth movement, Ross has an unusual perspective on both the need for and the fear of church renewal, revival, restoration, reformation - whatever you prefer to call it. That labor has included more than twenty years of ministry leadership and experience with the unique circumstances involved in contemporary Christian ministry in many different churches and situations. Over many years of reading and personal reflection, sometimes brought about through the crucible of conflict, Ross found himself to be squarely seated in the historic Reformed Christian tradition, in the midst of a people who are not, a people who have lost all sense of historical mooring. As a published author of many books and many articles, Ross further engaged his language and communication skills, and trained himself in graphic and web design, to start a business. During these professional years, Ross continued to preach and write freely, apart from the demands of political correctness in order to produce a less fettered body of literature that addresses and corrects various problems that dog contemporary churches. Too many churches have become stuck in the bog of politically correctness while lusting in their corporate hearts for worldly growth and power. Ross chips away at these barnacles on the hull of Mother Kirk to free the gospel to speak again to her estranged children. He and his wife, Stephanie, live in Marietta, Ohio, and have three sons in college.
