The King in His Beauty

A Biblical Theology of the Old and New Testaments

By: Thomas R. Schreiner

Narrated by: Bob Souer

Thomas Schreiner, a respected scholar and a trusted voice for many students and pastors, offers a substantial and accessibly written overview of the whole Bible. He traces the storyline of the scriptures from the standpoint of biblical theology, examining the overarching message that is conveyed throughout. Schreiner emphasizes three interrelated and unified themes that stand out in the biblical narrative: God as Lord, human beings as those who are made in God's image, and the land or place in which God's rule is exercised. The goal of God's kingdom is to see the king in his beauty and to be enraptured in his glory.

Thoroughly Christ-centered, God-honoring, and Scripturally-grounded

This book provides a great overview of the whole Bible and all its parts showing how the theme of God as King and the revelation of His beauty are central to all Scripture and run throughout. Scripture is referenced to make each and every point, so much so that at times more of the audio is spent reciting the references than saying the point itself. It is a wonderful companion to persons Bible reading and study and doesn’t float off into personal opinions or unscriptural imaginations. Without twisting or bending the text of Scripture it shows the connecting themes that run from end to end and find there ultimate fulfillment in Jesus as the Messiah, the Christ of God, who will forever perfectly reign over His people in His ineffable beauty!
