Although Protestants ought to have a ready answer about faith in Jesus Christ, the reasons explaining that answer run much deeper and relate to our status as God’s image bearers.         Important historical issues inform how we understand the precise relationship of work and grace. Throughout much of the medieval period and into modern Roman Catholicism, many believed that because original righteousness was superadded to our nature, personal righteousness could be restored by grace after the fall, allowing us to merit everlasting life by our own works.  By contrast, the Reformation tradition has held that sin has damaged our nature so thoroughly that we could never merit salvation and must receive everlasting life by grace alone.         Righteous by Design is, on one hand, a thorough historical investigation of medieval and counter–Reformation theology,  exploring sources that have seldomly if at all been treated in Reformed literature. At the same time, it is also a theological case that original righteousness was natural to Adam before the Fall and that Adam  could have merited everlasting life according to the covenant of works. The payoff of this effort in theological retrieval is to underscore the majesty of grace in that sinners are right with God only on the basis of Christ’s  merits. Thus, this book mounts a case for the Protestant law–gospel distinction through the lens of the imago Dei to highlight the sufficiency of Christ and his work.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51033982238993,"sku":"NIN9781527111578","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52110112784657,"sku":"GOR014008356","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52111180235025,"sku":"NGR9781527111578","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1527111571.jpg?v=1751022180"},{"product_id":"created-for-communion-with-god-book-harrison-perkins-9781683597643","title":"Created for Communion with God","description":"God made us to know him  · Encounter God in Genesis 1-2 · See Jesus and the gospel in the creation accounts · Learn how God created us for communion with him  The book of Genesis brings us back to beginnings.

With theological depth and pastoral sensitivity, Perkins shows how repentance is about freedom—Christ freeing His people from sin's enslaving power.  Drawing from Scripture and Reformed tradition, A Penitent People illuminates repentance as both personal posture and communal practice. Through thoughtful examinations of key biblical passages, Perkins demonstrates that genuine repentance flows from faith, propels us toward Christ, and transforms both individuals and churches.  This book challenges common misconceptions, showing that repentance isn't about earning God's favor but experiencing the freedom Christ purchased. Rather than focusing on guilt, Perkins emphasizes how repentance allows believers to enjoy the ‘twofold benefit’ of Christ—justification and progressive sanctification.  Perfect for pastors, students, and everyday Christians seeking to deepen their spiritual life, A Penitent People offers a biblical vision of repentance that liberates rather than burdens—inviting readers to discover the sweet relief of turning from sin to embrace the goodness of God.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52493337395473,"sku":"NGR9781527112551","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52773754732817,"sku":"GOR014615799","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53109824848145,"sku":"NIN9781527112551","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781527112551.jpg?v=1759966701"},{"product_id":"catholicity-and-the-covenant-of-works-book-harrison-perkins-9780197514184","title":"Catholicity and the Covenant of Works","description":"James Ussher (1581-1656), one of the most important religious scholars and Protestant leaders of the seventeenth century, helped shape the Church of Ireland and solidify its national identity. In Catholicity and the Covenant of Works, Harrison Perkins addresses the development of Christian doctrine in the Reformed tradition, paying particular attention to the ways in which Ussher adopted various ideas from the broad Christian tradition to shape his doctrine of the covenant of works, which he utilized to explain how God related to humanity both before and after the fall into sin.   Perkins highlights the ecumenical premises that underscored Reformed doctrine and the major role that Ussher played in codifying this doctrine, while also shedding light on the differing perspectives of the established churches of Ireland and England. Catholicity and the Covenant of Works considers how Ussher developed the doctrine of a covenant between God and Adam that was based on law, and illustrates how he related the covenant of works to the doctrines of predestination, Christology, and salvation.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52516074193169,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52516074258705,"sku":"NLS9780197514184","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780197514184.jpg?v=1760500228"},{"product_id":"take-and-eat-book-harrison-perkins-9798384535010","title":"Take and Eat","description":"In \u003ci\u003eTake and Eat: Recovering the Regular Celebration of the Lord's Supper\u003c\/i\u003e, author Harrison Perkins explains how the Lord's Supper is a gift to the church from Jesus Christ that should be regularly celebrated.
