""This will go down as Graeme Goldsworthy's magnum opus. What a gift to the Church it is. The busy pastor and hungry layman will find it a gold mine of biblical thought and exegesis."" --Terry Allen, Pastor, Sandy Beach Baptist Church, New South Wales, Australia ""I have been reading Graeme Goldsworthy for more than twenty-five years. When I first took up my teaching post at Union University, one of my first assigned courses was Biblical Theology. I discovered Goldsworthy's According to Plan and his Gospel and Kingdom, and I have been using Goldsworthy ever since. Now some years later, readers are treated to In These Last Days: The dynamics of biblical revelation. This is a wonderful book and is classic Goldsworthy: drenched in Scripture, sober-minded and Christ-centred. Numerous useful charts and graphs help to communicate and clarify. The scholar and the layperson alike will benefit from this book. Goldsworthy is that rare breed - a biblical theologian who, after many years of writing and teaching, has a clear desire, and ability, to communicate precious material clearly and well. As I sit here and read Goldsworthy's latest, I keep thinking, ""My, he communicates wonderfully. This is so helpful. I need to go back and work through that issue."" This work is an excellent read. I look forward to returning to it again and again."" --Brad Green, Professor of Theological Studies, Theology and Missions, Union University, Jackson, Tennessee, USA ""This book is the wonderful fruit of many years of close and expert reading the Scriptures. In it, Dr Goldsworthy reminds us, as he has done in earlier books, of the riches of the Bible and the value of careful study, especially in revealing the unity of God's word and the power of its narrative. For example, I was blessed and challenged by his exposition of the covenant theme, especially as he reminds us that 'the train of salvation history runs along the tracks of the covenant'. I warmly commend the book to those who desire to have a deeper understanding of God's revelation of himself in his word."" --Peter Jensen, formerly Principal of Moore College and Archbishop of Sydney, Australia ""From 1965 to 2000, I studied and taught the biblical theology of mission(s). As I did so, there became stamped on my mind the approach to Scripture based on God's unfolding history of his saving purposes and redeeming action in Christ. Certain of Goldsworthy's books confirmed, widened and refined my perspective over the years. This book will do that for the studious reader, whether you are already theologically trained or a new believer. Here is a mine rich in veins of gold - ranging from those most easily observed in Scripture to those that are a problem to recognise and extract. Here is a book ideal for teacher as well as student: Graeme always writes in clear, accessible language, as well as with an eye to the questions the reader or student may raise. He appreciates Christian doctrine and systematic theology and their connection with biblical teaching; his approach includes how the three persons of God the Holy Trinity relate to the Bible's teaching; he will instruct you in the right apologetic approach as well as in the principles of interpretation. And so much else. This is a handbook that both the reader and the teacher of Scripture will keep and keep coming back to. If I were to teach doctrine or biblical subjects today, I would assign it as required reading and reference."" --John McIntosh, formerly Associate Professor of Mission(s), Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson, Mississippi, USA
