Publisher Description
Christ cured the human condition. Take a grace-centered look at regeneration, the new creation and the new birth. This book explores the universal scope of the cross - if one died for all, then all died! "For God was in Christ reconciling the cosmos to Himself." He has woven humanity into His divinity! Dispel the myth of a dark, schizophrenic god of religion. This book makes a scandalous case that the Father of Jesus Christ is in a good mood.
Need a religious detox? Have a dose of happy theology! Good news to liberate your life. Though we opposed Him as "enemies in our minds," God never set Himself against us as our enemy. Adam was breathed from the very life of God, and it has always been the Creator's intent to restore humanity to the bliss and immortality of its divine origin. In the incarnation, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God included you and absorbed the entire created order into Himself, bringing an end to decay and corruption. Mortality has been swallowed up by immortality.
"Cosmos Reborn may be the most accessible theology book I've seen in my lifetime ... the theology book the average person will read and love. If you've thought theology is hard to understand or even boring, this book is about to rock your world. John Crowder has distilled the thoughts of numerous great historic and contemporary theologians and blended them with what the Spirit has taught him through the Scriptures in a way that has the potential to transform you."
- Dr. Steve McVey, Grace Walk
"If you suspect that we could have possibly underestimated Jesus Christ, then Cosmos Reborn is singing your song. With the insight of the mystics, the way with words of the poets, and the thinking of a real theologian, John Crowder ushers us into the New Testament's vision of Jesus and the One in whom all things, and all peoples have been gathered together forever-even as it was eternally planned by the blessed Trinity."
- Dr. C. Baxter Kruger, The Shack Revisited
Customer Reviews
Stunningly good accessable theology at it’s best!
Stunning! Potent! Profound! Solid! Astounding! Exceptional!
Cosmos Reborn is an extraordinarily outstanding book of profound life-giving theological insight. John Crowder has so wonderfully articulated “good theology that drips with the substance of freedom”, infused with grace that imparts joy to the reader. As well as a rich usage of scripture, John has drawn from a spectrum of writers throughout the ages to give insights that beautifully explain a Trinitarian understanding of the completed work of Christ in ways that are seldom so clearly and comprehensively understood. This is not ‘the gospel’ as you would hear it typically taught in most Sunday services, but rather a far more liberating message consistent with the actual teachings of the early church. This book serves to give you an understanding of God and the real “GOOD NEWS” that is better than you could ever imagine! Christ accomplish far more for us and the entire cosmos than we have either typically had explained to us or understood. Please do yourself a favour and read this book! It is so wonderfully life-giving!
