  What Did the Cross Achieve?

  A Classic Essay on Penal Substitutionary Atonement from Theologian J. I. Packer
  Penal substitutionary atonement—the belief that Jesus's death on the cross satisfied God's wrath against sin—is central to the Christian faith, but frequently debated. Is it just to punish an innocent person in place of the guilty? How can the temporary death of one substitute for the eternal death of many? Why doesn't the cross grant Christians unlimited permission to sin? 
  In this famous essay, late theologian J. I. Packer analyzes Scripture and the works of early Reformers to defend the truth of Christ's substitutionary suffering and death, the heart of the Christian gospel. Considered one of the most significant short works on penal substitutionary atonement from the 20th century, this careful, concise essay has influenced prominent theologians and is essential reading for students, pastors, and laypeople.
  
  - From Renowned Theologian J. I. Packer: This work was originally delivered as a Tyndale Biblical Theology Lecture
  - Part of the Crossway Short Classics Series: Other titles include The Lord's Work in the Lord's Way and No Little People; The Life of God in the Soul of Man; and Fighting for Holiness

  The Making of the New Testament...

  The story of the making of the New Testament is one in which scrolls bumped across cobbled Roman roads and pitched through rolling Mediterranean seas, finally finding their destinations in stuffy, dimly lit Christian house churches in Corinth or Colossae. There they were read aloud and reread, handled and copied, forwarded and collected, studied and treasured. And eventually they were brought together to make up our New Testament.
  This revised and expanded edition of The Making of the New Testament is a textbook introduction to the origin, collection, copying and canonizing of the New Testament documents. Like shrewd detectives reading subtle whispers of evidence, biblical scholars have studied the trail of clues and pieced together the story of these books. Arthur Patzia tells the story, answering our many questions:
  
  - How were books and documents produced in the first century?
  - What motivated the early Christians to commit teaching and narrative and vision to papyrus?
  - How were the stories and sayings of Jesus circulated, handed down and shaped into Gospels?
  - What do we know about ancient letter writing, secretaries and "copy shops"?
  - Why were four Gospels included instead of just one?
  - How were Paul's letters, sent here and there, gathered into a single collection?
  - Who decided--and by what criteria--which documents would be included in the New Testament?
  Explore these questions and more about these Scriptures whose everyday, gritty story rings true to their extraordinary message: the palpable mystery of the Word made flesh.

But this is our actual life; we only get to do it once. So much is out of our control—but not everything.
