Explore Enduring Truths with a New Edition of J. I. Packer's Timeless Work In a culture that grasps at the latest self-improvement plan or trendy spiritual experiences, J. I. Packer, author of Knowing God, turns our attention to realities far better than anything our self-absorbed society can offer. In Knowing Christianity, Packer lays out his grand panorama of the magnificent landscape we call the Christian faith. This book centers on the bedrock truths of Christianity, aiming to help ordinary believers deepen their devotion into discipleship. Knowing Christianity covers key elements of spiritual life, Christian living, and our ultimate end, laying out the doctrines of God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit; spiritual growth; prayer and worship; fellowship and renewal in the church; citizenship as a Christian; and the afterlife, God's judgment, and Christ's ascension. As the currents of culture shift, Packer's wise insights help believers lay a solid foundation on which to build the Christian life. Though spiritual fads fade from the scene as quickly as they arise, Knowing Christianity explores the lasting, unchanging truth of the God who has been our help in ages past and will be our hope for years to come.

J. I. Packer's Keep in Step with the Spirit focuses on the person and ministry of the Holy Spirit.

He restates the Christ-centeredness of the Spirit's ministry, reaffirms the biblical call to holiness, and even-handily assesses the charismatic movement. Readers wanting to understand this movement, believers interested in the ministry of the Spirit, and fans of J. I. Packer's writings will appreciate this radical call to personal and corporate revival.

Grounded in the Gospel – Building Believers the Old–Fashioned Way
J. I. Packer; Gary A. Parrett
Baker Books, a division of Baker Publishing Group
2010

Historically, the church's ministry of grounding new believers in the essentials of the faith has been known as catechesis--systematic instruction in faith foundations, including what we believe, how we pray and worship, and how we conduct our lives. For most evangelicals today, however, this very idea is an alien concept. Packer and Parrett, concerned for the state of the church, seek to inspire a much needed evangelical course correction. This new book makes the case for a recovery of significant catechesis as a nonnegotiable practice of churches, showing the practice to be complementary to, and of no less value than, Bible study, expository preaching, and other formational ministries, and urging evangelical churches to find room for this biblical ministry for the sake of their spiritual health and vitality.
J. I. Packer (1926-2020), considered one of the most influential evangelicals in North America, was the Board of Governors' Professor of Theology at Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia. His many books include Knowing God and Keep in Step with the Spirit.

J. I. Packer's Classic Resource on EvangelismIf God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize?

In Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God, readers will find: A careful review of the biblical evidence, Packer's explication of how a right understanding of God's sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it, andPowerful illustrations and applications that bring biblical wisdom into everyday life.With over 100,000 copies in print, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God is truly a classic that should be read by every Christian.

Qu es lo que define a la Iglesia de Inglaterra? Tienen los Treinta y nueve Art culos alguna relevancia hoy en d a? El Anglicanisimo, seg n Jim Parker, posee "la m's verdadera, m's sabia y potencialmente la m's rica herencia en toda la Cristiandad con los Treinta y nueve art culos en el centro de su coraz n. Estos art culos captan la esencia y el esp ritu del cristianismo b blico magnificamente bien, y tambi n proporcionan un modelo excelente de como confesar la fe en medio de una cristiandad dividida. En este estudio, Parker tiene como objectivo mostrar como los Art culos del siglo diecis is deben ser vistos en el siglo veinte y uno, y como pueden enriquecer la fe de Anglicanos en general y en particular de Anglicanos evang licos. Parker demuestra por qu los art culos una vez m's deben tener una voz dentro de la Iglesia, no solo como una curiosidad hist rica, sino como una declaraci n con autoridad doctrinal. Roger Beckwith ofrece diecisiete Art culos Complementarios, en un ap ndice que stimula relecci n y discuten teol gicamente asuntos que los ha llevado a un sitio de prominencia desde que los Art culos fueron originalmente compuestos. Este folleto, fu publicado por primera vez hace m's de veinte a os, se mantiene en mucha demanda y tan oportuna como siempre. Ha demostrado ser uno de los estudios m's populares y perdurables publicados por The Latimer House, y es ahora publicado en una segunda edici n, traducida aqui al espa ol. Jim Packer est en la Junta Gobernadores, Categr tico de Teolog a en Regent College, en Vancouver. Roger Beckwith fue bibliotecario y Director de Latimer House, en Oxford Inglaterra durante m's de treinta a os. What defines the Church of England? Are the Thirty-nine Articles of any relevance today?Anglicanism, according to Jim Packer, possesses "the truest, wisest and potentially richest heritage in all Christen dom" with the Thirty-nine Articles at its heart. They catch the substance and spirit of biblical Christianity superbly well, and also provide an excellent model of how to confess the faith in a divided Christendom. In this Latimer Study, Packer aims to show how the sixteenth century Articles should be viewed in the twenty-first century, and how they can enrich the faith of Anglicans in general and of Anglican evangelicals in particular. He demonstrates why the Articles must once again be given a voice within the Church, not merely as an historical curiosity but an authoritative doctrinal statement. A thought-provoking appendix by Roger Beckwith offers seventeen Supplementary Articles, addressing theological issues which have come into prominence since the original Articles were composed.This booklet, first published more than twenty years ago, remains much in demand and as timely as ever. It has proved one of the most popular and enduring Latimer Studies, and is now issued in a second edition, translated here into Spanish. Jim Packer is Board of Governors' Professor of Theology at Regent College, Vancouver. Roger Beckwith was librarian and warden of Latimer House, Oxford for more than thirty years.

In My Place Condemned He Stood

An important anthology that reaffirms the classic doctrine of substitutionary atonement and counters the ongoing attacks against it. If ever there was a time and a need for an enthusiastic reaffirmation of the biblical doctrine of substitutionary atonement, it is now. With this foundational tenet under widespread attack, J. I. Packer and Mark Dever's anthology plays an important role, issuing a clarion call to readers to stand firm in the truth. In My Place Condemned He Stood combines three classic articles by Packer-"The Heart of the Gospel"; his Tyndale Biblical Theology Lecture, "What Did the Cross Achieve"; and his introductory essay to John Owen's The Death of Death in the Death of Christ-with Dever's recent article, "Nothing but the Blood." It also features a foreword by the four principals of Together for the Gospel: Dever, Ligon Duncan, C. J. Mahaney, and Al Mohler. Thoughtful readers looking for a compact classic on this increasingly controversial doctrine need look no farther than this penetrating volume.
