Renowned leader Verwer (OM) challenges us to effective service for the Lord and helps us live a life worthy of the calling.
'Jesus asks for a lifetime's commitment to the armies of the Lord: you serve until you die. My prayer for this book is that it should call you to effective service and show you some of the disciple's weapons; that it should teach you how to press on when the going gets tough, and that it should help you to live a life of love - a life worthy of the Lord you serve.' - George Verwer

The scholarly debate focuses on two main issues; the origin of t he 'commentatio mortis' tradition and its development. Dr. Sabou argues that the origin of this terminology is original to Paul; that it was the apostle's own i nsight into the meaning of Christ's death (a death to sin) and his understandi ng of the identity of Christ in his death (as the anointed davidic king) which g uided him to create this metaphor of dying to sin as a way of describing the r elationship of the believer with sin. On the development of this language of dea th, the author argues that this language conveys two aspects â" horror and h ope. The first is discussed in the context of crucifixion in which Paul explains the believer's death to sin by presenting Christ's death as the death of the anointed davidic king who won the victory over sin and death by rising from the dead. Paul affirms that believers are coalesced with what was proclaimed abo ut Christ's death and resurrection, thereby allowing him to assert that the rele asing of the body from the power of sin is a result of crucifixion. This cruc ifixion is the condemnation inflicted on our past lives in the age inaugurate d by Adam's sin and this is such a horrible event that believers have to stay aw ay from sin since sin leads to such punishment. In contrast, hope is presented i n the context of burial. The believers' burial with Christ points to the fac t that they are part of Christ's family and this is accomplished by the overwhel ming action of God by which he pushes us toward the event of Christ's death, an act pictured in baptism. It is this burial with Christ that allows believers t. Seller Inventory # 1145aw
