Reviews

"This book is recommended for serious Bible students interested in the doctrine of salvation or New Testament theology. It would be an excellent resource for an adult Sunday school class or sermon series."
*James R. Hamrick, Bible Study Magazine, May/June 2011*

"Reading through Colijn's survey reveals the extraordinary richness of the New Testament view of salvation and the importance of translating this concept into images and metaphors that connect with human experience."
*Donald Senior, Bible Today, March 2011*
