Greidanus, Sidney, 1935-
From chaos to cosmos : creation to new creation / [print] Sidney Greidanus, [edited by Dane C. Ortlund and Miles V. Van Pelt. - Wheaton, Illinois : Crossway, (c)2018. - 213 pages ; 21 cm - Short studies in biblical theology .
The chaos-cosmos theme in Genesis, Exodus, and Joshua -- The chaos-cosmos theme in wisdom, psalms, and prophets -- The chaos-cosmos theme in the New Testament -- Preaching or teaching a series on the chaos-cosmos theme -- Appendix: reading assignments for Bible study groups.
When God created the world, he brought perfect order out of what was "without form and void." But with human rebellion against God leading to God's curse, disorder was introduced into creation--disorder that we still see all around us today. Tracing the chaos to cosmos theme from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22, pastor-scholar Sidney Greidanus reveals how God is restoring his creation through Jesus Christ, who has already begun to shine light into the darkness and will one day return to bring peace, order, and restoration once and for all. With discussion questions at the end of each chapter and a fourteen-session reading plan, this book is ideal for small groups as well as individual study.
