Both the evangelical church and the most developed nations were a result of the Protestant Reformation, a period in history in which God raised up men committed to applying the truths revealed in the Scriptures to all areas of life. The teachings these men emphasized and their implications for daily living resulted in the transformation of the known world. Unfortunately, the Spanish-speaking church has not experienced this reform, and the effects that Christianity had in Europe and the U.S. never reached Latin America. In this book, Dr. Núñez seeks to present the key teachings of the Scriptures that transformed the world, and their implications for the Latin American church. If the church is to be effective in transforming the world around it, it will have to learn from its history and follow its example.
In this book, the glory of God in man's salvation is presented by analyzing the doctrines that have been called "the five solas" of the Reformation, the doctrines that many have summarized in the acronym TULIP, and the exposition of what the gospel is and the power of the gospel. "The five solas" and the doctrines represented by TULIP were intertwined to see how they interact with each other, and the book concludes with the chapter on the power of the gospel as a way for the reader to remember the need not to compromise God's truth.
"The title of the book Teachings That Transformed the World, written by Miguel Núñez, may sound exaggerated, but it is not an exaggeration or hyperbole. The biblical teachings, rediscovered by the Reformers, transformed Europe, and continue to transform every person and culture that embraces them. Thanks to its brevity and enjoyable reading, Teachings That Transformed the World is an excellent exposition of The Five Solas of the Reformation. Therefore, I gladly recommend it to the Spanish-speaking church." Paul David Washer, Author and speaker. Director of HeartCry Missionary Society
"Miguel Núñez has proven to be a man faithful to the Bible, a passionate visionary, culturally wise, and a natural leader. It has been an honor for me to know him and work with him. I pray that thousands of people will open their hearts to his words and that God will use them to rekindle the flames of a great awakening in Latin America." John Piper, Chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary. Founder of Desiring God
"Teachings That Transformed the World addresses, succinctly and edifyingly, some of the most fundamental theological themes arising from the Reformation. Today, these topics are little known and, even sadder, their deep biblical roots are often unknown or misunderstood. It is my desire that this book, from the influential and insightful pen of Pastor Miguel Núñez, will go a long way in bringing the treasures of this heritage to the Spanish-speaking world. Miguel Núñez is a faithful pastor and theologian who loves the Word of God and its doctrine. Núñez's love for the great truths of the Reformation shines through in this book. A healthy church must be a theologically informed church, and Teachings That Transformed the World will help the body of Christ achieve this important goal." D. A. Carson, Author and speaker. Co-founder of The Gospel Coalition (TGC). President Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
