Sin! Against God and nature

Thomas McCall invites us to join him as he thoughtfully guides us through a thorough, careful, and insightful exploration of the doctrine of sin from biblical, historical, philosophical, theological, pastoral, and practical perspectives.

With extensive engagement with the biblical text and with other thinkers throughout the centuries, this first-rate theologian grapples with the personal, social, private, and public aspects of this often-neglected area of theology. Offering careful exegesis of central biblical texts on this topic, our author serves as a judicious and astute guide through the issues of original sin, guilt, corruption, and the multi-dimensions of sin. In so doing, he avoids the trap of popular psychology, while at the same time, with pastoral sensitivity, leading readers to a deeper and more biblical understanding of the heinousness of sin, idolatry, corruption, transgression, and depravity.

He helps all of us gain a more theologically informed understanding of humanity's problems and our desperate need for rescue, redemption, forgiveness, and salvation. Sin! Against God and Nature is a most valuable work that I am pleased to commend.”—David S. Dockery, President of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
