What's Missing from the Evangelical Gospel?

Description

The gospel in its fullness is the hope of the world

The doctrines of imputation—imputed guilt, imputed sin, and imputed righteousness—have historically been a rallying point for evangelical Christian faith, yet they have faded into obscurity in many evangelical circles. In What's Missing from the Evangelical Gospel?, Peter Sammons offers a robust exploration of this threefold doctrine. Weaving together systematic theology, in-depth exegesis, and a defense against distortions and rejections, Sammons presents a sweeping vision for imputation's pivotal place in gospel-centered theology.

Sammons elevates the necessary teaching on the active obedience of Christ in securing believers' salvation and right standing with God. What's Missing from the Evangelical Gospel? lays out the theological and biblical concepts foundational to understanding imputation, such as:

- the imago Dei,
- God's moral law,
- sin imputed to Christ,
- scriptural illustrations of imputation, and
- the doctrine of justification.

Understanding imputation proves essential to understanding how believers are saved and justified by a just and holy God. Sammons shows how grasping imputation leads to fuller awe, love, and trust of God, whose righteousness is imputed to believers through Christ.
