This book is about the best news the world has ever heard - the message of salvation.

The Bible itself is the word of salvation, the message of grace that glorifies God by persuading sinners to believe in Jesus Christ.

Philip Ryken opens up God's saving message using the Bible's stories, sermons, letters and poems to explain its own theme of salvation. He has chosen nineteen biblical passages that take us deeper into the biblical teaching on salvation. The centerpiece of each passage has a familiar ring: election, deliverance, redemption, expiation, reconciliation, regeneration, justification, adoption, sanctification and glorification.

A passion for the grandness of God's work shows through as Philip Ryken illuminates the contours of the message of salvation.
Philip Graham Ryken (PhD, University of Oxford) is the 8th president of Wheaton College and, prior to that, served as senior minister at Philadelphia's historic Tenth Presbyterian Church. He has written several books for Crossway, and has lectured and taught at universities and seminaries worldwide. Dr. Ryken and his wife, Lisa, live in Wheaton and have five children.

"Philip Ryken's style is simple and warm-hearted, coming as it does from the pen of one active in pastoral ministry."

- Douglas Dawson; Evangelical Times
