“The Gospel in Ezekiel” is a wonderful work. Guthrie does not lead his readers chapter by chapter through the entire book, but takes us verse by verse in one chapter–chapter 36. His contention is that this chapter–Ezekiel chapter 36–is the very outline of the message of the gospel. Spiritual death and judgment is herein typified in Ezekiel through exile from the land. Restoration from exile to the land–along with all the abundant blessings therein–is a grande fore-picturing of the blessings of salvation.
This theological masterpiece offers an insightful exploration of the gospel's presence within the prophecies of Ezekiel, revealing the timeless truths of God's redemptive plan for humanity.
Through a series of carefully crafted discourses, Guthrie unpacks the prophetic messages of Ezekiel, illuminating the profound connections between the Old Testament prophecies and the New Testament fulfillment in Christ. Each chapter explores critical themes such as human sinfulness, divine justice, mercy, redemption, and the transformative power of God's grace.
Guthrie's eloquent prose and deep theological insight provide readers with a richer understanding of the gospel's foundational truths, encouraging a deeper faith and a more profound appreciation for the continuity of God's salvific work throughout the scriptures.
Whether you are a seasoned theologian or a devoted believer seeking to deepen your understanding of biblical prophecy and its fulfillment, "The Gospel in Ezekiel" is a treasure trove of spiritual wisdom that bridges the ancient prophecies with the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ. Join Guthrie on this enlightening journey and witness the unfolding of God's redemptive story as revealed through the prophetic lens of Ezekiel.
