Putting Jesus in His Place

Robert M. Bowman Jr. & J. Ed Komoszewski
Purchase

What Christians have affirmed for nearly two millennia (that Jesus is God) is frequently and openly called into question today. It’s natural that those who reject the Bible also reject its exalted view of Christ. But surprisingly, many who embrace the authority of Scripture are quick to argue that Jesus’ deity is found nowhere in its pages.

Putting Jesus in His Place demonstrates that the New Testament–from beginning to end–clearly reveals Jesus’ divine identity. What’s more, it shows that belief in Jesus as God was the conviction of his original Jewish followers, rooted in Old Testament theology and in what Jesus himself said and did.

In a manner that is both academically sound and spiritually engaging, the authors make a case for the deity of Christ that is easy to follow and hard to forget.

Be Anchored

Be Anchored

As Christians, we are to be anchored in the knowledge of God’s Word; confident in its truth, and committed to maturing in our relationship to our Lord Jesus Christ. Anchored is a multi-year sermon series equipping Christians to pursue this calling. This sermon series examines both systematic and biblical theology and also provides a framework for expanded study. If you choose, you can complete additional reading assignments, memorize Scripture and biblical knowledge, and test your knowledge with online quizzes.

You can access audio and video recordings of each lesson here on this page. In addition, for those who choose to expand their study, each section has its own page where you can view required resources, upcoming assignments, and take online quizzes.

Anchored is taught at Countryside Bible Church in Southlake, TX by Pastors Tom Pennington, and Rocky Wyatt.
