Rachel Winkler’s Reviews > From Eden to the New Jerusalem: An Introduction to Biblical Theology > Status Update

“Like the original Passover sacrifice, his [Christ’s] death atones for the sin of the people, his blood purifies and cleanses, and those who eat his body at the Lord’s Supper share in his holy nature. In this way, the followers of Jesus become ‘holy ones’ or ‘saints.’”

“Our hope rests not on what we can do to please God, but rather on what the Lamb has done for us.”

Over halfway through, and man…this is one of my favorites I’ve read for seminary thus far. Such a solid, succinct introduction to the one big story of Scripture. It makes me so, so excited for the New Jerusalem to which all of creation is headed.
