No realm of research has offered more thrilling rewards or afforded greater promise of continued progress than the study of Biblical archaeology. Although New Testament archaeology has not been called upon to perform the sensational feats accomplished by Old Testament archaeological research, its importance is no less far-reaching and is becoming more and more significant, as the study of this volume will show. Dealing with a much shorter span of history (a mere century in contrast to the several millennia of the Old Testament world), New Testament archaeological research is concerned largely with smaller groups of individuals bound together by spiritual ties rather than a whole nation like Israel held together by political bonds. Such data have been more difficult to apply to the New Testament, but are no less important or exciting, according to Dr. Unger. The author bases his study on the premise that the New Testament is the capstone and consummation of Old Testament revelation and is thus inseparably connected with the Old Testament, recording God's full and final message for sinful men. Skillfully and reverently, Dr. Unger unfolds a wealth of material dealing with this era in the history of the world, profusely illustrating his text with scores of interesting and informative photos and authenticated drawings.

( Sweeping through Christianity in recent years has been ...)
Sweeping through Christianity in recent years has been the pervasive charismatic movement. With it has come an emphasis on the work of the Holy Spirit, and particularly on the baptism of the Spirit and the ggifts of the Spirit. In this comprehensive study, Dr. Unger examines these two closely related subjects in the light of biblical truth. He exposes many of the errors and misconceptions of the modern charismatic movement as he opens whole new areas of thought on these important subjects for all believers. Beginning with a short history of the rise of the charismatic movement, Unger proceeds to examine the biblical evidence regarding this important theme. He points out the movement’s misconceptions about the baptism of the Spirit and the doctrinal errors these misconceptions can cause. While discussing the evidence in the gospels and Acts, Unger always keeps in view the dispensational divisions that are crucial in understanding these texts. After discussing the evidence found in the epistles, he turns to the relationship between the baptism of the Spirit and the ggifts of the Spirit and power in the Christian life. Even experienced Christians will find in this volume a whole new understanding of the scope and importance of this vital doctrine. Although misunderstood and misrepresented by the charismatic movement, it is still of great importance to believers.
