‘Murray’s distinctive… is his careful exegesis of Scripture passages, so that his theological assertions come straight from the Word of God with all the authority which that gives them. His treatment of the order of application of redemption is masterly. . . one of the greatest theological books written in the last hundred years.’– FREE CHURCH WITNESS
Book Description
The value of John Murray’s writing as a theologian has been increasingly recognised in recent years. Here we find the same strong theology, but distilled and expressed for Christian in general rather than for theological students in particular.
Murray deals with the nature and meaning of the death of Christ, and with the way in which the Christian inherits the blessings which flow from it, through regeneration, justification, adoption, sanctification and glorification. There is, he says, ‘an unbreakable chain of events proceeding from God’s eternal purpose in foreknowledge and predestination to the glorification of the people of God.’

Iain Mackenzie –
The first book I read as a Christian. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. It gave me a great grounding in the Reformed faith. It is not an easy read but even if you were only to read and digest two pages at a time then it will benefit you no end. There is a depth to Prof Murray’s writings that require a great deal of meditating but what a subject to be meditating upon. A must read for every serious student of the Reformed faith and every seriously minded Christian. My youngest son struggled with it however I believe he will go back to it in time. It is a book that you can pick up, dust off after 30 years and still find something that will affect your soul in a good way.

This is a very valuable book written by John Murray. The book is divided into two parts: 1. Redemption accomplised; 2. Redemption applied.
In part one, Murray shows us in depth, the need for, the nature and the significance of the death of Christ. In the second part, he then shows the blessings that come from it. This section begins with an explanation of what is often known as the ‘ordo salutis’ – the order of salvation. From a study of Romans 8:30, Murray shows us the order of the blessings: effectual calling, regeneration, faith and repentance, justification, adoption, sanctification, perseverance, union with Christ, glorification. This is then followed by an individual, helpful chapter on each of these terms. Each blessing being thoroughly explained by reference to appropriate Bible passages.
This particular book is written in a very readable and clear style. Christians need to be clear regarding the theology of the atonement. This book, although written many years ago, will be a great help in clarifying issues. A classic.
