God's Being in Reconciliation: The Theological Basis of the Unity and Diversity of the Atonement in the Theology of Karl Barth
Adam J. Johnson
One of the most pressing issues in the doctrine of the atonement today is the question of the unity and diversity of the work of Christ. What are we to make of the diversity within the biblical witness and the history of doctrine when it comes to explanations of the meaning and significance of Jesus' death and resurrection? Without a grasp of the unity of his work, our understanding and use of the diversity runs the risk of becoming haphazard and disordered. Proposals regarding the unity of Christ's work today tend to focus on the metaphorical nature of language, the role of culture, and various possible conceptual schemes, rarely reflecting on unity and diversity proper to the being God. To fill this gap, Johnson draws on Karl Barth's integrated account of the doctrines of God and reconciliation, harnessing the resources contained within the doctrines of the Trinity and divine perfections to energize a properly theological account of the unity and diversity of the atonement.

Diagrammatical Analysis
Lee L. Kantenwein
Diagrammatical Analysis is designed to facilitate the student's understanding of syntactical relationships in grammar. The parts of speech are defined and diagrammatically illustrated in English, Greek and Hebrew. Beginning with one's spoken language, the analyst has a foundation upon which he can build his understanding of the peculiar and salient features of Greek and Hebrew syntax. Therefore, the diagrammed analysis of the original languages forms a basis for outlining the Biblical text and preaching an exegetical expository sermonic structure. The purpose is to allow the syntax to suggest the sermonic organization which the student can preach and teach with confidence and authority, rather than communicating an outline placed or forced upon a passage of scripture.
