Reign of God

The Reign of God is an introduction to Christian theology written from a Seventh-day Adventist standpoint. Its central idea is the kingdom of God, the sovereign rule of God that Scripture proclaims and that believers await in its fullness. Rather than treating doctrines as isolated topics, the book places them within that larger story. It considers God and revelation, the nature of humanity and sin, the person and work of Christ, salvation, the church, and the hope of the future. It is written for students and general readers who want a clear, faith-based overview of the subject.
