The Gospel According to the Apostles: The Role of Works in the Life of Faith

John F. MacArthur

Discover how the apostles shared the truths of salvation in the early church and what that same Gospel means for the church today.

The apostles understood the Gospel as they learned from and personally lived alongside Jesus, and these lessons became the heart of their message to an unsaved world. But what does their perspective mean for modern Christians, and how can we read the Bible through their unique lens today?

In The Gospel According to the Apostles, Dr. John MacArthur examines some of the key passages from the Epistles and Acts that reveal how the apostles first shared the gospel and how they unfolded the truths of salvation to the early church.

With his characteristic compelling style, Dr. MacArthur doesn't shy away from answering some of the difficult questions Christians today are asking, including:

  • What is cheap grace?
  • Have some Christians adopted a "no-lordship" theology?
  • What must a person do to be considered righteous by God?
  • How should we call people to faith?
  • Do our works have any effect on our salvation?

The Gospel According to the Apostles is a book for every Christian who wants to experience, understand, and fall in love with the same gospel that Jesus preached.
