A Biblical Kingdom Theology: A Biblical Study of teh Kingdom of God in the context of His Missio Dei

In this challenging study Dr. Fair examines Kingdom Theology in the context of the history of kingdom views and ecclesiology in the recent history of Churches of Christ. He was challenged by a lecture and comment made by Dr. James I. Packer that Churches of Christ, in his view, had shown little interest in kingdom theology, but had majored in ecclesiology and studies of church structure notably since the 19th century Restoration Movement. Premillennial challenges arising within Churches of Christ in the mid-20th century and recent social justice concerns involving the meaning and context of kingdom living indicated to Fair that a serious examination of a biblical kingdom theology in the context of God’s Missio Dei covenant with Abraham was necessary. This book, then, seeks to examine the evangelistic missional nature of kingdom theology and God’s Missio Dei purpose in his kingdom call and commission of Abraham.
