Much of what we know about theology, about justification, adoption, sanctification and glorification, comes directly from the writings of the apostle Paul. If Paul's letters were removed from Scripture our understanding of these truths would be greatly impoverished. Guy Prentiss Waters takes both halves of the subject in turn: the life as Acts and the letters record it, and the theology that life produced.

Waters is a New Testament scholar writing here for a general reader, and the book works as a short introduction to Pauline theology for someone who has never had one. Part of Ligonier's teaching series in book form. Useful for a Sunday school class, a small group, or a reader about to work through the epistles.
