This latest volume in the Christian Doctrine in Global Perspective series mines the Old and New Testaments for insight into the notion of salvation articulated in Revelation 7:10, in which the gathered multitudes render praise to God "who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!" Christopher J. H. Wright, renowned scholar and champion for the church in the Majority World, considers the amazing promise in the picture painted here: that God is gathering together a people from every tribe, people and language, delivering them from evil in fulfillment of the Scriptures.
