This book was used in mine and my husbands college coarse. I have read it twice. I find studying the Doctrins are importan so we can explain things to others as well as use them in our lives. My big book is about torn up now and I need a new one. I would reccomend every believer read this book. Sin was judged on the cross I'm not sure it was concured.

Since Jesus came to conquer sin (and resultant death) we need to switch our focus from sin consciousness to the solution to our sinning. When Jesus cried on the cross, "It is finished," it was. Young children have no sin consciousness, they only trust that tomorrow will bring breakfast and whatever else tomorrow promises, and they trust their parents or guardians to provide what they have always provided, love and security. Jesus said that unless we become like little children (and begin to understand and believe God's grace like little children) we cannot (CANNOT) enter the Kingdom of God. It is a very difficult thing for adults to actually believe that when Jesus said, "It is finished," it actually was. When Christians actually start to believe that and then start living victoriously, then they will see others taking note and they will want that victory too. The penalty for sin is paid! What more do we want from God? Whew … this is one huge blog!!

Acts 3:19-21 records statements that the Apostle Peter delivered to a crowd of Jews in the area of the Temple sometime after the Day of Pentecost (Acts 3:1-11). After Peter told this crowd that they were guilty of rejecting and killing Jesus Christ, but that God resurrected Him from the dead (vv. 12-15), he then commanded them to repent (change their minds concerning Jesus Christ) and convert (turn to accept Him as their Messiah and Savior). Peter indicated that this repentance and conversion would be necessary for their sins to be blotted out (v. 19). In addition, Peter signified that this repentance and conversion would also be necessary in order for “the times of refreshing” to come (v. 19) (the word translated “when” in the expression “when the times of refreshing shall come” indicates purpose—William F. Arndt and F. Wilbur Gingrich, A Greek-English Lexicon Of The New Testament, p. 580). This means that the future times of refreshing cannot come until the people of Israel change their minds concerning Jesus Christ and turn to accept Him as their Messiah and Savior. The expression “the times of refreshing” refers to “the Messianic Age” (Arndt and Gingrich, Ibid., p. 63), the age when the Messiah will administer God’s rule over the entire earth in the future theocratic kingdom. Peter also indicated that the future times of refreshing cannot come until God sends Jesus Christ from Heaven to be physically present on the earth again (vv. 19-20). He emphasized this further by making the following assertion: “Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things” (v. 21). Heaven had already received Christ into itself on the day of His ascension sometime before Peter made these Acts 3 statements (Acts 1:9). The word “until” in the expression “until the times of restitution of all things” indicated that Christ would not remain in Heaven forever (see also Acts 1:10-11). Thus, Peter was signifying that the future times of restitution of all things cannot come until Christ returns from Heaven to earth in His Second Coming after the Tribulation (see Matthew 24:21, 29-30). The expressions “the times of refreshing” and “the times of restitution of all things” refer to the same times and “mutually explain one another” (Albrecht Oepke, “apokatastasis,” Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, Vol. I, p. 391). Thus, both refer to the future Messianic Age when the Messiah will administer God’s rule over the entire earth in the restored theocratic kingdom.
