An emphasis on the Gospel -- particularly its transformational effects in the life of a believer -- has lately become a popular theme in conservative Christianity. Numerous catchphrases (e.g., gospel-centered preaching, cross-centered living, and grace-based parenting) expressing this emphasis appear in many recent books, blogs, conferences, and sermons further testifying to this current trend. Christians are finding great help and encouragement in scripturally informed thinking regarding the Gospel, its accomplishments, and its present-day implications. Numerous works on this subject are drawing attention to the Scripture's teaching of the Christian's position in Christ. Many in this movement are also confidently affirming the believer's full exemption from the anger of God. They argue that Christ bore the full amount of God's wrath toward sin in His propitiatory death on the cross; therefore, there is no divine anger remaining for a believer to experience -- ever. - Need.
