{"product_id":"2940011935879","title":"Expositions of Holy Scripture: Mark","description":"On our Lord's own lips and in the records of His life we find, as has already been noticed, the phrase, the gospel of the kingdom'--the good news of the establishment on earth of the rule of God in the hearts and lives of men. The person of the King is not yet defined by it. The diffused dawn floods the sky, and upon them that sit in darkness the greatness of its light shines, before the sun is above the horizon. The message of the Forerunner proclaimed, like a herald's clarion, the coming of the Kingdom, before he could say to a more receptive few, Behold the Lamb of God.' The order is first the message of the Kingdom, then the discovery of the King. And so that earlier phrase falls out of use, and when once Christ's life had been lived, and His death died, the gospel is no longer the message of an impersonal revolution in the world's attitude to God's will, but the biography of Him who is at once first subject and monarch of the Kingdom of Heaven, and by whom alone we are brought into it. The standing expression comes to be the gospel of Christ.'","brand":"New Century Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47161274597616,"sku":"2940011935879","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940011935879_p0.jpg?v=1763551565","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940011935879","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
