A New Creation in Christ

“Walter Marshall’s important treatise addressed a crucial conflict between antinomianism and a form of legalism at a decisive time in English history. T. Michael Christ, in this book, is the first to consider Marshall’s contribution in both context and depth, and he does so with keen acumen and fine judgment. It is an indispensable source for any serious consideration of the question.”

“This work from T. Michael Christ is an illuminating key in understanding Walter Marshall and his Christian classic. Michael writes with comprehension, clarity, and persuasion as he centralizes the gospel imperative of union with Christ in Marshall. The work is a significant contribution to historical doctrine, demonstrating Marshall’s biblical perpendicular in sanctification in an era of extremes.”


—Natalie Brand, author of Complementarian Spirituality: Reformed Women and Union with Christ





“Paul describes his ministry’s focus as ‘making known the riches of the mystery,’ namely ‘Christ in you, the hope of glory.’ The modern church’s neglect of union with Christ has led to a departure from a distinctly Christian approach to sanctification. T. Michael Christ serves the church today by retrieving the work of Walter Marshall on this important topic. Take and read and have your heart and mind filled with the riches of the gospel, which as Walter Marshall argues is ‘the only means of producing real righteousness.’”
