He contributed to a New Testament introduction for students and edited a revision and updating of Moulton and Geden's Concordance to the Greek Testament so that it can be used with the current major editions of the Greek New Testament as well as with older editions. In 2005 his New Testament Theology was the Gold Medallion Book Award winner.Шаблон:Sfn

Marshall was a critic of the Christ myth theory. In his book I Believe in the Historical Jesus he wrote that the idea that Jesus never existed has "failed to make any impression on scholarly opinion."Шаблон:Sfn His contribution to the UK television miniseries Jesus: The Evidence (Channel 4: 1984) was pitted against that of mythicist G. A. Wells, prompting Henry Chadwick, Regius Professor of Divinity at Cambridge University, to comment that the programmes "juxtaposed perfectly sensible scholarly opinions with opinions so outré and hard to defend on rational grounds that disservice was done to the sensible people by the company they were portrayed as keeping."Шаблон:Sfn

Marshall had an Arminian theology. With Arminius, he believed that unlimited atonement is consistent with penal substitution.Шаблон:Sfn In Kept by the Power of God (1969),Шаблон:Sfn Marshall mentioned the possibility of apostasy. He preferred the view of conditional security for having fewer exegetical difficulties, a point that was added eventually in an epilogue of Kept by the Power of God (1995).Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
