商品簡介
Forde's emphasis was what has come to be called “radical Lutheranism.” He argued that the God of the scriptures is an electing God, Godself doing through Christ and the proclamation of Christ all that is necessary to claim his own. Less frequently is Forde connected to the missional task of the church. It is possible to read Forde's work without being conscious of mission, and thus conclude that it is an area that does not particularly concern him. The author, through careful research, identifies the insights in Forde's work that are helpful to the missional enterprise and allows them to make their contribution to the wider missiological conversation.
