Faith Revisited

This book should interest any who ponder how human existence can hold meaning and purpose in a disrupted cosmos. The primary aim is to encourage the development of Christian faith both as a channel of insight into present realities and as a bastion of hope for the future. Part I, especially relevant to those readers who lack a church background, outlines the essentials of personal salvation through belief in Jesus Christ and his message, the Gospel or 'Good News'. Part II describes the outworking of the faith that comes with assurance of salvation through Jesus. Ways are shown in which his Spirit can lead to personal maturity through growth in faith, hope for the future, self-denying love and an active prayer life. Fruit of this maturity are considered, including insights into coping with suffering. Outreach to others through evangelism and the church is outlined, including a section on presenting 'revelation'. The book ends with a glimpse of future challenges.
