In Faith Works, John MacArthur answers charges against contradicting the New Testament message of salvation by grace through faith by taking a passionate look at the most critical issue of our day: the Lordship of Christ. In terms everyone can understand, Faith Works presents a message of eternal significance for non-Christians and defines who we are as Christians - a message that stands in stark contrast to the hollow "gospel" many are proclaiming today. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Ever since the days of the apostles Paul and James, Christians have struggled to define the proper tension between faith and works. Salvation, Paul stresses is "not by works, so that no one can boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9). But James argues, "Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works" (2:18). In his characteristic compelling style Dr. MacArthur reconciles these two seemingly divergent threads of biblical truth, taking on the difficult questions head on: What is cheap grace? Have some Christians adopted a "no-lordship" theology? What must a person do to be considered righteous by God? Do our works have any affect on our salvation? Jesus asked his followers, "Why do you call me Lord and not do the things that I tell you to?" When John MacArthur dared in his earlier book to ask us this question, critics accused him of shelving grace. Others read the same book and heard in it the identical message preached since the founding of the Church. "The Gospel According to the Apostles is the same gospel Jesus preached," Dr. MacArthur says, "but it differs dramatically from the diluted message popular today. I pray you'll find this book an encouragement as you seek to put your own faith to work." No library descriptions found. |
