Great Gospel Issues - Bloomfield, Peter

. .

Résumé :
The gospel's great issues all mesh together. To be wrong on one issue inevitably means errors in the others, resulting in a false gospel. Although these great issues were clarified in the Protestant Reformation, that is often ignored today. Were the Reformers right about issues like total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace, and the eternal perseverance of believers? Why is 'free will' a myth? Is predestination like fatalism? How should we understand God is love? Can we tell everyone 'God loves you'? What about God's wrath? How can he be both love and wrath? What is the great mystery of Christ? Did his incarnation mean a loss of some divine attributes? What does he emptied himself mean? In a fresh and engaging style, the writer explains these and other gospel issues. This book aims to shed light in our pragmatic age where truth is often 'dumbed down' in the embrace of ecumenism. Dislike for doctrinal precision and confessional integrity is widespread. Any doubts about that are demolished by checking the myriad 'Christian' internet sites promoting a vast array of contradictory gospel views....
