Product Description
The legacy of the Reformation has given to the world the Word of God in our hands and in our vernacular...and their rallying tenet of Sola Scriptura has opened the windows of privilege for every individual believer to read and study the Scriptures for himself/herself, albeit accurately. The torch of the magisterial Reformers has been passed down through the centuries via the theological traditions of the Reformed/Covenant theologies. Yet now a sinister Hydra has infiltrated the ranks and file of the Protestant church. With the advent of a smorgasbord of movements and traditions...many barely threading on the line between truth and falsehood...what and how can the individual believer practise discernment? From amongst the halls of our very own local theological academia comes a book that calls for a biblically balanced Christianity. A Different Gospel: Fact, Faith, Fiction and the Christian Faith is one tome that exposes the issues that are facing us today. Dr. Lim is a navigator which helps us on our hermeneutical meanderings, along the many by-ways of the theological spectrum. From the modern-day Charismatic movement to the postmodern "apostolic reformation" movement, what this author does is to present to us the relevant issues and problems, and with a skilful precision slices through the fog of fiction to get at the kernel of truth. Let the light of the glorious Scriptures so shine forth...Soli Deo Gloria. |
