| Résumé : |
Belief in the second coming is indispensable to biblical Christianity. In a world without real hope, this doctrine is crucial for a positive and relevant Christian perspective. "An earthly hope without the prospect of life beyond death is illusory and shortlived"t, writes the author. "But a real hope of eternal life with God sets us free from anxiety about death, nd frees us to work for the transformation of the world".
S. Travis reveals that the return of Christ dominates the hope of the New Testament. Christians must distinguish, he argues, between various date-fixers' schedules for the end of the world, and the biblical certainty of Christ's glorious return "as a thief in the night". The courage, the clarity and the teaching skills of Dr Travis in this important book are going to help a great many people. Those who have ceased to believe in the return of Christ will be made to think again. Those who will think of little else may have broader perspectives brought to their attention (Michael Green) |
