| Résumé : |
Believing that the cross stands at the heart of the Christian faith, George Carey has written The Gate of Glory to counter the growing trend among modern Christians to “brush the cross aside” in favor of “more relevant” subjects such as the resurrection, the Spirit, and the church. Carey maintains, however, that to lose the cross is to lose everything; to shift it from the center to the circumference of Christian faith is to render the Christian gospel ineffective.
Writing from a perspective that is evangelical in the main, yet ecumenically oriented to benefit all Christians—whether Catholic, Protestant, liberal, or evangelical—Carey explores the cross in relation to the Old and New Testaments, and describes the significance of the cross for our daily lives. The Gate of Glory will serve as a valuable resource for church leaders who wish to deepen their understanding of the faith, as a comprehensive handbook for theological and Bible college students, and as an inspiring guide for all Christians who wish to journey to the cross anew. |
