Credible Christianity: The Gospel in Contemporary Society

Author: Montefiore, Hugh

Number Of Pages: 287

Details: Product Description Credible Christianity teaches the basics of the Christian faith in wholly contemporary terms. According to Hugh Montefiore, the way in which we express Christian doctrine today must be different from the way it was expressed in the early days of the Christian church. If the Christian faith is to be credible today - indeed, says Montefiore, if it is to survive - it must be expressed in the images and thought forms of today's world as well as in contemporary language. Surveying the full scope of Christian doctrine - including creation, anthropology, Christology, theology proper, ecclesiology, and eschatology - this volume offers a freshly inculturated presentation of Christianity's foundational beliefs, replete with well-considered references to the natural and human sciences. Montefiore's timely restatement of theology will help assure that the Christian faith remains credible to a church approaching the twenty-first century. About the Author Hugh Montefiore is an Honorary Fellow of St. John's College, Oxford.
