Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the teachings of the apostles after Christ's resurrection, to see what they believed about his identity. The author argues that the apostles clearly believed that Jesus was divine, as evidenced by their actions and words. They baptized in his name, taught that salvation could only be found through him, and attributed miracles to his power. The author also examines the use of the term "Lord" in the book of Acts, arguing that it was used in a way that indicated the apostles believed Jesus was divine. Finally, the author argues that the apostles believed that Jesus was worthy of religious worship, and that this was a known characteristic of their profession. The book concludes by discussing the significance of the apostles' beliefs about Jesus for our understanding of Christianity today.
