The Vital Questions series presents the thinking of knowledgeable, qualified authors on "vital questions" that Christians should be able to discuss intelligently. These concise books provide to-the-point answers and present the author's viewpoint, while allowing room for reader thought and disagreement.
Is God Intolerant? The definition of tolerance has changed from "putting up with the objectionable" to "affirming the diverse," and Christians are often accused of being intolerant. Daniel Taylor looks at Scripture and shows God's attributes--above all, his love. God does not call us to be tolerant; he calls us to love--a much higher standard.
