Gospel Truth: Understanding and Treasuring the Gospel of Christ

“It’s the Gospel Truth!” we insist, when we want to establish the truth of what we say. But what really is Gospel Truth? Every Christian church claims to know the Gospel, but how faithful to Gospel Truth are we? The author uses his Lutheran training in distinguishing the Biblical messages of law and Gospel in order to clarify Gospel Truth and defend it from falsehoods and distortions. His intent is that the Gospel be rightly and clearly presented so that it is the Good News and saving Truth that God intends it to be.Surveying the Biblical record, historical debates, theological writings, church teachings, and illustrating with pastoral experiences, this book presents the Gospel as a multi-faceted diamond, the heart of which is Christ. God’s unparalleled Good News is to be treasured in every heart.The author, Rev. David Atrops, graduated from Concordia Theological Seminary, St Louis, and served congregations of The Lutheran Church – Missouri Synod in Idaho, Washington, and California.
