Defense of the True Believer: a challenging look at Christ’s nature
This historical defense argues that belief in Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God, is the path to life, not a claim that he is God Himself. The book surveys gospel aims, miracles, and key passages to separate Christ’s divinity from the role of the Father. It also examines how early writers and church history have been used in debates about the Trinity.
In accessible chapters, the author compares Christ’s humanity with his divine mission and asks readers to weigh scriptural evidence carefully. The discussion moves from the Gospel of John to broader scriptural and historical claims, focusing on the unity of God and the status of Jesus within that framework.
What you’ll experience:
- A clear argument that belief in Jesus as the Son of God is central to salvation.
- Close readings of gospel text and a critique of common Trinity proofs.
- Historical context about early Christian beliefs and developments in doctrine.
- Questions for readers to consider about faith, worship, and scriptural interpretation.
Ideal for readers exploring historical Christian theology, doctrinal disputes, and families seeking a measured, scriptural approach to faith questions.
