Unity in Christ

A number of books exist on Christian unity. What makes this one different, and why do you need it in your library and heart? This one takes all pertinent details of Jesus' prayer for unity (John 17) seriously. It takes the gospel seriously. It puts Jesus first instead of humanism. It takes the Bible and righteousness by faith seriously, explaining the power of conversion and the Holy Spirit's unifying work at the heart of the gospel and Christian unity. It speaks in love and respect of Christians from all traditions but holds us accountable to Jesus that we find unity in Him and His word (not merely us). This book pulls truth from John's gospel, Ephesians, Philippians, and more! You will see the big picture of God's plan for our unity in context of the gospel, the fall and restoration of man spiritually both in and through Jesus. You will see the practical aspects of experiencing righteousness by faith, salvation by grace, and the gospel fruit of holiness all possible only in Christ. U
