A Doctrine On The Beginning Of Christian Life: Volume I

In this publication, "A Doctrine On The Beginning Of The Christian Faith,"It points to the fact that God is working out through Jesus Christ and his Church a redemptive program on the earth. Redemption is to be the goal and peak of creation. There is nothing more profound in the mind and purpose behind God than his plan to redeem. God works out his redemption regardless of the restricting powers on the earth. The Bible says, "With wicked hands men crucified him, in doing so they carried out what was in the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God" (Acts 2:23). Jesus was crucified on our behalf. This is his redemptive work as it works itself out in human experience. What is becoming a Christian? What sort of a transaction is it? What do we mean by salvation? How is a man saved? These questions strike a chord when we think about them from the point of view of involvement and life. Is salvation something that takes place all at once or is it a continuous process? "The Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10). Faithful is the saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners" (I Timothy 1:15). "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life" (John 3:16). "For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved" (John 3:17). "He that believeth on him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already because he hath believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God (Jesus Christ)" (John 3:18).
