More DescriptionWas our Lord’s service social or redemptive? Does Christ not command social service to all men? Should we insist on justice because God is just, or deny our rights because God is longsuffering? How will the believer know which is the proper course of social action at a particular time? Should wealthy persons disperse their possessions?
Dr. Ryrie addresses these and other pertinent questions in his classic book on the Christian’s social responsibility. Dr. Ryrie gives insight into how we can be both salt and light in today’s world, talks about the personal priorities of Christ while on earth, and talks about our duties or responsibilities to all men as well as our civic responsibilities.
How does one determine the extent of their involvement in this world? The Biblical foundations Dr. Ryrie discusses here prove to be both relevant and timely.
