A church without Jesus? Impossible you say? Yet theologian and pastor Dr. Christopher Peppler argues that in much of the church of today good works, spiritual manifestations, social issues and even the Bible itself, have edged out Jesus's pivotal place in the Christian life. In his newly revised edition of Truth is The Word, he argues the case for Jesus as the living Word - and the Bible as the written Word of God. Therefore the scriptures should be understood with reference to the person, words and ministry of Jesus Christ. Truth is manifest in and through the Bible, then the church, individual illumination, and, finally, Christian lives.With the subtitle 'restoring a lost focus', this book is aimed at contributing to the efforts of many to refocus both Christians and the church itself on the Lord Jesus Christ.Truth is the Word is aimed at Christians of all denominations and theological persuasions, particularly pastors, elders and other church leaders. Easy to read and theologically rich, the book touches on many of the keenly debated doctrinal issues of today.
