Truly to be wise, we must get to grips with Christ. --from publisher description.

Even allowing for hyperbole, this statement by a second-century rabbi contrasts sharply with the attitude of some Christians today, who apparently have little pl...
When it comes to the question of Jesus and what he is doing now, it is obvious that if we are ignorant or unsure about exactly who he is, we will never really understand what he is doing. Before we begin to look at the subject then we need to learn, or at least to brush up on, the matter of just who Christ is.
