A Second Adam (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781847484505)

A second Adam to the fight And to the rescue came. John Henry Newman's words echo down the years and still touch us deeply today. They form the basis of Garth Ratcliffe's intelligent and persuasive Christian study guide, which explains who the 'Second Adam' was, why He died for us on the cross, and how He was then restored to life so that we too might have life. Eloquent citations from scripture, hymns, poetry and modern novels underscore a text that investigates Pauline and other New Testament teaching on such matters as faith, self-control, kindness, spiritual awareness and love, each chapter being highlighted with a list of questions for discussion. This is a work of great clarity and broad appeal, and should not be missing from the shelves of Christian believers. This is an excellent book. At a time when so much emphasis is placed on personal experience, it draws not just on the Bible, but on a wide range of literary voices. It provides a clear and objective explanation of the good news of Jesus Christ. It is an available resource both for those who want to find out more about Christianity and for those who wish to deepen their faith. Lord and Lady Griffiths of Fforestfach
