The Transforming Fire of Divine Love (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798385227419)

Most Bible readers know "God is love" (1 John 4:8,16). And most have heard the words of John 3:16 ("God so loved the world"), perhaps the best-known verse in the entire Bible. But few readers realize that these are perhaps the most daring verses in all the Scripture. Why? They tell us who God is and why we can trust him. Yet very few Christians realize how much of what they believe about the nature of God is rooted in ideas foreign to divine love. How did this happen? What can be done to change how we can relate to the God who is perfect and inexhaustible love? John Armstrong shares a deeply personal story of his long, slow journey to know and experience God as a compassionate and loving Father. As a pastor trained in evangelical theology he came to know and experience the teaching of the whole church about God, thus the story he tells will inform how you can know the God who is amazing love. This readable primer will help you develop a doctrine that can free you from guilt, fear, and many misconceptions we have about God. You will see that what you believe about God will truly affect everything else you believe.
