How can Christians effectively engage today's world while staying true to Scripture?
John Stott, in his book "The Contemporary Christian," calls us to listen well to both the Word and the world. He demonstrates how Christianity can preserve its authentic identity and remain relevant to current realities. Pastor Tim Chester has updated Stott's classic book in the "God's Word for Today" series, making it accessible to new generations of readers.
In "The Gospel," Stott declares that Christianity is not a religion but God's good news for the world. To present the gospel faithfully, we must emphasize both the human need for true freedom and the historical work of Christ.
Stott begins by exploring the human paradox, acknowledging our dignity and depravity. He addresses common objections to the gospel message, the significance of Jesus's physical resurrection, and what it means to affirm that Christ is Lord in all aspects of life.
The Gospel is a trustworthy guide for readers to understand the essence of the Christian faith and share the good news in a way that connects with people around us. Chapter 1, "The Human Paradox," examines what the Bible teaches and what our experience endorses: the glory and shame of our humanness, both our dignity as creatures made in God's image and our depravity as sinners under his judgment.
Chapter 2, "Human Freedom," explores what is traditionally called salvation, seen in terms of authentic freedom. Chapters 3 and 4 delve into the central themes of Jesus's death and resurrection, securing our freedom. This section also addresses various objections and denials.
Chapter 5, "The Far-Reaching Implications," explores the far-reaching implications of the gospel for both faith and life. It encourages readers to live out their faith in radical ways and make a positive impact in the world.
In conclusion, "The Gospel" offers a valuable resource for Christians seeking to engage with today's world while staying true to Scripture. Stott's insights and teachings provide a solid foundation for understanding the gospel message and sharing it effectively with others. By emphasizing the human need for freedom and the historical work of Christ, Christians can remain relevant and make a positive difference in the world.
