Knowing
about our Lord Jesus Christ, is a subject in which christians must invest much
of our time and all our interest. Usually books on Christology are quite technical,
but this book entitled "Is Jesus Truly God?" It's a great
introduction to who Jesus is, but particularly his divinity.
Dr. Lanier
starts from a very important concept within Christology, such as preexistence,
also considering the Son in the Trinity, and what the Old Testament announces
about him, and how all the Scriptures affirm that Jesus is the truly the Son of
God.
This book
makes a great contribution in the midst of a time in which skepticism and very
harmful theological currents are influencing not only society but also some
Christian communities. Many are wondering about the identity of Jesus and if he
is truly divine.
In addition,
the reader should consider that this book is not merely an informative book,
but also contributes to rethinking our lives as believers in light of the
testimony of the Scriptures. Bible school teachers and pastors will greatly
benefit from this book to make even more accurate expositions about Christ as
our divine savior.
It should
be noted that the book makes reference to important theological works that the
reader can also consult for a better reading. The writing style is clear, enjoyable
and understandable.
Do you want
to know what the Scriptures say about Jesus as God? This book can be a
supplement to your search.
