The Present Truth

by Martin Murphy

The author looks for the church with the present truth of Scripture as His guide. The Summary of The Present Truth is found in this remark about the State of the Church. “The More I look at the church the less I see of the church. The more I look at the American culture, the more I see the church.” Each chapter is practically theological and purposely penetrates the surface of evangelical church. It is the present truth. This book consists of essays written over the past twenty years because of some encounter the author had with biblical doctrine, theological inquiry, or philosophical contemplation." It will challenge some, encourage others, but it will cause everyone to give thought to the present truth.

The Present Truth
By: Martin Murphey

Martin has 20 years worth of essays encountering different topics of a Christian. So many opinions out there what the Bible says. (mans view). So for the last thirty-three years he has devoted his time musing the meaning of life. Where do we stand in our Christian walk. It is always easy to point our fingers at people and show where they fall short. Instead we should be pointing 3 fingers back at ourselves. Different topics Martin discussed in the book were, 1. State of the Christian 2. State of the Church 3, Nature of the Church, plus 15 other topics. Including one on Marriage. How are we as Christians to live in this world? We should be shinning so the light of Christ shines through. I fully enjoyed this book. Would make a good group study book.
