Christ Our Salvation

by Hans K. Larondelle, Jac Colon (Editor)

With the pen of a scholar, moved by the heart of a compassionate pastor, Dr. LaRondelle reviews the essential truths of the christian gospel. He does not avoid past problems that have divided the christian church-he faces them with intellectual rigor and Christian joy.He asks, "How can these two concepts be the fact that God in Christ has reconciled the world to Himself, and God's command to man to be reconciled to God? Why after God's act of reconciliation must there be an act of man?"In the authors answer, such subjects as divine election and providence, gospel of reconciliation, justification, sanctification, and glorification are explained. Dr LaRondelle writes "The Christian hope to Peter and John was not sterile quietism or wishful thinking, but a hope that actually purified the Christian life from sinful habits, taking Christ's historical life among men as the shining pattern of holiness and the norm of righteousness."Hans K. LaRondelle, Th.D., was a professor of theology at the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan. He earned his doctorate in systematic theology in 1971 from the Free University in Amsterdam under G. C. Berkouwer.
