Seller's Description:
Very Good. Opening this book, it is hard not to be puzzled by how strangely overlooked it has been. Originally published in 1974, reissued with a new preface in 1992, it still has not received the attention it deserves. It is one of only a handful of books that relates Trinitarian doctrine to the most pervasive realities of our everyday lives, to a Christian public largely unaware of the sources of historical theology and unfamiliar with technical theological language, in a manner that is natural, unforced, and genuine. To such an audience, Allen believes it is possible to ''show that the main Christian doctrines--creation, the Trinity, the Incarnation, the kingdom of God, the resurrection of the dead--are not dull, dry, shopworn teachings, but life-giving truths that nourish us, guide our actions, and help us know what we may expect and hope for. '' Spine shows severe sunning, but text is like new.
