This new edition of a standard text describes lucidly and
comprehensively the "classical Protestant faith" with the help of
illustrations drawn from contemporary life. It does not assume
previous knowledge yet does not avoid the more complex issues in
Christian theology, such as the theories of the atonement or the
doctrine of the trinity. In eight chapters the author explains,
against many current misunderstandings, what Christians mean by
faith. He describes the nature of revelation and the God who has
revealed himself -- and what this means for an understanding of the
world and the human condition in this world. This is followed by an
explanation of the doctrine of Christ, his humanity and divinity,
and his work on behalf of the human race. Professor Forell
concludes with an explanation of the work of the Holy Spirit
through the church by means of word and sacrament and details the
Christian hope for the coming kingdom of God. The Protestant Faith
has a valuable appendix which makes available the universal
Christian creeds and confessional statements, and adds to its
appeal as a text and reference manual.
