How Christ Came to Church is an autobiography by preacher, author
and educator Adoniram Judson Gordon. The author seeks to frame his
life in his very identity as a man of God, with decades of
experience establishing and working for the Christian church. We
receive a superb discussion on both the events that defined
Gordon's career; the attitude to the church as an institution; the
vitality of preaching; and Christ as a crucial thread through all.
The religious and theological second part is, owing to its general
departure from ordinary biographical narrative, framed as the
author's 'dream'. It is here that the author details his ideas of
church roles and Jesus in greatest detail. The qualities the
physical structure of a church must have, as a temple and place of
God, are amply detailed. The third and final part is concerned with
the character of A. J. Gordon himself; how he efforted to conform
his life and deeds with those of Christ.
"Have any healing miracles taken place since the Biblical era?" is
the central question of this thesis by theologian and preacher A.
J. Gordon. The author expresses curiosity about whether the
miracles of the Middle Ages and later can be relied and verified as
a continuation of Christ's spirit in the Christian church. Through
deep study and inquiry of the established history, he concludes
that the power to heal followers remains with the church - there
was no special era of miracle working; God and His powers remain
the same in the modern era, as they have right through human
history. Although other scholars assert that miracles are something
solely of Christ, the disagreement of A. J. Gordon and others
represents a split in theological scholarship. For the author,
God's intervention in the suffering and sickness of His followers
his frequent; the will of the Lord however is variable - He will
not prolong the pain of someone whose illness is too great.

Eschatology
This Is A New Release Of The Original 1894 Edition.
"How Christ Came to Church" is an anthology of many of Adoniram
Judson Gordon's (1836-1895) works. This new edition is edited by
Ralph I. Tilley. A. J. Gordon is mostly known in contemporary
Evangelical circles by two Christian institutions bearing his name:
Gordon College and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Both
schools are located in Massachusetts. However, long before these
schools were launched, Dr. Gordon became widely known as the pastor
of Clarendon Street Baptist Church, Boston. It was in the early
years of his ministry at the church, when Gordon experienced both a
remarkable dream and special anointing of the Holy Spirit. These
events precipitated a change in his life and ministry, that would
eventually impact thousands around the world. Through the Holy
Spirit's personal dealings with him, Gordon became convinced that
most ministers and Christians were living beneath their gospel
privileges. In reviewing his own walk with Christ and ministerial
labors, he came to realize that so much of what he had been engaged
in as a minister was done through human effort instead of in the
strength and wisdom of the Spirit. He longed for a greater sense of
reality in his walk with Christ; he craved a holy heart and a
crucified ego; he wanted to be a truly fruitful branch on the Vine.
Gordon learned, that when Christ is truly welcomed into the lives
of individual Christians and churches, his unhindered presence
makes all the difference.
