Yet American Christians are deeply divided about what it means to follow him. Bible scholar Borg takes us on a journey to discover who Jesus was, what he taught, and why he still matters today. Borg argues that how we see Jesus affects how we see Christianity and reveals a new way of seeing--a new perspective that can overcome the differences between the literalists and progressives, a path that emphasizes following "the way" of Jesus, the original name of the Jesus movement. Jesus remains the decisive revelation of God, but we now encounter him as both a reality and a role model centered in God, focused on both personal and political transformation, emphasizing practices rather than beliefs, and exemplifying a faith characterized by deep commitment and gentle certitude.--From publisher description. | | Subject | : | Jesus ChristPerson and offices | | Subject | : | Jesus ChristHistoricity | | Subject | : | Jesus ChristTeachings | | Subject | : | Jesus ChristSignificance | | Dewey Classification | : | 232 | | LC Classification | : | BT203.B67 2006 |
