The Christian Faith: The Original Evangelical View by Christopher Boehnke

Description

What are the teachings of the Christian Faith? There’s such a wide variety of answers you’ll find today among different Christian churches, especially evangelical Protestants. Figuring out what you should believe can be confusing.

This book looks at the teachings of the Christian Faith from the view of the original Evangelicals. During the Reformation, these Evangelicals recovered the Gospel of Jesus based on the Bible and as taught by the universal Church. They put the Good News at the center of the Christian faith, rather than a doctrinal system

This understanding of the Christian faith gives the greatest assurance of God’s saving grace for weary sinners. Serving now as a Lutheran pastor, Chris shares his story of how the Lord awakened him to the liberating Gospel of Christ while attending a non-denominational church. Then, he summarizes the Christian faith in forty-seven topics from the view of the original Evangelicals.
