Principles of purity, January 25, 2010
This review is from: The Church Before the Watching World : A Practical Ecclesiology (Paperback)
This valuable book is addressed to Christians today and involves the principle of the practice of the purity of the visible church in regard to doctrine and life; and the principle of the practice of an observable love and oneness among all true Christians. Schaeffer concentrates on the first principle.
Schaeffer continuously quotes scripture as he tackles subjects such as the liberal theological shift over time from Christian orthodoxy; and the apostasy and unfaithfulness of our marriage to both Christ and our spouse; also the practice of community, which we tend to forget about. He completes this work with the absolute limits to where the Christian can go before going into the "doctrinal danger zone", but still allowing for freedom.
There is so much here, as it is with most of his works.
Wish you well
Scott
