Good Books: The Dust of Death
In the last 6 months I read "The Dust of Death" by Os Guiness twice. The last two chapters are realy worth the price of the book. Let me quote his final three sentences.
"The Christian life is not just difficult; it is impossible. But it is exactly here that humanism leaves off and the Christian faith begins.
That is also why only this uniquely "impossible" faith-with a God who is, with an incarnation that is earthly and historical, with a salvation that is at cross-purposes with human nature, with a resurrection that blasts apart the finality of death-is able to provide an alternative to the sifting, settling dust of death and through a new birth open the way to new life."
Amen!
