The Mystery of Christ . . . and Why We Don't Get It - Paperback
by Robert Farrar Capon (Author)
Widely recognized as a creative, insightful writer, Robert Farrar Capon offers still more of his uniquely provocative fare in The Mystery of Christ . . . and Why We Don't Get It. This engaging book probes the meaning of salvation -- peace, forgiveness, grace, reconciliation -- spoken of in the New Testament as a "mystery."
Reminding his readers, sometimes in startling ways, that salvation is a gift rather than a transaction, Capon uses a variety of dialogues to drive home the truth that "there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Along the way he explores guilt, forgiveness, love, anger, romance, grief, spiritual contentment, the Incarnation, reincarnation, resurrection, and more -- and manages to make salvation something fresh and new in the process.Robert Farrar Capon (1925-2013) was an Episcopal priest and the author of many popular books, including The Supper of the Lamb.
