Embracing Purpose : Essays on God, the World and the Church PDF
by Geoffrey Wainwright
- Information
Description
In this selection of recent essays, Geoffrey Wainwright continues to probe some perennial questions posed by existence amid the world and before God.
Firmly rooted in the classical Christian tradition, he finds illumination in the Scriptures, the history of doctrine, and the liturgical practices of the Church.
The recurrent theme is the comprehensive purpose of God for creation, embodied in the Word made flesh, and looking in turn to be grasped by human beings.
The focal image is that of Jesus suspended on the cross, reflected in the lines of Charles Wesley:The arms of love that compass meWould all mankind embrace.
