Inhaltsangabe

Bracquemont provides an articulate analysis shaped by his experiences with many different Christian denominations, positive and negative experiences, a struggling working-class life, Asperger's Syndrome (on the autistic spectrum), and a positive faith that believes firmly that Jesus provides not only eternal glory for those who accept him in faith but that Jesus, the gospel, and the Bible can also transform both individuals and the world. Bracquemont believes that God fervently loves all his human creatures, that God cares about the whole of human existence, and that one should not have to choose between the eternal and social elements of the gospel but that both are important. His disability has caused him to appreciate both the social and eternal elements of the gospel. He also feels that the dichotomy between the social and eternal has resulted in an incomplete and imbalanced presentation of the gospel from both sides, to the detriment of both Christianity and the world. Though Jesus lived two-thousand years ago, his teachings, his love, his holiness, and his purity are just as relevant and needed as they ever were in the past. Jesus, in this sense, is indeed timeless and relevant to every generation. This book is about justice and charity alike; about faith (without which no person can please God) and virtue alike.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Lucien Bracquemont is an autistic retired individual from Maine. He has survived emotional abuse and cancer at age 41, and has endured a life of autism, though not diagnosed until age 49-51. He has a bachelor's degree in Philosophy and two years of graduate studies in Theology. He survived five semesters of intense duress in the mid-1980's due to intense Politically Correct indoctrination which was accompanied by highly authoritarian intimidation. He immediately analyzed Political Correctness as a simplistic, fallacious, and totalitarian counterfeit of true social justice and equality. His critical analytical abilities would not allow him to conform to what he recognized as a counterfeit system. His status as an autistic thinker, though not identified until two decades later, enabled him to "think outside the box."
