Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book takes an in-depth look at faith in the figure of Jesus Christ and traces its development from the inception of the faith to the present day. The author explores the various meanings of the term 'faith in Christ' throughout history, demonstrating how the concept has evolved over time. The author argues that 'faith in Christ' was, for Jesus' original followers, a simple expression of trust, a deep affection for a man they believed to be truthful, good, and ultimately divine. The author examines the many ways the concept of faith has expanded since the first century, and how this simple trust came to be entangled in doctrinal controversies and self-contradictory propositions, which has given the term a very different meaning today. The book concludes by emphasizing the importance of faith in Jesus as it was originally conceived, as an expression of trust and affection for a man whose life and teachings embody the highest ideals of humanity.
