The Mystery of God's Holiness - Clifford L. Swanson M. Div. - Bog

The Mystery of God's Holiness: God's Good News for the Gentiles contains two threads that run throughout the entire Bible. It illuminates for the reader the origins and spread of God's holiness, from the day God told Moses that his feet were standing on holy ground to the time the creatures in John's book of Revelation cry, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty." It also sheds light on God's extension of the good news from Palestine to all nations of the earth. For when Jesus Christ confronted Paul, and he was converted on the Road to Damascus, Jesus appointed Paul as his apostle to the Gentiles. So Paul devoted the rest of his life to spreading the Good News and founding Christian churches throughout the Roman Empire. The result is that this Good News has gone from the Roman Empire to Europe, to America, and around the entire world. This book also provides what one might call a minicourse on church history, from the time of Jesus to the present day.
