Overview
A 2002 Logos Association Best Book award winner!
Everyone has something to say about Jesus.
Sorting through the numerous books of recent years, you may find yourself lost in a thicket of viewpoints, some troubling to faith, some puzzling to the intellect. But John Stott, one of the outstanding evangelical voices of the last half century, offers in The Incomparable Christ an enriching vision of Jesus that defies measurment.
In this newly Americanized, paperback edition Stott invites you to view Jesus from four perspectives:
The Original Jesus: How the New Testament witnesses to Jesus in the Gospels, Acts and the Letters
The Ecclesiastical Jesus: How the church has presented Jesus historically, from Justin Martyr, Benedict and Anselm, to Thomas à Kempis, Martin Luther and Thomas Jefferson, to Gustavo Guitiérrez, N. T. Wright, and the Edinburgh and Lausanne missionary confessions of the twentieth century
The Influential Jesus: How people from St. Francis to Tolstoy, from Gandhi to Roland Allen, from Father Damien to William Wilberforce have taken inspiriation from him
The Eternal Jesus: How he continually challenges today's men and women through ten visions from the book of Revelation
This is the Jesus who is like no other—worthy of your worship, your confession and your obedience as you follow him into the future.
