JESUS CHRIST: GOD-MAN - Vital Christianity

Therefore, it is also the aim of this book to equip the faithful in their apologetic task.
God's people must know whom they worship and serve. This implies a thorough knowledge of
Scripture since it is here that Jesus Christ is revealed. This is crucial if Christians are to "contend
for the faith that was once for all entrusted to the saints" (Jude 3). This also means that we as
Christians must "always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks us to give the
reason for the hope we have" (1 Pe 3:15).
It is further within the purview of this book to engage nonbelievers. By presenting a true
picture of Jesus Christ and explaining the orthodox position about who He was and is, it is my
hope that the rationality and logic of the presentation—the ring of truth—will be compelling
enough to prompt their consideration in affirming Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
