In his new book, Jesus Only, Desmond Ford teaches that God came, in Jesus Christ, to live and walk among people in fulfillment of a promise he made one thousand five hundred years earlier.
Jesus was the only person that claimed to be God who was regarded as sane by his contemporaries. While the miracles done by Jesus seem extraordinary, they are exactly what one would expect God to do if he came to Earth.
Ford, a reformist theologian, shows the reliability of the Gospel records about Jesus by revealing the hand of God behind these records in ways few are aware of.
As a gospel revivalist, Ford bids his readers to turn to Jesus for the spiritual resources to help them, not only through life's crises, but also to experience peace and joy every moment of every day.
"Today's society is mainly secular but secularism has neither met our basic needs nor solved our deepening moral deterioration... A lot of people do not have the spiritual resources to help them cope with a major disaster in their lives. It is only Jesus who can fill their empty hearts and give them those resources," he says.
Insightful and compelling, Jesus Only is a treasure trove of gems that will inspire readers to praise God for his great love and wisdom.
