No title Pioneer for Israel's Messiah

Bruggen, Jakob Van (1936-...)

Pioneer for Israel's Messiah Jakob Van Bruggen - U.S.A P & R 2005 - 411tr. paperback 23cm

This detailed yet eminently readable description of Paul's life clearly shows that all sources converge to present a pioneer life: adventurous, unpredictable, nonlinear, full of risks. An analysis of Paul's place in the development of the Christian church shows that Paul was not a marginal figure, operating out of reaction. He was instead a driven pioneer for a Christianity that is aware of Christ's kingship, and that realizes it is not a new religion but the fulfillment of the messianic promises made to Abraham.
