The Mark of the Christian
Francis A Schaeffer
View Large Image
In our era of global violence and sectarian intolerance, the church needs to hear anew the challenge of this book. Decades ago Francis Schaeffer exhorted, "Love - and the unity it attests to - is the mark Christ gave Christians to wear before the world. Only with this mark may the world know that Christians are indeed Christians and that Jesus was sent by the Father."
More than ever, the church needs to respond compassionately to a needy world. More than ever, we need to show the Mark.
- Publisher Christians have not always presented a pretty picture to the world. Too often they have failed to show the beauty of love, the beauty of Christ, the holiness of God. And the world has turned away. Is there then no way to make the world look again--this time at true Christianity? Must Christians continue to stand with arms folded, presenting a tarnished image of God -- a shattereed body of Christ? Francis A. Schaeffer meets these questions head-on.
