The Christian Understanding of History

Portada
James Clarke & Co., 2002 - 306 pàgines
In a scientific age we are becoming historically conscious and realising how many of our contemporary problems cannot be solved without an understanding of their historical perspective. The author explains here how the conception of world-history is routed in Christianity and how biblical examination can help to explain our history.
