The Biblical Doctrine of Salvation: Why Man Needs to be Saved, and How God Accomplishes the Task - Paperback

by Sam A. Smith (Author)

Sam Smith discusses man's most basic problem of sin and separation from God, and what God has determined to do about it. How did we get into this predicament to start with? Why would a just God hold us responsible for what our first parents did? Did God put a stumbling block in man's way in the Garden? Why do men have a universal propensity to sin? What does it mean to get "saved"? What about those who renounce their faith? If God really wanted to save men by grace, why did he give the Law? What does God expect us to contribute to our salvation? Is it possible for a saved person to become lost again? These are just a few of the powerful questions answered in this book.
