Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - What is the gospel It seems like a simple question, yet it has been known to incite some heated responses, even in the church. How are we to formulate a clear, biblical understanding of the gospel Tradition, reason, and experience all leave us ultimately disappointed. If we want answers, we must turn to the Word of God.
