The Silence of God - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Silence of God is Robert Anderson's interpretation of the message of the Apostle Paul, delivered in the lucid tone for which the author is renowned. This edition includes both of the author's appendices.

Anderson considers why the heavens, and God within them, are silent to all but a tiny number of believers. Beginning his narration with stark allusions to the ensuing genocide in Armenia - in which many of the victims were Christian - Anderson does not shy away from the cruelty of the world, and the crimes perpetrated by man against man. We must not withdraw from the world, the author posits, but must live in it carrying a virtuous and Christian mentality despite its hardships.

Revised and reprinted many times, The Silence of God was one of Anderson's most appreciated commentaries. A clear and thoughtful presentation of the New Testament wisdom which remains completely in touch with the day-to-day realities of our world, Anderson offers both spiritual clarity and no-nonsense wisdom.

As a high-ranking police detective and commissioner working in London's Scotland Yard, Sir Robert Anderson famously applied the reasoning he used to solve crimes to various religious topics. Above all, Anderson was a committed Christian whose Biblical scholarship placed him equal to some of the greatest theologians and academics of his era.
