Knowing the First Person of the Trinity in God’s Life and Ours

While Christianity has always focused on Christ, other Persons of the Trinity have been neglected and misunderstood. The Charismatic movement has remedied that for the third Person, but the Father is still ignored. This book explores reasons for this, as well as the nature and work of the Father, which is distinct from the other Persons, although they are absolutely equal. Although written for ordinary Christians, professional theologians will find stimulation in this book’s portrayal of the Trinity. Contrary to popular belief, the Father is not creator, but his wisdom does underlie it; although not Father of all, he becomes the Father of Christians. More importantly, fuller knowledge of God should benefit the Christian life of individuals and through this, the church and society.
