Publisher's Synopsis
Out of the reformation emerged five doctrines that would shape the protestant church for centuries. These five doctrines are: 1.Sola Scriptura - Scripture Alone 2.Solus Christus - Christ Alone 3.Sola Gratia - Grace Alone 4.Sola Fide - Faith Alone 5.Soli Deo Gloria - The Glory of God Alone. As these five doctrines counterattacked the perverse distortions of biblical truth in the reformer's day, they can do the same for ours. These pillars of our faith establish foundational truths that if rejected, will result in catastrophic peril to this generation, and sadly, even more so to the generations to come. R. P. Kennedy looks into the future and is driven by the Spirit to take up the Sword the Spirit would wield in one hand, even as he raises a trowel in the other. Wading through that which would bring conflict and stagnation rather than confluence and continuation, he preaches with that sword, prophesies with it, to the four winds of the earth in his generation. With the trowel that only a faithful steward is given, Dr. Kennedy lays the tempered mortar of revelation placing living stone against living stone. As the Lord's temple is continuing to be built in our day through one disciple at a time, finding communion and purpose within the household of faith, this man is a foreman on the construction site, fulfilling his assignment among his people. Within the phrases and words shared within, you will hear the voice of God and find the illumination of Christ through His servant. You are entering classic truth that has been uncovered and refreshed for our day. R. P. Kennedy's words reflect the heart of God in doctrine and presence, Word, and power, that you and I need to hear right now. This book is more than a reminder; it is sure footing in slippery times.
