JOHN STOTT

"El discípulo cristiano es una entrega personal y radical a Jesucristo y no puede ser de otro modo. Precisamente esta radicalidad, según afirma el autor de este libro, es la que con urgencia necesita nuestro mundo de hoy.John Stott, ofrece una pertinente reflexion para aquellos que estan interesados en evaluar la calidad de su relacion con Jesucristo en torno a la siguiente pregunta: ¿cuales son las dimensiones e implicancias de las afirmaciones JESUS ES EL SEÑOR tanto para la vida personal, para la iglesia como para la sociedad del siglo XXI?"

Fue el 6 de marzo de 1927 cuando Bertrand Russell dio un discurso en Battersea Town Hall, al sur de Londres, titulado Por qué no soy cristiano. En su momento causó cierta sensación, en parte debido a la reconocida elocuencia del conferenciante y, en parte, debido a su absoluta franqueza. Treinta años despues, su discurso se publico en una coleccion de sus ensayos. Ocupaba el capitulo 1 y daba su titulo a todo el libro. En su prefacio, Bertrand Russell escribio: Creo que todas las grandes religiones del mundo son falsas y dañinas (P.XI) Al escribir este breve libro titulado Por que soy cristiano, no pretendo rebatir punto por punto los argumentos de Bertrand Russell, porque reconozco su brillantez como filosofo y matematico, ganador de un premio Nobel de literatura y heraldo de la logica y la libertad. Pero tambien reconozco que deben presentarse ciertos argumentos a favor del cristianismo que Bertrand Russell no presento y que, quiza, ni siquiera considero.En su prefacio, John Stott escribe: No porque la fe cristiana sea atractiva, sino porque es verdadera.Nuestra nostalgia de por vida, nuestro anhelo de reunirnos con un algo en el universo del cual ahora mismo nos sentimos separados, nuestro deseo de estar en el lado de dentro de una puerta que siempre hemos visto desde afuera: estas no son ilusiones neuroticas, sino el mas claro indicio de nuestra verdadera situacion. C.S. Lewis

We live in times of insecurity.New nations are coming to birth. Social and political patterns are evolving. Violence, terrorism, and war threaten the very foundations of civilization. These external insecurities are reflected in the internal world of the mind and of the spirit. There is widespread distrust of Christian faith and a preference for agnosticism or free thought. Many church members are confused and uncertain.Against this background, to read the letters of John is to enter another world marked by assurance, knowledge, confidence, and boldness. The certainty of Christian people is twofold: objective (that the Christian religion is true) and subjective (that they have been born of God and possess eternal life). Both are expounded by John, who takes it for granted that this double assurance is right and healthy.
