Down to Earth

In this book, Dr Booth seeks to assist potential followers of Jesus who might be deterred by a scepticism about the supernatural elements, such as the Virgin Birth and the Resurrection. The author believes that Jesus was not God but was inspired by God to reveal God’s will for Man and how Man should behave. This belief controls his interpretation of God’s communication with Man, and many of the Gospel stories such as the healings and the transfiguration. The relationship of Free Christianity to Unitarianism and other divisions within the Christian Church and to Islam is also explored.

Roger Booth is a retired solicitor who also taught law at the University of Buckingham. His degrees in theology are from King’s College, London, and his degree in law is from Leeds University. He was also formerly minister at The Chapel in the Garden, Bridport, Dorset, England.

In aceasta carte, Dr. Booth cauta sa ajute potentialii adepti ai lui Isus care ar putea fi descurajati de un scepticism cu privire la elementele supranaturale, cum ar fi Nasterea Fecioara si Invierea. Autorul considera ca Isus nu era Dumnezeu, ci a fost inspirat de Dumnezeu pentru a dezvalui voia lui Dumnezeu pentru Om si cum ar trebui sa se comporte Omul.
