NOTES

Jesus in the Divine Providence takes a novel approach to understanding the significance of Jesus from both historical and providential perspectives. The centuries of preparation for a Messiah through the establishment of the chosen nation of Israel are explained, as are the circumstances of Jesus' life that led to his crucifixion by the very people chosen to receive him. The consequences of this rejection shaped the religion that emerged from his life and teaching: Christianity. What are the obligations of Christians in the light of Jesus' crucifixion? What has been the end goal of the many stages of evolution and reformation in the faith? What is the proper Christian attitude to Jews? How should they understand the rise of Islam, and what should their attitude to Muslims be? How can they best relate to the non-Abrahamic faiths? How should they respond to the challenges posed by Atheistic Marxism and Neo-Marxism? And how can they guide science to fulfill a positive role in the world? Finally, why have Christians had to wait so long for a second advent of Christ?
