Description: Paul the Apostle: At the Edge by Faith is a comprehensive, absorbing study of the Great Apostle against the historical background and milieu of his age. Every event of Paul’s life recorded in the Book of Acts, along with all that he wrote, has been carefully examined and expounded. The study is not a defense or criticism of Paul, but an in-depth study of his life and thought with the aim of knowing Paul as he really was.
Throughout the volume the edge-by-faith principle by which Paul lived as a Christian is apparent. Paul ventured as far as he could by faith in everything he undertook. The thought of turning back for fear of being conquered was totally out of character from all that we know of Paul. "I will let nothing master me" (1Cor. 6:12b) was the resolute cry of Paul all throughout his life based on the power and love of Christ, whom he knew so well.
Anyone desiring to know the Great Apostle, whose life and epistles comprise more than one half of the New Testament, will enthusiastically welcome this scholarly work—very readable and highly informative. Rest assured that upon reading it Paul will come alive and upon completing it you will know the kind of man Paul really was.
