Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Paul's Joy in Christ: Studies in Philippians
Not merely a man of supreme genius and high cul ture, but one who let himself go completely in spiritual abandonment to the love and life of Jesus. It is small wonder that the hypercritical spirit seeks to discount him as a paranoiac or a Pharisaic bungler who distorted the message of Jesus. Such modern critics fail to understand Paul because of failure to know Jesus as Paul knew Him by rich experience of heart and soul. I confess to a feeling of reverent hesitation as I venture to enter afresh this Holy of Holies of Paul's Life in Christ. Here we see in clear outline, not only Paul's Joy in Life, but his Joy in Death, a message sorely needed by many stricken hearts during these dreadful days of war. Paul was able to see the Face of Christ in Death since Death brought Christ in all His fullness.'
