BUT AS FOR ME: THE QUESTION OF ELECTION FOR GOD'S PEOPLE TODAY gives a deeper meaning to the question: What does it mean to be called by God? Andre Lacocque's latest work is a noteworthy study on the theology of election. This challenging work recovers for Christians and Jews the true identity of the Church. Lacocque explores the spiritual roots of the Christians and Jews. He examines suffering, self-sacrifice, commitment. He considers the questions: How do we truly become the people of God? What does this mean? What are the implications for Judeo-Christian relations? How is God's plan fulfilled? Andre Lacocque's genuine understanding of Jewish theology and ancient literature, and his extensive knowledge of the Old Testament and Christianity, work together to produce this definitive exposition of the election of the people of God. Ministers, students, and biblical scholars will find here an opportunity for spiritual growth and maturity. Lacocque gets to the basic foundations of faith and religion. BUT AS FOR ME leads Christians and Jews to take a full appreciation of the call of the Lord. This outstanding book will have powerful impact on current theological thought.
