- Named a "Book of the Century" by Christianity Today
Who is Jesus Christ? While Jesus and his teaching continue to hold appeal, many people question the plausibility or relevance of the Christian faith. Is it reasonable to believe that Jesus was truly divine? If so, what does it mean for us? John Stott's clear, classic book examines the historical facts on which Christianity stands. If Jesus is not who he said he was, and if he did not do what he said he had come to do, the whole structure of Christianity crumbles. With thoughtful, pastoral guidance Stott presents a biblical portrait of Christ and the evidence that supports it. He then considers the human need for salvation, how we should respond to the gospel, and what it looks like to become and live as a Christian. For more than sixty years,
Basic Christianity has been a landmark resource that has helped millions of readers understand the gospel. With updated language and study questions, this classic is now available as part of the IVP Signature Collection.
