W. PAUL JONES - The Recovery of Life's Meaning. Understanding Creation and the Incarnation

London England, Hodder & Stoughton, 1964. First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Very Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Hardback In the face of a seemingly indifferent world, how can any sensible 20th Century man conceive of, and believe in a God of Love who is also Creator? The author looks for the answers in the two basic Christian concepts of Creation and the Incarnation - traditional words which seem technically irrelevant for today's mind, yet which contain in them the very issues with which all of us are burdened and anxious. The sources from which he draws are not theological alone; they include such diverse fields as literature, natural science and philosophy. In its synthesis the book develops an organic view of the whole of life: bringing together man as the image of God and man the sinner; creation and redemption; the world as evil and the world as a Divine-human creative venture; God as Creator and God as Redeemer.
