      Exploring the depths of human nature in the light of Biblical teaching, author John M Allen carves a straight path through the tangled undergrowth of Greek Gnosticism that has infiltrated the Church today.Explorant les profondeurs de la nature humaine dans le contexte biblique, l'auteur se fraie un chemin franc à travers la jungle de gnosticisme grec qui a infiltré l'Église de nos jours. Étonnant de simplicité, ce livre amène le lecteur au c ur du problème, donnant un aperçu précis des issues en jeu et traitant du sujet sans compromis. Les enfants sont-ils coupables du péché de leurs parents? Pourquoi l'homme pèche-t-il? Un chrétien a-t-il une nature dédoublée? Sommes-nous nés "mauvais"? Notre nature nous force-t-elle à commettre certaines actions, bonnes ou mauvaises? Quel rapport existe-t-il entre un chrétien du 21ème siècle et Adam? Dieu voit-il Jésus lorsqu'il regarde l'Église? Qu'en est-il de la sécurité éternelle inconditionnelle? Un chrétien peut-il être "perdu"? Avec la Bible comme unique source, l'auteur répond à ces questions-ci et bien d'autres, apportant des éclaircissements nécesssaires sur ce sujet si malentendu-la nature de l'homme.

      According to its opening verses, Revelation is intended for all people, in all ages, in all places, so this interpretation won’t need revising as headlines change and years roll by. Because the author’s premise is that scripture interprets scripture, the presentation is biblical in execution, timeless in application. Drawing exclusively from the Old Testament, John Allen expounds the symbolism of Revelation, demonstrating that this is how the earliest readers of this document understood it. Working from these clear guidelines, the author avoids the hype and political overtones that have caused many recent interpretations to date so rapidly. Establishing that it is an understanding of scripture rather than an excess of emotion that enables us to come to grips with what God is saying to His Church, he shows that this last great book of the Bible exalts Jesus and declares His people triumphant in this world. This publication is a must for all those weary of books about Revelation that are redundant by the time they go to press.
