Basic Christianity
Book • 2019
Published in 1958, 'Basic Christianity' by John Stott is a seminal work in Christian literature.
The book is structured into four parts: it begins by scrutinizing the identity of Jesus, including his claims about his divine nature and his resurrection.
The second part delves into the universality of sin and its consequences, using the Ten Commandments to illustrate humanity's moral obligations.
The third part outlines what Christ accomplished through his sacrificial death on the cross, emphasizing the significance of the crucifixion in understanding salvation.
The final part examines how individuals should respond to these truths, calling for a genuine renunciation of the old self and a radical commitment to Christ.
The book has been updated over the years to reflect changes in language and is now part of the IVP Signature Collection.
