The Body of Christ: A Biblical Understanding of the Church

by Bruinsma, Reinder

Overview

Reinder Bruinsma begins his book on the church with this clear, straightforward definition: the church is the body of Christ—God’s people. Bruinsma believes this doctrine has not been adequately wrestled with today. His readable and informative treatment of this vital topic fills a vital gap in Adventist literature. His far-ranging look at the doctrine of the church moves from Old and New Testament foundations up through church government and controversial issues such as ordination and church discipline. In his conclusion, Bruinsma outlines the mission and future of the church. His fourfold approach ensure that every facet of the doctrine is explored in detail. This thought-provoking discussion challenges those who call themselves God’s people to examine their current understanding of the church and to prayerfully consider their roles as part of the body of Christ.
