George Meisinger on Belief as Persuasion
As I write and re-write my chapters for our upcoming systematic theology, Doctrine for Disciples, I am beginning to cross-reference other theology books. In doing that I came across an excellent chapter on salvation by George Meisinger, called “Salvation by Faith Alone” in The Fundamentals for the Twenty-First Century, edited by Mal Couch.

Si Solomon, Si Tolstoy At Ang Problema Ng Kamatayan At Eternidad, Ang (Mangangaral 3:11)
