The Normal Christian Birth

Basing his study on the New Testament, David Pawson advocates a synthesis of the ''liberal'' emphasis on repentance, the ''evangelical'' on faith, the ''sacramental'' on baptism and the ''pentecostal'' on the Spirit. He then relates these ''spiritual dooes'' to the concepts of conversion and regeneration.

The Normal Christian Birth looks at crucial and controversial texts, challenging traditional interpretations. The final section on evangelistic counselling questions the adequacy of the typical ''sinner''s prayer'' approach. Drawing from scripture and experience, David Pawson gives many practical tips on helping potential discipes to repent, believe, be baptised and receive the Spirit.
