Can We Still Follow Jesus? (Classic Reprint): A Study of the Teaching of Jesus in Its Modern Applications: A Study of the Teaching of Jesus in Its Modern Applications (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Can We Still Follow Jesus? tackles how Jesus’ teaching fits the modern world and Christian ethics today. This insightful study examines whether the Kingdom of God as preached by Jesus can still shape moral life, duty, and faith in contemporary times. It weighs competing scholarly views and returns to the Gospel message to ask what Jesus’s words mean for love, forgiveness, and sacrifice now.
The book frames a long debate about how much Jesus intended a future, supernatural Kingdom versus a call to present, practical righteousness. It argues that Christian morality goes beyond old assumptions and urges readers to consider humility, mercy, and selfless action as core traits. The discussion moves from theory to concrete implications for discipleship, community, and personal conduct.
- How faith, duty, and immortality relate to everyday moral choices
- Why forgiveness and self-sacrifice are central to Christian ethics
- How martyrdom and endurance can reflect moral strength, not weakness
- Where asceticism and self-denial fit in a holistic view of discipleship
Ideal for readers of Christian theology and practical faith, this edition invites fresh reflection on what it means to follow Jesus today.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines whether religious faith can inspire or destroy morality.
