The title of this book exactly explains its purpose and view point. This is not a book about the Bible, but is intended as a guide, through personal study and group discussion, to a direct study of the New Testament record to find how Jesus met life questions. The topic or problem of each' chapter is stated in present-day form. The individual students and the group mem bers are challenged to consider for themselves both the present day issue and the issue Jesus faced, to see how Jesus met the problem. Each one is asked to reach his own conclusion as to what Jesus' ideal really was, and to apply this heroically in rela tion to the present -day problems as he meets them.
It is hoped that those who use the book will read and study the records of Jesus' life eagerly, open -mindedly, as if coming to them for the first time. Earnest attempt has been made not to bias in any way. The thinking and conclusions of those who use the book. There is no particular set of ideas regarding the life and teachings of Jesus which the author is attempting to set forth. The purpose is to get others to form ideas of their own rather than to adopt those which may appeal to him.
Only such modern questions have been introduced into each chapter as seem in their real 1ssue and problem to be the same as Jesus faced and upon which it seems fair to go to the life of Jesus for direct help as to his viewpoint. A major question at present is whether Jesus' ideals and principles will really work in the modern world. In answering this question, too often Jesus' life and teachings are warped to confirm some opinion that a person. Already holds, or some current idea of that for which Jesus stood is accepted. An earnest attempt has been made here to stimulate open-minded reading of the records, so that each ih dividual or group may come to his own viewpoint as to Jesus' attitude and idea on the problem in hand.
Each chapter has three sections. After a brief introductory statement of the problem or question of the chapter, the Bible references are printed out. The Moffatt translation is used, not as a substitute for the use of one' s own Testament, but for com parison and to bring the challenge of a new translation. This is followed by Suggestions for Personal Study. These are ques tions upon the Scripture, intended to lead the reader to dis cover the issue or situation in each reference and to find the big ideas for which Jesus stood. These Suggestions, in seven sections, can be used for daily study in the Morning Watch or followed In a study of the chapter at a single sitting if preferred.
