The Divine Goodness of Jesus

In this book Paul Moser explores Jesus role as Gods filial inquirer and clarifies a method of inquiry regarding Jesus one that offers a compelling explanation regarding his experiential impact and his audiences response. Mosers method values the roles of history and moral/religious experience in inquiry about him and it saves inquirers from distorting biases in their inquiry. His study illuminates Jesus puzzling features including his challenging question for inquirers of him (Who do you say I am?) his distinctive experience of God as father his reference to himself as the son of man his attitude toward his suffering and death his unique role in the kingdom of God and his understanding of his allegedly miraculous signs and of his parables and good news. The book also makes sense of evidence for the reality and the main purpose of Jesus.
