Look Inside: b'Perfect Sinners'

“This is a thoroughly helpful book by a pastor who loves people and spends a lot of time listening to them and hearing the questions they actually ask (which are not always the questions we pastors want them to ask!). Matt Fuller engages the reader with a light touch and earthy pastoral realism, behind which lie a clear theological mind and careful study.” Christopher Ash, Writer-in-Residence at Tyndale House and Ministry Trainer at St. Andrew the Great, Cambridge and author of “Zeal Without Burnout” “Christians struggle if we fail to believe in both the wonderful status given us forever when we are born again and the fact that the Lord responds to how we then live. Matt Fuller’s book is an accessible, downto-earth, sustained reflection on how we can keep these important truths together.” Garry Williams, Director of The John Owen Centre, London Theological Seminary “Matt Fuller has done a superb job in taking us to the point where our unconditional, unearned and secure status in Christ meets our dynamic, progressive transformation in Christ-likeness. This book is clearly written, drenched in pastoral concern, answering real questions and coloured with helpful illustrations. It’s the book I wanted to write— and it’s a book I loved reading.” Ray Galea, Lead Pastor, St Alban’s MBM, Australia “How can we be sure that our status before God is unchanging (we are justified) when our personal walk with the Lord is so erratic (we still sin)? If Christ has paid the penalty for all our sin, then why do we need to confess it? With penetrating insight and a pastor’s heart, Matt mines the treasure of the precious doctrine of justification by faith alone and encourages us to keep working out our salvation, secure in the knowledge that we are God’s children if we trust him to the end.” Carrie Sandom, Associate Minister for Women at St John’s, Tunbridge Wells and Director of Women’s Ministry at the Proclamation Trust, London
