THE CHRISTIAN PRESCRIPTION

 

 

 

Rev. Dr. Robert E.  Donaldson

 

 

PREFACE

What does Christ prescribe ?  Often a doctor will prescribe a medicine based on diagnosis, historical development and design underlying in the body, with effort to restore to normal working mode. So a politician might prescribe for a situation, for a nation, given its ideas and ideals (or his own!). An engineer might do much the same, as in measures for  flood control, with contingency measures.

God has prescribed the design of man, and life, and made it such that Dr Denton in his Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, he states that the life data  might be held in their minaturised form, in a teaspoon. Here is brilliance beyond measure, and life encapsulated in its physical format with something way beyond genius. At best man finds what God put there, and does not invent the laws of space and logic, mathematics and thought, of time and of life; he mere uncovers what logic and order, organisation and contrivance, wit and wisdom put there. Wit is not self-made. Like  all other things, not eternal and self-sufficient entirely, it needs to act to exhibit what it is. In us, the action is manifest. In our plight, the need of more of it is equally manifest, and in the Bible, the reason for our being here, for our plight and the prescription for its cure are all told, and that most clearly.

In this volume, the Christian Prescription as given by  God in the Bible is the theme, and  its  application is our concern.
