Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Great Dilemma: Christ His Own Witness Or His Own Accuser is a book written by Henry Bickersteth Ottley in 1881. The book explores the question of whether Jesus Christ was his own witness or his own accuser. Ottley delves into the Gospel accounts of Christ's life and teachings, examining the words and actions of Jesus to determine whether they support the idea that he was his own witness, testifying to his divinity and mission, or his own accuser, highlighting his own weaknesses and limitations. The book is divided into two parts. The first part examines the evidence for Christ as his own witness, drawing on passages from the Gospels that suggest Christ's self-awareness of his divine nature and his mission to save humanity. The second part of the book looks at the evidence for Christ as his own accuser, exploring passages that suggest Christ's humility and recognition of his own human limitations. Throughout the book, Ottley engages with theological debates and controversies surrounding the nature of Christ, drawing on the work of other scholars and theologians to support his arguments. The Great Dilemma is a thoughtful and thought-provoking exploration of one of the most fundamental questions of Christianity: who was Jesus Christ, and what was his mission on earth?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
