Salvation

What Every Catholic Should Know

De: Michael Patrick Barber

Narrado por: Michael Patrick Barber

At every Sunday mass, Catholics confess that Jesus came down from heaven ''for us men and for our salvation". But what does ''salvation'' mean? In this robust and accessible book, Scripture scholar and theologian Michael Patrick Barber provides a thorough, deeply Catholic, and deeply biblical answer.

He deftly tackles this complex topic, unpacking what the New Testament teaches about salvation in Christ, detailing what exactly salvation is and what it is not. In easy and listenable prose, he explains what the cross, the church, and the trinity have to do with salvation.

While intellectually stimulating, Salvation: What Every Catholic Should Know is deeply spiritual, and at its core, it is the salvific message that God is love, and his love is one of transformation and redemption.

Series summary: The new What Every Catholic Should Know series is intended for the average faithful Catholic who wants to know more about Catholic faith and culture.

The authors in this series take a panoramic approach to the topic of each book aimed at a nonspecialist but enthusiastic readership/listenership. Forthcoming titles planned for this series include: literature, salvation, mercy, history, art, music, and philosophy.

Sound and scriptural

Very sound and scriptural. Helped me a great deal to understand grace, faith, and salvation.

Loved the detail and all the Bible quotes!

So well written and read! Michael did a fabulous job of detailing out all of the works that Christ did on the cross to save us from our sin. So well thought out and displayed for the reader to understand. This book comes highly recommended.

No Mean Feat

Thank you so much Dr. Barber for this magnificent work. Being a recent convert to the Catholic Church and coming from an evangelical background, I much appreciate the focus on salvation as a process as opposed to a one-and-done-are-you-saved event. Importantly, you have confirmed that, for initial salvation, the theology is the same: we are saved by grace, full stop. I am also a big Audible fan. The fact that you personally recorded your work is commendable. No one else, no matter the training, could have delivered your message better. Bravo!

Amazing book!

Wonderful book on salvation great read for Catholics and non Catholics alike! Read by the Author, certainly goes on my list of books to recommend!

Must Read Especially if you Have both Catholic and Protestant Friends

Those is a must read. Allow yourself to grow in the understanding of Christ’s true teaching on salvation. It will explain why the Calvinist and other Protestant views on salvation are lacking and misunderstand scripture.
