The Lord by Romano Guardini (English) Paperback Book

Description: The Lord by Romano Guardini, Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger "Monsignor Guardini...has written more than just a life of Jesus. He places that life in the context of history and shows how the teachings of Jesus are related to the whole body of church doctrine and practice." --The New York Times FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The only true and unedited telling of the life of Christ—his life and times, in historical context, but not lacking the psychology behind his physical being and spirit. Unlike other books seeking to strip Jesus story to reveal only the human being, Romano Guardinis The Lord gives the complete story of Jesus Christ—as man, Holy Ghost, and Creator. Pope Benedict XVI lauds Guardinis work as providing a full understanding of the Son of God, away from the prejudice that rationality engenders. Put long-held myths aside and discover the entire truth about Gods only begotten Son. Back Cover "This book is a masterpiece. It embodies the wealth of modern exegetical criticism opened by Protestant theologians like Karl Barth, the greatest traditions of devotio moderna, French seventeenth century thought, the great insights of the Catholic mystics, and the matured speculation of scholasticism. But above all, it is an approach to Christ through the Gospels." --H.A. Reinhold, Commonweal "Guardinis book The Lord has not grown old, precisely because it still leads us to that which is essential, to that which is truly real, Jesus Christ Himself. That is why today this book still has a great mission." --Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI Flap "This book is a masterpiece.
