The Mysteries of Christianity
From the Introduction by Sinclair B. Ferguson
'Mystery' is a biblical word that over the years has been
reduced in meaning. Taking on an atmosphere very different to the sense in
which it was used for example by the apostle Paul. It is important therefore in
opening these pages to realize that in discussing Christianity's
mysteries Crawford is dealing with realities that can be known by us only if
God himself reveals them. They come to us recorded in the pages of Scripture,
not as a result of our own abilities to engage in reasoning. Thus The Mysteries
of Christianity is in essence an exposition and defence of Christianity as a
supernatural, Trinitarian faith at the heart of which lie the mysteries of the
incarnation, the atonement, the sovereign work of the Holy Spirit, and the
marvels of divine providence.
