In This e-book Dr Raven gives his answers to two crucial questions. What was Jesus's message, in its abiding essence? Did St Paul corrupt it --- or (as Dr Raven believes) was St Paul led on by his own experience to understand with a magnificent new breadth the revolutionary, implications of Jesus for the life of the world, implications which have been, given a new urgency by the spiritual crisis of humanity in the 20th century?

This e-book sums up a lifetime's thought by one of the best known authors and preachers in modem Britain. Dr Raven was Regius Professor of Divinity, Cambridge, from 1932 to 1950, and served as Vice-Chancellor of the University. He has also been Chaplain to the Crown since 1919, and is a Fellow of the British Academy. Specializing in the relations between religion and science, he has never been afraid to challenge conventional orthodoxy. In this book he is characteristically bold in taking us back to the origins of the Christian way of life.
