Make Us One / Baker, Delbert W, PhD / (PB/1995-1995/B+/USED)

*Condition Note: Book is well used, sturdy and clean.*

At a time when technology has brought the world's populations together in a "global community", the forces of separatism, tribal warfare, ethnic rivalry, and racism seem to be out of control. Sadly, the church of Christ-and that includes the Seventh-day Adventist Church-has not been immune to these gospel-denying forces. Can we get back to the cross, where all men and women are made "one in Christ" (Galatians 2:28)? Where love overrules hate? Where peoples of every nation, kindred, and tongue embrace rather than retreat? Where reconciliation replaces repression?
The answer is Yes. The time is now. Make us one, a multi-authored, round-table discussion of cultural diversity in the church, addresses the global mission of Seventh-day Adventism and challenges its members to remove racial barriers and build bridges of understanding as the cross of Christ demands.
This unique work provides a blueprint and a challenge for Christians to love each other and build relationships in the last days.
