Who Are We to Judge? We have met the Pharisees, and they are...us. That's because we are all slaves to self-righteousness and judgmentalism. It's built into human nature. We set "the standard"--the list of do's and don'ts--to which others must adhere. Then we associate this predetermined behavior with righteousness and declare, "A 'Christian' wouldn't do that." In this book, John Fischer points out that Jesus defined the truth in such a way as to leave no one righteous--not one. We cannot be made right before God by being "better" than anyone else. Instead, by recognizing and laying aside the Pharisee in all of us, we can embrace the grace, gratitude, and joy of the spirit-filled life.
A splendid piece of work, charting a new direction for the evangelical church...written with a dazzling combination of intelligence and passion. At the close of the 20th century Fischer's work will be hailed as a linchpin of evangelical reform and renewal."Brennan ManningJohn Fischer at his best! Lively, insightful, wise-solid biblical guidance for pilgrims making their way in a world that, for all its brokenness, God still loves."Richard Mouw, President, Fuller Theological SeminaryWhether or not America's Christian subculture" will be able to understand Fischer's effective blend of fresh experience, unexpected insight, and gospel realities is a real question. But, thank goodness, here it is."Mark A. Noll, McMannis Professor of Christian Thought, Wheaton College Many of us have been encouraged to have a shrink wrapped" Christian experience that has kept us pure - but unused. This book is a testimony to the power of the Christian life that engages with ideas, culture, inner cities, politics and economics and makes a difference."Fred Smith, President, Fourth Partner FoundationLike his apostolic namesake, John Fischer knows that love, not resentment, is the hallmark of Christian peoplehood. His book comes at a time when, because of the way the world is changing, the Church must reassess what it means to be in the world and not of it."Ken Meyers,host and producer of the 'Mars Hill Tapes', author of 'All God's Children' and 'Blue Suede Shoes: Christians and Popular Culture'
A lifetime in the making, this book reflects on Fischer's famous lyrics, through which he shows how simple a relationship with God can be: love and be loved. Fischer creates a powerful and profound message that will motivate new generations to seek God.
Identifying a "safety zone" of Christian-sanctified schools, television, radio, and activism, a call to greater action urges Christians to break away from easier practices to reconnect with non-believers, engage in acts of love and compassion, and build a greater dependence on Christ. Original.
"Free from sarcasm and ridicule, Real Christians Don't Dance challenges the evangelical Church to identify true Christianity from the sub-culture that has developed around it, to discover what is real obedience and love. Readers may discover in their lives more tradition than truth, more Christianity than Christ, more fundamentalism than faith, more law than love." -- Back cover
