Soul Freedom

The Baptist tradition stands in great peril of losing the cherished principles of the free exercise of religion, the freedom from political interference with faith, and the right of self-determination in all matters related to religion.The authors discuss the importance of the Bible in the Baptist faith and the responsibility of people for their actions regarding church, family, and beliefs. Our relationship with God is an individual responsibility. It is God to whom we are ultimately responsible. Soul freedom, all freedom, and responsibility are God's supreme gift to humanity. The dignity and respect afforded to persons come from God as revealed in Scripture.Soul Freedom contains essays that examine considerably controversial issues. This book comes at a time when the Baptist commitment to soul freedom feeds the deeper hunger of the hearts of millions of persons seeking authenticity in religion.
