註釋This complete study of fasting moves through all the relevant passages in both Old and New Testaments, then surveys various periods of church history, and then draws balanced, well-supported conclusions with special reference to the doctrines of sanctification and longing for Christ's return. Most importantly, its conclusions are practical and provide a framework for contemporary Christian fasting. Christian fasting must ultimately be centered on Christ, reflect proper ways of engaging the human body in sanctification, and remember the corporate nature of the believer' community. It is hoped that this book will set fasting in an appropriate, positive theological context, so that it's biblical and Christian heritage might be expressed in renewed spiritual expressions.
