Book Overview

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus puts aside his usual parables and speaks plainly in language anyone can understand.

Like Francis of Assisi and others, Arnold chose to live out Jesus' teachings by embracing their self- sacrificing demands.

Salt and Light:Living the Sermon on the Mount

The book arrived in a very timely fashion, in good condition and at a reasonable price. Thank You

This book is profound, unique and uplifting.

Eberhard Arnold is one of the forgotten spiritual leaders of the 20th century. That is sad because his books are as timely now as when they were written nearly 70 years ago, many of them in protest against the creeping tide of Nazism and fascism. Salt and Light: Living the Sermon on the Mount is passionate in its insistence that Christianity is not a religion for dilettantes. To accept Christ and to really live His message is to risk giving everything up for love. Hate, fear, violence and injustice are not just crimes against humanity, they oppose the very organic fabric of creation. Arnold, in Salt and Light, makes it clear that Christians have a special obligation to preserve and cherish life, to peacefully oppose injustice and war and to spread a gosepl of love---not because it is "moral" and "ethical" to do those things, but because Christians in their faith (salt and light) possess the very essence of life, Christ. Read Arnold, and your relationship with God will change forever. Salt and Light is a classic.
