The Purpose-Driven God: Critical Issues That Underlie God's Passion for the Completion of His Global Mission

Compelled by his own character, God is passionate to make himself known to people from every tribe, language, and nation on earth. In The Purpose-Driven God, author Dennis D. Cochrane explores this global mission and the importance it holds for God. Cochrane identifies five matters of supreme importance to God: - his desire for personal oneness with humankind; - universal worship for himself because he seeks only what rightly and exclusively belongs to him; - his promises made with an oath, to bless people in all nations through Abraham's descendants, ultimately Christ; - the inheritance God promised his Son: "I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession."; and, - the Lord's compassion for humankind in their temporal and eternal needs.
