Summary: A Seal of Authenticity
Comment: The Divine Yes is crucial to understanding the life and ministry of E. Stanley Jones. For more than 60 years Jones, a Methodist Missionary & Evangelist, was a voice of reason in a world that was often on the brink. He was a personal friend of Gandhi, had an influence on Martin Luther King, Jr., and preached before the crowned heads & political leaders of East and West. Though respected for many things, he was best known for his desire to bring every facet of life in this world under the Lordship of Christ. It was he who declared that, though many matters of religious faith were "points of question," Jesus Christ himself was the "Point of Decision." He wrote that when we decide what we believe about he creation of the world, or who wrote the Pentateuch, we don't really decide anything. God decided those things long ago. By contrast, when we decide about Jesus Christ---we make a real decisions, for we decide something personal, something existential.
Jones made his decision for Christ at an early age. He lived it until his death in the early 1970's in his mid-eighties. The Divine Yes was written after a stroke that left him partially paralyzed, and his speech severely restricted. Jones said that, thanks to Christ, he was still the same person after the stroke as before. He said, "Since I can no longer preach a sermon, I must be a sermon." The Divine Yes sums up his ministry in more ways that one. It is Stanley Jones personal, life-affirming "Yes" to the Divine Yes that has already sounded in the person of Jesus Christ. As the scripture says, "For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why we utter the Amen through him, to the glory of God." 2nd Corinthians. 1:20
A book well worth reading. A man well worth remembering.
Worth Green, Th.M., D.Min.
