The gospel of Christ is the gospel of life, and the Christian�s defining reality. Yet the shedding of innocent blood, primarily through abortion, has now marked an entire generation. Innocent Blood explores a series of questions so as to reveal vital connections between the gospel and the call to defend the unborn. These questions include: -What does the Bible mean when it says that �life is in the blood�? -What does the Bible say about blood-guilt? How is it that we are all stained by it and accountable for it even though few of us have taken a human life? -What remedy does God provide for the guilt of shedding innocent blood? -What are we to do when confronted with the shedding of innocent blood, and where does our courage to take action come from? -What is the link between protecting the innocent and proclaiming good news to the guilty? Not a book on social issues per se, nor a book on missions, Innocent Blood integrates the two and calls us to courageously challenge the powers of death with the gospel of life.
