About this Book
In what we might call the psychological
age, mankind is seeking to know itself as the human race. Individually
man is also seeking to know himself, as a person. The human race is confronted by acceleration
in technology, the rapidly changing electronic media, the continuous
rise and fall of governments. It is time of rapid changes in economics
and social living Can man find, let alone keep his identity when the
landmarks are so rapidly swept away? What anyway is a personal identity? This
book seeks to give answers to some of these questions. Man's identity
consists in those things with which he is identified by his own will.
In Biblical terms his identity is given him by God who creates every
man a unique person. Man can go against this identity and suffer as a
consequence or he can accept it and develop richly. To do this he must
keep his integrity against the adverse tides which flow about him This
can be called a thoughtful book. It is, nonetheless, exciting. It may
well help a man to discover his true identity. The Reverend Geoffrey Bingham, an
Anglican clergyman, and a teacher of interstate and international experience,
has been a missionary with the Church Missionary Society, Principal of
the Pakistan Bible Institute, of the Bible College of South Australia,
and Executive Director of New Creation Teaching Ministry
at Coromandel in South Australia.
