The present work is to raise conviction in Christian religious circles that the Church (once again) need to embrace the work of Christ who brings surprising and powerful renewal in Post-Christendom times in His own right through Scripture - that proclaims
Christ; Spirit - that transforms us to the likeness of Christ; and Submission (of the Church) - to the call of Christ. The author also asserts that Culture, Church and Christ are what is at stake when dealing with post-Christendom.
