"Since its initial release over a decade ago, Not Every Spirit has continued to serve as an important and unique contribution to the understanding of Christian dogmatics - not in terms of what the Christian faith does believe, but, in fact, what it does not believe. Updated for today's audience, Morse again reminds us that to believe in God is not to believe everything, but rather it is to test what truly is of God and what is not. To trust everything without awareness of what is untrustworthy is not genuine faith in God. The presence of faithful disbelief in the Church gives the Church's teaching and practice its timelessness in every cultural situation."--BOOK JACKET.
