I just read your article “Christ: Son of God” and wanted to share how much I appreciate the clarity and devotion you bring to this profound truth. Your writing beautifully highlights the multifaceted nature of Christ not just as Son of God, but as Light, Peace, Truth, and Love grounded in Scripture and expressed with heartfelt conviction. Thank you for offering such a meaningful reflection that inspires deeper faith and encourages readers to see Jesus in both Word and life.
Dear Thomas, thank you so much for your very kind and thoughtful comment. It made tears come into my eyes. You might know that I was recently subjected to a really aggressive attack by a theologian. You have helped to restore my faith that Christians can be kind, and that being kind is a really healthy and vital part of our faith. With very best wishes, blessings and thanks, from Ruth xxx
