En su libro, Pablo: apóstol del corazón liberado, F. F. Bruce nos comparte de las riquezas que él mismo ha recibido mediante el estudio de Pablo. Sus estudios han sido compilados por más de medio siglo durante su etapa de estudiante y profesor de literatura antigua. El autor confiesa no haber dedicado tanto tiempo a ningún otro autor como a Pablo. Su intención en este libro es tratar los temas principales del Apóstol en su contexto histórico, tal como él mismo lo hiciera en sus cartas. A F. F. Bruce no se le ocurre autor alguno, antiguo o moderno, cuyo estudio sea tan maravillosamente gratificante. Esto se debe a varios aspectos de su polifacético carácter: el calor de su personalidad, su gran estatura intelectual, la estimulante liberación que produce su evangelio de la gracia redentora, la fuerza con la que predicaba este evangelio por todo el mundo. El propósito del autor al escribir este libro es, por tanto, compartir el tesoro que él mismo descubrió en la vida del amado Apostol Pablo. Acerca de este libro.

Paul: Apostle of the Heart Set Free
In his book, Paul: Apostle of the Heart Set Free, F. F. Bruce shares with us the riches that he himself has received through studying Paul. His studies have been compiled for more than half a century during his time as a student and professor of ancient literature. The author confesses that he did not spend as much time with any other author as with Paul. His intention in this book is to speak of the main teachings of the Apostle in their context at the time, just as he himself did in his letters. F. F. Bruce cannot think of any author, ancient or modern, whose study is so wonderfully rewarding. This is due to various aspects of his multifaceted character: the warmth of his personality, his great intellectual stature, the exhilarating liberation that his gospel of redemptive grace produces, the force with which he preached this gospel throughout the world. The author's purpose in writing this book is, therefore, to share the treasure that he himself discovered in the life of the beloved Apostle Paul. About this book.
