The purpose of Christian faith and life is not to satisfy the curiosity or appetites of believers, but to recruit them into the action of God’s Spirit in building the kingdom of God. Faith and the Christian life introduce a person into a new kind of life and relationship to the world that entails spiritual growth for the sake of the world’s salvation.
