Book Description
This is the story of the bible told like you've very likely never heard it told before.The bible is one the most highly regarded literary works of all time. A number one best-seller before there even was such a thing, the bible has long been the most purchased book in history. The problem is however, that most people haven't actually read the book, and those who have don't really understand a very fundamental fact about the bible. That fact being that the bible is in all honesty, simply a very bad work of fiction.In my version I strip away all the metaphysical mumbo-jumbo and all the supposedly miraculous nonsense, and tell the story for exactly what it is. The bible is nothing more than a collection of fictional works from the minds of deluded and possibly mentally ill men, which tells the story of the most powerful wizard ever to exist. This wizard just so happens to supposedly live in another dimension, and the bible offers the stories of how this extra-dimensional wizard used to supposedly interact with mankind.Told from the perspective offered here, the absolute ridiculousness of this book becomes painfully transparent. Leaving the reader to wonder how anyone could have ever believed it as fact.

Reading Genesis Well
Author: C. John Collins
Publisher: Zondervan Academic
ISBN: 0310598583
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
What does it mean to be a good reader of Genesis 1-11? What does it mean to take these ancient stories seriously and how does that relate to taking them literally? Can we even take any of this material seriously? Reading Genesis Well answers these questions and more, promoting a responsible conversation about how science and biblical faith relate by developing a rigorous approach to interpreting the Bible, especially those texts that come into play in science and faith discussions. This unique approach connects the ancient writings of Genesis 1-11 with modern science in an honest and informed way. Old Testament scholar C. John Collins appropriates literary and linguistic insights from C. S. Lewis and builds on them using ideas from modern linguistics, such as lexical semantics, discourse analysis, and sociolinguistics. This study helps readers to evaluate to what extent it is proper to say that the Bible writers held a "primitive" picture of the world, and what function their portrayal of the world and its contents had in shaping the community.

The Bible in a Nutshell
Author: Joan McGuire
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1477222022
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 63
Book Description
The Holy Bible. What is it? It is God's love letter to humanity. This is a very shortened version to show that Jesus Christ is the subject of the entire Bible. He is real, we don't need to invent any more Super heroes because He is THE ONE. All the Patriarchs at the beginning of the book as well as the prophets that feature later are all talking and living out aspects of the life of Jesus Christ so that when He was here He constantly referred to "It is written" as the reason for Him doing something because it was important to Him being able to save the human race from its own self-destruction. They are mentioned by name as having done something which they did not realise the significance of at the time. We can only understand things backwards but life has to be lived forwards. Jesus wants to save everyone but we shut ourselves out by the silly things we do. I sincerely hope that you find the love and peace He offers to you in His book.

The Lamb of God (A 10-week Bible Study)
Author: Nancy Guthrie
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433533014
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
"For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote of me." (John 5:46) Jesus's declaration frames this study of four books of the Pentateuch—Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy—as we discover the many ways that Moses wrote about Christ. Seasoned Bible teacher Nancy Guthrie shows that the Bible's story from beginning to end is the story of the Lamb—the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Over ten weeks of guided personal bible study, relevant teaching, and group discussion, you will see the person and work of Christ: in the person of Moses as a great deliverer, mediator, and prophet; in the manna, the water from the rock, and the bronze serpent on the pole; and in the priesthood, tabernacle, and sacrificial system. Gain a fresh perspective on the story of Israel's deliverance and journey, a broader understanding of Jesus as the fulfillment of Scripture, and much more, when you join with Nancy on this incredible journey to see Jesus in the Old Testament! * A leader's guide is available as a free download at SeeingJesusInTheOldTestament.com and a supplemental DVD of Nancy's teaching is also available for purchase.
