Opis

This book was written for the purpose of magnifying the person of Jesus Christ. After fifty plus years as a professing Christian, the author found himself in the embarrassing position of realizing that his knowledge of all Jesus is, was, and is to be was sorely lacking. The degree of his concern over what he knew he didn't know motivated him to search deeper and deeper into what the Bible in it's entirety has to say about Jesus. What he found on this journey has forever changed his life and brought him closer to God. Some of the questions answered in this work are as follows: -Does the Bible have one central message or is it a complex mixture of allegory designed to be open to many interpretations? -Do the Old and New Testaments flow together in continuity or do they serve separate purposes? -Does God have a heart and if so, what is in it? -What is the distinction between God the Father and Jesus the Son? -What is the purpose and significance of God's law? -Does God have two sets of "chosen people" or just one? -What were the promises God made to Abraham and to whom do they apply? -Can we identify the "true Israel of God"? -Can I know "what God wants from me"? At first glance, one might legitimately ask what some of these issues have to do with Jesus. From Genesis to Revelation, "Jesus the Main Thing" answers what Scripture has to say about all the above and much more, and how they relate to the most Supreme message of all time, The Gospel of Jesus Christ?
