ISBN-13: 9780994262738 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 212 str.
"The Really Good News About God" discusses the God of the Bible and his all-inclusive plans for his creation. What have you heard about God?
That God doesn't exist?
That God is a kind, white-bearded old man who lives, somewhat disinterestedly, somewhere out there?
That God is a mean-spirited judge keeping score of our mistakes and waiting to use them to consign us to an eternity in a fiery hell?
If any of these fit your current thinking about God, this book will surprise and delight you. "The Really Good News About God" shows how the Bible reveals a God of unfailing love and extravagant grace with a wonderful plan to include all us, good and bad alike eventually, in his eternal family.
It uses everyday language to address some of the deep questions most of us wrestle with at some point in our lives.
Who am I?
Why am I?
What is life?
What is death?
Is there a God? If so, what is God like?
Does life on this planet have any purpose? The book has a prologue and seven chapters.
The Prologue is an invitation to imagine our world as a theatrical stage production.
Chapter One discusses God's extravagant love as the motivating factor for all that he does.
Chapter Two explores God's sovereignty - his ability to do whatever he decides and to fully achieve his purpose for his creation.
Chapter Three describes this purpose, and the plans God has to achieve it.
Chapter Four examines the role that Jesus Christ, God's Son, plays in achieving God's purpose.
Chapter Five investigates judgement and punishment, and shows how God uses these in his plans for restoring the creation to its original intended position and condition.
Chapter Six uses the metaphor of a perfect parent to draw the conclusion that God really has good news for all of us.
Chapter Seven discusses how special we are and how we might respond to knowing this really good news about God. "The Really Good News About God" is an easy, refreshing read, written in an informal, conversational style, not weighed down by theological or religious language.
It's a good place to start exploring these important questions, as the author offers positive, uplifting answers from the Bible that challenge the good news/bad news dualism usually promoted by much of mainstream Christianity.
