BOOK REVIEW: "DO NOT BE TRUE TO YOURSELF" BY KEVIN DEYOUNG

-

 I know. It sounds like one of those inspirational books to give a "high" of self-worth. But this book is the polar opposite of that. It is pure GOLD. It is a call to be countercultural in a postmodernist, Godless world. And it perfect for those just leaving home for the first time, as well as college students, but it is applicable for everybody. So, yes, read this book, and let God call you to be a Bible Warrior. In a world dominated by Goliaths, we need a David.


It is published by Crossway and is available anywhere where books are sold.  I'll enclose the link here to Reformation Heritage.

Enjoy!

  Firstly, one thing must be said. The King James Only Movement is among the greatest mistakes in the history of the Church.       Christians today are getting harassed, bullied, lectured, and most importantly, divided in the work of Jesus Christ because of the Bible translation they use. Does that make sense to you?

This will be dealt with in greater detail in a future article, but let me give you just one example to show you what I mean. In the book of Romans, the phrase 'God forbid!' appears many times throughout the text. But what many people don’t know is that that phrase does not appear in the original Greek. Seriously, the word 'God', and the word 'Forbid' are not there. A literal translation would be 'may it not be so!' The Translators para...

The Scroll Saga: the greatest Christian book series you have probably never heard of

       I first got acquainted with the Scroll Saga when it was recommended to me by a friend. I was skeptical at first, but once I got through the first few chapters, I couldn't put it down. After I finished book 1, I was so desperate to read the next book in the series that I purchased it immediately. And... It was even better than the first one! (That's saying something). The third book in the Scroll Saga is geared more towards young ladies, but it is still valuable and entertaining.      This series is SPECTACULAR. It has the perfect mix of drama, humor, and sometimes  startling truth. It really makes you think about the world, the Church, and the Christian life differently. The author, through clever allegorical scenes, displays societal problems that we often miss.      The Castle represents the modern  Church. The Oasis is the true Church that is aligned with God's will. The Scroll is the Bible. Dragons are sin. And warri...
