Publisher's Synopsis
The book we know as the Bible is a collection of books written over time from various authors and carefully preserved in their accuracy each time copied and translated. To the faithful, it is believed that God inspires the information contained in it through His Holy Spirit. It includes the history - the good, the bad, and the ugly - of sinful man and God's plan to redeem as many as possible through the free gift of His only Son's sacrifice. Although God is just and perfect, He also has mercy and love.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."( John 3:16)
This book looks at many of the people whose lives are talked about in the Bible. The Bible contains stories and histories of murderers, thieves, liars, adulterers, prostitutes, and others who, when humbling themselves and seeking His mercy and forgiveness, had their lives restored. Others who did not seek His forgiveness were and shall be judged without mercy. The choice belongs to each of us.
Arthur Isaacson has written a book worth reading. In simple and direct language, he guides the reader through various subjects giving them his biblical worldview.
