Best Book Ever!
Monday, March 22 2004 @ 05:20 PM PST
I would like to recommend reading the book "Lord, I Have a Question - Everything you ever wanted to ask God but were afraid to say out loud” by Dan Smith. It is available through Pacific Press Publishing and available at most Adventist Book Stores. This is a "can't lay it down book".
I think I like a confirmation of what I am already convinced of. It makes me so "settled into the truth I can’t be moved". This is beyond a doubt one of the very best books I have ever read from a SDA author in my life! This book is not intended to be scholarly (thank goodness). It is a clear and understandable message that will give its readers a wake-up; shake-up significant message.
Smith takes a reasonable balanced approach to controversial questions like the meaning of The Cross, the wrath of God, the character of God, the last message to go to the world, the final end of sin and sinners, atonement theories, why we don't see miracles today and why we don't feel our prayers are answered. There are quotes from Jack Provonsha, Alden Thompson, Dick Winn and others. I hope this book has wide circulation.
We need more authors like Dan Smith who is clear on the everlasting "good news" that God is infinitely more wonderful than we can imagine or express. I hunger for books like this. It will be a good reference to those who teach Sabbath School Classes and small groups - as well as for graduation presents.
Enjoy!
