Michael Martz asks why so many people don’t understand God, think the Bible is too complicated, and are convinced that being “good” is enough. He challenges readers to take several steps back and reexamine what they believe to be true. Consider questions such as: • What’s the difference between Christianity and all other beliefs? • Do we have to choose between Christianity or science? • It is impossible to not have a religion—do you approach it forward, or backward? • Why is there no such a thing as an atheist? • What is salvation? Who decides? Why did the veil tear? • Can we fall from salvation? Are all three OSAS views wrong? • Why are so many who call themselves Christian, unsaved? Could that be you? • What does the Bible say about homosexuality, pornography, and sin—who does God hate? • What does scripture teach about universalism? Water baptism? • Will Christians go through the tribulation? What is the danger? • At the rapture, are wicked taken fi rst and righteous left behind? • Why do Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons carry verses they do not read (or think are corrupted)? This text strives to prove the reality and simplicity of the Bible, that it is scientific (but naturalism is not), and that a real person lived and died for us long ago, and returned from the dead. A person who claimed to be God, who now offers Himself for intimate communion with us. So many people perceive God and Jesus and the Spirit as detached and distant. Can we experience God personally?
