I'd like to give this book to ANYONE who would take the time to read it! This book can help your Christian walk if you will allow God to speak to you. Here's an excerpt:
"We live in a world that is very religious. In fact, God has
made every man with a built-in awareness that he has a Creator
to whom he is accountable (Romans 1). The one who gives life
and breath to all men (Acts 17:25) has placed within everyone
enough light with which to begin their search for truth (John 1:9).
However, the fact that there are so many gods, so many
idols, and so many self-proclaimed pathways to truth shows that
something has gone terribly wrong.
The problem is a simple one. Man is a fallen creature. From
his first father, Adam, he has inherited a nature that is corrupt
and bent toward a denial of that which is true, holy and righteous.
When one combines a God-consciousness with a fallen nature,
the one sure result will be false religion.
It has been well said that God created man in His own image
and since that day man has been seeking to return the favor. That
is to say, men invent a god who suits their tastes, lifestyle or
convictions. Then, when they are asked if they believe in God
they say, “Why, certainly.” When asked if they are living a life
that is pleasing to God they say, “Of course.”
They are not lying. They just don’t have the one true and
living God of the Bible as their god."
