James R Anderson

James Anderson has written a book composed of the entire New Testament verses dealing with the issue of salvation. It is evident that this book was written with the intent to allow scripture to speak loudly for itself. It is not a book that pushes any specific denominational standing but rather that salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone.

I was impressed with the unusual layout - which has no chapter breaks. It was written with the intent of being used as a devotional. However, I think show more it could just as easily be adapted for use in a small group setting. This would allow those in a church struggling with the issue of salvation to walk through scripture in a text setting with a leader and to explore these scriptures in depth more completely. Anderson does well at explaining scripture without attaching to it any personal opinion.

I found the book to be theologically sound, offering a great resources to individuals and churches as well. I will be using it with our church.

Special thanks to the author for compiling this informative book and for offering it to me free of charge as a review copy in exchange for an unbiased review. show less

The heart felt messages in the book add a flavorful understanding to the books of the Bible in the New Testament, from Matthew to Revelation. The main premise is that the Word of God is true and that we are saved by Grace (plus, nothing more). The delusion of this world is that there is no God, therefore no need for salvation. Use this book to assist you in your studies and understanding of scripture. If you're in a hurry, this one isn't for you. Deep passages cause for sobering reflection. show more Because there aren't chapters or set apart scriptures by date, I found the layout not as flowing for me. However, the lyrics to an old Scandinavian hymn (back of the book) says it all quite beautifully; how a person comes to be saved. show less
