Many have been misled into thinking that the Genesis account of creation is not actual history, but is just some sort of theological argument. This small book succinctly shows why those who believe in the inspiration of Scripture have no intellectually honest choice but to take Genesis as history, just as Jesus did. It powerfully challenges one of the major problems in the church today that affects the authority of the entire Bible.
More than half a century has passed since the horrors of the Nazi racial extermination camps were revealed to a disbelieving world. Yet the battle of ethnic hate and violence remains one of the burning issues of our time. Billions of dollars are spent fighting it. Oprah devotes entire programs to it. Presidents consult civic and religious leaders; everyone seems to be wrestling with the problems of racial prejudice, yet solutions evade us. But what does "race" really mean? Are there really show more multiple races of humans, and where did this concept originate? The Bible says in Acts 17:26 that God has "made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth". So, is there really such a things as the "white race" or "black race"? You will be astonished at the easy-to-understand scientific facts, and how they line up with the often-overlooked simplicity of God's word.
In this groundbreaking book, you will read, perhaps for the first time, about racism's evolutionary connections, and the powerful answer from Genesis. For a real solution to ethnic hatred, read this copy of One Blood. You'll see the explosive debate in a whole new, startling light.

Michael comments: This book in a very simplistic way describes the origins of man from a biblical perspective. It supports the biblical account with scientific facts that are easy enough for anyone to understand. One of the key things one will learn from reading this book and the account of Genesis is there is just one race, the human race. As said in Acts 17:26, we are all of one blood. Sure our skin colors and languages may differ, but we are all descendents of Adam and Eve.
