Rating:  Summary: And ye shall know the truth...... Review: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.NO JOKE! GET IT, READ IT. May God Bless You.
Rating:  Summary: And ye shall know the truth...... Review: Even though this book was written in 1600's, it remained very pratical, even up to today. It talked about how a young boy rejecting the calling of God and became a chief in evil workings. And see how God gave him up to vile illusion. Truly a God inspired book.

Rating:  Summary: The Reverse Pilgrim's Progress - Burning Issues Review: Mr. Badman is just plain BAD. Little sins in little children get magnified into bigger and worse sins. Mr. Badman truly has every bad trait anyone could ever have. He started with lying and stealing, graduated into drinking, cheating and adultery, and then becomes a first-class hypocrite to snag himself a wealthy Christian woman for marriage. While he was sick, he cried out in false repentance only to regress as soon as he was getting well. The saddest and most touching part of the book is the death of his Christian wife and her exhortations to him and their unsaved children. From then on, it's all downhill, as Mr. Badman's seared conscience admits no light, and God gives him up to his destruction. This book has everything NOT to do if you don't want to end up like Mr. Badman. It is also very relevant with the issues of today, drunk "driving", planned "parenthood", and bankruptcy and fraud. Hot summertime reading.
Rating:  Summary: I am undone! Review: While this book tends to deal with the individual that is completely sold out for sin, there are things that every Christian will be able to identify with. John Bunyan deals with the fact that sin is sin, no matter what lable any given society has given it. While I thank the Almighty Sovereign God for showing me my need for a savior, and for granting me the priviledge of repenting when I did, I must admit that my heart was very sorrowful and heavy as I read this book. By reading of Badman's extreme antics and his propensity for developing new methods of sin, I must admit that I saw things in my regenerated being that relate to Mr. Badman in one way or another. This is NOT a good thing to identify with, however, I feel that it is a tool that God is using in order to show me my continued need for help from above. While this book is ficticious in it's characters, the truths that come blazing forth from the scenarios are deep and penetrating. This is a book that should be read often. This is a book that forces the reader to bare his soul before the Creator. Thank God for men like Bunyan. Do yourself a favor, O comfortable Christian......Read this book and pray that God will allow you to be honest with your assessment of your current condition. Steven D. Draa
