Description
A Genesis-to-Revelation gallery of the most important personalities of Scripture: brought to life in vivid prose, their teachings explained in easy language and their contribution to the Gospel saga clearly laid out.
Highlighted are the close encounters with the divine – experienced men like Moses, David and Daniel, and women like Rahab, Ruth and Esther – and culminating in the coming to Earth of God as Jesus.
The immediacy of the encounters of Jesus with ordinary people is brought to life in a way that makes the nerves tingle and the small hairs bristle. Then there are the personal encounters of the Risen Jesus – including ‘the encounter of encounters’ outside Damascus.
By the time you read the Patmos prophet on the way that heaven will come down the final time you realise that, profitably and painlessly, you have been introduced to every major Bible teaching.
