The first time I listened to Pastor Joseph Prince teach was in 2008 in Singapore. (I got a copy of the book in 2010.  The recent copy I ordered was for a friend.) His understanding of the verses in the Bible was very refreshing for me who started reading the Bible only eight years earlier.  I have listened to most of the major Pastors in the US during the 8 year period and Pastor Prince had indeed a unique way of explaining some of the intricate verses especially those pertaining to the ten commandments given by God to Moses and verses about the terms of the New Covenant, like Hebrews 8:10-13. And read carefully Heb. 8:12. He explains What it Means to Believe in Jesus (page 168). The book is a compelling read which is difficult to stop reading.  In fact I have read the book three times over the past 3 years. I encouraged you to get a copy, read it and keep it with your Bible and share the information to friends, believers or otherwise. All the best and God bless your work, your family, your health and your finances. Remember,if your earthly parents wants to give you stuff, what more your heavenly Father. He has in fact a mansion ready for you which you did not earn or do not deserve. He is giving it to you because He wants to, because you believe in Him and you fellowship with Him every day.

Mr. Prince gives you direction and experiences from his own life based on biblical principles of casting demons. This is a exceptionally well written book which everyone should reread over and over again as well use as a ready reference.

It helps in understanding some parts of scripture that are not so easily discerned.

I appreciated this book immensely and I have drawn it in dialogue and in opportunities to teach our faith community recently. The author makes a compelling case that Jesus used an ethical hermeneutic when reading his own sacred texts. Flood then challenges the reader to follow that ethical trajectory as we seek to interpret and apply scripture in determining how to follow Jesus.  One area I would like to see Derek develop further is how our understanding of ethics is also culturally bound.

Chris is clear and precise if you like the actual meaning of words...It has been a revelation to me to take the plain meaning of the text to understand the context...I am sold out to this kind of expository study...the plain meaning of the text, incredible, Scripture is even more enlightening!  NO CONFUSION, NADA, ZERO FRUSTRATION...Praise Christ for His Word that is living and active...

I read this when I was enduring a trial with my husband's health. It was a comfort. Although it would be nice if I didn't have to go through these things, this book helps one to see why and how we go through them. I am thankful the Lord timed this to encourage me during the hospital stay my husband needed. I am never disappointed with anything Derek Prince has written.

Derek does a great Job with this book. The way he reveals the Hermeneutics of Jesus concerning the Hebrew Scared Text is amazing. What gets me excited is how Jesus fulfills the Law by changing the very law. The Law that brings sin and death is totally changed as Jesus keeps doing it in every page of the Gospel. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a way to explain all the violence that has been attributed to God throughout human history.

Derek Prince gives an excellent explanation on our roles in the Body of Christ. Not only is this book informative, but very inspiring in giving a clear vision as to what God's is looking for and expecting.

As a lay minister, this is a book I can draw from for a new insight into difficult scriptures. Taylor can spin a story into a way that reaches deep within you and draws out a understanding of the scriptures that makes you want to yell "YES"--I understand.  It's not a book to read like a novel.  Its a collection of essays/stories; which can be read for understanding, strength, faith, and hope.

Another absolutely stellar offering in the E-Book world for Christians interested in the deeper study and understanding of God's word.  I highly recommend all of these commentaries, but I am especially keen about this one, because in today's secular oriented world this is one of the most misunderstood and misinterpreted books of the entire Bible.  God says what he means and means what he says.  The bible said it, I believe it, and that settles it for me !

Bishop Spong provides a serious study here of the cultural context of the texts of the Bible, arising over a period of centuries, out of various social and political or religious situations.

He analyzes the troubling passages of the Old Testament to understand how God's Word can be found amid the puzzling events or descriptions from the understandings of previous ages, to determine how they can still make sense in our very different world.  He looks at the evils associated with religious ideas or institutions through our history.

Some readers will feel threatened by some of Spong's radical proposals, because they have never heard anyone speak freely this way in their repressive traditions.  They may see no further than Spong's tendency to periodically mount his particular hobby horses, which he developed in a lifetime of ministry under attack from cultural Christians who used the Bible as a weapon to defeat others.  However much we might sometimes like the Bishop to tone down his rhetoric, let's listen to the insights he draws from his high view of the scriptures here.

Spong writes out of an anguished grief over the misreading of scripture as though it was a news report or travelogues written in the context of our current world.  He honors the integrity of the scriptures, carefully investigating the history and cultural setting of the scriptures.  Spong admirably recreates the faith-crisis situation out of which various biblical stories and events developed.  His commitment to Christ and the God of Revelation is strong, but will misunderstood by many who see "faith" as blind adherence to someone's traditional list of abstracted propositions.

Spong challenges us to deal honestly with the Scriptures, to hear what they really say, and deal with it.  Let's see what they really say, when we read them with integrity, and not just to make them fit our inherited interpretation.  Spong challenges us to read and think about the hard parts, the parts we don't like to hear, the parts that make God look bad.

Spong wants to defend the Bible and maintain its integrity as a set of documents that arose in a real-life situation of a people wrestling with the insights they were gaining, the awareness of the personal God Yahweh, gradually understood as a universal God, not just a tribal deity.  This identity with Yahweh, the Living God, set them apart from their neighboring tribes and nations, putting them in danger.

He suggests a way we might understand these sections as the expression of the level of insight and culture of the times.  Isn't this consistent with the idea of Incarnation?  God comes into human culture.  As Jesus said, we sometimes cannot bear the full truth.  We get only glimpses of it.  Spong helps us see how these glimpses come through the dominant view that makes so much of the Old Testament repulsive to us, blaming God for things everyone agrees are evil.  Spong feels God deserves a better shake, and the Scriptures deserve a better reading from us.  Let's hear him out.  The most constructive part is at the end.

Spong undertakes the difficult task of finding how the stories of history in one small group of related scribes came to be the Word of God to not just the remnant of that federation but to all the peoples of the world, as the Gospels proclaim.  He helps the thoughtful reader see that there i one consistent God of Love, active redemption and reconciliation, who acted in Christ, and can speak to us today, if we hear him speak through history, free from the imposed expectations of modern culture.

This work will present rewarding and enlightening information to make sense of stories and provide insights into understanding the biblical texts in their own context.  This will be challenging for many, but it is refreshing to see the writer deal honestly with the text and the problems it presents to us today.
