Trusting Genesis and the Gospels

A Defense of Divine Creation, of the Resurrection of Christ, and of Salvation in Christ

Available from Amazon, Audible, or  iTunes.

     This book addresses three vital subjects in regards to the Christian faith.

     The first is the reliability of the Book of Genesis, the first book of the Bible and of the Old Testament, and most specifically its teachings about divine creation.

     The second subject is the reliability of the Gospels, the first four books of the New Testament of the Holy Bible, and most specifically their claims about the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

     The preceding leads to the third subject of this book, “Forgiveness and Salvation in Christ.” Since God is our Creator, we are answerable to Him. And we have all sinned against Him. But Jesus’ resurrection demonstrated that God accepted Christ’s death as a sufficient sacrifice for our sins. We can thus be forgiven and saved by trusting in His death and resurrection.

     Together, these three sections make this book ideal for evangelism. It will show seekers and doubters there are answers to their questions on these subjects and their need for salvation.

Happy New Year everyone!

     2024 was a terrible year for me, with many health setbacks and other problems, leading to the loss of many work days and missed workouts. It fittingly ended with a bout with Covid (hence why I’m a bit late with this post). Here’s praying 2025 is a better year for me and a good one for the reader.

Merry Christmas everyone! Remember the Reason for the Season:

             ⁸And shepherds were in the same region staying in the fields and watching over their flock [during the] watches of the night. ⁹And look! An angel of [the] Lord stood over them, and [the] glory of [the] Lord shone around them, and they feared a great fear. ¹⁰And the angel said to them, “Stop being afraid! For listen! I bring to you* the Gospel [or, Good News] of great joy, which will be to all the people. ¹¹Because a Savior was born to you* today in the city of David, who is Christ [the] Lord! ¹²And this [will be] the sign to you*: You* will find a Baby having been wrapped in long strips of cloth, lying in a feeding trough.”

         ¹³And suddenly [there] was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly army [or, host], praising God, and saying, ¹⁴“Glory to God in [the] highest, and peace on earth, goodwill among people!” (Luke 2:8-14; ALT3c).

ALT3c Mistake

     I have no idea how, but the final paragraph (last two verses) of the Book of Jude was omitted in all formats in the latest update of my “Analytical-Literal Translation of the New Testament of the Holy Bible” specifically, the “Third Edition (corrected)” (ALT3c). I have corrected the text for all formats of ALT3c on Amazon and Lulu. But if you already purchased the volume, the omitted text is as follows:

             ²⁴Now to the One being able to keep them from stumbling and to make [you*] stand in the presence of His glory unblemished [or, blameless], with great happiness—²⁵to [the] only wise God our Savior, [be] glory and majesty, dominion and authority, both now and to all the ages! [fig., forevermore!] So be it!
