A few weeks ago I picked up a copy of the Wall Street Journal in a hotel. As I was breezing quickly through the sections my eyes fell on something I could not believe. At the bottom of one page was an ad with this startling header: “THE BOOK THAT SAVES THE WORLD.”
The advertisement was for a book written by a biologist. Listen to this description…
Presents the reconciling and psychologically helping biological explanation of our ‘good and evil’ stricken human condition. In doing so it unravels the mystery behind human behavior and ends suffering and conflict at its source – providing the now urgently needed road map for the complete transformation of our lives and world.
- Our problem is not psychological – it is spiritual.
- Our good and evil condition is not a physical problem – it is a sin problem.
- Our transformation is not found in a man’s book – it is found in God’s Book.
The title of the book is Freedom: The End of the Human Condition. Our only freedom is found in Christ! And the end of the human condition will only be fully realized when Christ comes and we are made like Him!
A noted professor wrote in his endorsement that this “is the book that saves the world.” THAT BOOK HAS ALREADY BEEN WRITTEN! It is called the Bible.
May God help us to read it and share it with others with renewed passion. The world is hungry. Needy souls are looking for answers. Give them the Word of God…it is “the Book that saves the world.”
