Powerful doctrinal understanding for the Christian

Few books are life changing. This is one of them.Miller's book should be on every Christian's bookshelf, and re-read on a regular basis. The insights that Miller gives into this most powerful of Christian doctrines go to the very heart of the gospel; providing the reader with new depths of understanding of Christ's work on the cross. Moreover, Miller gives the practical details of using the power of forgiveness in your own life. This book was truly liberating. Miller shows how unforgiveness poisons relationships, thwarts us in God's work, and generally causes all sorts of havoc for the Christian and in the church. Once the consequences of unforgiveness are clearly understood, Miller explores the various aspects and types of forgiveness and how and when to forgive. The book is at once doctrinally deep, yet very practical and applied. Miller reveals hard truths about the nature of sin and why forgiveness is so counter to man's natural instincts -- and yet so necessary if we are to emulate Christ. This is one of the first books I would recommend for a new believer or for a Christian seeking renewed power in their walk. "Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."
