Customer Reviews

Not HARDCOVER!!! The text of this book is great, but it was listed as hardcover and was not. The p

Love the author and her writings. The issue is that it was listed as a hardcover book, but it was not!!! This edition is a PAPERBACK.

My Fav all time book

My favorite book. The life of Christ amplified. This book explains some of the culture and practices some of Jesus Jesus baffling sayings and doings. Your understanding of Christ, the most well known historical Being, will be enhanced.

Excellent Book About The Life Of Christ

Without question, this is one of the best books ever written about the life of Christ. I can highly recommend it! Very uplifting and inspirational.

In-depth study of Jesus' life, written like a complex novel

Best biography of Jesus' life that I have ever read! It is like reading a Bible commentary in a biography novel format. Very well written. Little complex for those not into Bible study.

An Amazing Book

This book was given to me by a co-worker and it's probably the best book I've ever read. The book goes right along with the Bible. This book is a reflection of the life of Jesus and will rev up your spiritual life and will bring you closer to God. Yes, it's that amazing! In some editions, Bible verses are noted at the beginning of each chapter so you can read the story in the Bible and then read what Ellen G. White has to say about it. If you want to strengthen your relationship with the Lord, this book will deliver. It's also interesting to note that the last five or six chapters have been made into a book called "The Passion of Love" which you can buy at Wal-Mart. I love how this book tells the story of Christ's betrayal, trial and conviction, his death and resurrection. If you loved the movie "The Passion of Christ" this book is a must-read.

Passionate Love From a Personal God

There's a reason why the Library of Congress holds this as their best book on the life of Christ, and also why my personal copy is in tatters. I simply have never read another book, besides the Bible, that made God's love so clear to me. We are bathed in His love every moment of our lives, whether we acknowledge this or not. The ultimate proof of this divine love is revealed in the life and death of one Man -- Jesus. This book will make Him real to you.
