The Message of the Living God: His Glory, His People, His World

By Peter Lewis

Book Overview

The God of the Bible is the living, active and self-revealing God. He takes the initiative in making himself known. He is a speaking God, and he calls for a listening people. Those who listen in faith, he draws in love into a relationship that engages every fibre of their humanity and enters every event in their lives. This is a book by a theologian and preacher who believes that the first purpose of a biblical theology is to lead us to the feet of the living God. The book ends with the theme of worship: an attitude and activity that takes us out into the world to serve this living God and to make him known.

Excellent Biblical overview

This book presents an overview of the Bible's message. The overview consists of selected sections of the Bible, from Genesis, Exodus, Deuteronomy, Leviticus, Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, John, Romans, Matthew, and Revelation. This is a book not to be rushed through, but to be read slowly and attentively and appreciatively. It is a book well worth reading. As the title says, the book concerns "The Message of the Living God", and there is plenty of application to today in the book.
