Well...WOW! I am floored!!!
You can't read this book and remain the same. It will totally alter your view of God, the Gospel and even how you read The Bible. This is a gem. Definitely reading this again, soon!!

It took me 4 months to finish this book because I keep on reading each chapter twice or thrice. Chapter 1 is my favorite, won't get tired reading it everyday, It's a good reminder. Thank you Paul for bringing us the good news. You're awesome!

I love this book!!! I follow Paul's blog, I look forward to every entry he submits. Well, those are were like warm up exercises for this book. As I was reading it, I was thinking it's like a thoroughbred has been set loose out on the track. The way he explains things makes so much sense.
If you have ever felt trapped in religion that seems dead, or if you feel like you are super spiritual and everyone else needs to get their acts together.. or if you feel like you struggle overcoming anything, this book is for you. Yep, I think this book would be great for anyone. It is full of meaty items that will make you think and stories of real life examples.
I feel like God really spoke to me though this book as I was reading it, I was having light bulb moments where I could relate to things that have happened in my life. Questions that never quite made sense to me, the answers were illuminated through this book. I really appreciate Paul and all that he poured into this work. It's a really solid scripture based book that exposes the truth and shows the true goodness of God.

Continuing in the Grace of God, this book challenges traditional mindsets. It begs questions as: How does God deal with us when we sin? How are we certain if our security in Jesus when some passages of scriptures seem to contradict that? What are heavenly awards? These are other questions are answered in this profound book about the wonders of God's grace. I read Paul Ellis previous book about the Gospel in ten words, it was amazing and poignant, this one was no exception.
I really liked how Paul's sarcasm shined all through this book. Taking his personal experience into account, he used humor to show how gracious God is. God is not a fault finding, condemning God but he is a Father that delights to have communion with his children. Also it is never about our willpower to please God but it is about Jesus life living his through us. We are the apple of his eye, He longs to be compassionate to us and what we do or do not do, does not change his affection towards us.
Highly recommended to everyone!

An amazing straight-to-the-point follow up to Gospel in ten words. This new Paul's book will surely provide great help in answering whatever doubts you have in the Gospel of Grace. My faith is always challenged by Mixture Christians who ask me similar question to the topic "Am I under Law" and "Is grace a license to sin", and it was clearly answered in this book. Highly recommend this book to all!

Grace filled words!
Grace filled words. This is of one the best books I have read in recent times. Powerful and illuminating insights into seemingly difficult bible verses. I recommend this to everyone who is tired of lifeless and energy sapping religion of dos and don’ts. Thank you Paul for your efforts in putting this book together. A must have in every library

Grace
Behold I do a new thing and now it shall spring forth. Mixing the new with the old makes us weak and ineffective. Heavenly Father help us embrace the new.

This book will be AMAZING for anyone seeking the truth about Who God really is. If you are fearful about having a relationship with Jesus because you think you are always going to be on His "bad list" you NEED to read this book. Paul Ellis has an AWESOME gift of giving revelation about what the bible truly means and how to read it in the right light that melts all your fears away! A MUST READ!!!!!!

If you like Andrew Wommack and Joseph Prince, you’ll love Paul Ellis. He’s the most anointed writer of God’s grace today. Paul Ellis has thrown down the gauntlet - God’s truth vs. the demonic lies of dead religion. The Gospel in Twenty Questions ignites the fire within and sets the captives free!
