Reviews

[BJ Elkins · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great introduction to a Christ-centered hermeneutic.

[Michael · Rating 3 out of 5]

What a great, power-packed little book! There's just a ton of information in here to help anyone who wants to understand the overarching theme of the Bible. Many, many people read the Bible to learn how to improve their lives, but the Bible is actually all about revealing the character of God, especially through His incarnated Son, Jesus Christ. This book shows you how to ferret out this information from every book of the Bible. It's worth owning and reading over and over again.

[Annie Slagboom · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow! An easy to read book on understanding why Scriptures reveal Christ. My favorite and most inspiring part of this book is Chapter 5. This chapter gives an overview of all the books in the Bible and how each points to Christ. Geisler put it best in his Preface, "This book grows out of the conviction that Christ is the key to the interpretation of the Bible."
