Behold the Messiah

by Robert J. Matthews

World events have intensified with wars and rumors of wars. It is becoming increasingly evident that there is a crucial need for a world-Messiah, having the power and the plan to change human nature and disposition. The process of finding Christ and coming unto Him can be much enhanced by this landmark book. Thus the story emphasizes the premortal life. It moves quickly to John the Baptist,the Lord's forerunner and herald. Then, from the Christ child's birth to the Redeemer's death and glorious resurrection, the author follows the Lord's ministry, highlighting the major issues and events, explaining and clarifying the traditional record.

I took multiple classes from this gentle, scholarly man.

This was a great book to read in preparation for this year's study of the New Testament. I have been reading this book for about 9 months. It is a book for study not just reading. I have such a respect for Robert Matthews knowledge of the Savior and Paul and he shows his love of both in his writings.
I enjoyed some of the in depth study Matthews gave us of some of the parables of Jesus and his interactions with others named in the New Testament.
All in all a good study of the Savior's life and Paul's life.
