Jesus also mixed in lessons showing His disciples how to understand scripture. Lessons the disciples failed to learn. Complete misunderstanding of scripture, combined with the lack of a genuine relationship with Jesus teaches a vital lesson about God's plan of salvation. The lack of support at the cross is meant to teach us lessons to properly equip us as disciples for these last days. Once Jesus' disciples realized what they had missed, the Spirit was able to effectively equip them for the task ahead. The same remains true today. Until you achieve an authentic relationship with Christ and His Spirit, you will never understand the deeper meaning of scripture, or be an effective worker in His vineyard.
Dennis Herman has a unique style of writing rarely seen in the Christian book market. His stories take you back to the places Jesus walked, experiencing love, joy, heartache, and sorrow as details of each story unfolds. Each story dwells deep into the lessons Jesus taught in a literary fashion a child can see, understand, remember, and share. Dennis' unparalleled style not only reveals unprecedented depth into events and personalities recorded in scripture, he also shares and explains simple study methods he uses to gather information throughout the Bible. Scripture is highlighted to illustrate key words and thoughts used to search for supporting texts. Not only is this book entertaining, but educational.
