What The Bible Really Says About That...! - Paperback

by Robert L. Kramer (Author)

ARE YOU SURE YOU KNOW? What the Bible really says-about some of the most IMPORTANT & CONTROVERSIAL subjects. Was the world created in six days? Is sex a tolerated, tainted activity? What is the image of God? Did Enoch and Elijah never die? Was I born a sinner or saint? Is Saturday or Sunday the required holy day? How did an evil Satan get into God's good world? Once saved, does it really matter how I live? Am I an adopted child of God or born into His family? Is my soul immortal and will sinners face eternal torture or eternal death in Hell? Read this clarifying, scholarly, but easy to read, study of some controversial doctrines and difficult Bible texts. Discover that what the Bible actually says about these subjects is more exciting and freeing than the traditional lore and faulty interpretations men have taught. The writer, Rev. Robert L.
