Otherwise, it is one of the best Christ-exalting books I've ever read.


Ps. I knew Gerry from seminary, so I emailed him about the reference to oneness in the book. He told me that it should have never gone to copy and didn't understand why it was there. (I still have the email).

If you want an edifying read about the God in Christ, pick it up!

That's to be expected, because Mark Driscoll also has weird "cut and paste" references to oneness doctrine in his sermons sometimes. He refers often to the "trinitarian God of the Bible", which I find strange. In one YT video he seriously misrepresented basic oneness doctrine in the same stereotypical manner that many of us misrepresent trinitarians as tritheists. It was almost comical, actually.

Anyway...I'm hoping I get the Kindle+accessories I requested for Christmas, and if so, I'll have to remember this book suggestion.
