Understanding the Old Testament's Purpose in the Christian's Life Today
The Old Testament makes up the majority of the Christian Bible, yet incorrect teaching of its texts abounds in the church. Without effectively studying these stories, covenants, and kingdoms within their close, continuing, and complete biblical contexts, believers miss the beauty of the Old Testament, including how it points to Jesus, and why it still matters today.

Yet I want it delivered to me in a simple "worker's language." Recent translations have strived toward this end and...

The author was going through some old files and came up with some stuff he hadn't published. So he threw it all together and made something out of it. If nothing else it should be interesting as there are some off the wall topics included, as well as some attempts at poetry. But if you look at its various topics, you might find something interesting.
For instance, "Was America Founded as a Christian Nation"? Or the history of Babylon or the history...
