I think I need it in my life right now bigtime.<br /><br />I like your blog by the way (follower for a while now, never commented).<br /><br />I mostly read fiction (MG, YA). But I do read nonfiction (maybe 1-2 books per month). I read "The Power of Focus" which was interesting (I'm not a business person, but a lot of the messages were good all the same). And I read "Unstuck" which was interesting...if only if it would stick in my head so I actually would learn from it :)<br /><br />JillReaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02201214153283847258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661314111464958638.post-21980936085996036312012-10-30T09:53:46.924-07:002012-10-30T09:53:46.924-07:00All I can say is Thank you God for Jesus!!!!All I can say is Thank you God for Jesus!!!!Elizabeth Seckmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00045076826326574984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661314111464958638.post-566062104157472352012-10-29T11:30:27.362-07:002012-10-29T11:30:27.362-07:00@Jeremy: You're half right: gentiles were neve...@Jeremy: You're half right: gentiles were never bound by the Law, which is most of the world. Christians should not be bound by the Law but by Grace; however, Paul does state that Christians can choose, basically, to be bound by the Law, but, if they do, they are bound by all of it and must follow it perfectly. There is no picking and choosing which parts you can follow. From that standpoint, this is a very important book, because SO MANY Christians choose to live under the Law rather than Grace.<br /><br />I think this is going to be a fascinating book, not that I'll get to it any time soon. I'm sure my wife will, though.Andrew Leonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964775673414653644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6661314111464958638.post-75794962486316184232012-10-29T06:42:02.436-07:002012-10-29T06:42:02.436-07:00I really do need to do a better job of re-reading ...I really do need to do a better job of re-reading my comments before publishing.

Her book might be interesting, but is an exercise in futility lest one is unsaved. It should make for some interesting reading nevertheless, but taken from the context of the 21st century, it could not be applicable to the times.Jeremy Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00877532315856151843noreply@blogger.com
