Discovering God's Treasures / Ford, Desmond / (HB/1972-1972/A-/USED)

Condition note: Book is very clean with almost no wear--almost like new.

Many people, coming to the Bible for the first time, find it 'a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside and enigma' (to borrow a phrase). There are many books explaining the Bible, but the most productive method of study is to allow the Bible to explain itself.

In "Discovering God's Treasures" the author asks such questions as any newcomer would ask -- about the Bible, its writers, its purpose; about God and Jesus, the angels; about the meaning of life, the meaning of the past, what the future holds. Then the Bible is allowed to answer these questions for itself.

Let this book be the doorstep to a new experience for you as you discover what God has in store for you in His Word.
