The Holy Bible is an idol to some, a dust-magnet to others, and an
enigma to many. Is it word for word "God breathed," as claimed by
the apostle Paul? Holy Enigma! examines the Bible through the
discerning eyes of a lifelong believer, one who loves the "Good
Book" enough to probe its eccentricities without condemning its
virtues. Believe it or not, the "Greatest Story Ever Told" has a
dark side. That's right, verse after verse, the Bible is chock-full
of fascinating, sometimes shocking and almost never discussed
lexis, you'll never hear in Sunday school. A distinctive Bible
study, Holy Enigma! takes a fresh look at the ancient stories of
the Near East. It introduces candor, humor, and commonsense into a
careful assessment of "God's word." In a heartfelt desire to spawn
new interest in the Bible, the author opens a Pandora's Box by
suggesting that belief in every biblical word insults the majesty
of the Creator. Exploring the most bizarre passages, this work
stands firm against evangelicals who flaunt the "dogma of
inerrancy." Holy Enigma! is sure to astonish and entertain while
inspiring deep reflection for believers and nonbelievers alike.
