Although this is a book about the Christian's obligation to the State, it will seem to some to be a book more about marriage, divorce, and remarriage. This is because the issues surrounding marriage, divorce, and remarriage can be viewed as a tool (in this case, a prism) which the author employs to explore and critically examine the subject discussed in this book, which is, when all is said and done, the Christian's obligation to the State as viewed through the lordship of Jesus Christ.

This book deals with an important, difficult, and controversial subject. It has two basic parts. The first is a critique of determinism as reflected primarily in the doctrine that has come to be known as Calvinism. The second is designed specifically for those who are not Calvinists, but have felt the influence of Calvin's man-made doctrine on their thinking. No matter your position on this subject, expect to be challenged.

Since the Vietnam era, there has arisen, in America and the whole of Western society, a way of thinking that argues against all war. Consequently, a book discussing the question of a Christian's participation in war and other related issues in light of this emerging consensus seems not just appropriate but necessary. In an environment where war is, by definition, immoral, it is difficult for "good," "decent" folks to think positively about war-fighting. This book is an effort to correct such thinking and to instruct the interested reader as to what the Bible actually says about this most important subject. In addition to the war issue, the author deals with the question of nuclear weapons, the United Nations, the war on terror and how it relates to the war in Iraq, and capital punishment. The author's examination of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount and how it relates to this subject of war is especially interesting.

While living and working in Kenya, East Africa in the early nineteen nineties, the author decided to devote some time to thinking about the attributes and characteristics of God and how they relate to the subject of man's free will. It soon became apparent to him that far too many Christians were trying to relate to God as a man, albeit a man of larger proportions. As he continued to think about the various ideas and concepts about God he had heard among his fellow Christians, he came to understand that many-and he does not exclude himself from these-frequently constructed and bowed down to a god (notice the use of the little "g" here) that was not the I AM THAT I AM revealed in Scripture. He observed that this was being done by gospel preachers as well as, otherwise, knowledgeable Christians. These seemed to be unaware that they were regularly engaged in idolatry. It wasn't the pagan idolatry that one reads about in the Old and New Testaments, but it was idolatry nevertheless. The book represents a study consisting of (1) a tribute to the one true God, (2) an examination of the psychological nature of idolatry, and (3) a critique of some of the idols we moderns have constructed for ourselves.
