great book for Christians and non-Christians alike
|
| What made Christ's disciples the men that were chosen? What made them so great? It was that they were ordinary men, like you and me. MacArthur takes the disciples and writes what we know about them and what kind of men they were. His only source is the Bible. Well, he uses other sources to find out what happened to them (in some cases) after the Resurrection. There is a little speculation here and there, but it seems well thought out and intelligent. My only fault is his chapter on Judas. Yes, he is the great betrayer. Yes he did a horrible thing, but wasn't it required of him? Didn't Jesus have to have one of them betray him? In the end, did he have a choice. One of the most interesting of the disciples and I just didn't feel MacArthur put the time, thought or energy into him that is deserved, but overall, and that includes the Judas chapter, great stuff. It should be required reading for all Christians (and other religious folks) and even for atheists and agnostics (maybe especially agnostics). |
