Following Jesus, by N. T. Wright
I bought this one with my very own money – and it was money very well spent. Following Jesus was first published in 1994. It doesn’t offer hugely powerful new theology. Rather, it offers excellent, insightful introductions to several New … Continue reading

Surprised by Hell: The Traditional-View Verses and Eternal Death
Obviously, 99.99% of the world’s Christians would not believe in an everlasting, conscious torment in hell unless there was some scriptural support, and indeed there is — (Mat 25:45-46) “He will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did … Continue reading
