Book Summary
Most Christians are familiar with only a few selected verses of the Bible that are repeated endlessly without much understanding. "The Promise of Heaven" points out the lesser-known dark and morbid aspects of the Bible that congregations never hear from religious leaders. Alexander Bless asks controversial questions for believers as well as non-believers to consider. -What was God doing before creation? If God created everything out of nothing (Gen.1:1) did he exist in the middle of nothing? Was He the only 'something" in nothing? -In the flood story God destroyed humans as punishment for their sins. Why did He also destroy animals? -Why did God create humans with all their human failings and then punish them for it? -Why do you have to fear God? How can you love God if you fear Him? Curiosity is a natural instinct of mankind that drives it to learn and to progress. Paul says in I.Corin.13: 11(DRB) 'When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But, when I became a man, I put away the things of a child."
