God has provided a way for all people, not just scholars, to know that the Bible is the Word of God. John Piper has devoted his life to showing us that the glory of God is object of the soul’s happiness. Now, his burden in this book is to demonstrate that this same glory is the ground of the mind’s certainty. God’s peculiar glory shines through his Word. The Spirit of God enlightens the eyes of our hearts. And in one self-authenticating sight, our minds are sure and our hearts are satisfied. Justified certainty and solid joy meet in the peculiar glory of God.

God has a bad reputation. Many think of God as wrathful and angry, smiting people for no apparent reason. But the story is more complicated than that. Without minimizing the sometimes harsh realities of the biblical record, David Lamb unpacks the complexity of the Old Testament and assembles an overall picture that gives coherence to our understanding of God in both Old and New Testaments.

God in Heaven and the LORD on the Earth This book will captivate you as soon as you begin to see the five Gods in the Bible. The Hebrew Bible is written in allegories to differentiate God in heaven from the LORD on the earth. Moses mentions God and the four different LORDS (Yahwehs) on earth in the book of Exodus. Jesus illustrates these five different deities in depth throughout His parables, and so do the prophets Daniel and Enoch, as well as the Psalms. Jesus gave several distinctions to differentiate the Son of God from the Son of Man, and that these two Sons have their own monarchy. The ancient writers of the Hebrew scriptures gave certain continuously characteristic clues to differentiate God in heaven from the LORD on earth--for instance, that God in heaven lives in His palace among women, whereas the LORD on the earth lives in His temple among men. Literally hundreds of scriptures throughout the Bible mentions the four different LORDS on the earth, whereas God is in heaven. As soon as you start studying the Torah, the five books of Moses, and all the prophets, you will see that the entire Bible is written in a secret royal language to explain the five Deities and their kingdoms. This book will challenge your views on and opinions about the Bible forever, and you will find that these scriptures are not actually religious texts per se, but that the Hebrew scriptures, in fact, explain in depth the five different Gods and the two main monarchies.

For the Love of God is a provocative and inspiring re-interpretation of six essential Biblical texts: The Song of Songs, the Book of Ruth, Psalms, Ecclesiastes, Jonah, and Job. In prose that is personal and probing, analytically acute and compellingly readable, Ostriker sees these writings as "counter-texts," deviating from convention yet deepening and enriching the Bible, our images of God, and our own potential spiritual lives. Attempting to understand "some of the wildest, strangest, most splendid writing in Western tradition," she shows how the Bible embraces sexuality and skepticism, boundary crossing and challenges to authority, how it illuminates the human psyche and mirrors our own violent times, and how it asks us to make difficult choices in the quest for justice.
