The Spirit of the Matter is born from a love of truth and a love of God's word. When these two loves come together, we find the Scriptures are not only reliable and consistent, but a brilliantly designed set of instructions for life, reaching a depth of profundity that most Christian teachings fail to address.
This book carefully examines the Christian notion that the Mosaic Law (Torah) no longer is applicable to believers and guides readers through an understanding of how and why the words of God spoken to the Old Testament writers are intensely relevant to people today. Readers will take a thought-provoking journey through topics such as:
-Are we supposed to believe a literal seven-day account of creation in the book of Genesis?
-Is it possible that the New Testament instructs those who believe in Jesus Christ to also obey certain commands in the Torah?
-Is it conceivable that the Sabbath day as established in the creation story could also hold truths for the events of Revelation and the end times?
This book will encourage you with a confidence that God's word holds much more for believers than most have been taught to expect.
