What an incredible translation of the Word. Very scholarly, well written, and more than almost any other translation it truly follows the theme of the finished work of the cross. This is necessary for any true student of the Word. Bless you tons.

A fresh way to read our love letters from God This provocative paraphrase of the New Testament is based on Ben Johnson's belief that truth lies in relationships. He affirms that "the truth about God is discovered and expressed through our relationship to him" Looking at the letters of the apostle Paul in this light brings them forcefully into the life and times of our day. Blending his training in New Testament Greek with his wide experience interacting with people, Rev. Johnson has shown here that the New Testament is really a love letter from God, inviting people into honest and joyous relationships with him and each other. For a sample, here is an excerpt from 1 Corinthians 13: ". . . Love stays in difficult relationships with kindness . . . does not play one-upmanship, nor does it react to those who do. Love is not rude or grasping or overly sensitive . . . it keeps on keeping on. It trusts in God in every situation and expects God to act in all circumstances . . ."
