Great material!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I have never understood just who the Pharisees were, but this book really opened my eyes. They had good intentions, like we all do, but eventually became grossly side-tracked in their efforts to uphold the law. Great book!
Great study
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This is a great in-depth study on the history and development of the Pharisees. My opinion of Pharisees was basically a negative one until I studied this book. This book will give you a true study on how the Pharisees started, developed and their place in history. I recommend it highly for a study book to add to your library.
Insight into straying from a pathway
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
People who are otherwise morally upright, insightful into their own spiritually and that of other people, and alert to errors in thinking and behavior, often fall victim to their own righteousness. This book by William Coleman gives a thorough and theologically sound study into this sort of tendency and it causes the reader to look at his or her own biases.As St. Augustine said, "Never fight evil as though it arose from outside of ourselves." [Hope I didn't mangle that too much!] That is a major point in this delightful book. But it also explores the tendency of people to commit the same errors that they criticize. It is an easy book to read and yet it challenges the reader to explore a number of issues. After reading the book, I have used it in two Boble study classes, and it went over very well with a range of personality and philosophy types. Perhaps more importantly, it has made me more alert to my own attitudes!
Total Holiness the Pharisee Way
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book is an easy reading look at the Pharisees and how the maligned sect actually began with sincere love of God and a devotion to serving Him...and how that turned into intolerance, bigotry and narrowmindedness. The book opened my eyes to see how easily I personally and churches as a whole can go down that same path. The book is great!
