GOVERNMENT VS GOD by Fenton Ward

What I expected and what I read were not the same, but I don’t always read the subtitles when choosing a book for review. GOVERNMENT VS GOD,  Twenty-First Century Insights into Revelation, A First Century Riddle  by Fenton Ward is actually a study of the book of Revelation.

Chapter by Chapter GOVERNMENT VS GOD shares insight as to how what is going on in the world today has been written about in Scripture. Though it is easy to read it may not be easy to digest, those who are comfortable with the book of Revelation and have some knowledge as to what is going on in the world will have no difficulty getting through the almost 300 page text.

This book is a study- manual and not really something you would get for casual reading. Though I recomend it for reading, for me it took a while to get through it. But, whenever I read non-fiction I like to evaluate the truthfullness of what is being written, this takes time. Not only does the author reference other books in the Bible, which is expected, he also references non-biblical ideologies / philosophies such as Marxism.

This book is more important today than ever before since many individuals are embracing a marred presentation of what it means to be a follower of Christ.  GOVERENMENT VS GOD presents a systematic study of the world today by applying the book of Revelation to the modern Believer.    — written by Marsha L F Randolph

MUSLIM by Hank Hanegraaff

I had two preconceived notions prior to reading MUSLIM by Hank Hanegraaff. I read some of the reviews, something I rarely do, they were mixed and this swayed me to my second prejudice. One of my neighbors is a Muslim and I get along with his entire family very well. Even though I was skeptical about this book I felt it would be something important I needed to read.

“Many Muslims are peaceful and tolerant; however, the history of Islam demonstrates conclusively that it is not a peaceful and tolerant religion.” This sentence found in the introduction(page xiv) help me to open my mind for what was to come.

There are 74 pages of notes, 188 pages of text. In addition there is a glossary of terms many have heard on the news as well as: a general index, Scripture index and a Qur’an index. The information presented is in a systematic way that will help the reader understand Islam, including who Muhammad is, and the significance of Sharia. If this is not enough there is also a suggested reading list of books for anyone who chooses to learn more.

This is an important read, particularly for Christians because as it states on the cover Islam is “The World’s Fastest-Growing Relgion.” I would suggest every Believer study their Bible of course but also “Know What You Need to Know About” what it means to be MUSLIM “The Worlds Fastest Growing Religion.”  — written by Marsha L F Randolph
