Read and study the following quotes from “A Humanitarian by Giving Us a Perfect Revelation,” chapter 20 of God—The Ultimate Humanitarian.
It is essential to always place God’s revelation over our reason and emotion. Far too often people reject a biblical teaching because they can’t understand it. Other times, they discard a teaching because of an emotional response. (i.e. “I can’t believe in a God who would send anybody to hell.”) Let God’s revelation reign supreme. In this book I have attempted do just that. I have strived to get out of the way and let the beauty and power of God’s Word dominate. It is my prayer that in some small way I have increased your appreciation for both our wonderful God and his wonderful word. It is my hope that you will be motivated to join me on this exhilarating journey of studying God’s Word and continually learn more about God, the ultimate humanitarian.
