Lifted Up Between a Pharisee & a Thief - James Murphy - Bog

A parallel verse-by-verse commentary on the Gospel of John from two very different perspectives and addressing two very different audiences: a Messianic Jewish Rabbi speaking to his home congregation, and a convicted felon - a Gentile - teaching a class of brand-new converts ... as a prisoner himself. The Gospel of John contains some of the Bible's best-known verses ("For God so loved the world ...") yet also some of its most profound truths. "Lifted Up" challenges conventional views of the Gospel while highlighting the power of God not only to bring His own Chosen People to faith, but also to transform lives shattered by rebellion, addiction and sin. It is a volume not to be missed by the sincere follower of the First-Century Jewish Rabbi most of us call Jesus, whose Hebrew name is Yeshua.
