Late Breaking News: Reconsidering the Gospel of the New Testament

Is it possible that the gospel so often heard in churches today isn’t the real good news of the New Testament? Could it be that the core message of Jesus and the writers of the New Testament isn’t what’s usually preached and taught? As this book asserts, Christianity as commonly promoted and practiced often bears little or no resemblance to the faith of the Messiah-people of the New Testament. How did that happen, and what does Scripture actually present as the late breaking news of the gospel? Besides (as the Appendix asks), what kind of God are we really talking about when we express our faith? The author’s conclusions may surprise and even annoy you, whatever your take on the true nature of the Bible’s message. But if you’re open to looking at the Scriptures from a new angle, you may find some of his suggestions food for thought.
