Subject: MESSAGE-A Good Effort, But Not a Bible |
Bible Note: MESSAGE-A Good Effort, But Not a Bible [The following is an excerpt from a customer review of THE MESSAGE by Eugene Peterson. Although not written by me, it perfectly expresses my opinion of THE MESSAGE. --Kalos] 'A Good Effort, For Whatever It Is: But A Bible, It Isn't' 'In my opinion "The Messsage" is not a bible at all, but more of a running commentary of the bible.' When you've read THE MESSAGE 'do not be persuaded you have read THE Bible; you haven't, any more than seeing "West Side Story" enables you to say you have seen "Romeo and Juliet." I'd much prefer the reader try a real Bible first in order to claim s/he's read "The Bible,"' ____________________ www.amazon.com |
