I am currently reading a good book by Tim Keller, a pastor/theologian/writer in Manhattan. The title of the book is “Counterfeit Gods.” It deals with idols of our hearts that distract us from bringing glory to God with our lives. The book is not too long and would make a good read for anyone.
As I was reading John Piper’s article on the truthfulness of the gospel, his second point really stood out to me. How does the world explain away the lack of Jesus’ body?
