5.0 out of 5 stars Review by Lawrence Davis, April 26, 2006

This review is from: God Has Spoken (Paperback)

This wonderful book is written with the premise our churches suffer from "a famine of hearing the words of our Lord" despite the availability and advantages of a plethora of Biblical tools, expositors, and communicative mediums. Packer analyzes the reasons for the churches' spiritual lethargy, which has evolved due to faulty presuppositions and perceptions that have indoctrinated themselves into the Christian mindset through modern Biblical criticism and current philosophical trends. Packer addresses these errant views and reestablishes the proper Biblical precepts necessary for the church to regain its perspicacity and vitality in studying the Word of God.
