5.0 out of 5 stars The Miracle of the Scarlet Thread, September 27, 2000

This review is from: The Miracle of the Scarlet Thread (Paperback)

Well, let me put it this way--I have bought the book twice, lent it out, and haven't been able to get it back either time! It is well-written, providing that missing link, so to speak, for much we--as gentiles--don't understand about Jewish tradition and the crucial matter of covenant. It is not until these things are understood that we can truly comprehend and appreciate the blood covenant. I recommend the book highly--but be careful about lending it out!

This review is from: The Miracle of the Scarlet Thread (Paperback)

This is the most annointed book I have ever read. It helped me put the pieces together. I can see Jesus more clearly in the Old Testament and understand what he is saying to us in the New. Reading this book was like putting a jigsaw puzzle together and seeing the complete picture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for Christians and curious non-Christians!!!, May 26, 2001

This review is from: The Miracle of the Scarlet Thread (Paperback)

If I would have read this book 10 years ago, I believe I would have been a Christian for 10 more years. Booker is a fantastic teacher, analyzing events in the Old Covenant [Testament] and how they forshadow and point to the New Covenant. This book explains the steps in the covenant, which so many people do not know about. I myself was one of those people. The book takes you through the old priestly customs and rituals and how they point to our High Priest, Jesus. It also answers questions like "Why couldn't anyone touch Jesus while he was ascending?" and "Why was Jesus called the Son of Man?" This book is an absolute must-have! Essential! Keep it with your Bible!
