Book Description

January 1, 2000

Often a Bible passage's meaning is obvious. But sometimes Scriptures seem incomprehensible, even contradictory. How do we as believers correctly interpret these puzzling passages? The author of What If Jesus Had Never Been Born? and What If the Bible Had Never Been Written? takes an in-depth look at passages of Scripture that are difficult to understand. From an overview of the dichotomy of faith versus works to the meaning behind I John 3:9 ("Whoever has been born of God does not sin." [NKJV], Solving Bible Mysteries offers powerful insight on some of Christianity's challenging questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Demystifies the Bible for Sincere Seekers of Truth, September 9, 2000
By 
B.D. (Rancho San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Solving Bible Mysteries: Unraveling the Perplexing and Troubling Passages of Scripture (Paperback)
Masterful, well-researched/documented and very approachable for all audiences. Continues the great tradition of helping Bible students, seekers, skeptics, sages and saints wrestle with genuine and apparent Bible mysteries that have puzzled thoughtful readers for centuries. This book places Kennedy in the all-time great apologist list including C.S.Lewis, Josh McDowell, John MacArthur, Hank Hanegraaf, Walter Martin, R.C. Sproul, Norman Geisler and more recently Lee Strobel. Dr. Kennedy is wise to maintain mystery where Scripture does not reveal complete information to resolve; but where genuine progress can be made to understand apparent contradictions, doctrinal dichotomy, paradox, antinomy, this resource provides fresh material for resolution as far as humanly possible. Although obviously a scholar with a penetrating intellect, Dr. Kennedy keeps the conversation practical and down to earth for a wide audience. The goal is not merely information for the mind, but transformation of the heart and edification of the soul. This book achieves all three. It would make a great gift for searching friends who have sincere doubts about the Bible, but it also pulls no punches about the more troubling, difficult truths that need to be faced squarely and reflectively. Well done! Another must-read addition to the personal library!

5.0 out of 5 stars Solving Bible Mysteries through Truth, April 16, 2010
This review is from: Solving Bible Mysteries: Unraveling the Perplexing and Troubling Passages of Scripture (Paperback)
In "Solving Bible Mysteries: Unraveling the Perplexing and Troubling Passages of Scripture" the late great D. James Kennedy delivers an alluring volume that addresses many biblical and theological mysteries. He employs everyday language as he gives fine exposition of many "problem passages" in the biblical text. If you have been confronted by skeptics who throw around scripture in order to try to confound you, herein Dr. Kennedy helps solve numerous theological vexations as provides many reasonable solutions.



Within "Solving Bible Mysteries" the reader will discover:

- How predestination relates to man's will
- Why the God of love sends sinners to everlasting hell
- What is real eternal security
- How to solve alleged bible contradictions
- Why the doctrine of the Trinity is not a contradiction
- And much more.

The author offers potent and orthodox elucidation concerning creation, the Trinity, Christ's resurrection, and much more. This is a fine book to add to an apologist's collection of books regarding of bible difficulties. Evidential in its epistemic platform as Kennedy argues with great rigor like a trained barrister.

Also see a book that demonstrates the existence of God by employing moral absolutes:

Luke 8:10 And He said, "To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ` Seeing they may not see, And hearing they may not understand.'"
