This booklet is a very concise, excellent presentation of the Gospel and questions that anyone should be asking themselves. It is presented in easy to understand questions and answers. I highly recommend it!

Order #: 002-5022114-0773803 * 1 of: Ultimate Questions (10 Pack) by John Blanchard [Paperback] from Seller: the_book_depository_
After receiving confirmation of the above order, I received only ONE of the 10 Pack of booklets, and my follow-up resulted in the statement that it had erroneously been listed and was not available in a 10-pack, so I would receive a full refund. I'm STILL WAITING.

The author packs alot of information in this tiny book and addresses all the major issues, such as creation, sin, hell, the cross, salvation and more! Also available in other languages and can be found on the CBD website if not on Amazon.

The booklet, Ultimate Questions, by John Blanchard asks some serious questions about God, man, Jesus Christ, Repentance and faith and living a new life in Christ. It is primarily used as an evangelistic tool to bring the unbeliever to a knowledge of God and faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

Scripture is quoted extensively to corroborate what Blanchard says and it is always italicized. The big disappointment comes when the scripture references are all lumped together in the back of the book instead of where they are quoted. As a consequence, only a student of the bible would have some idea of what the reference might be. Oftentimes two or three references have to be looked up before the correct one is found that corresponds to the one quoted. For the most part the individuals being evangelized wouldn't have a clue. And they are the primary users of this booklet. In this instance, I think Blanchard lost sight of his audience. In his defense, the references are at least broken down by what page in the booklet they appear on.

Writers should avoid taking shortcuts that save them a little time, effort and book size one time up front, but cause countless others to have to contend with those shortcuts time and again.

This is an adequate display of the truth of Christianity to be used for witnessing. However, it leaves too much room for many dangers within the church, but only because it does not address these issues.

I read this booklet given to me by a co-worker in hopes it would have some shred of logical, or reasonable evidence that god exists. However I was very disappointed that Blachard uses the same old arguements such as ID theory, the cosmological arguement, and the moral arguement to support his primary theory that god does exist. Such theories have been disproven logically countless times by many, many, many people. Also to suggest that no expert has ever disproved a single statement in the Bible is just plain wrong. This type of apologetic slop may convice those who don't really want to think about the issues, or Christians who are biased and already believe in God and are just reading for confirmation of their faith. For convincing anyone else I think the text is nothing but useless drivel. I agree though the pictures are nice.
