5.0 out of 5 stars The Gospel, May 28, 2001

By	Will Riddle "and Jaime Riddle" (Cincinnati) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

I have been searching for the truth now with all that I am for several years, and I believe that this book comes the closest I've found so far to presenting a totally scriptural Gospel, that is neither based on "cheap grace" or a legalistic grace negating self-righteousness. This book is very intensive on the Word, with few anecdotes, or personal notes, and its aim is to get you to fully believe and trust God's grace in every area of your life, and believe that that grace will change you and empower you to live the Christian life you've wanted to live since you got saved but couldn't. God bless your search for Him and His Kingdom!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tired of performing for God?, November 29, 1999

By	Jill Elaine (the South) - See all my reviews

In this book, Jim Richards graphically spells out the message of God's uncondtional love and acceptance of mankind... not just the believer. This book is challenging and insightful into tearing down the myths of legalism and right standing with God. Grace is God's ability and power to change... And in this book, Dr. Richards helps the reader understand, perhaps for the first time, how to truly make God's grace come alive in our everyday life. A must read for anyone searching for the truth about the nature of God!

5.0 out of 5 stars From mediocre Christianity to High Definition living, February 16, 2004

By	Junu Thomas "www.pilgrimsmap.com" (Memphis, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Grace: The Power to Change (Paperback)

My life I would say has literally changed after reading this book. One time reading is not enough. We need to sit with this book and the Bible and go hand in hand.

I have stopped laboring for God after I read it. Now I am at peace and rest. Because Christ has completed the work. I don't have to conquer any sins anymore, because he accomplished his mission on the cross. All I have to do is to say to myself Christ has finished the work. He has stripped Satan of all his powers and gained victory. Even death couldn't defeat him. Now I have the same victory too, where all evil is under my feet through Christ. As the book says where man's strength ends, God's strength begins.

MUST READ!
