• One of my first resources that focused more on what scripture actually says and means instead of focusing on someones interpretation of the theology that seemingly puffs up one's position. While I don't necessary agree with every conclusion, it does direct the reader to looking at the context of passages that are commonly used to justify a Calvinistic view. This book simply looks at the verses preceding or following a passage in question to better understand what the meaning of the verse it and many times, the meaning conflicts with a Calvinistic viewpoint. That is a great place to start in understanding the Bible. Too many times we start with a theological position and working it into Scripture instead of the other way around.
