Star Rating: 5 / 5
Author Marilyn Taplin makes it clear that we have two choices: God or Satan. She lets us know that there really is no middle ground, and she goes to answer the questions:
What is sin
Why hasn’t Christianity saved the world by now?
Why can’t Christians get along with one another?
Why does America seem more immoral now than in the 1950s?
What’s gone wrong in America?
Why is there so much hurt and unhappiness?
Where does real happiness come from?
Where does hate originate?
What is love?
Does God love the sexually perverse?
What will really happen at the end of time?
How can I know I will go to heaven?
Where do we go when we die?
She uses the Bible and scripture. As a Christian, I can identify with all she is saying, and I appreciate that her biblical views can be controversial. I see this book as great for Bible study. The chapters that I enjoyed reading is The War Between Good and Evil and The Wise and the Foolish. I also enjoyed reading The Last Days. Taplin also breaks down the Ten Commandments and what they mean. She defines original sin as what happened in the Garden of Eden, and is very thorough in using the Bible as she dives into a sexuality discussion, which I can see being up for discussion and interpretation. There are somethings that she discussed that I was not comfortable with because that chapter wasn’t really my style of reading. She talks about the Bible as she sees it.
Overall, her theme is that, even as denominations, we should put our differences aside for the Body of Christ. “Every church needs to put aside its own doctrine and replace it with the doctrine of Jesus Christ: the law is from God and the law will unify the churches in truth.” In each commandment chapter, Talpin is very descriptive and detailed, which I appreciate. She points out that to get to the right place with God, we have to return back to him we have received, and that requires looking inward at ourselves. We can no longer blame others or things for our actions. I love how she ended the book stating the Lord’s prayer.
If you are looking for a good discussion of the Bible, I suggest you pick up this book.

Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your
favorite justification appeared to be at the net the easiest factor to
take note of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while other people consider concerns that they just do not know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the entire thing without having side-effects ,
other people can take a signal. Will likely be back
to get more. Thank you
May I just say what a comfort to discover somebody that genuinely
understands what they are discussing over the internet.
You definitely understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
More and more people have to read this and understand this
side of your story. I was surprised that you are not
more popular because you surely have the gift.
Thank you. I believe the reason why my book is not popular yet is because many believe it only judges and condemns. Yet, the opposite is true. My book gives light to a world in darkness. It will bring deliverance and forgiveness of sin. This is a book every pastor should read. The Bible tells us that God will heal our land when those who built this present day Christianity will clean up the Church. When clean, then God will give those who wanted to bring all people to God the ability to do so. We need a better Christianity. In the last days God will pour out his truth on all people. At that time we will have one denomination for truth will be the same for all. Yes, this is a book every pastor should read.
Thank you for touching my heart a friend recommended you and I am very happy she did please keep inspiring :)
I admire you
Thank you for your encouragement and kind words.
