Grace Bible

About this book

What if everything you thought you knew about God was wrong? This is the message at the heart of Jesus' parables. For too long, the parables of Jesus have been misused to promote dead works and self-righteousness. We need to take a fresh look at them. We don't need a parable to tell us to be good to our neighbors, but a parable may reveal that God longs to be good to us. Nor do we need a parable to tell us that God's kingdom is valuable, but a parable may reveal that you are precious to God and that he will gladly give up everything he has to win you. The parables of Jesus endure because they reveal what we desperately need to hear. They unveil the true nature of God and the relentless love and grace he has for all of us. With more than 1,200 insightful entries, The Grace Bible: The Parables of Jesus uncovers the new-covenant truths hidden in plain sight. If you're tired of being told you're not good enough or doing enough, see the gospel through the eyes of the Master Storyteller and be transformed. Key features: Introduction to "The Greatest Stories Ever Told" More than 1200 notes covering every verse and parable New covenant commentary Word-for-word translation (NASB) The perfect gift for graduation, confirmation, Christmas, and more Also available in ebook and hardcover formats Publisher: KingsPress.org
