Christian Confrontation at its' best - The Jesus You Can't Ignore, August 6, 2010

I have been blessed with reading and listening to God’s Word, as well as reading other books by author’s who have such a profound understanding of the will of God and of the Cross of Jesus Christ.

I recently finished reading John MacArthur’s book “The Jesus You Can’t Ignore” and must say it was a hard book to put down.  In a world of political correctness, it was refreshing to look at the subject most mainstream Christians tend to avoid: Christian Confrontation.  Best-selling author John MacArthur gives readers a fresh look at how Jesus addressed attacks against the truth.

The book does a great job of explaining the need for Christians to confront those in the world who need it.  MacArthur cuts right to the heart of the matter by looking solely at Christ’ example by looking at who he directly confronted in His ministry: the proud Pharisees and Sadducees.

In addition to providing solid examples and Scriptural support, MacArthur also spends a great deal of time explaining a lot of the history surrounding the environment of Jesus’ day.  After reading this book, I have a clearer understanding of the “Rules of Engagement” as well as a better understanding for the need for confrontation in some settings to provide growth.

I would highly recommend reading this book
