The God Who Commands The Impossible - McGuiggan (Print)

The God Who Commands the Impossible – "The "gentleman God" is not the God the prophets proclaimed and the bland "nice life" is not the life they called people to. Because the popular and fashionable God is so gentlemanly, the God the prophets speak of is almost a stranger to us. He is sterner that we're used to and so He speaks and acts in what looks to us like an "over-kill" manner." – by the author
