Looking beneath the surface Liber Aguiar

Looking Beneath the Surface deals with the issues of God's revelation to man in the different aspects of personal and social life. We approach some of the so-called "biblical mysteries" considering both a scientific and historical perspective and from the point of view of biblical linguistics. The theological implications of this book's message will help today's Christians to face the daily challenges brought on by cults, non-believers and society at large. Christians will develop a greater sense of personal responsibility for their ongoing study and enrich their own theological understanding. They will also understand the greatness of God's love in entrusting us with such gifts. Today's Christians are constantly assaulted on all sides with greater and greater biases against Christianity. Some come from an atheistic skepticism, assuming their ideas and thoughts are modern and therefore solid. Others take advantage of Christians' general lack of knowledge regarding the context of the Bible to fill the void with historical and scientific untruths. Historically, Christians have replaced philosophers, reformed scholastic thinking and presented some of the greatest challenges to society. We as a group have not been defeated because we follow an archaic doctrine. This book revives old discussions and submits new challenges to today's Christian. Several topics discussed have depth that is usually debated in closed "advanced theology" groups, but we have made an effort to present them in a way that is understandable for most people. The reader will be encouraged to go beyond what is contained in this book, for in it there are many clues and answers to some of the most challenging issues we deal with today.
