Book excerpt: If our minds are unable to grasp even theconceptof eternity, how can we possibly understand the many biblical truths written from theperspectiveof eternity? When we misunderstand each other using the written and spoken word, why does God use these means to communicate with us?Reaching for Eternal Truthsbegins with the understanding that definitive answers to these questions are elusive for finite minds. Yet author Donald Rhody demonstrates the merit in the endeavor as he examines such difficult questions as: bull; How is it possible for the sovereignty of God and the free will of man to coexist? bull; If we are saved by grace, what is the role of good works? bull; When God desired to give the early Israelites a covenant sign, why did he choose circumcision? bull; What is our relationship to creation?Reaching for Eternal Truthswill guide you as you begin your own explorations into these questions. It provides a scriptural foundation, not the entire structure; beginnings of discovery, not complete answers. The goal is to bring us closer to understanding God and our place in his world. Whatever you finally discover, you will emerge from your quest spiritually stronger, intellectually more alert, and with a new realization that there is much more to learn in the continual search for truth.
