The Christian religion is supposed to provide answers to some of life's most important questions, yet Christians must address and answer some very important questions that pose an interesting conundrum. For instance, is the Bible inerrant and, if so, does Christianity completely follow the Bible? Did the Messiah abolish the Commandments by fulfilling the Law? Should Christians obey the Commandments? Did the Christian Church replace the Covenant Assembly of Israel? These are just a few of the questions addressed in this straight forward and hard hitting book that goes to the heart of the Christian belief system. In this book the origins of Christianity and the teachings of the Messiah are examined and placed within their original context. The Scriptures that define the Christian faith are detailed and compared to the traditions promoted by modern Christianity. Most Christians will likely be shocked to discover that the religion they ascribe to is not the same faith lived and taught by the Messiah. The passage of centuries and millennia of time has resulted in many traditions that have redefined the religion and have obscured the Scriptural truths that are at the heart of the Christian faith. This has resulted in a conundrum as many people think that they are following the teachings of the Messiah but they actually are not. The problem stems from the fact that most people are raised with certain inherited beliefs and rarely do they take the time to investigate their authenticity. Every person should make the effort to assess the substance and origins of their traditions and beliefs. This book takes on widely held religious traditions and examines them in light of the Scriptures. It exposes the conflict that has developed between certain traditions and the truth. Prepare for a frank and eye-opening discussion on this most important issue which will strengthen your faith and help you to resolve the Christian Conundrum.

The portrait of an angry God, quick to condemn, that many people claim to find in the pages of the Bible is undoubtedly one of the greatest obstacles to faith. The modern tendency to efface all traces of anger from our image of God is therefore comprehensible. But might this procedure not risk mutilating the authentic character of the biblical God? Could the theme of divine wrath, properly understood, rather than being a primitive vestige or an aberration, perhaps offer a key to understanding a love “as fierce as death,” an approach to the mystery of our redemption in Christ? That is the challenge that this book attempts to take up.

Whether expressed in theological or secular terms, evil poses a problem about the world's intelligibility. It confronts philosophy with fundamental questions: Can there be meaning in a world where innocents suffer? Can belief in divine power or human progress survive a cataloging of evil? Is evil profound or banal? Neiman argues that these questions impelled modern philosophy. Traditional philosophers from Leibniz to Hegel sought to defend the Creator of a world containing evil. Inevitably, their efforts--combined with those of more literary figures like Pope, Voltaire, and the Marquis de Sade--eroded belief in God's benevolence, power, and relevance, until Nietzsche claimed He had been murdered. They also yielded the distinction between natural and moral evil that we now take for granted. Neiman turns to consider philosophy's response to the Holocaust as a final moral evil, concluding that two basic stances run through modern thought. One, from Rousseau to Arendt, insists that morality demands we make evil intelligible. The other, from Voltaire to Adorno, insists that morality demands that we don't.
