You may never look at Christianity the same way again. This book is coming from a very objective, open-minded and scholarly perspective. It is not coming from a fundamentalist or denominational or judgmental or dogmatic perspective. It is an attempt to show what has been found in quite a long and thorough search of the NT in the Greek. After thirty years of reading, studying and researching the Greek NT scriptures, the author of this book discovered that the Greek NT is teaching Jesus followers to be on the journey of living out the faith that Jesus Himself taught, lived out and exemplified.Paul was misunderstood by the Protestant Reformers and is still being misunderstood, in part because our Bibles are being mistranslated to agree with the Reformers with regard to faith. Paul was teaching that obeying God and Christ is required for salvation. Only he was rabbinically placing the works of obeying Jesus inside the vehicle of faith. And his "not by works", something Jesus was not teaching, was aimed at the Judaizers and legalistic Pharisaism of his day, not those who were striving to do what Jesus instructed and exampled. Some of the modern confusion is because many do not understand that Christianity is a covenantal-nomistic system (a covenant system with law) which requires the works of obedience to law (cf. John 15:1-17). Paul was teaching obedience to the law of Christ as he was teaching the "faith of Jesus"--the faith that Jesus taught and exemplified. He was not merely teaching us to have faith in Jesus. This book goes through much evidence, including different translations, Greek lexicons and various other witnesses and proofs showing that Paul was teaching that following and obeying Jesus, being on the journey of living out the faith that Jesus taught, lived out and exemplified, is the type of faith that God is looking for.About the author: Andrew Parker was a successful computer programmer analyst who turned his talent toward diligently searching through the scriptures in their original languages.

He was at the top of his classes in graduate level Greek and Hebrew. He studied Greek and Greek New Testament under Dr. Carroll D. Osburn, a note-worthy New Testament textual critic.
