Review of The Truth About Grace

“The Truth About Grace” by John MacArthur , which I received to review from book sneeze.com, is a great book which tackles one of the foundational truths of Christianity. It is part of a three-book series from MacArthur. The book introduces grace and explains what it is, how you receive it and why today’s common beliefs are wrong. This book is a must read. It’s a short book of about 100 pages, but it is packed full of truth. Several times I found myself convicted or thinking over issues addressed in the book. MacArthur backs every statement with scripture. He doesn’t just use one basic scripture, but instead uses several verses. One he commonly uses is when Paul asks should we sin more to attain grace? Definitely not. Unlike “The Truth About Forgiveness,” MacArthur does not center the entire book around a couple of bible stories. The impact is equally as powerful. I recommend it to anyone interested in either growing in their walk or learning more about the Christian faith. I look forward to reading through the last book in the series although it may be after my two week trip to Uganda before I can tackle it. I don’t think it’ll last more than a couple of hours on my flight over there. Check this book out as soon as you can and you won’t be disappointed.
