The best book on the Gospel

Besides the Bible what is the best book on the gospel? People always say “I dont read books I just read the Bible.” This is actually a statement rebelling against the book of Ephesians which speaks of the teachers God has gifted the church. Yes every book should be TESTED by scripture and scripture is the only inspired authority but books have helped me lots and lots to understand the Bible, and besides as a former graduate student I would have flunked out if I said that I would not read books for I only will read the Bible.

Romans 7: Believer or Unbeliever?

The interpretation of Romans 7 is long disputed. My wife once told me that as a Christian teen she read Romans 7:14ff in the Living Bible and thought, “That is me!” Was she wrong in her hermeneutics? Is Paul talking about his Christian or pre-Christian experience in this very auto-biographical chapter?
