Line Upon Line: Understanding the One True God Revealed in Jesus Christ (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798185441688)

Who is God, really?

Not the God of Sunday school flannel boards. Not the God reduced to a chart with three circles and confusing arrows. The actual God of scripture, the one Moses stood before at a burning bush, the one Isaiah saw high and lifted up, the one who walked dusty roads in Galilee with nail scarred hands and said, he that hath seen me hath seen the Father.

For centuries, church councils and creeds have tried to explain God using words the apostles never spoke and categories the prophets never imagined. Somewhere along the way, the simple, overwhelming truth got buried under philosophy. This book digs it back up.

Line Upon Line takes you through the entire story of scripture, from Genesis to Revelation, and lets the Bible answer its own question. Who was on that cross. Who sat on that throne. Who filled that upper room with fire. You will walk through the Shema, the burning bush, the virgin birth, the baptism of Jesus, the book of Acts, and the mystery of godliness itself, and you will see one thread running through all of it, unbroken, unashamed, and undeniable.

This is not a book for the casual reader looking for a comfortable spiritual pat on the back. This is a book for the one who is hungry for truth, who has questions the traditional answers never quite settled, and who is ready to meet God as He actually revealed Himself, not as tradition rearranged Him.

Written with the heart of a pastor and the depth of a teacher, Pastor James Ashley walks you through scripture line upon line, precept upon precept, until the picture is unmistakable. God is not divided. God is not distant. God became flesh and dwelt among us, and that same God is still pouring out His Spirit today.

If you have ever wondered who Jesus really is, this book was written for you.

Open it. And let the scripture speak for itself.
