An attempt to correct some Christians’ view of themselves and how God sees them to something more Biblical – the truth that He sees us as having ‘the righteousness of Christ’. The author, in his job as president of LifeCourse Ministries, comes across many Christians crippled, imprisoned and rendered ineffectual by their false conviction that only utter perfection in His children pleases God. To counter this, he first lays a firm scriptural foundation and then the different ways in which the error can manifest itself are discussed and addressed. I suspect every reader will come across some familiar aspect of themselves at some point! Ralph Harris lists the faults of the Corinthian congregation, and then quotes the grace-filled opening paragraph of Paul’s first letter to them as a contrast to the greeting he might have been expected to write. The whole purpose of the book is that people might be healed of their misconceptions and become the Christians they were meant to be, and examples of successes in this area are given. All-in-all a worthwhile read and one to pass on to others as well.
