yup. a book that should be on every christian's list of books to read.
i emptied a box of books on my bookshelf in my room, and a book i love caught my eye, so i started reading it before bed....
..."The Attributes of God", by Arthur W. Pink.
here's what caught me from chapter 1:
Analogy has been drawn between a savage finding a watch upon the sands, and from a close examination of it he infers a watch-maker. So far so good. But attempt to go further: suppose that savage sits down on the sand and endeavors to form to himself a conception of this watch-maker, his personal affections and manners; his disposition, aquirements, and moral character - all that goes to make up a personality; could he ever think or reason out a real man - the man who made the watch, so that he could say, "I am aquainted with him"? It seems trifling to ask such questions, but is the eternal and infinate God so much more within the grasp of human reason? No, indeed. The God of Scripture can only be known by those to whom He makes Himself known.
happy sighs.... yummy stuff!
Sounds great. Where'd you get the book? If you're done, how'd the rest of the book pan out.
