Life is full of secrets. Could it be that there is a foothold in the midst of chaos?<\/p>\n

Are there solutions to the problems we face every day? What is the meaning of life? Is it possible to know why we humans exist at all and where we are going? Why is there so much suffering and death in this world? Is there life after death? Can we experience enlightenment today? Am I destined to lose all existence and become part of the great nothingness? Is it true that there are no real answers?<\/p>\n

There is an old book that deals with the many questions of life: The Bible.<\/p>\n

\"The Promised One\" opens our eyes to a message of hope.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is The promised one<\/em>the German edition of \u201eBy This Name.\u201c<\/a><\/p>\n

Below you will find the description of the English edition:<\/p>\n

You may have been told, \u201eI'm glad you've found your way to God, but everyone finds him in other places and other religions.\u201c So how do you share the gospel with someone who believes that God is present in all of nature? What do you say when your friend thinks of \u201eGod\u201c as a spiritual force or energy rather than a person? In a world where \u201espirituality\u201c has become popular and the knowledge of God has all but disappeared, how can you share the good news of Jesus Christ? Even the Western world has been influenced by cultures that believe in many gods.<\/p>\n

\u201eBy This Name\u201c explains the core message of the Bible for people who have no idea about the Bible. Based on the structure of the Gospel of John, the book clearly sets the God of the Bible apart from all other gods. It establishes the authority of the Holy Scriptures and carefully compares the biblical worldview with Eastern worldviews. It links key stories from the Old and New Testaments to reveal the identity of God and the nature of sin, with the aim of answering two questions: \u201eWho is Jesus?\u201c and \u201eWhat's the story of the cross and the tomb all about?\u201c The book helps people to understand what the Bible is all about.<\/p>\n

\u201eBy This Name follows a similar chronological structure to The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus, but differs by 60 per cent in content.<\/p>\n
