  Why is it that so many Christians read these as metaphors: 
  "The Whore of Babylon" (Revelation 17:5) 
  "Pluck out your eye" (Matthew 5:29) 
  "Strain a gnat, swallow a camel" (Matthew 23:24) 
  "Salt of the Earth" (Matthew 5:13) 
  "Living Stones" (1 Peter 2:5) 
  "A Thorn in the Flesh" (2 Corinthians 12:7) 
  "The Lamb of God" (John 1:29) 
  While reading these literally: 
  "The Lake of Fire" (Revelation 20:14-15) 
  "Unquenchable Fire" (Matthew 3:12) 
  "Weeping and Gnashing of Teeth" (Matthew 8:12) 
  "Worm That Never Dies" (Mark 9:48) 
  "Furnace of Fire" (Matthew 13:42) 
  "Outer Darkness" (Matthew 22:13) 
  "Fire and Brimstone" (Revelation 21:8) 
  While my 340-page book, HELL: A Jewish Perspective on a Christian Doctrine, has received tremendous reviews, I understand that not everyone has the time to read such a lengthy work. So, if you’re looking for answers, this new, concise, standalone book focuses on the "hellfire verses" in the Bible, examining them within their original Jewish context. This small book is an excerpt (Part III) from my 2024 book on Hell, created especially for those with limited time! 
  In this short 140-page book, we will journey through Bible verses that Fundamentalists believe reference the Eternal Conscious Torment view of hell (aka "Hellfire"; an abusive physical, mental, and emotional punishment that lasts forever). The book will provide an easy-to-read, contextualized commentary to refute the popular Augustinian-Calvinistic view. We will also explore the meanings of four distinct Hebrew and Greek words frequently translated as "hell" in English.

  Jesus is Calling You - Hearing...

  During the Apostle Paul’s third visit to the city of Corinth, around 57 A.D., he took time to write a letter to a group of Christian believers in Rome that he had never met.  The letter, known as the book of Romans in the New Testament, is arguably one of the greatest letters we have from the Apostle. In 16 chapters the Apostle explains righteousness in four ways: Our need to be righteous; How righteousness has been provided for us; How we are forgiven by righteousness; and How righteousness is practiced.  
  Romans lays out a roadmap to show non-believers the steps to be being reconciled with God and obtaining salvation. This roadmap, often called the Romans Road to Salvation, tell us that everyone has sinned, the penalty of sin is death and that by God’s gift we may have eternal life.  
  Reading the Bible is different than reading any other book. It is more than a narrative about God, it is more than a story of broken individuals and the trials they faced. It is more than a set of rules and regulations. It is even more than a love letter. It is the very essence of Jesus. It is about Him, but there is more than that. It is God’s conversation with us. It is alive. It is active. It is a 2-way conversation. 
  When we need wisdom, insight, guidance, how do we hear what God is saying to us? God has given us the Bible. It’s a powerful and intimate way to listen to Him and it is the primary way God tells us about Himself. In Jesus is Calling You one or more books of the Bible is presented with steps to hearing from God, the plan of salvation and growing in faith. It is my prayer Jesus uses these books to help you hear Him.

  A Word & Way 2022 Book of the Year 
  Sojourners' 2022 Book Roundup to Inspire Faith and Justice 
   
  "Extraordinary. . . . Let this story of family, race, and resistance create anger in your spirit and ultimately inspire your heart to join the work to heal our nation and eventually our world."--Otis Moss III (from the foreword) 
   
  Drawing on her lifelong journey to know her family's history, leading Christian activist Lisa Sharon Harper recovers the beauty of her heritage, exposes the brokenness that race has wrought in America, and casts a vision for collective repair. 
   
  Harper has spent three decades researching ten generations of her family history through DNA research, oral histories, interviews, and genealogy. Fortune, the name of Harper's first nonindigenous ancestor born on American soil, bore the brunt of the nation's first race, gender, and citizenship laws. As Harper traces her family's story through succeeding generations, she shows how American ideas, customs, and laws robbed her ancestors--and the ancestors of so many others--of their humanity and flourishing. 
   
  Fortune helps readers understand how America was built upon systems and structures that blessed some and cursed others, allowing Americans of European descent to benefit from the colonization, genocide, enslavement, rape, and exploitation of people of color. As Harper lights a path through national and religious history, she clarifies exactly how and when the world broke and shows the way to redemption for us all. The book culminates with a powerful and compelling vision of truth telling, reparation, and forgiveness that leads to Beloved Community. It includes a foreword by Otis Moss III, illustrations, and a glossy eight-page black-and-white insert featuring photos of Harper's family.
