Revealed and Perceived - Kim Mung
- Four Perspectives
There are more than two sides to every story.
Kim Mung is a youth leader, evangelist, teacher, and student of God's Word who has come to an important truth: no one looks at the world in the exact same way. Our backgrounds, lifestyles, upbringing, and religion shape who we are and how we see. But how do our myriad opinions, views, and perspectives fare when they are faced with the immutable, unchangeable, and true Word of God? The well-known proverb declares, "Every word of God proves true; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him" (Prov. 30:5). The Bible is God's true Word, and yet we do not all agree about how the Bible should be interpreted, what Jesus said, and how it applies to our lives today.
Kim Mung has teamed up with editor and Bible student Hakeem Brown to shine a light on the various perspectives in the world of faith today and see how they measure against the Word of God. Many preachers and teachers will say there are only two sides to every story and argument from the Bible. Right and wrong. Their way and your way. But Kim and Hakeem challenge this notion by inspecting doctrines, passages, and topics from four prevailing comparative and contrasting perspectives. You may not agree with some of these perspectives. The authors don't even agree with some of them. But they believe you cannot come to the full truth until you give voice to all perspectives. The perspectives presented in this book are not the only ones you can have, but they are the most commonly held beliefs on the topics being discussed. Ultimately, every perspective must be measured by God's Word. If you're a believer hungry for more understanding, a nonbeliever seeking for the truth, or just someone who feels there is more to God's Word than has been told, this book is for you.
