Counterfeit Gods: The Empty Promises of Money, Sex, and Power, and the Only Hope that Matters Best Quality

If you are awestruck by Keller's previous works, then you might love this and read it without questioning his logic. What you would miss is that Keller often ignores parts of the Bible stories that contradict what he concludes regarding them. No doubt he has some good conclusions regarding idolatry, but his use of the Bible narratives is horrible. He takes too many liberties, assigning psychological profiles to characters' lives without sufficient evidence to do so and ignoring any evidence of the contrary. One example of this is Keller's conclusion that Jacob "certainly had no sense of God's love and care" (p. 27). One might agree with that, unless they went back to the Bible story itself and saw that Keller had left out a contradictory passage (Genesis 28:10-22, where God blesses Jacob and Jacob accepts God's blessing). There are multiple problems like this throughout Keller's book, which is why I must think that Keller just wrote this to make some extra money and not to honestly teach what the Bible says is true.Get more detail about Counterfeit Gods: The Empty Promises of Money, Sex, and Power, and the Only Hope that Matters.
