The Dust and the Glory

About the Book

Without serious argument, Genesis is at once the most fascinating and compelling and the most misunderstood book in the Bible. The foundation of the Gospel and the Historic Christian Church is laid down in the first eight chapters. Without a proper understanding of what took place there, why, and when, there is no Gospel. Dr. Cripe uses his winsome method of teaching, his God-given wisdom and knowledge, his elegant, eloquent, and lucid writing style, and his gifts as a Christian mystic to unlock and discuss secrets that have lain dormant and hidden for far too long. In this book, Earl takes on the humanists who seek to make the creation account something other than literal and exposes their nefarious agendas. In this book essential, elusive, and transcendent questions are asked and answered: Where did evil come from? Was the serpent the devil? Why did God put the Tree of the knowledge of Good and Evil in the Garden? Why did God give the serpent access to Eve? Did the Genesis Flood Happen? Was it universal? What is the testimony of the earth around us regarding this question? In the end of the age when the fury of the dragon is being unleashed against the Bible, belief in God, and the integrity of the historic church, we cannot imagine a more vital and timely book for all who seek find truth in the foment of a caldron of lies and disinformation. If you are a dedicated and sincere seeker for truth, The Dust and the Glory will supply you with vital and needed information, and will make a better Christian of you.
