Autorenporträt
The author has used a pen name in order to divert focus from himself and cast it upon the book and the issues raised by it. Salvation: It's Simple Do We Doubt It is being written from the point of view of a layman who has traversed three different denominations and seen how they present the gospel. The issues raised must be prayerfully pondered and the Holy Spirit's leading invoked. Unlike many, this author does not purport to be authoritative, but is writing to encourage folks to give careful consideration to how they present the gospel.
