Books like this are scarce. The distinction of God Himself as the gift of the Gospel over against the gifts that God gives is an important distinction. Some might think it splitting hairs but they are wrong. God is the goal and the greatest gift of the Gospel. This vital truth is what is missing from so much popular American theology and prosperity proponents cannot even smell where it crossed the road. I highly recommend this book. It is worth several reads.
