This book saved my life!! One of my favorite books ever...besides the Bible. I learned the truth about God and got all the answers to my religious questions by using this book along with my Catholic Bible. The book What Does The Bible Really Teach is today's version of this study book.
I loved this book when I read it originally years ago. It puts basic bible doctrine in a way that anyone can understand and answers vital questions to make life satisfying.
The "Blue Bomb". This book really shock things up with its to the point approach to subjects. It's clarity and pertinence to our daily lives touched millions and answered the questions that each human has, such as "Who is God?, Why do we grow old and die?, and Where are the dead?

This Is One of Best Books Ever Printed. The Day My Mom Got Baptized. Is The Day She Received A Copy." The Truth Book. The Truth That Leads To Eternal Life
This book drew me into the cult of Jehovah’s “Christian” Witnesses, where I was ensnared for a decade. The bottom line of their teaching is that if you don’t believe what they believe and join them by Armageddon (which has been just around the corner for around 150 years now, in their view), the great “loving” God Jehovah will sic his son Jesus on you, he’ll slay you, and you’ll be dead eternally.
But they don’t believe in hell. What a consolation!
This book is what JWism used to to be, their doctrenes have changed so much since this book was writen its hard to relate the two. I doubt many of those giving anything more than a 2 star rating for this book actually read it because it should make them start to wake up.
