Missing Verses: 15 Beliefs the Bible Doesn't Teach

by Brian M. Rossiter

Our world is full of misconceptions about what the Bible teaches. While many of them originate outside of the church, the truth is that some come from within it. In Missing Verses, Brian M. Rossiter examines some of the most prevalent examples of where popular thought doesn't mesh with biblical principles. This includes 15 different beliefs, such as:

All Sins are Equal
Everything is God's Will
People are Suffering in Hell
Angels Don't Have Bodies
More than just providing historical and interpretive insight into these questions, Rossiter asks that we evaluate them for ourselves. With the help of guided discussion questions, this is an ideal text for both personal and group study.

A fairly quick but insightful read. I had not thought of several of these topics, though most of them are definitely common and widespread. The sections about the gift of tongues, Jesus’ resurrection body, and that all sins are NOT equal were especially interesting. I read this by myself, but I can see getting some pretty vibrant discussions out of it in a group atmosphere. It’s definitely worth the time.
