During the post-war era in Communist East Germany in the seventies, Karen von Wagner is enjoying her life in East Berlin. She had grown up indebted and grateful to the GDR for giving her an excellent education in the arts in spite of what her father had done and was imprisoned for--guilty of war crimes as an SS Nazi. He had been arrested and taken to prison when she was barely five. At fifteen, she was told by an official he had died in Siberia. She had always been ashamed of him for his diabolical crimes and felt no remorse. In fact, she was glad he was dead. In her schooling, she achieved high marks in most of her classes, if not all. By twenty-one, she had become East Germany's famous act...
"Divide And Conquer..." is a study in "rightly dividing the word of truth" (II Timothy 2:15). The study demonstrates the diametric opposition between the Law program that the Nation of Israel entered into with God, and God's response to her generations of rebellion to the benefit of all mankind who choose surrendering faith over their own works of righteousness for salvation. There is only futility and confusion that believers suffer from when they try to apply the program and promises from a different people to their lives. What an unfortunate blow to one's faith it is to feel as though God is not answering their prayers, to feel like they cannot understand the Bible, and to feel like something is wrong with them. But most damaging is that the love they may have had for the Holy Scriptures at one time diminishes as they struggle from a weak understanding. God Himself fully intends that the excellency of His power work in our inner man through the right understanding of His Word.
"Question Everything..." was written for everyone who has ever heard something in their religious teaching that did not seem quite right, ever had some questions about the Biblical basis for their church's traditions, and are wondering if there might be straight forward answers to what may have been bothering them for many years. It is a great step of courage and risk to challenge the traditions, foundations, and strongholds of one's faith - particularly when that faith has been handed down from generation to generation - but it is risk with the significant reward of peace and confidence that can only be obtained through God's Word. The reader should be brave when comparing what they always thought with what the Bible has to say. As every individual faces eternity, they will not be accompanied by their ancestors, their Ministers or Priests, nor their best friends or loved ones - their eternal destiny will be based on how they responded to God's Holy Word.
