  • Great book!
J.I. Packer hits the nail on the head - as always!

  • I will admit J I Packer is one of my favorite Theologians.
Well written and describes much of the modern day so called church. I will admit J I Packer is one of my favorite Theologians.

  • Come on in; water's fine, but you'll not get saved...
A great, witty, irreverent read into what ails modern churches. Dr. Packer's sparkling wit skewers ever so deftly.

  • Packer at his unconventional best!
What can I say about J.I. Packer that hasn't been said. He is brilliant without being snobby, insightful without being arrogant, and humorous in his seemingly unintentional way. This book, although not recently written, contains timeless principlals and insights that are fresh and exciting to discover. There are many lines worth quoting in this book of wisdom. ... show more

  • Still applicable
I love the book Knowing God by Packer, and this book is also good soul food. It turns my thoughts God-ward, and challenges my love of comfort and familiarity and any reticence hidden in my heart to take the gospel seriously. Packer says that theologians should be thought of as "the church's sewage specialists. Their role is to detect and eliminate intellectual pollution, and to ensure, so far as man can, that God's life-giving truth flows pure and unpoisoned into Christian hearts." Packer makes good theology approachable and applicable, and even though he wrote it in the 1980's, his thoughts and warnings still speak the truth into our lives today. ... show more

  • Timely
Even though this book was written some time ago it is very relevant. It speaks directly to the seeker friendly and Emergent Church teachings and views of scripture. Very easy to read and understand..Tell me what you think of my Christian fiction novel The Palace Theatre..The Palace Theatre

  • Deep but worth it.
I first read this when I discovered reformed theology and it really helped me to redirect my focus to the gospel. It's very deep, as J.I. Packer is known to be, but not hard to understand. I recommend this if you are tired of superficial treatment of God's truths in so many contemporary Christian books. ... show more

  • Soaking up Hot Tub Religion
This Anglo Canadian author has written 246 pages of easy to read theology on contemporary Christian issues. Primarily, J. I. Packer challenges our materially hedonistic and narcissistic culture and its influence on the church. Packer does this in a positive way by explaining from the Bible, that good feelings, the desire for success, and health are not inherently bad, it is just how the members of our society goes about finding these desirable conditions. What is expounded is a basic Christian course on spirituality with a paragraph about pleasure. Beginning with the Westminster Confession of Faith, The Shorter Catechism, which reads, "What is the chief end of man?... Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy him forever." Packer in turn explains this statement in terms of the sovereignty of God, obedience to God's word, a desire for holiness, and the willingness to self-sacrifice. These are not demeaning, but rather build up one's humanity and result in the enjoyment of life with God. This is contrary to the hedonistic desires of our society. The enjoyment of God and His blessings are found in the paragraph on pleasure. If a man or woman can conduct their lives according to the above principals, one can find happiness and joy. Happiness is in relation to the circumstances of life; this is what narcissism seeks. But the follower of God can sacrifice selfish means and goals and find the happiness of God in God Himself. Joy is described as relationship with God in Christ Jesus. This kind of joy is not dependent on circumstance, only on friendship with Jesus i.e.; prayer and Bible reading. Therefore, some people experience hardships, but ironically remain in joy or even find joy amongst the trials of life. This book is good for anybody who calls Jesus Lord as a reminder to get back to the Bible as the measure of godly Christian conduct. Also, it is good for people who do not call Jesus Lord, as an example of how to live and order their lives on something more solid than just feelings which can lead many people into trouble. ... show more
