Why Jesus Wept
To know a person to a very high degree, you need to know what makes them happy, so you can learn to do it, and what makes them sad, so you can avoid it. Jesus, the Son of God, is the visible image of the invisible God. If we want to know what makes God happy, all we have to do is figure out what makes Jesus happy. If we want to know what makes God sad, all we have to do is find out what makes Jesus sad. The events surrounding Lazarus's death and resurrection were so full of meaning and provoked extreme emotions from Jesus. Why did He weep on the way to Lazarus' tomb in Bethany? Could the answer to that question provide humanity clues to a deeper understanding of the divine nature? Reno Omokri unravels this and other issues in this book. The reason Jesus wept is not obvious and will come as a surprise to many. It makes for a very eye opening read and the reader is sure to come away with a much deeper understanding of who God is and what appeals to Him. |

One of the most spiritually fresh and profound thinkers to come along in a log time.
By James Lawson on June 30, 2015 Format: PaperbackReno Omokri is one of the most spiritually fresh and profound thinkers to come along in a long time. His writing is both simple; no big theological terminology to bust your brains over, and straight forward. However his insight into God's Word is both exciting and profound. In every chapter I found myself both stimulated and encouraged then convicted and challenged to a closer walk with Christ. I highly recommend this book, no matter whether your a new Christian or one who has been walking with the Lord for a while, you can't help but to grow in spiritual maturity through the reading and application of this book to your life. |
