Jesus Is Not an Enemy: A Clear-Eyed Invitation for People Who Would Rather Hear About Him

What if one of the greatest obstacles to knowing Jesus is misunderstanding who He really is? Some people see God primarily through fear, punishment, disappointment, religious pressure, or painful experiences. Others know that Jesus saves, yet still struggle to understand His heart toward them. When that happens, it becomes easy to mistake the One who came to rescue us for the One who stands against us. Jesus Is Not an Enemy invites readers to rediscover Jesus through the truth of Scripture. John W. Angel examines the character and mission of Christ and draws a clear distinction between Jesus-the Savior, Shepherd, Advocate, and giver of life-and the true spiritual enemy whose purpose is to deceive, accuse, divide, steal, and destroy.
