JESUS: THE ROCK OF OFFENSE

Edgar Jones wrote this book to offer his witness about the Words of Jesus. Published in 1995, this book focuses on the utterances of Jesus of Nazareth and defines his gospel and related doctrines based on those words alone.  There is no attempt to correlate his doctrines with other sources because his words are sufficient. We invite you to join us in a reading of this witness as we focus on the first few chapters of the book. We will continue on with another set of  chapters in our next monthly issue.  This is a witness to the Words of Jesus.  As always, we invite you to go directly to the Words of Jesus for the Truth as he is our Master and Teacher.

Edition #96
Jesus attributed his words to God the Father, and we believe him.  His words, the words spoken by Jesus of Nazareth, are then the very words of God.  They are unique among men and must be distinguished from all other words.  One way to do this is to accord them a unique title.  In the Fourth Gospel they are called the Logos, using the Greek for "word" and so we will designate them here as "The Logos of God." Come and hear the voice of  God through the Words of Jesus. 
PEACE TO YOU AND TO YOUR HOUSE
