'The Awesome God Yahweh and His Peculiar People' is the answer to three mind-blowing questions: 1. Who rebelled against God before the creation of the world. 2. What was God's purpose in creating man? 3. If the Lord Jesus Christ came to save the world, why do many go unsaved? The author answers the questions solely from the standpoint of the Bible. The angels are relieved from the guilt of the rebellion against God, the source of evil being outside God. Satan and the demons who were in existence before the creation of the world were the ones who rebelled against the authority of God. Man was created to defeat Satan and to destroy evil. God created man as a part of His war plan, allowed evil to be manifested in Satan's people, preserves His predestinated chosen ones as His soldiers to defeat Satan and his demons and has been destroying evil and the reprobates as and when evil surfaces through them. Thus two sets of people, God's people and Satan's people live simultaneously on earth together. God sent Jesus Christ to save only the predestinated people of God. He makes provision for His people to believe in Jesus and earns them for Himself. When His people fall into sin owing to Satan's influence coupled with their own weakness God in His mercy forgives them through the blood of His Son Jesus Christ and graciously sanctifies them by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit by his various gifts and fruits enables them to overcome evil and land up in the likeness of Jesus. The author exhorts the readers not to entertain thoughts that are unworthy of God by having erroneous notions. Such perverted notions about God in man's mind ultimately rot his mind. One should think rightly about God in order to praise Him worthily, to pray to Him with faith and to love Him perfectly. The author views the wrong representations of God as bondages put around the minds of God's people by Satan and takes the privilege of breaking the bondages in the Name of Lord Jesus Christ.
