| Luther's Galatians - endorsed by John Bunyan, ignored by the Objective Justification leaders today. |
When I finish a book, that becomes the task, all day long. And that is energizing, like racing for the racer, surf for the surfer.
Working with Luther's Galatians is great privilege, because he considered it one of his two best works, which included the Small Catechism. No wonder the Objective Justification salesmen ignore it, except when abusing and distorting it to promote their dark message.
Pilgrim's Progress is an ideal companion to Galatians, because Bunyan called it "my most read book after the Bible." Bunyan's first sentence was 12 years, and he happened to obtain a copy. His eldest child brought books and food to his prison. Bunyan put Luther's Galatians into his allegory, page by page.
That is an distinct advantage for an author, to introduce a book. Reading a book is edifying. Reviewing a book creates a deeper understanding, if done carefully. Going over a great book, line by line, paragraph by paragraph - that is humbling.
Another energizing aspect of writing is working with those who love to read, to illustrate, and to publish. We have a wonderful crew where each person contributes to the whole, and the final version depends on each person - all non-profit. I could not get much done without them.
