Have you felt shunned, attacked, or discredited because of this questioning? You are not alone. You are not a heretic, being used by Satan, or in need of being saved. In Crucifying the Bible, you will find the support and answers you have been searching for.

She meticulously compares the foundational basis of the Old Testament with the writings of the New Testament and then challenges the Old Testament against itself. With the core of her life-long identity shattered, Grace walked away from the church and pushed forward, piecing together new beliefs built on knowledge and true understanding. She shares many of her discoveries on these pages: God never says we have to believe in a messiah to be savedThe crucifixion violates Old Testament sin sacrifice lawsJesus does not fulfill the requirements for the prophesied messiahGod lied to mankind from the very beginning and criminalizes independent thinkingThe Bible sanctions selective supremacy, slavery, and misogyny.Christianity adopted the idea of an evil antagonistWhether you are new to examining your faith or discarded it long ago, if you crave a more sophisticated, in-depth comprehension of the scriptures, this book is for you.
