HOW TO LIVE IN A
DANGEROUS WORLD
Biblical Pictures of Modern Perils
Roger Ellsworth
Our televisions and newspapers bombard us with dangers threatening our economy,
our environment, our educational system and more, but the greatest dangers we face are
spiritual ones.
The dangers which worry us the most are often able to damage us only here and now, but
mistaken beliefs can lead to eternal ruin.
Roger Ellsworth identifies many of the major beliefs and values of our day, finds Bibe
characters who shared the same perspectives and discovers where those beliefs and values
led them. The author wants to know what we may learn from those who have gone before us
and how we may avoid falling into the same pitfalls as they did. The result is a fresh
understanding of the grace of God which enabled others to overcome the very real dangers
they faced and which is still more than sufficient for every one of us living in our
dangerous world.
'I am overjoyed to recommend this book in the hope that it will bless and
encourage others as it has me. Roger Ellsworth has once again pointed us to the sacred
text and to its practical application to our lives. And for that I am most grateful.'
