"Our Last Great Hope"

"Our Last Great Hope" by Ronnie Floyd was an emotionally written, well-timed book.  The idea of awakening the Great Commission is something that needs to be spoken of and taught about on a more consistent basis.  The life of Jesus Christ was not something that was lived so that we would put it away and never speak of it.  The gospel of good news is to be discussed, dissected, and ultimately we should dedicate our lives to its truth and saving grace.  When Ronnie Floyd writes about the responsibility that lies within a true understanding of the gospel, he writes with such fervor and zeal that you believe that you can take on the world for the cause of Christ.  This book is an example of what a true dedication to the cause of Christ will do inside the willing heart of a believer.  Christ died on the cross not because He desired to be famous, but for the sins of the entire world.  This includes those who hear the gospel and choose to ignore it, those who never hear the gospel proclaimed, and those who have heard the gospel and say that they believe it.  The aim of this book is not just to pump up those who are in that final group, but to challenge that final group to take their beliefs and put them into action.  This was a good read and challenging to me as a believer.
