The text of this book attempts to make sense with the word “understand or understanding”. For instance, in philosophy or epistemology, our fore parents and the present parents have taught, and we have learned that, the true knowledge could only be gained or acquired through experience or practical experience known as the methods of empiricism. The query now is this, what is applicable there that could aid humanity in their understanding or to understand the word God/god and who coined the word and for what purpose? And since our past and the present educators could not provide the meaningful approach in order to have the understanding of the word God/god has thus left humanity conjecturing of who or what God/god may be. In the determinant to acquire or gain knowledge by understanding of something has given rise and thus resulting in search of knowledge acquisition to understand who God/god is and how was the world created? Aside from seeing natural things around us to suggest that they are created by the creator, what is the true name associated with the Creator?
The text of this book explores the Deity of the Saviour Jesus Christ in comparison with the deity of the English name god/ God which was the name of the deity worshipped by our ancestors or the ancient people before the Advent of Jesus Christ 2000 years ago and it is still being worshipped by many cultures. Christians also worship the same named “god” but spelt with the capital letter “G” God. The hard truth is How and Why should our Lord Jesus Christ be referred to as God by employing a capital letter “G”/God to justify the deceit by the Satan’s agents the authors of the English Bible the KJV in 1611AD?
This book attempts to demystify the complexity of the illusive world of love, labeled by the ancient Greeks in the three distinct types of love, particularly eros. The book is challenging this axiom in stressing that majority of people in the world are being fooled into thinking that there is such a thing as true love, as eros. People may say, Not another book on loveyes, but with a difference. The belief is that the word love (eros) is an illusion, and that having been entrenched in the certainty of what love has to offer, the more knowledge we have about it, the better. The instance here is this: whilst love is held with higher regard in the world since time immemorial, it is time to have a fresher thought about the reality of love. By engaging in the exploration of the influence of eros (love), we shall be in a supreme position to be able to disentangle the mind-set being enculturated into society centuries ago by the Greek philosophers. It cant be stressed highly enough as we are all witnessing the devastating impact of the Platonic love eros on many innocent people, particularly children in our modern society. Marinoff claims that the ancient Greeks, whose development and discoveries in many subjects continue to exert primary influence on Western civilization, and therefore also on the global village, were vitally interested in love and its relation to the human soul. In this pre-Christian period, the Greeks were pagans, and the view of the soul was not a religious one involving spirits or ghosts. Plato and others conceived of love as residing in the soul and the soul itself (and therefore love). This book reveals what true love is in the Bible, contrary to what the ancient Greeks handed to modern society. The Greeks third and highest form of love is agape. It is the rarest and most valuable kind of love. Agape is unselfish; its expression always helps and never harms another. What makes agape different from eros and philos is its selflessness. Although agape love was mentioned by the Greeks, its true meaning is given by Jesus in the Bible. In this respect, the book is saturated with the biblical verses of Gods love, particularly agape love.
