Know What You Believe by Paul E. Little

I found this book to be a wonderful overall summary on the Bible; God, Jesus Christ; Christ’s Death; People and Sin; The Holy Spirit; Salvation; Angels, Satan and Demons; The Church; and Things to Come. If you are looking to go really in-depth into these issues this might not be the book you are looking for but for those wanting to study the basis/foundational truths of these subjects it covers them very well, even going into different views held on such things as baptism, the rapture, the Millennial reign of Christ and more. I will say there were a few times that I felt some things should have been made more clear or were not worded exactly right and some could have misunderstood if they didn’t grasp the overall statement Little was making on that subject. Part of this might be due to the fact that Little didn’t write this book but it is a compilation of his spoken messages and writings combined together. However, that does not diminish the overall value in any way of this book – I am just a stickler for those things. I would definitely give this book the rating of Recommended.
