| Product Description |
| By following the dramatic story of the "Amazing Grace" hymnwriter John Newton and the apostle Paul's own encounter with the God of grace, Jeremiah helps readers understand the freeing power of permanent forgiveness and mercy. |
| Grace, an amazing subject |
| This is truly the best book I have read next to the Bible. It has totally changed my understanding of how deeply God loves us. I was completely captivated this summer. It has so deeply touched me that I have been sharing it with everyone. I want everyone to know in their heart of hearts how much God loves them and that He will search the ends of the earth to find them if He has to. I have people waiting in line to read it. I will have to get a second copy to pass around because I don't want to give up my copy. We are even talking about using this book for our Bible study group. |
| Good Book on God's Undeserved and Unmerited Grace |
"Captured By Grace" is yet another good title by prolific author David Jeremiah. The gist of the book is the numerous ways God manifests His grace towards us even though we have done nothing in our own strength to merit favor with Him.
The book is not one of those "touchy feely" books designed to make us feel good about ourselves without confronting the reality of sin in our lives. Instead, Jeremiah shows through numerous examples (the Apostle Paul is one such example) of how God shows His grace towards us.
A good book for the person who wonders if God really loves him or her. Do not let your heart be troubled - He does! However, allow Him to deal with and straighten out the sin in our lives through His Son Jesus Christ.
Read, enjoy, and be encouraged! |
| Awesome! |
| This was the best book I've read in a long time. The topic, grace, so needed and relevant for today. David Jeremiah puts it on a level that everyone can understand, no matter how big your circumstance, regardless of what you've done or who you've become, grace is still big enough. Believer or non believer can be taught and touched by these words. Fantastic book!!! |

| Grace undeserved benefit, Wretch deserves punishment |
Grace is a gift; Grace is undeserved; Grace is unmerited; Grace is received. Grace is illustrated through the lives of individuals who have received forgiveness and undeserved salvation. Amazing Grace tells about the love received when Grace is given; that love is defined through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The doctrine of Grace is given in Paul's epistles. Capture by Grace written by David Jeremiah defines Grace received through the lives of John Newton, the author of Amazing Grace and the Apostle Paul. This book will give the reader greater understanding of God's wrath, God's judgment, God's mercy, God's Grace, the atonement, God's forgiveness, God's provision for sinners and God's love. David Jeremiah explores the words of the song Amazing Grace and applies them to the lives of John Newton and Paul. The author details scriptural backing for the lyrics of Amazing Grace by quoting Paul's epistles. This book is an argument against sentiment or to diminish the song's meaning through the changing the word wretch. Both John Newton and Paul knew they deserved hell; both men knew they deserved damnation. No man should demand justice, but praise God that Grace can be received.
