Western Christianity has tried to interpret the Bible through its own lenses. The problem is that it was written from a Jewish perspective, a completely different mindset and culture. When we apply just a little of the Jewish perspective, we find the scriptures open up into a refreshing new dimension that brings it to life. In 'Taken for a Bride' the connectedness of the Bible is celebrated. Starting with the Tranfiguration, Gary takes us on a journey through the Old and New Testament to observe the patterns and intentional correlation. The 'promised Messiah' is trumpeted through seemingly random characters and events as we finally find out what Elijah's exit was really about. Gary doesnt hold back exploring core biblical themes and even suggests the Passover feast to outlay the history of God's saving plan! Having read this book you will be in no doubt that the bible is 'other than' in how the Holy Spirit has designed its archetecture. Allow your jaw to drop as Joshua, Elisha and Jesus are shown to be connected... then... you are also in that context! Gary hasn't intended to deliver an adrenelin shot for mission activities. Rather, he has clearly laid out the purpose and plan in your life being taken out of this world as Jesus' bride. You have been Taken for a Bride, maybe you just don't know it yet!

This Edition is the 'fat' edition which has a part 2 containing Gary's essays. 'Taken For A Bride' is the first in the 'Cogs of the Kingdom' trilogy. Many believers in Jesus Christ have asked questions about their placing and purpose in God's Kingdom. Observing the Hebrew origins of the Bible, Gary Ward explores the amazing patterns that are presented in the text culminating in a breathtaking rescue plan for mankind. The overarching message of the book is how a believer is not just involved but implicated in the saving plan of God. Bible characters and stories fit together like cogs, working together to make the will of God be outworked. Incredibly we can see what the roles were of people such as Elijah, Elisha, Joshua and Moses. Of course, it all culminates in Jesus walking out the redemption plan in his death, burial, resurrection and ascension. Now Glorified on His Father's throne, Taken for a Bride shows how each believer has the potential for the Lord to issue forth through their lives into a lost world. Gary also explored barriers to having this sort of proximity to the Lord and prepare to be shocked to find the main culprit! If you are a believer in Jesus you will enjoy this biblical explanation of the purpose of your life in Christ.
