by Tim Finley (Author)
Hot topic - Hot new book. An eye-opening book written by an uncompromising man whose research will make the reader richer in spirit. Author/evangelist, Tim Finley, answers these perplexing questions: Is homosexuality wrong? If wrong - who says? If wrong - what are the eternal consequences? Did Jesus' shed Blood on the Cross pay for all sins of all mankind, or for only the small sins of a select few? To answer these questions, we must have a point of reference. Traditionally we have used the Holy Bible to make moral evaluations, but because the Bible consists of 30,000 verses that discuss thousands of occurrences and hundreds of topics, most people have a limited knowledge of what the Bible actually states. To further complicate the issue, most Christians choose only their few favorite Bible verses to form an opinion or to judge others. Simply stating: "God made Adam and Eve - not Adam and Steve" is shallow and incomplete theology. Author and Christian evangelist, Tim Finley tackled the very complex and controversial social topic of homosexuality head-on by compiling a systematic, all-inclusive, easy-to-read book for those who need to know the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth - as stated in the Bible. Finley's comprehensive book thoroughly investigates and profoundly analyzes what the Bible reveals regarding the hot topic of homosexuality by presenting hundreds of Bible passages, which concurrently answer the questions asked by millions worldwide. WILL GAYS GO TO HEAVEN? Which and Whose Sins Did Jesus' Shed Blood Not Forgive? was written for a broad spectrum of people, from those who know nothing about Christianity to Christian scholars, including but not limited to: -Agnostics -Anglicans -Atheists -Bigots -Buddhists -Christian chaplains -Christian evangelists -Christian pastors -Christians who don't understand salvation -Christian Scientists -Friends -Family members -Homosexuals -Heterosexuals -Jehovah's witnesses -Jews -Mormons -Muslims -Roman Catholics -Seventh-Day Adventists -Those who have a difficult time reading the Bible -Unitarian Universalists -Youth approaching the age of Christian accountability Finley shouts that most Christians do not totally comprehend and appreciate the super, abundant, radical, undeserved, amazing rendering of grace freely offered by the Cross. His ministry challenges readers to not only understand grace, but also the motivation to accept it. No need to be a scholar. Millions of people have picked up the Bible, glanced through a few pages, and put it down because it appeared too challenging. God is not looking for Bible scholars to be a part of his Kingdom (not that there is anything wrong with being a scholar), because he loves folks of all ages who come to him as seeking babes. WILL GAYS GO TO HEAVEN? communicates Bible information in a logical, topical technique.
Author Biography
Timothy Dane Finley (born 1946) is an outspoken American orthodox Christian, soteriologist (one who studies salvation), evangelist, and author. Tim grew up in Massillon, OH, in a middle-class family that attended a main stream church on Christmas, Easter, and a few Sundays. There was very little Bible knowledge. Residing most of his adult life in Columbus, OH, his primary occupation was Vice President of a New York Stock Exchange member company. Until age 34, Tim was under the false impression that people earned their way to Heaven. Upon hearing the Good News of salvation by grace through faith he accepted Jesus as his savior, at which time he was called to a life of evangelism. He resigned his position with the investment company to attend Bible College. Tim contends that a Christian evangelist is someone who teaches that Jesus Christ, who was God incarnate, is the only way to Heaven, and by believing and trusting in Jesus' finished work (death, burial, and resurrection), an individual is born spiritually, which ultimately results in receiving the free gift of glory in the next life. "Many Christian churches have convoluted God's simple plan of salvation, scaring numerous people from accepting the free gift that Jesus died to give all who would accept it," states Tim boldly. An accomplished racehorse trainer, Tim is the founder of the Christian Harness Horseman's Association (CHHA), an International Christian fellowship within the horse racing industry. Founded in 1983, the CHHA fellowship still thrives. He was also a board member of the Racetrack Chaplaincy of Ohio. In addition to ministering at racetracks, Tim ministers at prisons, churches, streets, grocery stores, the beach, or wherever the Lord leads him. Politically, Tim is a compassionate conservative, calling on churches worldwide to focus their efforts on fighting poverty and disease, expanding educational opportunities for the marginalized, and caring for the environment. Tim married Loveda Knore Edgar in 1977, and they are the proud parents of Tom Finley (1968-2013), Melissa Nino (Patrick), and Lynn Edgar-Smith (Steven), and three grandchildren. In 2001, Tim and Loveda moved from Columbus, OH, to Lake Worth, FL, where they currently reside. Tim is also the author of another Christian book titled JESUS CHRIST Is the EASY and ONLY Way to HEAVEN, which has spawned an awakening to salvation = faith + nothing.
