Love Thy Body
The subject of the physical body is not only very prevalent in the Bible, it is also very important. God made us in physical bodies and was incarnated in the person of the Lord Jesus in "the likeness of sinful flesh." Unbiblical teaching about the physical body was one of the first heresies in church history to arise in the form of Gnosticism but today many unbiblical ideas are spreading because we are not following God's "owner manual" when it comes to the bodies that He has given to us as a stewardship. The review of the book, Love Thy Body deals with topics like; abortion, euthanasia, homosexuality, transgenderism, and other hot topics that we need to understand based on what the Word of God teaches.
