The book, titled “No Turning Back”, is intended to be an evangelistic tool returning people to God by taking them to God’s creation, how sin ruined what was created and separated us from God and His following attempts to bring us back to Him, revealing the path He has created to bring us back to God.
Starting with the first 5 words of the bible, “In the beginning God created”, Ruben explain God’s creation, how it was good, perfect in fact. Then he go on to show the introduction of sin showing how mere disobedience to God is enough to separate us from Him, hence mans ejection from the Garden. He explains how the wiles of the devil and mans choice to follow the misrepresentation of Gods commands result in that sin. Going through the events outlined in the Bible, in many instances quoting scripture to define those events, Ruben shows mans path through time, separated from God and God’s attempts to bring man back to Him, His promises to do just that and how the path to that salvation can be gained through obedience, belief and confessing the Christ.
This book not only takes the believer to the beauty of the original creation but it lays out the strife we have had to deal with since sin entered in. It then clearly identifies God’s putting man back on track to Him and how sin now firmly embedded in man has continued to make man fall to the same original lie introduced in the garden, “Did God indeed say”. Then Ruben takes the time to clearly identify God’s attempts to turn man from that sin and return him to obedience. Finally he shows how God’s sacrifice in giving up His Son has opened that path and clearly put the door before us to open to regain the goodness of the original creation. This book would be an excellent reminder to believing Christians, an exhortation to those on the line or who have grown cold and a clear path to belief and salvation to those who have no firm belief in the Christ or God Almighty. In this view it would make a great evangelistic tool.
