God's Plan for Man: Contained in Fifty-Two Lessons, One for Each Week of the Year

The book itself is great. However, I didn't what I ordered. what was sent to me was God's Plan for Man 1996 the unexpanded version. I ordered what was pictured the expanded version.

This book makes understanding God’s Word simple. No need for any other book need to open your eye of knowledgeable understanding of what great things God has in store for us when we believe.

I have been using the Dake Annotated Reference Bible since I got saved 10 years ago. Recently I purchased God's Plan for Man, great book. At the moment I am reading straight through and I am only in the first lesson, but as with the reference Bible, it is excellent study material.As for those who are criticizing the works of Dake, I would tell you like my pastor told me 10 years ago. Chew up the meat and spit out the bones. No, you may not agree with everything, but be like David was concerning Saul, don't touch God's annointed, even if you don't agree with everything he stands for. God Bless

I like Bono, too, but it matters little what endorsement Bono gives Dake's material, as it stands on its own.In my opinion, Finis Jennings Dake is the finest Spirit-filled, Faith-oriented theologian/Bible teacher of the 20th century. Although many have set out to undermine the reputation of this dear saint of God and giant of the faith, they can't shut him up; his writings live on, the most prominent of which is "God's Plan For Man."It's all here--1000 pages of the most concise, balanced, and profound doctrine concerning everything from the pre-adamic world to the return of Christ. There are also hundreds of pages of teaching on the basic "how-to's" of everyday Christian life--how to pray, what promises are available to the Christian today, the baptism in the Holy Spirit, a step by step exposition of the Lor's prayer, holiness, faith, putting complete trust in the word of God, miracles, deamons, angels, and everything else--EVERYTHING!There are a few teachings that many will be troubled by, but I implore you to read such teachings in the context of Dake's overall view of man and his relationship to the spiritworld, God, angels, deamons, etc. Dake rightly contends that the beings of the spiritual world (angels, demons, and even God Himself) are as real and physical as we are, sighting a limitless number of scriptures to support his teachings.And that is a point I can't stress enough: Dake profusely refers the reader to the Bible. My guess is he has cited tens of thousands of scriptures. I have yet to read a single claim made by Dake that is not generously supported with scripture.Although most would use this work topically, I stronly suggest one sit down and read it all the way through. It will take a while, but it will surely be the most rewarding extended Bible study you've ever embarked on."God's Paln For Man" is a must for every Spirit-filled believer!P.S. Get the Dake study Bible, too!

I received a copy of this book as a gift upon graduation from high school. I spent two years intensively studying it in conjunction with my Bible. It is the most complete and correct biblical guide I have ever found. If you are serious and diligently apply the principles as taught, it will change your life. Signs and wonders will follow.

Originally a weekly correspondance Bible study course, GPFM is the best, most balanced theological work of the 20th century. Whether it be history, holiness, Christ, God, Man, satan, the end times, or whatever, there is no subject in Scripture that cannot be understood as literally as it is written is the claim Dake makes, and he backs it with plenty of Scripture. At one point, he gives (I believe) 500 Scriptures supporting the Trinity. This is a fine choice for serious students of Scripture who wish to be well grounded in the Word. If there were 6 stars, I would give 6.

I have been totally taken away by this book. I originally bought it for reference sake, but now I am reading randomly throughout in order to get revelation and understanding of the Word of God. Dake has divine insight into the Word and a gift for opening it up.
