The Naked Gospel: Jesus Plus Nothing. 100% Natural. No Additives.

There is no better, more poignant and well articulated concepts about our true relationship and permanent position with God through Jesus and the Holy Spirit's indwelling. Andrew is a master at showing how Christian preachers and seminaries have inappropriately brought the Old Testament into the New. We are cranking out clones of wrong teaching. Make sure you read Twisted Scripture! READ EVERYONE OF HIS BOOKS. BE FREE OF THE WRONG RELIGIOUS BENTS THAT CHRISTIANITY FELL INTO IN THE EARLY CHURCH!

If the truth which is captivated in this Andrew Farley book (plus all of the other books by Andrew Farley) were taught in church - we would not be so bewildered about why the numbers are so huge for the amount of youth leaving the church and not returning. “This”... yes…”This” is the message that is so desperately, desperately needed to set people free… The numbers would then change from those who are leaving the church to the “increasing” numbers of those who are “coming” to church. This message must- must- must be spread.❗️

The Naked Gospel - Jesus plus nothing is a heaps encouraging easy read. Andrew has done an excellent job of simply explaining the truth of our stand in Christ. I was so encouraged I purchased 8 extra books to give away.

The Naked Gospel is a unique and highly significant work that identifies and magnifies the heart of the gospel! Andrew Farley, a distinguished linguistics researcher, professor, and pastor, demonstrates remarkable insight into the extent of Jesus' grace, and he relates the timeless good news in a 21st-century context with meaningful and comprehensible eloquence. The author establishes and maintains an ongoing rapport with his readership by interspersing throughout the book his own personal experiences of spiritual struggle and ongoing understanding. His own experiences, and the sometimes-legalistic practices of contemporary churches and Christians, are measured in a gentle but clear manner against the stirring words of Scripture. Dealing effectively with such potential theological obstacles as antinomianism, Farley deftly explains the simple New Testament message of grace and forgiveness accomplished by Jesus' redemptive sacrifice ... and the remarkable truth that is difficult for most of us guilt-enamored humans to accept: Christ's work was sufficient to pardon and save us, once for all time!

Jesus Plus Nothing." Christian, are you a legalist? Are you bound by your to do list for God? Does the word obligation weigh heavy in your mind when you consider your Lord? These are all questions I would consider asking someone before I would recommend they read "The Naked Gospel: The Truth You May Never Hear in Church" by Andrew Farley, Lead Teaching Pastor of Ecclesia - Church Without Religion, located in Lubbock, Texas. Effective marketing caught my attention with the clear plastic dust jacket and table of contents on the front cover. Further you find the dedication to his son with enthusiastic encouragement and also a brief quote referencing Arthur Bury's book called `The Naked Gospel`. And finally the discussion guide for each chapter named `Nude Reflections'. All quite interesting and imaginative but the content is what stirred quite a few conversations with my husband and friends on the issues raised in this work. It is a fresh, clear look at the issue of Salvation by Grace, not works as well as living by Grace, not Law. The reader is asked a series of questions to begin the dialogue of the book. I was quickly taken aback as I immediately disagreed with some of the statements made. Not wanting to give away the content, suffice it to say, these are standard and pointed questions. My advice would be to read them closely before you answer. Andrew Farley's direct and honest writing style adds to the sections of personal testimony and illustrations. His does not mince words. He addresses objections and then brings the reader back to the main them of `Jesus Plus Nothing'. Upon reflection, there were sections that at first I did not agree, but after consideration, the doctrine was sound. It is New Covenant living that Andrew Farley offers in this book. It does not diminish Old Covenant standards but amplifies the simplicity of the New Covenant. This is a book for the genuine believer who has walked the road of obligation and perhaps needs to breathe the fresh air of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As a believer, there is nothing you can do to make God love you more; and there is nothing you can do to make God love you less. God just loves you. There is only one response to this kind of Love - walking in it. I recommend this book, for discussion and examination. For a limited time, you can download an electronic copy of this book.

A fresh, tender, superbly informed voice - a timely work - A well crafted message woven with the story-telling skills of a master knitter of the gospel, our lives, our Lord and what it really means to be free in Christ. I needed to read this book. I know I have loads of company. Whether you may be exploring what it may mean to have a present-day relationship with Christ, a desire to know Jesus more intimately, suffocating in religion or smugly comfortable in your relationship with God - READ THIS BOOK! As author Andrew Farley points out: "Radically, the Bible teaches that humanity's main problemis not what we're doing. Instead, it's our lack of life as we do it." p.72. This is a book about freedom - freedom from the shackles of man-made interpretations of what is required to live life as a Christian. Scripturally sound, Farley takes us on a journey - revisiting may of the fundamental tenets of the Christian faith - reminding us of the biblical, present day realities that many of us have unfortunately forgotten or replaced with other interpretations in our daily living as Christians . As Farley states: "Too often, I see the church today functioning like any other morality-focused social group. It's time for us to wake up and realize that being born of the Spirit means we possess an amazing life within us. Because we're already different on the inside, we can live differently on the outside." p. 186. Don't misinterpret what the quote above refers to. This is NOT a book about condemning the state of the church. It is written for a broad audience with immediate, enduring practical application to our lives.Furthermore, it is superb tool to share with those considering the Christian faith. A tremendous small group study book. This book is a rarity. Most precious gifts are. I hope you will be blessed by it as I was. It's a book that I will revisit regularly now. I felt somehow lighter after I finished this book. Distinctly unburdened. My prayer is that you will receive a similar gift from your reading of it.

I cannot imagine a better message for the Christian that has been struggling for years to live "the life," or the skeptic who is uncertain that Christianity is all that it's cracked up to be. Andrew Farley pulls back the curtain of Christianity, confronts the superficial religious aspects that have tainted the Christian faith since the beginning, and reveals the Truth that will set you free! The author weaves his own personal experience into the message in such a way that you can't help but relate to his struggles as a Christian. There are far too many Christians walking away from the faith because they are unable to meet the "expectations" they believe that God and the church have for them. It is a sad truth that Andrew Farley is not afraid to address and attack head on. He dives into the core issues that all Christians face...believing you must evangelize by standing on the street corner handing out tracts, the demand by many pastors that you must tithe 10%, falling victim to the idea that our inner nature is sinful, etc. They are the issues that keep Christians living a life bound by the "law." The Truth is that as Christians we've be set free from the law and the new covenant is the TRUE Gospel. It's the "Good News." I would highly recommend this book. It is VERY well organized, incredibly well written, and truly addresses the critical issues that every Christian faces at one point or another. The Truth that sets you free is what Andrew Farley so brilliantly presents, "It's Jesus plus NOTHING!"

I am 50 years old and have spent a life time in churches doing and doing so that I could feel better about my relationship with God, the Naked Gospel taught me that my relationship with my God is not about me or my performance it is about God, it is about Jesus and what He did it is not about me. Dr. Farley writes in a way that scriptures that I have read for years with little to no understanding now make sense, it truly has been Life Changing.
