‘BE NOT DECEIVED’ RECOMMENDED TO
CHRISTIANS “LOOKING TO EXPAND THEIR FAITH”
Ed Mrkvicka’s newest book, “Be Not Deceived,” has been recommended to
Christians by Writer’s Digest.
The judge’s commentary from this year’s Writer’s Digest’s Annual
International Self-Published Book Awards says, “The authors are clearly
passionate and well-versed about their subject matter. They write with extreme
devotion and voracity.” “The authors’ arguments are well thought out. The
manuscript has also been well edited. The authors do a good job of interspersing
bible verses to emphasize their points. This adds credibility to their
arguments.” The authors’ delivery style is very easy to read. This book is an
interesting read for Christians looking to expand their faith or those with
questions about the process of salvation.”
Previously, “Be Not Deceived” was awarded the Faith Writers’ Seal
of Approval as an “Outstanding Read,” as well as being an award winning finalist
of the National “Best Books” Awards.
It has also been lauded by other reviewers, including KIRKUS: "Mrkvicka
argues that over the past 50 years, Christianity in America has trended toward a
theology of ‘once-saved-always-saved,’ relegating Bible-based social views and
lifestyles to the realm of ‘legalism.’ This new theological stance is seen as a
surrender to secular humanism, and to society's emphasis on a material culture
in which self-denial is anathema. The book is
well-written…engaging…thought-provoking.”
The review from Pursuing Holiness says: “The first few chapters of the
book discuss doctrine in plain English. Too many churches these days spend all
their time on application and not doctrine, and many Christians simply have no
idea why they profess what they profess. ‘Be Not Deceived’ tackles the
doctrine of salvation in a way that you don’t need a divinity degree to
understand. Finally, ‘Be Not Deceived’ dispenses with today’s ‘cheap and
easy grace’ and lays out the reasons why Jesus can’t be your Savior
without being your Lord. Rating: 5 of 5.”
Reader Views says: “‘Be Not Deceived,’ by Edward F. Mrkvicka, is
simply written and easy to understand definition of the gift of salvation. The
book is divided into six chapters and has a separate conclusion that draws it
all together. Mrkvicka aptly explains how faith and works go ‘hand and hand.’
‘There can be no faith without works.’ Too many have forgotten or overlooked
this part of scripture, ‘If you love me keep my commandments.’ (John 14:15) I
enjoyed Edward F. Mrkvicka’s ‘Be Not Deceived,’ and highly recommend it
to all Christians. Rating: 5 of 5.”
Mrkvicka, who wrote “Be Not Deceived” with the editing help of
his daughter Kelly, stated,” Receiving national recognition for “Be Not
Deceived” is, of course, gratifying. As have been all the numerous
best-possible reviews the book has received. Having said that, the value of the
recognition is the hope that it will bring the book to the attention of millions
of lost souls who have never been saved or have given away God’s unmerited gift
of salvation because they believed the lie that we can sin without consequence.
Most importantly, if the reader has been deceived, “Be Not Deceived” will
help them reclaim God’s gift of everlasting life.”
