In this simplified yet substantial version of the Bible's virtues, Hames provides the opportunity for people of all walks to experience an awakening by learning to break through limiting beliefs. At its core, the work is a roadmap for humanity to transition from the human physical world to God's spiritual one, an antidote of sorts to humanity's ailments.
Stripping away the density of biblical scriptures, the author focuses on specific verses and relationships. For instance, the phrase "He was before me," uttered by John the Baptist despite being six months older than Jesus, affirms that Jesus is the beginning, the middle, and the end. Later, he delves into a discussion of faith with the age-old encounter of King David and the behemoth that was Goliath. Deciphering the prophecies of Jesus Christ's arrival in the Bible, Hames emphasizes that faith is central to experiencing material and spiritual healing and ultimately attaining the heavenly abode.
Interestingly, Hames probes into the idea of one's eyes being closed when engaging in purest actions, be they of prayer or love. Though numerous interpretations exist, it is intriguing to examine the argument that closing one's eyes is akin to temporarily leaving the material world and connecting directly with one's essence in the spiritual realm. Through numerous references and discourse on scripture, the author circles back to how one can benefit from reprogramming the mind to think positively through belief in Jesus and gratitude.
Hames wraps up his endeavor with another piece, "The Circle of Love," which drives home the point that feeling supersedes physical prowess when in a truly loving relationship. More than anything else, this text is a testament to the author's conviction that the Bible is the gateway to the path God intends for mankind to traverse.
