I don’t think the PURPOSE on the book was to elaborate on, clarify, explore . . . etc.

God’s authority.

That was just not the purpose of the book.

However, I did not find anything per se wrong or unBiblical about God’s authority as presented in the book. It just wasn’t the emphasis.

The emphasis was, imho, about God’s Love and God really Loving his prime creation . . . and God not being prissy. I loved that. Have long felt that was true.
