Christianity is unique among world religions on account of some of its teachings. For example, its teaching "Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you." (Luke 6:27-28) exceeds the highest teachings of other religions in the matter of loving others.
The Hidden Delight of God is a spiritual book that discusses and lays emphasis on another:
Jesus, as a living, supernatural power who alone breaks sins fetters and sets free those who believe and accept him.
Let me explain it with an example: If you are addicted to something destructive like drugs or sex (or just anything
else that has begun to control you like a slave-driver) and you can't break free, Jesus
can by his supernatural power. Other religions only teach/warn you not
to indulge in drugs but are powerless to set you free. Jesus welcomes you to listen to him like your doctor and try
his redemptive power to set you free!

I love literature and music. This blog has to do with these—Books (book reviews, articles, essays, authors, etc.), Poetry (loved poems and poets), and Music (songwriters, musicians, bands, songs, lyrics, etc.) They are treasures in words but all built up from the same basic building block viz; word(s). Hence the title of this Blog—'Treasures in Words!'
