- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Croteau offers a helpful look at some frequently misunderstood verses of scripture. For each, he summarises the misunderstanding, offers some exegetical thoughts, and then suggests the proper application of these verses. I found it helpful and usually on the mark, but I imagine meant more misunderstandings could be added to the list (e.g. misunderstandings arising through dispensationalism).
