The book, Who Told You That You Are Naked? Is authored by William E Combs,It's about Christian history book focusing on the genesis of mankind according to the Christian belief, It re examines the Garden of Eden where the bible says it all started,The author makes it an exciting read by his analysis of every step from the Garden of Eden: Before sin, The disobey by Adam and eve, the entry of sin, faith, and redemption through the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and finally Gods rest. I would recommend this book to any Christian faithful who need in depth analysis of the garden of Eden events, The author wrote the book from sermon ideas and interesting personal journey through faith experiences.

What I like most about the book is the way the chapters of the book is planned perfectly in line with the title of the book. it's easy to follow and understand even if you are not a Christian,I love the way the author used his true personal testimony to explain how he and his wife Miriam were being physically harassed by the devil after being ordained, especially the incident which happened during the writing of chapter 7 of this book,I love the way the author made sure his book remained factual by supporting every story with chapters and verses of the Bible, He didn't include fictitious stories in his book apart from his personal factual testimonies and stories found in the bible.

I like the in depth explanation of the loneliness of Adam, the creation of Eve and how Eve's weakness gave the serpent an opportunity to manipulate Her to eat the forbidden fruit and how Adam demonstrated his first weakness by agreeing to Eve's persistence on the serpent lie to eat the forbidden fruit,Adam had the option of telling his wife Eve to wait till God visit them in the evening as usual to confirm the instructions about the forbidden fruit,But instead, he agreed to also eat, it is interesting to read how they died spiritually instead of instant death as they thought, Only for them to witness first physical death from sinful act from their sons Cain who killed Abel.

I like the way the book explained clearly how even after the events at Garden of Eden, God did not give up on his people, From Abram to Moses to Noah and others, The book explains how these Great men of the bible found favor in the eyes of God for being faithful,both had tremendous faith, that made God use them to accomplish certain duties in their times,One example is of Noah when God instructed him to build an ark, he didn't argue with God, and through Faith, he managed to redeem himself and his family from the wrath of God through floods. I love the way author used his true testimony of him and wife being harassed by the devil after being ordained, The interesting physical fight with the devil while writing chapter 7 of this book, shows how much spiritual warfare it took the author to write this book, Shows how this is not any other story book.

I would like to rate this book 3 out of 4 stars,Because it's perfectly authored with minimal errors, To me, the book would appeal to Christian faithful's who needed in depth re examination of genesis of mankind according to Christianity,The powerful testimonies of the author are evident enough to show that even today, through faith, God can appear to you and just like in the days of the bible, he can help you accomplish a duty,It's perfect journey through Christianity history and the steps towards God's rest.

I recently read this book and thought it was great. Your review is written well and I think it does the book justice! You did a wonderful job and I agree that this book would appeal to Christian's who needed to dive in deeper to understanding what happened in the Garden of Eden! Well done!
