About the Book

The Bible is not primarily about you... and that is very good news!

This book invites you to read the whole of Scripture the way Jesus said it should be read: as one unified story that centers on His person, His work, and His promises, not on your performance or potential.

In The Bible According to Jesus, Jon Moffitt helps you lay down the exhausting burden of treating the Bible as a rulebook, roadmap, or inspirational manual and recover it as a revelation of Christ for weary sinners. Along the way, you will learn to distinguish Law and Gospel, trace the covenantal storyline of redemption, and recognize how every passage fits into the larger drama of what God has done, is doing, and will do in His Son.

With clarity and pastoral warmth, this book will re-enchant your reading of Scripture by exposing the false gospels of our age, unmasking the idols that still stalk our hearts, and equipping you to stand firm in the finished work of Christ. Whether you are a new believer, a tired saint, or a ministry leader, The Bible According to Jesus will teach you how to open your Bible with confidence, hear its warnings without losing hope, and rest more deeply in the grace that holds you from first page to last.

What's Inside

Learn how to read the whole Bible with Christ at the center:

Why the Bible is first about Christ, not you

How Jesus and the apostles interpreted the Old Testament, and what it means to read every passage in light of His person and work.

How to distinguish Law and Gospel

What God requires versus what God gives—and why confusing the two leads to burnout, doubt, and joyless Christianity.

The covenantal storyline of Scripture

How the promises made to Adam, Abraham, Israel, David, and the new covenant in Christ all fit together as one unfolding plan of redemption.

The three uses of the Law

How the Law exposes sin, restrains evil, and guides the believer—without becoming a ladder back to God.

How to spot false gospels and modern idols

How ancient idols like Mammon, Molech, and Caesar show up today in our apps, politics, spirituality, and church culture—and how the gospel exposes them.

Re-enchanting your view of spiritual warfare

Why the Christian life is lived in a real spiritual conflict, and how Christ’s victory and armor give assurance rather than fear.

Using creeds, confessions, and commentaries wisely

How historic Christianity can guard you from theological fads while keeping Scripture in the driver’s seat.

Reading the Bible in the life of the local church

Why Scripture is meant to be read and applied together, not as a solo project—and how that protects assurance and unity.

Each chapter comes with discussion questions for you to use with your small group.
