Book excerpt: The author of The Measurement of Righteousness uses secular educational measurement and evaluation methods to illustrate the measurability of the spiritual state of man’s life through the performance of physical lifestyles and activities. The book scores and evaluates man’s activities in different perspectives: • Through physical activities of good and bad deeds • Through spiritual (faith-based practices) that determine their respective destinations, either Heaven (a place of bliss) or Hell (a place of torment), as illustrated on the front cover It also examines categories of men, their characteristics, and background types by inclination of godliness or devilishness. Man is viewed as being weighed on God’s word in relation to his obedience, believing that all about man’s sufferings in this world emanates from his disobedience to God’s word. Its consequent effect caused man the loss of his “paradise” known as the Garden of Eden. The book concludes by enjoining man “the wicked” to repent and be righteous. It also calls on believers to examine themselves and retrace their steps to be on the high side in righteousness on God’s scale to obtain eternal life in God’s kingdom on the day of judgment, after rapture of the “church” (believers or saints).
