“From Traditions to Truth is a book for those involved in evangelism and missions in India. If you have a Hindu or Roman Catholic friend, this is an ideal gift for them. This is the exciting story of the transformation of the author, from poverty to palmistry, from ritualism to atheism, from traditions to truth. This book is also an investigative study on the major practices of both popular Hinduism and Roman Catholicism”- (India Focus, Bangalore)

“....contains a moving account of the author’s search for true peace ranging from Hinduism to Catholicism and finally to atheism until God’s love arrested him...”- (Steward News, Chennai).

“The book gives the story of the author’s transformation and how he realized the reality of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The author has done considerable research, both in history and Scripture, to substantiate his statements.

It is a good addition to Christian literature”- (Light of Life, Mumbai).

Reviews about this Book by well known theologians:

“This book takes the readers to an exciting trip into the study of the origin and development of the Bible. The author brilliantly demonstrates the canonicity of the Bible on the basis of internal evidence from the text and external evidence from the tradition...To my knowledge; this is the first major work of its kind which is investigative in approach and meticulous in detail. Every Bible student should possess a copy”.
(Dr. Eliya Mohol, Dean, Doctoral Studies, Head, Biblical Studies Department).

“How did the Bible come into existence? What makes the book different from all other books? How is it so unique and superior from all other literature? Does it have a divine origin? Is it so perfect and inerrant that nothing can be added to or deleted from the Bible? Why is the subject of inspiration so important to the Bible? These and other baffling questions are authoritatively answered in this book substantiated by historical investigations and evidences. The author deserves special commendation for the kind of evaluation he did on the apocryphal books”.

(Dr. B. Ashokan, Professor, Berean Bible College, Bangalore).
