Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christophe Lebreton, aged forty-six, was the youngest of the seven Trappist monks assassinated in Algeria by terrorists in 1996. He was also the poet of the group. Anyone who was enthralled by the recent film Of Gods and Men should find in Brother Christophe's Journal ample and deeply moving material for meditation on both the light and the darkness inherent in the human condition. The Journal begins in 1993, four months before the terrorists' first visit to the monastery at Tibhirine, and it ends on March 19, 1996, just seven days before the monks' abduction. Entry after entry touches readers both by its vivid sincerity and by the fresh and inventive quality of its poetic expression. Through these pages readers become privy to the daily events in the soul of a generous searcher after God under very trying conditions. His style is highly personal, playful, ardent, full of color and whimsy.

Download or read book The Mystery and Miracle of New Birth written by Uche C. Ekeh and published by NewBookPublishing.com. This book was released on 2014-10-05 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Redemption for all of humanity has been made available to all through one Man—Jesus Christ. Salvation is a free and unmerited gift to man from the throne of grace. Nonetheless, the price of the cross was, indeed, costly. A true relationship with God— through—Jesus Christ involves more than following a “free-style” doctrine. Jesus said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God” (Jn. 3:3). The immediate goal of being born-again is to see the Kingdom of God. Yet, there is an issue of blindness among believers that must be resolved. It is not enough be saved, join a church, or even to become a missionary, although these are noble things. Undeniably, there is a distinct journey for each individual in Christ, but one thing that applies to all Christians is the need for obedient adherence to the principles in the Scriptures. While some may practice a permissive theology, the true sons and daughters of God ought not to “cherry-pick” through the Scriptures to find what they are willing to apply in their own lives. Reject one part of the Word of God and you must reject it all—or else—embrace it all and live it! The institutional church, with its numerous denominations, has no soul to be transformed, but each believer does. Jesus died to save individual believers not denominational entities. God adopts common individuals and they become His unique sons and daughters. The Mystery and Miracle of New Birth is for believers who desire to know and practice sound biblical doctrine—because doctrine matters.

Download or read book Begat by God written by Dr. Benjamin Dadebo and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-05-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of being born again appears misunderstood by many. Most people will tell you they want to go to Heaven. Yet the most important qualifi cation for entry into Heaven, being born again (born of water and of the spirit), is not embraced. This book Begat by God explains why without allowing the cleansing action of Christ, the word of God (being born of water), and the empowerment by the spirit (born of the spirit) to do the works pre-ordained by God, it is impossible to make it into Heaven. Thus being born again simply involves a continuous transformation because of a conscientious effort by an individual to allow Gods word (Christ) to dictate his way of life. Entry into Heaven is therefore not about religion, but about a purposeful transformation through Christ. The birth of an offspring always involves the development under water in a confi ned environment, over a specifi ed time frame, followed by an expulsion, into a completely new environment. This book describes the similarities between human physical birth and the Spiritual rebirth as in John 3. Thus the invisible attributes of God including His ideas can be gleaned from studying the natural processes of His creation (Romans 1:20).

Download or read book Gazing Upon the Face of God written by Steven Stoltzfus and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-08 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gazing upon the face of God is our only source for ultimate Truth. God did not just give us a bunch of rules to follow; He gave us His very nature. All of creation, including mankind, is a direct attribute of God Himself so it only makes sense that in order to understand anything we must look upon His face to determine Truth. The world today is slipping towards a world order that defines Truth by popular demand and a majority of vote. The screaming minorities become the majorities. Without God as the ultimate Truth then there is no source other than the will and laws of man; and who is to say they are wrong or right but the majority. Christianity has become a natural acceptance of belief that is acknowledged, but hardly lived! Reality as the world knows it has conformed completely to the natural laws of the physical senses. The nature of God is hardly recognized as our source of reality. Naturalism has become man’s god and Spiritualism has become simply--the reference of historical events back in bible times. It is time we, as Christians, accept our role as outsiders to this world and take on the Nature of God in ushering in the Kingdom of Heaven upon earth!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up the son of agnostics, John Koessler saw a Catholic church on one end of the street and a Baptist on the other. In the no-man’s land between the two, this curious outside wondered about the God they worshipped—and began a lifelong search to comprehend the grace and mystery of God.

Like a contemporary Pilgrim’s Progress, it traces the author’s journey and explores his experiences with both charismatic and evangelical Christianity.

John Koessler provides a poignant and often humorous window into the interior of the soul as he describes his journey from doubt and struggle with the church to personal faith
