This book was released on 2014 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord, please continue to have mercy on humanity. You have made provisions for everything we need in this world and the world to come. Yet many people although desire good life, are suffering, some are confused, others are desperate, families are broken down, our nation is struggling to cope, many people are lost in spiritual matters and sin. In this book, the author's main argument is that God, in his unfailing love for humanity, has already provided what people are frantically seeking in life. What people need to do is to turn to the Holy Scriptures for guidance. This book can be of such help. You see, when life is calm, our foundations don't seem to matter. But when crisis come, our foundations are tested. In this book, the author also argues that it is a waste of time and effort for people to build their lives on a faulty foundation. Jesus describes God's principles as a solid foundation for people to build their lives on. We are strangers in this world; therefore we need someone who knows the journey of life to guide us. God is the creator of this world, and He alone knows the in and out of this world. His principles provide guidance for a perfect life. The attempts by some groups of people to suppress the knowledge of God in the society have not been very helpful in many ways, although they could not succeed. For example, these people could not provide the society with any viable alternative guiding principles on how people should live their lives. This has led many people to turn to wrong sources for guidance, sometimes with very little success or no success at all leading to a life of despair, hopelessness, and failure. Because of this suppression of God's word, there seems to be famine in our society, famine of truth, famine of the word of God. There is also darkness in our society, many people are confused and some do not know what to do with their lives. But the word of God is light, its gives understanding, it gives hope, it provides guidance on spiritual matters, the salvation of the human soul, and solutions to all our problems. Sometimes, life is easier and beautiful if you know what to do in any situation you find yourself. Many people desire a good family life, peace, joy, hope, self discipline, strength, encouragement, a connection with 'a higher being' that transcends human existence and meaning to life in their spiritual quest. As you read this book, know that I am praying for you for all these blessings in Jesus name, amen. Anthony Bright Atwam. According to scripture, the church is the salt and the light of this world. But the church seems to have locked the resources God has given her to be given to the world in the room and has put the keys in her pocket while the world is suffering. One of the things the church needs to do is to start to unpack and release the resources God has given her to meet the needs of postmodern spiritual quest. Anthony Bright Atwam.

Download or read book The Foundation of Faith written by David Benson Kiehn and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-04-09 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every Christian is called to build their foundation on the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul writes to the church at Corinth, "According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ." (1 Corinthians 3:10-11) The earliest foundation of the gospel of Jesus Christ was laid out in the opening pages of the Bible in its first book. Genesis provides the foundation of God's people by showing how the gracious, almighty Sovereign Lord God created the world and loving set his affection on his people through an everlasting promise. This book is an attempt to help believers build their lives on a solid foundation. Genesis provides the beginning framework of how God created, called and cared for his people. As Christians understand the great legacy of God's faithfulness to his people, they will understand that Israel's story is ultimately their story as well. God's people were built on a promise. That promise was fulfilled in the life, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If Christians want to build their life on a solid foundation, they should start at the beginning. I pray that you will learn more of your foundation as you grow in your understanding of the history of God's people. Build your life on a solid foundation. Build your life on the promise of God.

To ensure your aim is accurate, you look for a calibrated point of reference. There are two engraved lines to give you a single place to focus on when aiming at a target. The two lines cross at this spot and create what is known as crosshairs. Crosshairs are composed of two wires or lines, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the horizon. The area that you are focused on is where the two lines intersect. The objective is to align the crosshairs with the bullseye. Aiming to hit the bullseye requires precision, and using the simple principle of intersecting lines, you can easily pinpoint that target. When peering through the scope of your financial future, the strategy is the same. The two dimensions are God’s Wealth (vertical) and God’s Wisdom (horizontal). Once you have these two crosshairs in focus and zeroed-in, you can aim right at the center of your target and hit it consistently. If you want to pinpoint your financial destiny, you need to zero-in on your target, not someone else’s mark. The simple tool needed for pinpoint accuracy is the crosshairs, and one of the most critical steps is knowing where you are aiming. The blessings come where the two lines meet. Get ready to manage money according to the Word of God and live a prosperous life!

Download or read book Upon This Rock written by Rosie Rivera and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-09-26 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many new believers struggle due to a lack of teaching. The Bible states that we as baby Christians should desire the sincere milk of the Word that we might grow by it. Many people get born again and go back into the old lifestyle because they have no root in the Word and their foundation is weak. I would like to see every new believer become established and grounded in the Word so that they have a firm foundation that cannot be moved. Tests and trials come to each of us, and whether we stand or fall depends on the type of foundation our lives are built upon. The more we understand the Word, the stronger our foundation becomes. God desires that we take His written Word and His revealed Word and apply them to our daily lives. This book is intended to inspire new believers to go after God, to get to know Him, and to love the Word. There is no greater joy than knowing the one who came and gave His life that we might live.
Download or read book Foundations written by Gil Stieglitz and published by Principles to Live by. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian life is not an easy road. In today's culture, it seems like a thousand voices tell us what to think, what to believe, who to follow, and what to do. As a pastor and counselor, Dr. Gil Stieglitz has had the privilege of talking with all kinds of people, who are either being drawn toward faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, or have stepped out in faith but have many questions. Foundations answers many of the most basic questions about living in dynamic connection with God. It delves into four foundational blocks for what it means to live the Christian life and how to interact with God through Jesus Christ. Block 1: Jesus and the Christian Life Who is Jesus Christ? What happens when a person first becomes a Christian? What are evidences of true conversion and salvation? Block 2: Growing as a Follower of Christ How do you follow Christ? What benefits come from being a disciple? What is baptism? How does a Christian think? How does Christianity answer the basic questions of life? Block 3: The Wonder of the Church What is the church? Why is it so important? What does is contribute personally and to society as a whole? What are vital actions that only the church can take and what happens when it does? Block 4: Finding and Living in the Will of God All people want a life of meaning, purpose, significance, and love. What does it mean to live in the center of God's will and how do you find it? Why don't people pursue God's will to the fullest? Foundations can be experienced as a personal study or in a small group format. We recommend reading each chapter one after the other, like blocks that build upon one another. Each one is crucial to your growth and enjoyment of the Christian life. If you have been a Christian for a long time, or you are just taking a look at the Christian life, jump in and build a solid foundation for right thinking about the Christian faith.
