Download or read book Righteous Living written by Taiwo Oluwadara and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soul winning is God's heartbeat. That is why, close to the end of His earthly life and ministry, Jesus Christ commanded His disciples to go into all nations, teach all creatures the gospel and baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. He promised to be with them and support them everywhere they go to carry out their divine assignments. As a result, many have attempted to win the world for Christ by teaching and preaching God's word. The gospel of Christ is truly the power of God unto salvation to the Jews and the Gentiles. The truth is that the gospel is most effective when believers and all who preach and teach it also live it. The word of God will serve as a veritable and positively impactful instrument to win and change the world for Christ when believers' lives demonstrate His sacrificial and self-sacrificing love, good works, and all other virtues and values that stand Him out. We will win the world for Christ when we are set apart when we are in the world but not of the world when we make Christlikeness our watchword when our lives and lifestyle preach Jesus, holiness, love, and selflessness. The key to achieving all these is righteousness. The Bible affirms that if by one man's offense, death reigned by one, much more, those who received an abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall in life reign by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17). As believers, we must be in right standing with God for us to win the sinful world for Him. You have received the grace of God and the gift of righteousness. God expects you to use the abundant grace and righteousness He has given you to win the world for Him. The whole world lies in wickedness as well as the terrible hold of Satan and sin. Righteousness is the counterforce that can overcome sin and deliver mankind from its destructive consequences. Beloved, you are saved and called to pursue and bear the fruit of righteousness. As you seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all other good things are added unto you, unbelievers will see and acknowledge the wonders of Jehovah, your God. Similarly, as you demonstrate the fruit of the Spirit, unbelievers will see your enviable values and seek to serve your living Father. You are clothed in God's righteousness. You are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. You are a city built on a hill that cannot be hidden. Let your light so shine and your righteousness is so evident that men would see your good works, turn to serve, and glorify your Father in heaven. Beloved, righteousness is the force and weapon you have been given to win the world for Christ. It will make God's word, your prayer life, and soul-winning efforts produce tremendous results. As you consistently live in right standing with God and have good standing with man, making your lifestyle to demonstrate Christ's peerless love and goodness to the world, unbelievers will accept Jesus Christ and make Him their Lord and God.

Book excerpt: A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fruit of righteousness is a tree of life (Proverbs 11:30). Evangelism is the need of the hour. The Lord Jesus Christ repeatedly emphasized on the need for soul winning and discipleship even to His last minute on Earth (Mark 16: 15).A parting word is the most important thing in a man's heart. He accomplished the work of redemption on the Cross of Calvary, and He left the work of witnessing for the salvation of lost souls in the hands of believers while He supports them with His presence. Every believer therefore, is called unto the ministry of soul winning. A soul saved, is a soul rescued from eternal punishment in Hell. People perish everyday through various disasters, and other means. Apostle Paul says that the preaching of the gospel is foolishness to them that perish, but to us who believe it is the wisdom of God. This book therefore, is a call for the revival of that first love in the Body of Christ. It is written to rekindle the fire of evangelism among the people of God, to awaken the compassion and passion for the salvation of lost souls in the Body of Christ. .

In this book, you will learn: ...strategies to effectively win souls for the Lord Jesus Christ. ....to overcome the obstacles to effective Evangelism ...to utilize your talents and gifts for soul winning ...consequences of fruitlessness in the Kingdom of God ....the rewards of a soul winner.

Download or read book Tasting Grace written by Melissa d'Arabian and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The winner of The Next Food Network Star season five and New York Times best-selling author of Ten Dollar Dinners shares how God used food to invite her into His love. It wasn't until Melissa d'Arabian evaluated her relationship with food in light of her relationship with God that she began to appreciate food as not only a gift from him but also as a deeper invitation into his love. As she prayed, studied Scripture, and reflected on the stories from her own life, Melissa saw how God had used food to draw her into community, to redeem her moments of greatest tragedy, and ultimately to connect her more to him. In Tasting Grace, Melissa shares sixteen invitations that will transform your perception of food and the role it plays in your own life, from equality to connection to hospitality to stewardship and more. She explains how through her experiences, she learned to trust the ingredients--in recipes and in life--and join God in the act of creation. Whether you are a mom struggling to throw together a healthy meal for your family each night or a single woman longing for fellowship around your table, you will draw encouragement and inspiration from Melissa's reminder that all food, first and foremost, is a gift from God. When you return to him as the source, you will find the freedom to enjoy his beautiful and delicious creation. Advance praise for Tasting Grace “What a beautiful book. Using stories of her own triumphs and pain, Melissa digs past the surface layers of food as we see it on television, in cookbooks, and on social media. Rather, she helps us think about it in a whole new way—as nothing short of a spiritual force, a vessel through which we can experience (and extend) compassion, comfort, fellowship, love, enjoyment, and grace. It has given me a brand-new lens with which to examine the deeper significance of the food I cook, eat, and share.”—Ree Drummond, author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks “The intersection between faith and food is endlessly interesting to me, and Melissa articulates the significance and beauty of that intersection so well. Melissa is a great storyteller, and she invites us into her story and gives us a seat at her table with graciousness and wisdom. This is a lovely, meaningful book.”—Shauna Niequist, New York Times best-selling author of Present Over Perfect and Bread and Wine “This is a beautifully written book. These aren’t just words on pages; they are an invitation to a feast, to hospitality, and to finding lasting purpose in your life. Melissa has set a table fit for a King, pulled our chairs, and reminded us there’s a place for us here. This is a book that will not only feed your imagination but also your soul.” —Bob Goff, author of New York Times bestsellers Love Does and Everybody Always

Book excerpt: In brief summary, Gospel in your character, is all about understanding Christ, His nature and effect of living his life in your character in order to win many back to the kingdom of God through such character. The Gospel is the good news that Christ has risen and is alive living in heaven and in the heart all that receive him. When you have this understanding you begin to experience Christ presence through the help of the Holy Spirit, which is the spirit of God living in your heart, making all things new in your life. And you will begin to live life's abundance like Adam at the Garden of Eden, where everything will be accessible and you will never lack any good thing, as the Bible declared "those that know their God shall prosper and make exploit". You will be hungry to always hear the word of God! Nothing will matter to you again more than the word of God. You begin to consider every situation, events, action from God's own point of view not from government or natural aspect. Since Character is your personality, secretly or physically that can not hid, people around must see and know that you are living inseparable union with Christ; enjoying rich fellowship with the father; having conscious that you are in the father, the father is living you and they accept your Gospel and turn to God. Millions of people out there are waiting to see Christ in your character before they will accept our gospel. You don't need to reach out for lost souls only by preaching with your mouth, your responsibility goes beyond mere talk as a child of God, and you are mandated to win soul to the kingdom of through your character. Arise shine for the world to see your light and glorify your father who is in heaven, is a commandment from the Lord, that you light must shine to all. Remember if you win all your enemies back to Christ today, you will live to enjoy peace with them tomorrow. Coming to this understanding means no more worries, limitation, no more darkness, confusion or uncertainty about the future. I pray that God will help you to fulfill this destiny Christ through his holy spirit in Jesus Name.
Download or read book John Owen on the Lord s Supper written by Jon D. Payne and published by Banner of Truth. This book was released on 2004 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The approach of the Puritans to the Lord's Supper is a comparatively neglected aspect of their heritage. In particular, John Owen's twenty-five sacramental discourses are little known and little read, even among those who value his massive contribution to the understanding and defense of the doctrines of the gospel. In John Owen on the Lord's Supper, Jon D. Payne has set out to rescue Owen's teaching on the Supper from this neglect. He sets the scene by outlining Owen's life and teaching. He then goes on to examine the development of Reformed teaching on the Supper- especially the part played by Calvin and Peter Martyr Vermigli- before focusing on Owen's Twenty-five Discourses Suitable to the Lord's Supper, delivered between 1669 and 1682, and taken down by hearers. But the latter part of this volume is occupied by the Discourses themselves. Here the reader will encounter an Owen less concerned to define and defend truth than to comfort and help even the weakest of believers as they come to the Lord's Supper. The great and lasting value of this work comes from Owen's obvious desire to promote 'delight in Christ, thankfulness unto him and the keeping of his word', in all who partake.
