Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

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.

God has called them to His kingdom for such a time as this, to place glory, honor and favor on them and to give them an inheritance among the family of God and to use them for His glory. And to help women establish the kingdom in their hearts and make them aware of Jesus Christ redemptive work for their life, and that He was sent to atone for their sins and through His blood and sacrificial life there is forgiveness of sin and that He is the way of eternal salvation. And to inspire women all over the world to know their value and self-worth, that they are priceless jewels and queens who were miraculously and wonderfully made in the image and likeness of God, and they don’t have to settle for anything or any kind of treatment.

And that their bodies are for the Lord and the Lord for the body and encourage women to rise up and come out of Mystery Babylon the Mother of Harlot, come out of sexual slavery, come out of the house of bondage, come out of sexual immorality and sexual uncleanness, come out of perversion and adultery. And receive with meekness the engrafted word of God which is able to save your soul and make you whole and complete. And to admonish women of all backgrounds to take a stand for righteousness, holiness, sexual purity, and receive the word of life and the word of hope that gives them everything pertaining to life and godliness and an eternal future. And to pursue peace and godliness because godliness with contentment is great gain, it's great wealth, it's true riches and brings great profit. Jesus Christ is satisfaction guarantee, He is the way, the truth and the life of God. Women don't be depraved of mind and devoid of the truth, but walk in present truth and be chayil in your sexual character, spirit, soul and body, and set your heart ablaze and ignite a passion to be zealous for spiritual things and to seek the kingdom and God, and be fervent in spirit and love the Lord with all your heart, mind, soul and strength, and love yourself and your neighbor as yourself.
