Download or read book Love Like Jesus How Jesus Loved People and how you can love like Jesus written by Kurt Bennett and published by Enoch Media. This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on Kurt Bennett's popular-ish blog God Running, Love Like Jesus begins with the story of how after a life of regular church attendance and Bible study, Bennett was challenged by a pastor to study Jesus. That led to an obsessive seven-year deep dive. After pouring over Jesus' every interaction with another human being, he realized he was doing a much better job of studying Jesus' words than he was following Jesus' words and example. The honest and fearless revelations of Bennett's own moral failures affirm he wrote this book for himself as much as for others. Love Like Jesus examines a variety of stories, examples, and research, including: -Specific examples of how Jesus communicated God's love to others. -How Jesus demonstrated all five of Gary Chapman's love languages (and how you can too). -The story of how Billy Graham extended Christ's extraordinary love and grace toward a man who misrepresented Jesus to millions. -How to respond to critics the way Jesus did. -How to love unlovable people the way Jesus did. -How to survive a life of loving like Jesus (or how not to become a Christian doormat). -How Jesus didn't love everyone the same (and why you shouldn't either). -How Jesus guarded his heart by taking care of himself--he even napped--and why you should do the same.-How Jesus loved his betrayer Judas, even to the very end. With genuine unfiltered honesty, Love Like Jesus, shows you how to live a life according to God's definition of success: A life of loving God well, and loving the people around you well too. A life of loving like Jesus.

Around them gathered a group of experienced missionaries, computer scientists, and unusually dedicated young people in order to buy a college campus.

Download or read book Seven Things The Holy Spirit Will Do For You written by Chris Oyakhilome and published by Christ Embassy International. This book was released on 2005 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest thing that God has done for us is to give us the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Almighty Spirit of God. He's the One Who communicates the presence of God. So many Christians have never really known the importance of that. That's what made Jesus 'the Christ.' It was the Spirit's indwelling that made Him who He was. That's the Spirit that makes us children of God today. The Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity revealed to the Christian. He is one with the Father and the Son (1 John 5:7). He is neither less important nor less powerful. He is God and co-equal with the Father and the Son. Right from the beginning of the Scriptures, we're introduced to the Person of the Holy Spirit; and throughout the Scriptures, we're further acquainted with Him, His power and His Person. In all of these, His ministry is clearly revealed - not to exalt Himself, but to lead us and reveal to us the Person of Jesus. Ephesians 5:18: "And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;" The ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Christian is so vital. This is why Paul, by the Spirit, gave us this all-important charge to continually be filled with the Holy Spirit. He also prayed concerning the communion of the Holy Ghost in 2 Corinthians 13:14 "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen." This is talking about a relationship, a fellowship with the Holy Spirit, for He is a person, and you can maintain a relationship with Him. You can talk to Him and commune with Him. A lot of us have missed out on the blessings of such a communion because we've not taken time to understand the Holy Spirit. But when you know the Holy Spirit and recognize the importance of communing with Him, you'll constantly desire to have the fullness of the Spirit, and then you will experience the blessings of that wonderful fellowship. In this book, I have highlighted seven vital blessings that the Holy Spirit brings into the life of every child of God who has allowed Him to fill them and occupy their vessels; seven blessings that will bring an amazing transformation in your life as you yield to the influence of the Holy Spirit!

Download or read book Sometimes Only the Sad Songs Will Do written by David Denny and published by Shanti Arts Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new collection of short fiction, David Denny gives voice to troubled characters caught in spiritual snares: a mass shooter dreams of angels and astronauts while awaiting capture, a young hotel clerk attempts to teach the rock star trashing his hotel suite a lesson in humility, an elderly couple surrender their lives to an approaching wildfire. As Paris Review editor Christian Kiefer says, "Denny's stories read like a catalog of earthly woes through which run a surprising thread of wonderment and grace." Reminiscent of the American blues tradition, these dozen lyrical laments remind us that even in an age of moral panic, climate disaster, pandemic, and political corruption, the world’s fading beauty still has the power to astound us and drop us to our knees in broken praise.
Download or read book Suffering and the Sovereignty of God written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2006-09-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, 9/11, a tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and many other tragedies have shown us that the vision of God in today's churches in relation to evil and suffering is often frivolous. Against the overwhelming weight and seriousness of the Bible, many Christians are choosing to become more shallow, more entertainment-oriented, and therefore irrelevant in the face of massive suffering. In Suffering and the Sovereignty of God, contributors John Piper, Joni Eareckson Tada, Steve Saint, Carl Ellis, David Powlison, Dustin Shramek, and Mark Talbot explore the many categories of God's sovereignty as evidenced in his Word. They urge readers to look to Christ, even in suffering, to find the greatest confidence, deepest comfort, and sweetest fellowship they have ever known.
Download or read book The God Who Loves written by John F. MacArthur and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2008-07-06 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God is love." It's the most basic definition of God in Scriptures, but so profound that it's often misunderstood. In this probing book, a brilliant Bible expositor brings us into the very heart of God by answering such questions as: If God is love, how could He send anyone to hell? What's the difference between the loving God of the New Testament and the angry God of the Old Testament? If God is love, why did He require His Son to die such a cruel death on the Cross? How can God be both loving and jealous? The author argues against the two polar views of God as a sentimental grandfather whose doting love could not bring him to punishment of the disobedient and God as an angry tyrant who would rule by threats. "Both extremes paint a distorted picture of God and further confuse the issue of understanding God's love," Dr. MacArthur writes. He insists that what God loves is actually defined by what He hates, and that neither His love nor His wrath can be understood in isolation from the other. Although the author is clearly aware of the way great men have grappled with these issues in the history of the Church, his doctrinal presentations arise more from the biblical text than from dogmatic theology. He examines in detail the way John?"the apostle of love"?treats love in his First Epistle, then fleshes out the doctrine of God's love in vivid representations of real people interacting with divine love.
