Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With America's confidence in the Bible at an all-time low and the strength of her spiritual convictions waning, it is essential for Christians—especially Christian leaders—to be well-grounded in biblical theology. To have a clear and comprehensive understanding of the key doctrines of evangelicalism. In response, professor and award-winning author Bruce Demarest has made plain God's glorious plan of salvation, his provision for the human dilemma through Christ's work on the cross, and the application of saving grace to unbelievers. Demarest's unique approach defines each topic, identifies its most pressing issues, examines the ways in which the doctrine has been understood historically, and interprets the Bible's revelation. The result is a clear and carefully constructed doctrinal statement that you can defend, live out, and communicate to others. This singular, comprehensive treatment of one of Christianity's essential doctrines gives definitive, Bible-based answers about salvation and the cross— and about related theological issues such as grace and regeneration. It's perfect for clarifying your theology and gaining deep understanding of this foundational theme. Part of the Foundations of Evangelical Theology series.

Book excerpt: A profound exploration of how to hold on to hope when our unchanging faith collides with a changing culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders. “Offers neither spin control nor image maintenance for the evangelical tribe, but genuine hope.”—Russell Moore, president of ERLC As the pressures of health warnings, economic turmoil, and partisan politics continue to rise, the influence of gospel-focused Christians seems to be waning.

But there’s another story unfolding too—if you know where to look. In Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra counter these growing fears with a robust message of resolute hope for anyone hungry for good news. Join them in exploring profound stories of Christians who are quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus—from the wild world of digital media to the stories of ancient saints and unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of justice and mercy. Discover how, in these dark times, the light of Jesus shines even brighter. You haven’t heard the whole story. And that’s good news.

Download or read book The Revelation of the Sealed Book written by Aníbal Vélez and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-05 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captured in just one book is a complete overview of God's plan and purpose for the church, Israel, and other nations in the end times. "But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end" (Daniel 12:4). "Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, 'My Lord, what shall be the end of these things?' And he said, 'Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end'" (Daniel 12:8-9). God raised up another prophet, the apostle John, to open the book that the prophet Daniel had closed and sealed. "And he said to me [John], 'Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand'" (Rev. 22:10). The "time of the end" has come! It is time to open the book that Daniel was ordered to seal. God chose the church for a great mission: to spread the gospel and to bring understanding of His purpose and will to all people. The church needs a full understanding of all future events, in order to teach and proclaim them in a clear way. This book includes historical issues, detailed exposition of one of the last prophecies to be fulfilled before the judgment of God commences--Russia's attack on Israel.

Download or read book Marked and Sealed written by Jeremy C Springfield and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-08 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 666-the number of the beast. The infamous mark is the most widely recognized number in the world, but it is also the most misunderstood. A similar situation has befallen its counterpart-the seal of God.These two topics in the New Testament book of Revelation have captivated minds for millennia, and yet so much of their significance has been missed even with a sincere desire to understand them. Many various assertions have arisen and are often encountered regarding what they mean and how they will be realized in the Creator's grand prophetic plan. What has seldom been addressed and is largely unknown is that Judaism has maintained a thought regarding both the mark of the beast and the seal of God that offers a rich insight into the subject for all believers.Marked and Sealed tackles this mysterious subject from an essentially unprecedented perspective: turning to the rich corpus of Jewish religious literature to frame the mark and the seal in their original Hebraic viewpoint. Setting aside the popular approaches of modern Western Christian thought and the historical perspectives of the Church throughout the ages, the contents herein instead present a fresh but ancient view that will challenge preconceptions while upholding the message of Scripture. This unique book offers a unifying portrait of what the revelator of Patmos sought to convey to his readers that preserves the Semitic meaning and displays the harmony between ancient Judaism and the faith of the early New Testament writers.

Download or read book Love Me Anyway written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There may be no more powerful desire in the human heart than to be loved. And not just loved, but loved anyway. In spite of what we've done or left undone, in spite of the ways we have failed or floundered. We long for an unconditional, lavish love that we know intrinsically we don't deserve. If you are tired, sad, yet always longing, bestselling author Jared C. Wilson has incredible news for you: that kind of love actually exists, and it is actually something you can experience--whether or not you're in a romantic relationship. In his signature reflective, conversational, and often humorous style, Wilson unpacks 1 Corinthians 13 to show us what real love looks like. Through engaging stories and touching anecdotes, he paints a picture of an extravagant God who not only puts the desire for love into our very souls but fulfills those desires in striking, life-changing ways.

Download or read book The Seven Mountain Prophecy written by Johnny Enlow and published by Charisma Media. This book was released on 2008 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is preparing a spiritual tsunami to sweep the nations and reclaim our culture for Christ, says author Johnny Enlow. He describes seven culture-shaping areas of influence over each society--media, government, education, economy, family, religion, and celebration (arts and entertainment)--that are the keys to taking a nation for the kingdom of God. The purpose of this book is to draw the church's attention to these areas; help each individual determine his or her specific assignment in this mission; and then to offer insight into the nature of the battles involved in this "spiritual tsunami," as the author calls it. Many Christians do not grasp that God's favor for us to succeed is already upon us and is part of His end-time strategy to establish Jesus as Ruler of the Nations before His return. Readers will come to understand that this favor is divinely strategic and corresponds to the place of each person's ministry assignment. Many have a spiritual poverty vision and poor eschatology, two factors that have robbed us of our blessing and caused us to fail to reclaim cultural influences for Christ. The book is laid out to address these two misunderstandings, with the first several chapters specifically aimed at correcting lack of vision and misguided understanding of the end times. Each chapter that follows provides intensive, detailed study of each "mountain" of influence, how it will be taken and by whom, and what resistance will be encountered by individuals assigned to claim this mountain.

Download or read book Understanding End Times Prophecy written by Paul Benware and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

Download or read book The 144 000 written by David Arthur Miller and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said “. . . the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.” Matthew 13:39, 40. Yet do we hear about this harvest? The prophetic book Revelation tells us, “And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in your sickle, and reap: for the time is come for you to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.” Revelation 14:15, 16.Along with all this said, we should understand the judgment is good news; it's the everlasting gospel. This same chapter in Revelation says, “And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and tribe, and language, and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment has come: . . .” Revelation 14:6, 7. For those who will believe and trust God, the judgment is good news. “The 144,000” is about the judgment, the good news for the last days, the good news of the seal of God, the sealing of the 144,000. (Revelation 7:2) All will receive either the seal of God or be marked by the beast. There is no reason to receive the mark, but we must know what it is. The good news of the judgment is that God has made it possible for all to be sealed, not marked. But we need to study; we have to know what we must do to be approved of God.How about the rapture? When will it come; is it really as secretive as most think? What about the 490 year prophecy of Daniel 9:24 and the 2300 year prophecy of Daniel 8:14? Who is the Little Horn that rules for many years? “The 144,000” exposes the Man of Sin (2 Thessalonians 2:3), the Little Horn (Daniel 7:24; 8:9), the beast out of the sea (Revelation 13:1). It's all very easy to understand, if we take the time to study, and turn our lives over to God, wanting nothing else but to know and do His will. However, in order to truly comprehend, we must be born again. (John 3:5)
