Download or read book Biblical Principles for Christian Living written by François Akoa-Mongo and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-06-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intention to write this book to repeat among today's Christians the Antioch's experience. To teach believers ways each one of us would be capable to live in full the new life we have received in Christ. That new life is expressed through cultivated attitudes and habits modeled after Christ. These attitudes and habits become visible by the outsiders in the believer's daily practices. The Rev. Charles Stanley, for example wrote his 30 biblical principles which guide his life The calling of those who have received a new life in Christ is to live according to what is taught through the Bible . We are called to put new wine in a new wineskin as Jesus said in Mark 2:22 " And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins." Here are the 12 Fundamental Biblical Principles for a Christian Living. 1-Believing that through faith in Christ, you have received eternal life. John 5:10-13. 2-Loving God with all the heart, all the mind, all the strength and loving our neighbor as ourselves. Mark 12:30-31. 3-Reading, memorizing, meditating, being guided and knowing that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. I Pet. 2:2. 4-Praying daily to God, and living daily in his presence. Ephesiens 5:20; I John 1:9. 5-Confessing the Lord Jesus as your personal Saviour and Lord without reservation. Matt. 10:32; Acts 8:36-38 6-Avoiding temptations. Doing everything and asking God not to let you give in in temptations. Psalm 1:1; I Corinthians 10:13 7.-Witnessing to others about Jesus Christ. Acts 1:8; Romans 10:13-14; Matthew 4:19 8- Serving the Lord with Gladness. Psalm 100:2; Hebrews. 10:25 9- Standing firm on the Word of God. II Pet. 2:1-3 10-Living in Communion with the Holy Spirit II Cor.13:14; John 16:13, Gelatins 3:3. 11.Being a separated Christian, a person who lives a sanctified life. 2 Cor.:14-18; 12. Forging other as you have been forgiven. Ephesians 4:31-32; Matthew 18:23-35 The difference between these biblical principles and the Ten Commandments or any other rules and regulations we have in the church is that the one who has chosen these principles or an expended ones, makes them his or her ways of life. He or she lives them no matter who sees or does not see him or her. No outside force or control is at work in order to live that way. The Spirit of God and his Word work through the one who first, has given self to Christ, and second has let the Spirit help him/her to live this new life in Christ. The goal is to repeat and to multiply the Antioch's experience today among the believers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principles for Christian Living is a gift of inspiration, encouragement and prodding to believers to live the way that Christians should live so they can reap the great rewards of a Godly life. Those principles of faith, discipline, obedience, forgiveness, commitment, hard work and sharing are brought beautifully to life through the experiences Rev. Ramsey had growing up poor financially on a Georgia farm but enriched with devoutly religious parents who ensured that he knew God at an early age. He shows how these principles apply to people's real lives and daily challenges. In today's world - a world full of turmoil and obsessed with material goods and riches, a world that glorifies greed, lewdness and indifference to the needs of others, a world where "Love thy neighbor" is largely ignored - this is the kind of book people need desperately. And Rev. Ramsey, who lives these principles daily and preaches them from the pulpit constantly is just the person to write it.

Download or read book Habits of Grace written by David Mathis and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian life is built on three seemingly unremarkable practices: reading the Bible, prayer, and fellowship with other believers. However, according to David Mathis, such “habits of grace” are the God-designed channels through which his glorious grace flows—making them life-giving practices for all Christians. Whether it’s hearing God’s voice (the Word), having his ear (prayer), or participating in his body (fellowship), such spiritual rhythms of the Christian life have the power to awaken our souls to God’s glory and stir our hearts for lifelong service in his name. What’s more, these seemingly simple practices grant us access to a host of spiritual blessings that we can only begin to imagine this side of eternity—and the incredible joy that such blessings bring to God’s children today.
Download or read book Risk Is Right written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A choice lies before you: Either waste your life or live with risk. Either sit on the sidelines or get in the game. After all, life was no cakewalk for Jesus, and he didn't promise it would be any easier for his followers. We shouldn't be surprised by resistance and persecution. Yet most of us play it safe. We pursue comfort. We spend ourselves to get more stuff. And we prefer to be entertained. We are all tempted by the idea of security, the possibility of a cozy Christianity with no hell at the end. But what kind of life is that really? It's a far cry from adventurous and abundant, from truly rich and really full, and it's certainly not the heights and the depths Jesus calls us to. Discover in these pages a foundation for fearlessness. Hear God's promise to go with you into the unknown. And let Risk Is Right help you see the joys of a faith-filled and seriously rewarding life of Jesus-dependent abandon! Risk Is Right is a significantly expanded version of a chapter previously published in the book Don't Waste Your Life (chapter 5).

Book excerpt: Billy Graham shares God's gentle, reassuring promise of spiritual calm and authentic peace in a world falling apart at the seams. In a culture that values "quality of life" and personal happiness above all else, why are so many of us unhappy, anxious, lonely, on the brink of despair? Why do so many of us feel empty, even though we live surrounded by plenty? In Peace with God, Reverend Graham takes you on a great quest to find the answers to life's purpose. Along the way, he answers essential questions to understanding the true hope at the foundation of the Christian faith—questions like: What is God like? Why did Jesus come? What is repentance? How can I be sure of salvation? How should a Christian live? "God's peace can be in your heart—right now . . .Whatever the circumstances, whatever the call, whatever the duty, whatever the price, whatever the sacrifice—His strength will be your strength in your hour of need. It's all yours, and it's free." Peace with God is a timeless message of hope for all those struggling with despair and loneliness. Billy Graham will beckon you on the path to lasting peace as he describes the basics of the biblical message, the problem of sin, the tenets of the Christian way of life, and the glorious hope for the future.
Download or read book The Normal Christian Life written by Watchman Nee and published by Bibliotech Press. This book was released on 2023-01-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Normal Christian Life is a book by Watchman Nee first delivered as a series of addresses to Christian workers who were gathered in Denmark for special meetings in 1938 and 1939. The messages were first published chapter by chapter in the magazine A Witness and A Testimony published by Theodore Austin-Sparks. The first chapter was published in the November-December 1940 issue. This first publication of the book can be viewed in the original magazines on Austin-Sparks.Net. The messages were later compiled into a book by Angus Kinnear in 1957 in Bombay, India. In The Normal Christian Life, Watchman Nee presents foundational principles for the Christian life and walk drawing primarily from the book of Romans. The book is generally regarded by many as the first introduction of Watchman Nee to the Western world. As of 2009, this book has sold over 1 million copies and is available in many editions and languages. Watchman Nee based his speaking on the first eight chapters of the New Testament book of Romans. Nee takes the first eight chapters of Romans as a "self-contained unit" and divides these chapters into two parts: Romans 1:1 to 5:11 as part one and Romans 5:12 to 8:39 as part two. In the first part of Romans "sins" is given prominent attention and deals with the question of the sins man has committed before God. However, the second section deals with "sin," that is the inward nature, or inward working principle, within man that causes man to commit sin. Thus there is a difference between the acts of a sinner, sins, and the inward nature of a sinner, sin. Nee reveals that God's dual remedy is the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and the Cross of Christ. The Blood "deals with what we have done, whereas the Cross deals with what we are. The Blood disposes of our sins, while the Cross strikes at the root of our capacity for sin". As Nee progressively moves along in his book, he first touches upon the Blood and then focuses upon the Cross for the remainder of the book. Watchman Nee gave four steps in which a Christian lives the Christian life. Basing from Romans 6:6, there is the need for the knowledge of the cross of Christ as a fact in our experience. The second step is the matter of reckoning. Reckoning is the stating and considering of facts and promises that God has revealed to be true. The third step is the matter of presenting to God. Coming to Romans 6:13, Watchman Nee says that Christians consecrate that which passed through death and resurrection in the new creation. In this way, Christians would no longer live to themselves but to Christ because He has the full authority over their lives. The fourth step is the matter of Walking after the Spirit. Firstly, walking after the Spirit does not refer to our "working" but of dependence on God's working and operation. Secondly, it refers to subjection. This means that the Christian life is the yielding of all the dictates of our flesh and be of subjection to the Spirit. The Normal Christian Life is one of Nee's most well known books. It is considered by many to be a spiritual classic of Christianity. It has been reprinted and reissued in many editions and in many languages. The book's enduring appeal is not only due to Nee's exposition of Romans but also to the many illustrations, personal accounts, and anecdotes that Nee used. The Normal Christian Life has impacted millions of Christians since Nee spoke it and is a major contributor to the local churches movement today. Nee was recognized in the United States House of Representatives by Christopher H. Smith of New Jersey in 2009. He recognized Nee as having been one of the most influential Chinese Christians of his era. In the Congressional record, The Normal Christian Life is highlighted by Smith as being among his most popular and influential books. (wikipedia.org)
Download or read book Seeing and savouring Jesus Christ written by JOHN PIPER and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who is Jesus Christ? You've never met Him in person, and you don't know anyone who has. But there is a way to know who he is. How? Jesus Christ - the divine Person revealed in the Bible - has a unique excellence and a spiritual beauty that speaks directly to our souls and says, "Yes, this is truth." It's like seeing the sun and knowing that it is light, or tasting honey and knowing that it is sweet. The depth and complexity of Jesus shatter our simple mental frameworks. He baffled proud scribes with his wisdom but was understood and loved by children. He calmed a raging storm with a word but would not get himself down from the cross. Look at the Jesus of the Bible. Keep your eyes open, and fill them with the portrait of Jesus in God's Word. Jesus said, "If anyone's will is to do God's will, He will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority." Ask God for the grace to do His will, and you will see the truth of His Son. John Piper has written this book in the hope that all will see Jesus for who he really is and will come to enjoy him above all else.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of these seven principles are important and practical for born-again believers. We must seek God daily for direction, wisdom, understanding, and revelation. Everything we have comes from the goodness of God. God is a giver, and we must be also. We must strive to emulate him and his nature. God’s word is true, and if we apply his word to our lives, we will have good success. Obeying is key. We must submit to the things of God and what he has already established. Seeking God and his righteousness we will not go wrong. We are a chosen people created for great exploits. We are to do mighty things for the Kingdom of God. Support the work of the ministry, be generous, and trust God, no matter what. Live a faithful life and pass it on to the next generation. Leave a legacy of faith and righteousness. I pray that if you are a new believer that you will take these simple and practical tools and apply them to your daily life as you grow in your walk with the Lord. For those of you who may have been in the body of Christ for some time, my prayer is that these seven biblical principles will enhance your walk with Christ. There are only seven principles listed here. As you are growing in the image of God, you will adopt more of his principles such as giving, honesty, and serving. You are already fully equipped with what you need to be victorious and successful as a Christ like individual. Develop your gifts. Seek his guidance daily, submit each day to him and all that you aspire to do. He will lead you by his spirit in the path that you should take. Include him. Remember, anything that he’s not in dies. Consult with him even in the seemingly small and insignificant things. He wants to be a part of it all. I pray that this helps and encourages your life. In Jesus’s name, Amen.
