Download or read book Being the Bad Guys written by Stephen McAlpine and published by The Good Book Company. This book was released on 2021-02-01 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to live confidently for Jesus in today's world. The church used to be recognized as a force for good, but this is changing rapidly. Christians are now often seen as the bad guys, losing both respect and influence. In our post-Christian culture, how do we offer the gospel to those around us who view it as not only wrong but possibly dangerous? And how do we ensure that the secular worldview does not entice us away with its constant barrage, online and elsewhere, of messages about self-determinism? Author Stephen McAlpine offers an analysis of how our culture ended up this way and explains key points of tension between biblical Christianity and secular culture. He encourages Christians not to be ashamed of the gospel as it is more liberating, fulfilling and joyful than anything the world has to offer. He also offers strategies for coping in this world, with its opposing values, and for reaching out to others wisely with the truth.

Download or read book The Prodigal Prophet written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An angry prophet. A feared and loathsome enemy. A devastating storm. And the surprising message of a merciful God to his people. The story of Jonah is one of the most well-known parables in the Bible. It is also the most misunderstood. Many people, even those who are nonreligious, are familiar with Jonah: A rebellious prophet who defies God and is swallowed by a whale. But there's much more to Jonah's story than most of us realize. In The Prodigal Prophet, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller reveals the hidden depths within the book of Jonah. Keller makes the case that Jonah was one of the worst prophets in the entire Bible. And yet there are unmistakably clear connections between Jonah, the prodigal son, and Jesus. Jesus in fact saw himself in Jonah. How could one of the most defiant and disobedient prophets in the Bible be compared to Jesus? Jonah's journey also doesn't end when he is freed from the belly of the fish. There is an entire second half to his story--but it is left unresolved within the text of the Bible. Why does the book of Jonah end on what is essentially a cliffhanger? In these pages, Timothy Keller provides an answer to the extraordinary conclusion of this biblical parable--and shares the powerful Christian message at the heart of Jonah's story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you think your smartphone might be controlling too much of your life these days? Wait till they insert it in your brain! Due to a perfect storm among powerful corporations, powerful governments, and futuristic, mesmerizing phone technology, you soon will be asked to have a next generation of smartphone physically inserted in your brain. Many of your friends will say yes, buying into the wonders the device promises. The reality, however, will be much more nightmarish. Don’t want the implant? Too bad—the government will want you to get one. Will controlling entities monitor your thoughts? You bet. Will Artificial Intelligence take over the network? It’s likely. Will the brainphone eventually ruin humankind as we know it? Yes, it will. Does this scenario sound like the End of Days? Maybe—the brainphone is very similar to a device described in The Holy Bible. From humans-and-technology expert Scott Snair, Ph.D., this book makes the compelling argument that you are about to enter a new phase of human existence, as people are merged with a technology that alters them, monitors them, and, in many ways, commands them. Fortunately, there are ways you can resist this fusion, if you choose to push back. The Brainphone Prophecy explains how. Chapters include: Why Are You About to Have a Smartphone Inserted in Your Skull?; How Will Your Brainphone Work? How Will Corporations and Governments Monitor Your Thoughts?; How Will the Brainphone Bring Us Down?; How Might the Brainphone Signify the End of Times?; How Might You Revolt Against the Prophecy?; more.
