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.

Download or read book Glory Road written by Anthony J. Carter and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-06-17 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten African-American leaders in the church tell their stories of how they embraced Reformed theology and what effect it has had on their lives and ministries. The ten men who have contributed to this book are often asked, "How did you come to embrace Reformed theology?" With the recent surge in popularity of Reformed theology in the broader evangelical world and the growing interest among African-Americans, it shouldn't seem curious that more and more African-American churchmen are embracing Reformed theology. But the question remains, and Glory Road provides an answer, using personal accounts tracing their conversion to Christianity, their introduction to and embrace of Reformed theology, and this theology's effect on their lives and ministries. Ultimately, Glory Road is about the glory of God in providentially bringing men and women to the truths of salvation. In addition to the book's editor, Anthony J. Carter, Glory Road includes contributions from such notable pastors as Thabiti Anyabwile, Ken Jones, Michael Leach, and Eric Redmond.
Download or read book The Doctrine of Reconciliation written by Arthur W. Pink and published by Sovereign Grace Publishers,. This book was released on 2006-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur W. Pink (1890-1953) launched his yearly publication, Studies in the Scriptures in 1921. These continued until his death, altogether 33 volumes of 288 pp. each. Most of Pink's books are taken from these yearly books (written monthly in 24 page format). This title is one of the many taken from eight of those monthly magazines. Readers will find thorough consideration of all the facets of this Biblical Doctrine of Reconciliation. Pink covers: Its Arrangement; Its Need, Its Effectuation; Its Meaning; Its Scope; and Its Reception. There are Scriptures galore cited. Undoubtedly the reader will grow rich in knowledge and in the grace of Christ. The pages are full, with probably 400 words to a page, so buyers will get their moneys worth. As an example of what a master workman like Pink does, note that he cites Romans 12:1, 2: [This verse] ''supplies an interpretation of the rites of the Law and of the reasonable part of the O. T. order of things. Thus, he who would make a covenant with God is required to give up himself wholly unto God with a sincere and firm resolution unto a new life of obedience to Him. If there is any reservation the covenant is marred in the making of it: ''Their heart was not right with Him, neither were they steadfast in His covenant'' (Ps. 78:37). Goodwin's Reconciliation by the Blood of Christ is a sermon he preached on Colossians 1:20, in which He describes the seeming impossibility of reconciling totally depraved men to a holy God. Who is sufficient for such a task? He proves that only Christ Jesus had the fitness to fill this role of perfect obedience to the Law, together with an acceptable sacrifice to propitiate the wrath of God toward men.
Download or read book A Meal with Jesus written by Tim Chester and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meals have always been important across societies and cultures, a time for friends and families to come together. An important part of relationships, meals are vital to our social health. Author Tim Chester sums it up: "Food connects." Chester argues that meals are also deeply theological—an important part of Christian fellowship and mission. He observes that the book of Luke is full of stories of Jesus at meals. These accounts lay out biblical principles. Chester notes, "The meals of Jesus represent something bigger." Six chapters in A Meal with Jesus show how they enact grace, community, hope, mission, salvation, and promise. Moving from biblical times to the modern world, Chester applies biblical truth to challenge our contemporary understandings of hospitality. He urges sacrificial giving and loving around the table, helping readers consider how meals can be about serving others and sharing the grace of Christ.

Book excerpt: Profound reflections on the cross that help you to meditate on and marvel at the sacrificial love of Jesus. This book can be used as a devotional, especially during Lent and Easter. These profound reflections on the cross from David Mathis, author of The Christmas We Didn’t Expect, will help you to meditate on and marvel at Jesus’ life, sacrificial death, and spectacular resurrection-enabling you to treasure anew who Jesus is and what he has done. Many of us are so familiar with the Easter story that it becomes easy to miss subtle details and difficult to really enjoy its meaning. This book will help you to pause and marvel at Jesus, whose now-glorified wounds are a sign of his unfailing love and the decisive victory that he has won: “He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5) This book can be used as a devotional. The chapters on Holy Week make it especially helpful during the Lent season and at Easter.

Download or read book The blood of Jesus written by Joseph Vu Phu Thinh (Father) and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. John affirms in his First Letter: "The blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin" (1 Jn 1:7). This revealed truth becomes the aspiration for the researcher to embark into a journey of "faith seeking understanding" a journey to grasp, to a certain extent, the virtue of the blood of Jesus in relation to reconciliation of man to God. In fact, the theme of reconciliation is not something abstract to be put on the table of theological speculation. Rather, it is very practical. It is deeply experienced by man in his daily life as he tries, on the one hand, to experience God's forgiveness and, on the other hand, to forgive those who offends him. For this reason, the content of this investigation is not something utopian since it is related directly to the salvation o the human race. Theologically speaking, man, from the time of old, has committed sin against God who created him in his image and likeness (see Gen 1:26). The history of salvation is a dynamics of SIN-PUNISHMENT-REPENTANCE-FORGIVENESS. Such a history, on the one hand, exposes the weakness of man. On the other hand, it manifests God's abundant love. That is why Christoph Schwöbel calls the whole process of reconciliation of man to God "the logic of love," which is expressed powerfully in Scriptures through the images of blood: the blood of animals in the Old Testament and especially the blood, poured out on the cross, of the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world (see Jn 1:29). To be precise, with the use of the historical hermeneutic method of research in different Chapters of the study, the researcher has carried out his investigation. The study has offered the following findings: first, as history unfolds, the concept of "blood" has been used in human early history. However, the concept of "blood" gains a deeper meaning and significance in Judaism and Christianity (Chapter II) ; second, reconciliation is one of the prominent themes in Catholic theology. It deals with the reality of man's sin and God's love. It comprises two dimensions: Liturgical and Trinitarian (Chapter III) ; third, we believe that God created man in order that man may participate in the life and glory of God. However, man has sinned. Hence, there is a need of reconciliation. God has made this reconciliation available to man through the precious Blood of His Only Begotten Son. (Chapter IV). The author hopes that with this investigation, there will be a deeper realization among Christians about the power of the blood of Jesus poured out on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. Consequently, there would be a transformation in the way they relate to God and in their readiness to forgive one another.
