Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With the Master Before the Mirror of God's Word is a women's Bible Study on 1st John. The book of First John is a letter of self-examination to see if you are in the faith and living the example of the life of Christ. 1 John 2:1: ""My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous (1 John 2:1). The tone is tender in this book as the Apostle John expresses love and concern to his readers, using that phrase, ""little children"" seven times. As we look in the mirror of God's Word we are to examine our hearts closely and we will see that we need to change!"
Download or read book Rich Man Poor Man and the Bible written by Conrad Boerma and published by . This book was released on 1979-01-01 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Capon, editor of the magazine Crusade, says of this book: `It is a sad fact that those who pride themselves most on knowing their Bibles are often the least tolerant of the poor. The predominantly middle-class nature of most churches has led to the enshrining of the Protestant work ethic as almost an article of faith. Ambition, prosperity, security are seen as virtues akin to godliness. The corollary, that poverty must be the product of laziness, lack of thrift and rootlessness, seems to be taken for granted. This book is a salutary corrective to any who think the Bible lends support to these views. With thoroughness and skill Conrad Boerma combs the biblical text from Genesis to Revelation and finds a consistency in its approach to poverty that must be taken seriously. He shows that the Bible always challenges poverty, which it sees as clearly linked to social structures. God identifies himself with the poor, most clearly in Jesus of Nazareth, who was not so much opposed to possessions as indifferent to them, renouncing his comfortable middle-class upbringing. But Boerma not only challenges unbiblical attitudes to poverty and the poor; he strikes right at the heart of every local church by revealing how far short of the New Testament ideal the contemporary church falls. Instead of providing the secular world with the prototype sharing, loving, compassionate community of men and women equal in the sight of God, he says 'congregations often consist of a number of closed social classes and detached individuals'. Well-meaning and well-planned evangelism is going to leave people cold unless the churches can catch some of the warmth of this book.'

Download or read book True Riches written by John Cortines and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How Are Your Finances Shaping Your Heart? Jesus knew that how we think about money shapes our character. Our approach can make us more like him—full of contentment, purpose, and freedom—or it can cause a tragic separation from God and the joy he offers. We need a firm foundation for faith and finances. In True Riches, John Cortines and Gregory Baumer invite us to experience four transformations in our financial lives, moving from pride to gratitude so that we see everything as a gift; coveting to contentment so that we spend wisely; anxiety to trust so that we save appropriately; and indifference to love so that we give extravagantly. Full of scripture, personal stories, and practical application, True Riches offers a clear path away from the empty pursuit of wealth and into more intimate relationship with God. All author proceeds donated to charity.

Download or read book Rethinking Hell written by Christopher Date and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.

Download or read book Rich Man Poor Man in Proverbs written by Henry Trocino and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-24 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author covers the theme of poverty and prosperity in the book of Proverbs. Money is nearer to our hearts than most of us would care to admit. Perhaps it is one reason why Jesus taught about money more than anything. Prosperity pastors tell us to claim the blessing of material prosperity. Yet what does God say about it? Proverbs will set us free from false beliefs about God's will on wealth. The book of Proverbs is not a book of finances. It does not prescribe neat ethical laws governing prosperity and poverty. Instead, Proverbs teaches us tested truths about wealth and want in light of the social reality of Proverbs. It makes us rethink the tribulations of poverty and, yes, even the troubles of prosperity (Prov. 15:16). This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to learn more about wealth and want from the book of Proverbs.
Download or read book Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus written by Lois Tverberg and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ebook download of Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus, Lois Tverberg challenges readers to follow their Rabbi more closely by reexamining his words in the light of their Jewish context. Doing so will provide a richer, deeper understanding of his ministry, compelling us to live differently, to become more Christ-like. We'll begin to understand why his first Jewish disciples abandoned everything to follow him, to live out his commands. Our modern society, with its individualism and materialism, is very different than the tight-knit, family-oriented setting Jesus lived and taught in. What wisdom can we glean from his Eastern, biblical attitude toward life? How can knowing Jesus within this context shed light on his teachings for us today? In Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus we'll journey back in time to eavesdrop on the conversations that arose among the rabbis of Jesus' day, and consider how hearing Rabbi Jesus with the ears of a first-century disciple can bring new meaning to our faith. And we'll listen to Jewish thinkers through the ages, discovering how ideas that germinated in Jesus' time have borne fruit. Doing so will yield fresh, practical insights for following our Rabbi's teachings from a Jewish point of view.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the rich young ruler asked Jesus how he could obtain eternal life, Jesus told him to sell everything and give it to the poor. He went away sorrowing because he had great possessions. What if someone who was really rich actually did sell everything he owned and gave the money to the poor? Would he know how to survive without money? How would people treat him? Would he try to get a job? There are many possible outcomes. This book explores one of them. Along the way, the man encounters several interesting people who teach him important lessons including humility. In the end, he comes to a greater understanding of why Jesus told the ruler to sell everything and give the money to the poor. It wasn't about money at all. The Bible is clear in teaching that eternal life is only obtained by faith in Jesus Christ. Why then did Jesus tell the man to do what He did? Read, and you will learn.
