Download or read book The Commands of the Apostles written by Michael Phillips and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of The Commands of Jesus presents a companion volume exploring 120 commands from the New Testament’s epistles and apostolic writings. Most studies of the epistles of the New Testament emphasize theology. In The Commands of the Apostles, noted devotional author Michael Phillips instead puts the focus of the practical commands of the Apostolic writers—and how we might follow them in our daily lives. Considering the important command found in Hebrews 6 1 2—“Let us go on to maturity”—Phillips suggests that spiritual maturity requires nothing more or less that attaining Christlikeness through obedience to commands. He therefore asks readers to put elementary doctrines aside and focus instead on the commands we as Christians are called upon to obey.

Hell and Beyond is a lively and fascinating trip through the afterlife—one that will inspire you to rediscover the significance of your life here and now. “Phillips has offered a breathtaking and important addition to the world of traditional theological allegory, joining Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress and C.S.

Download or read book The Five Commandments of Jesus written by Patrick J. Amer and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In The Five Commandments of Jesus: A New Approach to Christianity, Patrick Amer presents to the ordinary Christian and the theologian alike his new, refreshing, and clear approach to the mission and meaning of Jesus of Nazareth. Amer identifies the five commandments of Jesus as central within the recorded ethical teachings of Jesus. These five commandments show the continued relevance and importance of Jesus in expressing God's will and plan for humankind. The book is clearly written and readily accessible to all readers. Discussion groups across denominations will find that this book meets each reader at the exact point at which we all find ourselves today." Roger Haight, S. J., Union Theological Seminary In this book, Patrick Amer describes his discovery of the five commandments of Jesus. He shows that the commandments are not a random selection of commands. They are an integrated and focused attack on humanity's most deeply embedded anti-social behaviors, those placed there by natural selection. He shows that these behaviors were in ancient times absorbed into humanity's public institutions, and they are still there. The kingdom of God is the community of men and women who live by the five commandments of Jesus, applying them in their personal lives and to public institutions as well. This book examines each commandment to show how it is to be practiced in one's personal life and how it is to be applied to public institutions. By practicing the five commandments of Jesus, the followers of Jesus participate in his redeeming mission and with him save the world.

Download or read book The Jesus Command written by Matthew Milam II and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me..." (Matthew 11:29 NIV). Any image, no matter what kind, is simply a rendition of the original. the copy must follow the impression made by the master. In unlocking the pattern of making a "True Disciple", a close and detailed study of Jesus, the master, must be considered. Discipleship is an important charge, carrying a great responsibility. When entering the task of preparing another as a disciple, heed should be taken. Care--and caution--play a big part in the equation. In both instances, whether one serves as instructor or student, as Jesus said, one must above all, consider the cost. "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won't you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?" (Luke 14:28 NIV) Rather than being an event that one arrives at, Discipleship is more of a journey that is traveled over the course of one's life. Each step is part of a process by which we adapt, learning to grow more Christ-like along the way. We take His yoke and learn from Him, just as the men who became His Apostles did. the cost necessary involves not only a loving devotion to Jesus, but to do so from a willing and obedient heart. the Jesus Command, the command to love one another as He loved us, creates a new beginning for everyone that accepts it.
