Download or read book Truth Grace and Security written by Bruno Corduan and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-02-22 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains two stories, but the first one is nested in the second one. The first part is Bruno Corduan's short autobiography, which begins with him as a boy in a family of rather limited means growing up in Germany during the Nazi era. Having come to trust Christ at an early age and carrying no illusions about the Nazis or their opposition to biblical Christianity and those who practiced it, one might wonder with what anxieties and uncertainties this boy must be struggling, particularly as he gets old enough to be compelled into military service. The surprising answer is "none" because he knows himself to be guided by God, who will protect him physically as well as spiritually. This unreserved trust becomes palpable in a number of instances that are worthy of being deemed miracles. As Bruno continues his life into adulthood in the new Germany, he never ceases to experience the guidance of God. Having grown up in poverty, we find him decades later as a diplomat for the German government and for NATO, negotiating multimillion dollar contracts, having achieved greater success than anyone could have predicted. Still Bruno never lost sight of who really was in charge of his life. Thus, simultaneous with his official duties, we always find him actively engaged in promoting the work of the Lord. He poured his life into this calling as much as into his professional vocation, serving as pastor, teacher, leader, and even church founder. And thus, we come to the second story. This one is much larger, cosmic in size, and Bruno sees his life as just one small instance thereof. In fact, when he finally consented to write out the story of his life at age eighty-two, he would only do so if he could also include this much larger story, namely the history of how God reached down to earth to establish a relationship with human beings through the life and death of his Son. What is it that makes it possible for someone to lead a life such as Bruno's? It is not human energy. What he insists on throughout his exposition is that neither is it piety or religiosity. It is the work of God who will awaken all people who believe in him from spiritual death and give them a life in which he will demonstrate that he is, indeed, the gracious and sovereign Lord of the universe. In short, the first part of this book is Bruno Corduan's autobiography. The second part is his exposition of the gospel and of Christianity, in which he is always reminding us that our salvation and walk with God are the consequences of God's gracious work, and not of our own religious efforts.

Difficult passages from Scripture are tackled head-on and explained with clarity. Do you sometimes doubt your salvation? If you do, then know that this is not a product of living by faith. This is why the fear that you can lose your salvation is a hindrance to your Christian walk. If the doctrine of unconditional security is true, then to disbelieve it is to disbelieve God. God has given us the truth in His Word. It is up to us to know it and apply it so that we can live the victorious Christian life as our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ intends us to.

Download or read book Sole Reliance written by Ann Kegley and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have the Holy Spirit who was sent from heaven to guide us, counsel us, encourage us, and teach us the truth of God so we are enabled to live according to Gods plan for man. As we grow in our faith, we eventually learn to become less dependent on human support. Not that having support from others is not beneficial, because it is. But there comes a time in the progression of our faith when God will draw us closer to Him. In fact, inevitably He will wean us from the necessity for external support and transition us toward a dependency on our internal support: Him. He has a covenant with us, and He is committed to the fulfillment of His covenant. As John stated, because His anointing abides in us, we have no need for anyone to teach us, because He will. We learn to live a life of sole reliance on Him.

Legendary Bible teacher Derek Prince explores various ways in which God provides security, highlighting the conditions we must meet in order to qualify for His protection in each area of our lives.

Download or read book Change written by B&H Editorial Staff and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Only the Truth Will Do Faced with real-life tests—whether to our reason or our reserves—we more easily doubt than believe, more quickly despair than trust. But often our tentativeness to stand on the Word of God is less a lack of courage and more a lack of knowledge. We know what we’ve heard; we know what we’ve been told. But what’s the truth? What does the Bible really say? What can we grab onto by faith and never let go? This book is an entire collection of biblical truth that deals with a specific area of life—a specific need, a specific topic, a specific place where questions have always seemed more prevalent than answers. But as each page attests, the Scripture will always provide a firm place to dig in and defend. Be sure of what’s true, and you’ll feel a lot more sure of the next step.

Download or read book THE TRUTH OF GRACE The Error Of Hypergrace written by Tope Oni and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book - The Truth of Grace; the Error of Hypergrace - addresses the error of 'eternal security, otherwise called 'hypergrace', or 'once saved, saved forever, which teaches that once a Christian receives and confesses Jesus, that Christian is sure of making heaven, regardless of any sins he or she continues to commit. It teaches that God keeps no record of any sins committed by a Christian, and that confession of sins and repentance is not necessary for a Christian. In its extreme form, it also affirms that only the Epistles are meant for Christians and that the Old Testament, the Four Gospels, and the Book of Revelation are not for Christians. It has been found that this dangerous doctrine is growing geometrically and festering extensively in the Church, and is particularly attractive to young people. The doctrine is meant to weaken the church, subtly destroy the church, quench the genuine fire of true soul-winning, and wage war against the message of holiness, righteousness and focus on eternity. It is meant to send a large number of people to hellfire, who will only wake up to know the truth in the lake of fire when repentance will no longer be possible. This book, which is the product of a just-completed Thesis in Masters of Theology in LIFE Theological Seminary, Ikorodu, presents the centrality, power, and wonderful significance of the true grace of God, which delivers Christians from the penalty of sin through forgiveness and from the power of sin through progressive sanctification, and which empowers a believer to serve God, obey God and do the will of God in all things. It presents the content and teachings of hypergrace and eternal security, which are then confronted and debunked by the Word of God. It presents the causes for the increasing spread of this error in the church today, the consequences, and the way out. It addresses the two sides of God, why we must fear God, and how to overcome besetting sins through progressive sanctification. It also ends with a comment on the true eternal security for the genuine believer that fears God, obeys God, believes God, and trusts in the sustaining power and the unfailing promises of God to keep the true saint to the very end. Teens, Youths, Pastors, Parents, Theological Students and Scholars, and indeed all heaven-bound believers will find the contents of this book and the emerging revelations highly helpful, edifying and life-transforming.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever found yourself involved in a conversation about the idea of “once saved, always saved”—one that turned into a religious argument? Saved and Sure, Safe and Secure seeks to demonstrate from the Scriptures that a born-again Christian, once saved, can have assurance that he or she is saved and safe for eternity. Writing in simple terms and plain language in order to communicate Bible doctrine to the average person, author John David Martin affirms the doctrine of eternal security of believers in Christ and addresses common objections to the teaching of “once saved, always saved.” Whether you believe in eternal security or think you can “lose it,” Pastor Martin hopes to help you strengthen your faith and challenge your thinking on the subject. Many religious people who believe in God and profess to know Christ as their personal Savior still struggle with doubts concerning their salvation. If you are worried, you can put your fears to rest; this study can help. Aiming to encourage and uplift believers, this theological study explores the topic of eternal security, analyzing the biblical truths that teach and reinforce the certainty of this concept.
