Download or read book What God Wants You to Know An In Depth Look at Jesus from Genesis to Revelation written by Mary C. Williams and published by Trilogy Christian Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-09 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God wants us to know that above all else, He loves and adores us. When the knowledge of God fuels the love for God, we are more equipped to serve and honor Him with our lives. As our understanding of God increases and what He wants us to know is revealed to us through the Holy Spirit, the majesty of His infinite excellence and love shines. This understanding helps us to adore and appreciate His essence and the greatness of the gifts He has given to us. In 2 Corinthians 4:6, Paul wrote: "For God, who said: 'Let the light shine out of darkness!'" And this is the same God who made His light shine in our hearts to let us know that His own divine greatness (glory) is seen in the face of Christ! What God Wants You to Know is a journey through both testaments that will open your eyes to an understanding of just who God is and demonstrates His foreshadowing of the nature of Christ throughout the Old Testament and His presentation of Christ and His plan for salvation throughout the New Testament. What God Wants You to Know will ignite a thirst to understand the Heavenly Father in a new way and set readers on a path to understand who He calls them to be.

Download or read book The Beauty of the Lord written by Jonathan King and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is God's beauty often absent from our theology? Rarely do theologians take up the theme of God's beauty—even more rarely do they consider how God's beauty should shape the task of theology itself. But the psalmist says that the heart of the believer's desire is to behold the beauty of the Lord. In The Beauty of the Lord, Jonathan King restores aesthetics as not merely a valid lens for theological reflection, but an essential one. Jesus, our incarnate Redeemer, displays the Triune God's beauty in his actions and person, from creation to final consummation. How can and should theology better reflect this unveiled beauty? The Beauty of the Lord is a renewal of a truly aesthetic theology and a properly theological aesthetics.

Download or read book Jesus written by Michael J Gibbs and published by Michael Gibbs. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written for the purpose of magnifying the person of Jesus Christ. After fifty plus years as a professing Christian, the author found himself in the embarrassing position of realizing that his knowledge of all Jesus is, was, and is to be was sorely lacking. The degree of his concern over what he knew he didn't know motivated him to search deeper and deeper into what the Bible in it's entirety has to say about Jesus. What he found on this journey has forever changed his life and brought him closer to God. Some of the questions answered in this work are as follows: Does the Bible have one central message or is it a complex mixture of allegory designed to be open to many interpretations? Do the Old and New Testaments flow together in continuity or do they serve separate purposes? Does God have a heart and if so, what is in it? What is the distinction between God the Father and Jesus the Son? What is the purpose and significance of God's law? Does God have two sets of "chosen people" or just one? What were the promises God made to Abraham and to whom do they apply? Can we identify the "true Israel of God"? Can I know "what God wants from me"? At first glance, one might legitimately ask what some of these issues have to do with Jesus. From Genesis to Revelation, "Jesus the Main Thing" answers what Scripture has to say about all the above and much more, and how they relate to the most Supreme message of all time, The Gospel of Jesus Christ?

Download or read book The Bible Tells Me So written by Peter Enns and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The controversial Bible scholar and author of The Evolution of Adam recounts his transformative spiritual journey in which he discovered a new, more honest way to love and appreciate God’s Word. Trained as an evangelical Bible scholar, Peter Enns loved the Scriptures and shared his devotion, teaching at Westminster Theological Seminary. But the further he studied the Bible, the more he found himself confronted by questions that could neither be answered within the rigid framework of his religious instruction or accepted among the conservative evangelical community. Rejecting the increasingly complicated intellectual games used by conservative Christians to “protect” the Bible, Enns was conflicted. Is this what God really requires? How could God’s plan for divine inspiration mean ignoring what is really written in the Bible? These questions eventually cost Enns his job—but they also opened a new spiritual path for him to follow. The Bible Tells Me So chronicles Enns’s spiritual odyssey, how he came to see beyond restrictive doctrine and learned to embrace God’s Word as it is actually written. As he explores questions progressive evangelical readers of Scripture commonly face yet fear voicing, Enns reveals that they are the very questions that God wants us to consider—the essence of our spiritual study.

Download or read book What Does God Look Like written by Linda Wilson and published by Inspiring Voices. This book was released on 2012-12 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a little boy asks his mother about what God looks like-and many other questions as well-she answers him with lots of details. This story began when author Linda Wilson's three daughters were young. This story was written and illustrated in response to their questions and the questions of many other children through the years about God. Children yearn for the literal, touchable truth about all things, including the unseen God of the universe. Understanding that truth is quite a task for children in their formative years. Their eager and open minds deserve good answers to their good questions. What Does God Look Like? seeks to - help each child know who God is and how much He loves and cares about each of them; - relieve any fears or misconceptions about death and reveal a biblical, pleasant picture of heaven for them; and - reinforce the teaching that God is not only our Lord and Savior but also our comforter, teacher, and everlasting Father. What Does God Look Like? encourages each child to see God's reflection in his or her face and to make an indelible impression on them that they are made in God's image.
Download or read book The Heart of a son or daughter written by Gery Malanda and published by Gery Malanda. This book was released on with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we develop in our relationship with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, we marvel at His sacrifice for us and His body the Church. Often this prompts a desire for us to go and serve in His kingdom. However, many born again believers do not know why they serve their Heavenly Father or know the right and biblical attitude they should adopt when they are serving their Lord. Brother Gery Malanda (Apostle and Leader of House Of Prayer For All Nations-Europe and Teacher on TBN’s Voice of Healing UK) gives a succinct look at what the bible teaches on our approach in working in the kingdom of God. Brother Gery looks at the example of Jesus Christ and His teachings as well as his own personal experiences to a look at; Am I a slave of Jesus or God? I am friend of God, Jesus our model of a Son who is serving His Father and is also a friend, kings and priest serving their Lord and emphasises that God loves us and He is not trying to punish us. Brother Gery further explores Jesus’s teachings on what should be our attitudes when serving our enemies, attitudes towards different people and explores the meaning of the ‘washing of the feet’. Lastly, he touches on a Leading servant. If you are thinking of helping out in the church in whatever capacity, this book will help you address some of the insecurities that arises as one starts working with other believers. It will help address some of the barriers that may arise but most importantly helps us to adopt the right attitude that is pleasing to our Lord Jesus Christ. A must read!!
Download or read book Who Am I Lord Finding Your Identity in Christ written by Joe Heschmeyer and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The question "Who am I?" is on the minds and hearts of people of all ages. And for good reason: The answer is important! Who we are - or who we think we are - drives our actions and shapes our relationships. While we are asking the right questions about identity, the world is busy feeding us the wrong answers: We are our political party, job title, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity - and the list goes on. But until we know why we were created, by whom, and for what purpose, we can never be truly satisfied. In Who Am I, Lord?, author and speaker Joe Heschmeyer tackles the question of identity by asking two even more important questions: Who is Jesus? Who does he say you are? Only when we understand who Christ really is can he show us who we are. Our identity in Christ opens us to the promises he has made us and leads us to the freedom to be who we were created to be. Who Am I, Lord? will answer the question of your identity in a way that will transform your life.
