Book excerpt: The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God's Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) Reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) "Gospel Glimpses" highlight the gospel of grace throughout each book; (3) "Whole-Bible Connections" show how any given passage connects to the Bible's overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) "Theological Soundings" identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God's grace on each and every page of the Bible. Paul's first letter to the Corinthian church contains one of the most quoted chapters in all of the Bible: 1 Corinthians 13. In this accessible study, pastor and author Jay Thomas helps readers see that this epistle is about more than love and marriage. At the heart of 1 Corinthians is the reality that the good news of Jesus Christ saves, changes, and unites God's people.

Download or read book Manifesting Magically vs Manifesting Purpose written by Keyjuana Jones and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone is manifesting all these things, good and evil. We have done our research and there are many how to publications and video content baiting us and we are hooked. We have a lot of knowledge, so what is it that is missing? I was a fish with a few hooks in my mouth. I was being pulled in, and I didn't want to be unsure about my final destination, so I asked God for wisdom. My heart was not amiss when I prayed and so God granted what I asked for. I wanted the truth even if that meant I had to repent. The Holy Spirit resided with me and told me to write as the mysteries of diverse types of manifesting were being unveiled. Knowledge without the increase of spiritual wisdom is lack of knowledge, a husband without a wife, and a form of godliness that denies the power of God, we need to manifest his good and perfect will in our lives. God's thoughts toward us are always good and not evil. Word of wisdom has searched our hearts and inspired my own heart and hand to call aloud, raising her voice in the public square (Proverbs 1:20). It is her agenda and the assignment of this publication to call all those who are hidden, scattered, and those who are perishing from a lack of knowledge and do not perceive our lack. Many are called, but few are chosen. God chooses those who answer the call. He who has ears, let them hear what the Spirit has to say about Manifesting Magically vs. Manifesting Purpose.

Download or read book 1 Corinthians written by Dr. Matthew N. O. Sadiku and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1 Corinthians A Pentecostal Commentary Every serious student of the Bible desires to understand the text, discover biblical principles, and apply the truths to his/her life. This commentary is designed to help students, pastors, and Bible teachers understand 1 Corinthians in a simple manner. Working from the popular New International Version (NIV), the author provides helpful commentary on the text verse-by-verse. This verse-by-verse commentary is different from others in two respects. First, it is brief while some commentaries are unnecessarily wordy and verbose. Second, it is Pentecostal in outlook. This implies that we generally adhere to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy and adopt a literalist approach to the interpretation of the Bible. First Corinthians has been described as the most practical lengthy epistle Paul wrote. No other epistle covers so many different issues that are relevant to the Church today.

Download or read book Why Can t Believers Just Believe written by Alphonse Okossi Phd and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of faith means a lot of things to a lot of people. Even among the Christian community the awareness of the importance of living by faith is very weak as people tend to trust more what they see rather than what they cannot see. Faith for every Christian is worth fighting to death. The good fight of faith is a personal journey that shows the nature of what is in our heart. It is a personal journey and internal struggle between the forces of good and evil, between the old self and the new self inside the Christian believer. It is also a battle that must be fought in the environment where we live and in every circumstance of life.It is a spiritual battle that God has already won through the life, death at the Cross and resurrection from the death of Jesus Christ, however the individual believer must receive that victory into his or her own life by faith and stand firm on their faith in the face of adversity and even persecution.

Book excerpt: On a cold April day, sixteen-year old Ben Hylden tried on his suit coat for the upcoming school prom, then sped toward nearby Park River, ND for an appointment. Running late and driving too fast, he lost control of his car on ice, flipped the car and was thrown out the passenger's door-plunging face first into an icy field. Hylden's face and body were crushed beyond recognition, along with his dreams of being a basketball star. After being found by his parents in the field just minutes later and rushed to a nearby hospital, he was only given a 5% chance to survive due to the severity of his injuries. However, as he dramatically surpassed the expectations of his doctors, he miraculously escaped his supposed death sentence and began on a remarkable journey of faith and recovery where he endured many life hardships, which ultimately taught him what truly matters most in life.

Download or read book Becoming a Biblical Leader 30 Days of Scriptural Principle and Spiritual Growth written by Jeremy Norton and published by Ambassador International. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuing biblically-driven personal growth is critical for the leader who desires to have an effective, God-centered ministry. Scriptures like Philippians 1:6 confirm that any call God places upon us will be carried out for His glory and the blessing of others; but growth, cultivation, and harvest require a spirit of honesty and humility and a commitment to conform to the leadership and character of Christ. Becoming a Biblical Leader: 30 Days of Scriptural Principle and Spiritual Growth beckons the reader to focus on one's calling as a biblical leader and offers thirty days of simple lessons and reflection as tools to experience the growth necessary to truly lead well. Endorsements “In this book, Jeremy approaches leadership in a holistic manner, dealing with ideas and issues that every leader needs to contemplate. Each principle is rooted in God’s Word which is Jeremy’s anchor throughout the book. He also gives a leadership challenge for every principle, allowing the reader to practically apply that principle to their own situation. This is a valuable resource for anyone in leadership, desiring to become the leader that God has called them to become.” Dave Lane Satellite Director Youth Unlimited YFC Sarnia-Lambton “Becoming A Biblical Leader is a thoughtful and practical workbook that can help both individuals and groups as they work through key thoughts about leadership. As a thirty-day daily guide, it is succinct enough to be used in a variety of settings and with a cross-section of people, helping in their foundational development as leaders.” David Horita Pacific Region Director Fellowship of Evangelical Baptist Churches “Serving Christ in a northern church presents many unique challenges and joys. As seen in the life of Jesus and Paul the wilderness affords opportunity in the journey of knowing God. Pastor Jeremy Norton, in the great tradition of being formed and forming others in Christ, has some wise and generous counsel for those serving fellow believers in the ways of God’s Word. Becoming a Biblical Leader brings us to that far off beach where Paul and the leaders of the Ephesian church knelt down and prayed to God for the sake of Gospel and Church. May we all join them and learn something of what Jesus said concerning leadership; that it was “not so among you” as it is among the Nations. The Jesus way surely begins on our knees. Rev. Dr. T. Gregory Anderson Pastor in the North
