Download or read book Salvation for All written by Gerald O'Collins and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-03-21 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines in depth and at length what the Old Testament and the New Testament hold about the salvation of God's 'other peoples'. The Bible repeatedly witnesses to the universal scope of the divine love for all human beings and the chances of salvation that are available to them. Since the Israelites experienced for many centuries, both at home and abroad, the religion and culture of numerous other peoples, the Old Testament texts have much to say, both positively and negatively, about the religious prospects and destiny of these peoples. In its second half this book scrutinizes what Jesus, the evangelists, Paul and the Letter to the Hebrews indicate about God's loving designs for all human beings. At the end, the book breaks new ground by developing the universal presence of the risen Jesus (along with the Holy Spirit) and his role as universal Wisdom, and the full teaching of the Letter to the Hebrews on the possibility of faith for all people.

Download or read book Grace written by Andrew Wommack and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good Enough for God? Recent surveys indicate that the vast majority of Christians, those claiming to be born-again, believe that their salvation is at least in part dependent upon their behavior and actions. Yes, they believe Jesus died for their sin, but once they accept Him as their savior, they believe they must still meet a certain standard to be "good" enough. If that is true, then what is that standard and how do you know when you have met it? The Church has tried to answer these questions for centuries and it always results in religious and legalistic bondage. So what is the answer? It begins by asking the right question. It is not, "What must we do?" but rather, "What did Jesus do?" By understanding the Apostle Paul's revelation of what Jesus did from the book of Romans, you will never again wonder if you're meeting the standard.

Download or read book The Evangel written by Don I. Bast and published by . This book was released on 2014-04-12 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As it was so long ago, it appears to be today. The same two evils plague many of God's people: #1, they have forsaken God, the fountain of living waters, and #2, they have hewn out for themselves wells—broken wells, that contain not the waters (Jeremiah 2:13).The author identifies two main tendencies that “Christians” are drawn to as “Legalism” and “Fatalism”. He himself spent over twenty years drinking from each, never able to quench his thirst for God.At the age of 22, after a dramatic conversion, almost immediately he joined a religious cult and spent years in spiritual bondage. Attempting to establish his own righteousness, he was not able to be subject to the righteousness of God (Romans 10:3). Year after year, he remained ignorant of the fact that he was being exempted from Christ, by seeking to be justified in law. The rules, creeds and doctrines, which he followed religiously, actually caused him to fall out of the realm where grace operates (Galatians 5:4,5).Finally in his 40's he came to the realization of what it really means to be saved in grace through faith, alone. As is often the case, when the pendulum, swings too far one way, it does the same in the opposite direction. For the next 20 years he abused his freedom in Christ, simply enjoying life and wasting precious time and energy. Finally, at the age of 60, when a financial crisis hit, his whole world seemed to crumble and all his pet doctrines were tested. Painfully, over the next few years, God steadily awakened him out of his apathy and fatalist view of life and the scriptures. In this writing he shares the secret message he discovered. The message is none other than the gospel of God. It is the good news of Christ crucified, entombed and risen, according to the scriptures. The message itself is God's power for salvation to all who actually believe it (Romans 1:16). It alone can make one free to get hold of life really.

Download or read book God s Power for Your Life written by A.W. Tozer and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2013-04-19 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's Word and God's Spirit Lead You to Experience God's Presence "Get on your knees with an outspread Bible," A.W. Tozer challenged his congregation, "and linger in the presence of God." Much has been claimed about the Bible that has obscured the true significance of Scripture for the Christian's life. But now, this never-before-published teaching from renowned preacher and theologian A.W. Tozer brings clarity where there has been confusion. Can we trust the Bible? What is Scripture for? According to Tozer, the Holy Spirit operates through the written Word of God to move believers into an ever deeper experience of God's presence. God's Power for Your Life is more than information about the Bible, however; this book is a guide for experiencing fellowship with the Father through His Word. Discover all the Bible is meant to be for your life with God.
Download or read book Unlikely Fighter written by Greg Stier and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some memories are permanently seared into our childhood brains with a hot iron of adrenaline and fear. For five-year-old Greg, it was the memory of his ma walking back to the house after confronting his stepdad with a splintered, bloodied baseball bat in her hand. Greg Stier was raised in a family of bodybuilding, tobacco-chewing, fist-fighting thugs. He never knew his biological father because his mom had met his dad at a party; she got pregnant, and he left town. Though his mom almost aborted him, in a last-minute twist, Greg’s life was spared for so much more. Unlikely Fighter is the incredible story of how God showed up in Greg’s life—and how he can show up in yours as well. This is a memoir of violence and mayhem—and how God can transform everything.
Download or read book The Reason for My Hope written by Billy Graham and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The saving message of the Gospel is the heartbeat of this preacher and evangelist. Millions around the world heard Billy Graham proclaim this unchanging truth. He never forgot the transformation of his own life, when he first said yes to God’s gift of salvation, and he witnessed multitudes turn their hearts to the God of Hope. What is the most hopeful word in History? For Billy Graham, that word is SALVATION. Billy Graham proclaimed God's Gospel with resolve and deep compassion. It is a message he preached for more than seventy years. And in this book you will sense its urgency, filled with hope for the future. Salvation is what we all long for, when we are lost or in danger or have made a mess of our lives. And salvation belongs to us, when we reach out for the only One who can rescue us—Jesus. The Reason for My Hope: Salvation presents the essence of that transformative message. It is biblical and timeless, and though simple and direct, it is far from easy. There are hard words, prophetic words, directed toward a culture that denies the reality of sin and distracts us from the veracity of Hell. But through its ominous warnings shines a light that cannot be extinguished—a beacon of hope that Jesus came “to seek and to save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10).

Download or read book The Glory Now Revealed written by Andrew M. Davis and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Believers know that when we die we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won't it get boring at some point? According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God's glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time. The mysteries of providence, the hidden movements of God throughout history, and the forgotten and unnoted works of even the most obscure of God's people will be unveiled so that we can see how wise, loving, gracious, and powerful our God is. And though we will experience perfection in heaven, we will never be omniscient, which means we will always be learning more about God's glory, inspiring us to return joyful praise and thanksgiving. If your vision of heaven has been limited to clouds and harps and angels, it's time to expand that view with the truth found in this biblically based look at the afterlife.
