Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever asked yourself what changed when you were "born again?" You look in the mirror and see the same reflection - your body hasn't changed. You find yourself acting the same and yielding to those same old temptations - that didn't seem to change either. So you wonder, Has anything really changed? The correct answer to that question is foundational for receiving from God. If you lack this basic understanding, you'll forever ask yourself doubt-filled questions like: "How could God love somebody like me?" and "How can I possibly expect to receive anything from the Lord? I don't deserve it, I'm not good enough!" Spirit, Soul, and Body will help you eliminate those and other doubt-filled questions that destroy your faith. If you have trouble receiving from God, this is a must-read!
Download or read book Physical and Spiritual Salvation written by Wayne ODonnell and published by Wayne ODonnell. This book was released on 2020-05-02 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All my books can be read online free at wayneodonnell.com. “Freely you have received, freely give” (Mt. 10:8). The salvation God provided to us in Jesus (Yeshua in Hebrew, which means ‘salvation’), is comprised of both spiritual and physical parts. Justification and sanctification are spiritual; but glorification, like also resurrection, is physical. God’s workings with Israel are also in the physical realm, the realm where genealogies matter. “The book of the genealogy of Jesus Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham,” Mt. 1:1. So much misinterpretation of scripture, like that of Reformed Theology, is due to their felt need to leave the principle of literal interpretation of scripture because of their failure to differentiate between things like personal spiritual salvation and national physical salvation. The Bible often focuses on spiritual and physical salvation in separate books and passages. For example, Romans 1-8a, Romans 12-16, and 1 John, focus on spiritual salvation. Ezekiel 40-48, the Gospel of Matthew, and Romans 8b-11, focus on physical salvation. Expository surveys of these two sets of passages comprise the content of this book. Physical Salvation: “The glory of Jehovah came into the temple, ... and He said, ... ‘This is the place of My throne and the place of the soles of My feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever,’” Ezekiel 43:4-7. Spiritual Salvation: “Except a man be born again, he can’t see the kingdom of God,” John 3:3. Spiritual Salvation: “Having been justified by faith, we have had our access ... into this grace wherein we stand;” Physical Salvation: “and rejoice in hope of the glory of God,” Romans 5:1-2.
Download or read book Habits of Grace written by David Mathis and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian life is built on three seemingly unremarkable practices: reading the Bible, prayer, and fellowship with other believers. However, according to David Mathis, such “habits of grace” are the God-designed channels through which his glorious grace flows—making them life-giving practices for all Christians. Whether it’s hearing God’s voice (the Word), having his ear (prayer), or participating in his body (fellowship), such spiritual rhythms of the Christian life have the power to awaken our souls to God’s glory and stir our hearts for lifelong service in his name. What’s more, these seemingly simple practices grant us access to a host of spiritual blessings that we can only begin to imagine this side of eternity—and the incredible joy that such blessings bring to God’s children today.
Download or read book God Is the Gospel written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2005-09-08 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:6 This book is a cry from the heart of John Piper. He is pleading that God himself, as revealed in Christ's death and resurrection, is the ultimate and greatest gift of the gospel. None of Christ's gospel deeds and none of our gospel blessings are good news except as means of seeing and savoring the glory of Christ. Forgiveness is good news because it opens the way to the enjoyment of God himself. Justification is good news because it wins access to the presence and pleasures of God himself. Eternal life is good news because it becomes the everlasting enjoyment of Christ. All God's gifts are loving only to the degree that they lead us to God himself. That is what God's love is: his commitment to do everything necessary (most painfully the death of his only Son) to enthrall us with what is most deeply and durably satisfying-namely, himself. Saturated with Scripture, centered on the cross, and seriously joyful, this book leads us to satisfaction for the deep hungers of the soul. It touches us at the root of life where practical transformation gets its daily power. It awakens our longing for Christ and opens our eyes to his beauty. Piper writes for the soul-thirsty who have turned away empty and in desperation from the mirage of methodology. He invites us to slow down and drink from a deeper spring. "This is eternal life," Jesus said, "that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent." This is what makes the gospel-and this book-good news.

Download or read book The Salvation Story written by Mercy Ngwube and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Salvation Story is a book written with the intentions to make known God’s side of the story of grace for those who wish to explore the Christian faith. In the book, you will discover grace as the salvation offered to mankind by God through the blood sacrifice of his Son, Jesus Christ, a salvation which man does not deserve but has been offered because of the infinite love God feels toward mankind. The book explains to the reader how anyone, despite the sinful nature we all share, can be saved just by accepting the sacrifice Jesus Christ offered to the Father. In the book, faith takes on a deeper dimension as the author shares her personal struggles with kidney failure and how her deep-rooted belief that her personal relationship with God will carry her through her medical struggles. It is a book that shows the reader that their faith walk was never meant to be a bed of roses. Using Abraham’s faith walk as an example, the author has demonstrated that there will be obstacles along the way, but with our eyes firmly fixed on the Lord Jesus, He will lead us to our final destination—heaven. With a strong faith in God and desire to set our will aside and follow His commandments, the author implies that we can successfully resist the worldly temptations of sin and therefore live an abundant Christian life as Jesus promised those who will believe in Him in John 10:10.
Download or read book Teachings of Presidents of the Church Brigham Young written by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and published by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This book was released on with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prophet Brigham Young taught the restored gospel of Jesus Christ in a basic, practical way that gave inspiration and hope to the Saints struggling to build a home in the wilderness. Though more than a century has now passed, his words are still fresh and appropriate for us today as we continue the work of building the kingdom of God. President Young declared that as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we possess the “doctrine of life and salvation for all the honest-in-heart” (DBY, 7). He promised that those who receive the gospel in their hearts will have awakened “within them a desire to know and understand the things of God more than they ever did before in their lives” and will begin to “inquire, read and search and when they go to their Father in the name of Jesus he will not leave them without a witness” (DBY, 450). This book reflects the desire of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles to deepen the doctrinal understanding of Church members and to awaken within them a greater desire to know the things of God. It will inspire and motivate individuals, priesthood quorums, and Relief Society classes to inquire, read, search, and then go to their Father in Heaven for a witness of the truth of these teachings. Each chapter contains two sections—“Teachings of Brigham Young” and “Suggestions for Study.” The first section consists of extracts from Brigham Young’s sermons to the early Saints. Each statement has been referenced, and the original spelling and punctuation have been preserved; however, the sources cited will not be readily available to most members. These original sources are not necessary to have in order to effectively study or teach from this book. Members need not purchase additional references and commentaries to study or teach these chapters. The text provided in this book, accompanied by the scriptures, is sufficient for instruction. Members should prayerfully read and study President Young’s teachings in order to gain new insights into gospel principles and discover how those principles apply to their everyday lives. By faithfully and prayerfully studying these selections, Latter-day Saints will have a greater understanding of gospel principles and will more fully appreciate the profound and inspired teachings of this great prophet. The second section of each chapter offers a series of questions that will encourage thoughtful contemplation, personal application, and discussion of President Young’s teachings. Members should refer to and carefully reread his words on the principle being discussed. Deep and prayerful study of these teachings will inspire members to greater personal commitment and will help them resolve to follow the teachings of the Savior, Jesus Christ. If individuals and families prayerfully follow the principles in this book, they will be blessed and inspired to greater dedication and spirituality, as were the early Saints who heard these words directly from the lips of the “Lion of the Lord” (HC, 7:434)—the prophet, seer, and revelator, President Brigham Young.

Download or read book Universal Salvation written by Leith Cunningham and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-06-10 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My dear brothers, sisters, and friends in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Christ in me has given me a specific talent for expounding upon His word. He continues to use my talent in teaching others the most valued message that will ever be heard on this earth. I have done the best that I know to do with what God has given me to work with on the present understanding He has given me. This book is intended to teach you the truth of God that is being withheld from you by this world's deceived Christian religion around the world. Whether it is by way of their spiritual ignorance or by omission, by purposefully failing to teach it, in either case I am exposing them all to you as the tools that Satan has been using since Christ was here on earth, in teaching us the real and factual truth of God. Somehow, God has put this book in your hands. It is my hope and prayer that you will find it useful and are able to glean from it the message it contains. It is not by any accident that you have this book in your hand and are reading these words at this moment in time. If these words mean nothing at all to you, it is either because I have not done a credible service in my over half century of study in searching and seeking out the truth of God to impart to others, or God simply is not calling you at this present time. But that in no way diminishes His unconditional love, care and concern for you and your physical life here on earth. The truth is, if God is not calling you at this time, you cannot come to Him. On the other hand, if you have found something within this book that uplifts, encourages, motivates and you feel a sensation as if some unseen force is drawing you into a seemingly brighter outlook on life and the time you are spending here on earth, God may very well be calling you. Then what you do, is your own decision to make. You do not need me or any man to teach you, the Holy Spirit of God will lead you into all truth. If you are looking for a way to get started in acquainting yourself with the word, the way, and the truth of God, you are welcome to visit our website www.thetruthstandsout.com, It is free of any charge of any kind.

Download or read book Living in the Balance of Grace and Faith written by Andrew Wommack and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2011-06-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular Bible teacher and host of the Gospel Truth broadcast, Andrew Wommack takes on one of the biggest controversies of the church, the freedom of God's grace verses the faith of the believer. Wommack reveals that God's power is not released from only grace or only faith. God's blessings come through a balance of both grace and faith. Addressing many of the misconceptions believers are taught in the Church today, this book opens up the Scriptures revealing the vital connection between grace and faith. Many believers think they walk in both grace and faith when actually they are misusing one or both of these principles. Wommack addresses: * Some believers willingly sin believing Gods grace will cover them, while the blessing of grace is not to sin, but to release guilt and condemnation when they make a mistake. * Other believers think they must "work" their faith by ritualistic prayer, confession, or Bible study. Although all these things are good, Jesus Christ set believers free from works of the law. God wants a relationship where He can communicate directly to each believer. * Grace and faith work together. When believers receive the unmerited favor or grace of God, they can release their faith without doubt or reservation and receive God's blessings. Andrew Wommack in his logical, practical style brings believers back on track in their Christian walk through living in the balance of grace and faith.

Download or read book A Fourfold Salvation written by Arthur W. Pink and published by . This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Salvation is of eternal importance yet it is very often misunderstood. In A Fourfold Salvation Author W. Pink addresses the subject of salvation by addressing; Salvation from the Pleasure of Sin, Salvation from the Penalty of Sin, Salvation from the Power of Sin, and Salvation from the Presence of Sin. "Ask the average Christian, Are you saved? and he answers, Yes, I was saved in such and such a year; and that is as far as his thoughts on the subject go. Ask him, To what do you owe your salvation? and "the finished work of Christ" is the sum of his reply. Tell him that each of those answers is seriously defective, and he strongly resents your aspersion." Arthur Walkington Pink was an English Christian evangelist and Biblical scholar known for his staunchly Calvinist and Puritan-like teachings. Though born to Christian parents, prior to conversion he migrated into a Theosophical society (an occult gnostic group popular in England during that time), and quickly rose in prominence within their ranks. His conversion came from his father's patient admonitions from Scripture. It was the verse, Proverbs 14:12, 'there is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death, ' which particularly struck his heart and compelled him to renounce Theosophy and follow Jesus.
