Is It Appointed Unto Man Once to Die?


Book Description

Is GOD trustworthy? Can we put confidence in Scripture to means what it says? Many people have tried to discredit the Bible because they say that it “contradicts itself.” Have you ever seen what appears to be a contradiction in Scripture? Even the preaching from the pulpit has cast doubt on the principles taught in the Bible.Take the subject of death for instance. The Bible clearly states that it is “appointed unto man once to die,” but then we are told about the stories of Enoch, Moses and Elijah. It is said that they did not die. Many preachers even go on to say that believers today may not experience death. Today, stories are told of those who have died and then returned to tell of what heaven is like. Those stories appear to contradict the basic teaching of death and create a hope for many that is not founded on Scripture. Ron McRay is an expert in making difficult passages easy to understand by uncovering gems of knowledge that have been hiding in plain sight all along. This is book #5 of fourteen where he brings forth Biblical truths that “Your Preacher Forgot To Tell You!” Uncover the gems about the subject of death and what it means for you in this simple, but profound Bible study book. It will give you confidence in knowing that the Bible really is dependable and trustworthy.

Relaxing with God


Book Description

Jesus called his followers to exchange the heavy yoke around their necks for his light one. So why are so many Christians feeling weighed down and burned out? The simple answer is that they are being told from many pulpits across the country what they "should be" doing for God. Bestselling author Andrew Farley calls this for what it is--works-based religion--and then shares with readers biblical wisdom on the neglected art of resting in Christ. Anyone longing to experience true release from the crushing expectations that the world throws their way will find life and rest in Farley's revolutionary message.




Seeing and savouring Jesus Christ


Book Description

Who is Jesus Christ? You've never met Him in person, and you don't know anyone who has. But there is a way to know who he is. How? Jesus Christ - the divine Person revealed in the Bible - has a unique excellence and a spiritual beauty that speaks directly to our souls and says, "Yes, this is truth." It's like seeing the sun and knowing that it is light, or tasting honey and knowing that it is sweet. The depth and complexity of Jesus shatter our simple mental frameworks. He baffled proud scribes with his wisdom but was understood and loved by children. He calmed a raging storm with a word but would not get himself down from the cross. Look at the Jesus of the Bible. Keep your eyes open, and fill them with the portrait of Jesus in God's Word. Jesus said, "If anyone's will is to do God's will, He will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own authority." Ask God for the grace to do His will, and you will see the truth of His Son. John Piper has written this book in the hope that all will see Jesus for who he really is and will come to enjoy him above all else.




The Death of Death in the Death of Christ
