Christian Life in Satan's World


Book Description

We all make decisions every day. We choose what we wear to work and what to make for dinner, along with thousands of other minor choices each day. Most decisions donaEUR(tm)t even register in our minds as we live our lives. Decisions can be small, but other decisions will change the course of our life. Each day we decide to accept or reject the love of God. We choose to sin. We choose to avoid sin. Our choices directly affect our children and families, friends, coworkers, and neighbors. Being a Christian is a choice. We can choose to accept the blessings from our creator or we can ignore them and blindly accept what this world offers us. Our government is removing God from our society. Our schools teach our children God is a fairytale. The literal truth of the Bible is being attacked by modern-day science in an effort to destroy the greatest love story ever told. As God is being systematically removed from our communities, our country is falling apart in every way. If you are not yet a Christian, this book can help you logically and scientifically realize there is no possibility of our existence without a loving God. If you are already a Christian, you will be challenged on the depth of your faith in an effort to help you trust every word in the Bible is true and accurate. Be ready for controversial issues to be addressed with biblical principles and for the discovery of how deep your faith can take you in realizing GodaEUR(tm)s amazing and perfect love for us.

Core Christianity


Book Description

What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

Why Does God Allow Evil?


Book Description

"If you are looking for one book to make sense of the problem of evil, this book is for you." Sean McDowell Grasping This Truth Will Change Your View of God Forever If God is good and all-powerful, why doesn't He put a stop to the evil in this world? Christians and non-Christians alike struggle with the concept of a loving God who allows widespread suffering in this life and never-ending punishment in hell. We wrestle with questions such as... Why do bad things happen to good people? Why should we have to pay for Adam's sin? How can eternal judgment be fair? But what if the real problem doesn't start with God...but with us? Clay Jones, an associate professor of Christian apologetics at Biola University, examines what Scripture truly says about the nature of evil and why God allows it. Along the way, he'll help you discover the contrasting abundance of God's grace, the overwhelming joy of heaven, and the extraordinary destiny of believers.
