Book Description
Jesus was God in the flesh. He was just as human as you and I. Hebrews 4:15-16 states “For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet He did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” One who was not fully human could never truly be an example for those of us who were bound to our human nature. God, understanding just how disconnected from Heaven that humanity had become, sent someone that we could see and relate to in order to reconnect again. Jesus came to show us how we, as humans, created in His image could overcome our weakness and walk in victory and authority. Italics mine Christianity is simply a one on one relationship between you and Jesus who gave His life to free you from the bondage of this world, (man’s world). Jesus opened the way for you to enjoy an eternity filled with peace and happiness that surpasses our understanding. Enjoy the journey, beginning now. This book only touches on the few of the subjects that we all deal with in our lives. How you handle them is a choice only you can make.

Page : 260 pages
File Size : 25,9 MB

Category : Religion
ISBN : 0061920622
Book Description
Why is justice fair? Why are so many people pursuing spirituality? Why do we crave relationship? And why is beauty so beautiful? N. T. Wright argues that each of these questions takes us into the mystery of who God is and what he wants from us. For two thousand years Christianity has claimed to answer these mysteries, and this renowned biblical scholar and Anglican bishop shows that it still does today. Like C. S. Lewis did in his classic Mere Christianity, Wright makes the case for Christian faith from the ground up, assuming that the reader is starting from ground zero with no predisposition to and perhaps even some negativity toward religion in general and Christianity in particular. His goal is to describe Christianity in as simple and accessible, yet hopefully attractive and exciting, a way as possible, both to say to outsides ÔYou might want to look at this further,Ö and to say to insiders ÔYou may not have quite understood this bit clearly yet.Ö

Book Description
Everyday Christians need practical and accessible theology. In this handbook first published in 1890, Charles Octavius Boothe simply and beautifully lays out the basics of theology for common people. "Before the charge 'know thyself,'" Boothe wrote, "ought to come the far greater charge, 'know thy God.'" He brought the heights of academic theology down to everyday language, and he helps us do the same today. Plain Theology for Plain People shows that evangelicalism needs the wisdom and experience of African American Christians. Walter R. Strickland II reintroduces this forgotten masterpiece for today. Lexham Classics are beautifully typeset new editions of classic works. Each book has been carefully transcribed from the original texts, ensuring an accurate representation of the writing as the author intended it to be read.
