SEVEN REALLY BIG THINGS THAT WILL MAKE YOU ASTOUNDING!! So, we should leave the basic things we learned about Christ and go on to more mature things. We should not lay again the foundation of turning away from depending on dead human efforts, of believing in God, teaching about immersions, putting hands on people, rising from death, and eternal judgment (Hebrews 6:1-2 PEB). Seven Big Things That Make Life Work focuses on the basic foundational truths of the Christian life in an exciting new way biblical without being religious and scholarly without being dry. Pastor and author Phil Pringle combines a scholarly, biblical approach with a thoroughly Spirit-filled theology. Each principle presented provides insights for developing and maintaining a strong foundation in Christ. At a time when so many leaders in both society and the Church have been exposed by scandal and corruption, both new believers and long-term believers will benefit from examining the real things that make life work successfully. The seven things that will change your life for the better: * Repentance * Faith Toward God * Baptisms * Spiritual Gifts * Laying on of Hands * Resurrection of the Dead * Eternal Judgment The truths revealed make Seven Big Things That Make Life Work a valuable resource for new believers, Sunday school teachers, discipleship and mentoring programs, and Bible study groups.
