"In Stand Firm, John MacArthur resounds the Christian's call to holiness. He does this by outlining some of the dimensions of the Christian life, especially as it relates to living in a post-Christian era. First, he addresses the importance of having and maintaining a Christian conscience. Second, he talks about the importance of the Christian to not only his neighbor but also to love his enemy, and this is largely done through a focus on the teaching of Deuteronomy and on the teaching of Jesus Christ in Matthew 5. Third, he further elaborates on the nature of the Christian love and the fact that it often mean loving in a sacrificial way that can require suffering. Fourth, he asserts the necessity of prayer in the Christian life and also elaborates on the true substance of Christian prayer. Fifth, he corrects any false notion that Christian faith is meant to garner influence in culture. He calls this the "myth of influence." Finally, he drives home the importance of persevering to the end of this life as a distinguishing mark of the Christian life, underscoring the title of the book, Stand Firm"--

When I first came to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ I did not know where to start in the word of God; so, I began seeking the Lord for direction on what to study and how to study. Some of the things He showed me were salvation, redemption, faith, covenant, Holy Spirit and Jesus the Christ. After years of studying the Word of God and applying its life changing principles to the circumstances that came to me in life, I have learned what it means to walk by faith and not by sight. Now today I know that the Word of God is true and that it works. The Word of God has the ability to change life situations by living, acting, doing the Word. No matter where you are in life the Word of the Lord can change your circumstances. I pray that by reading this book, it will serve as a guide to lead you on a journey to success and prosperity in the things of God. This is just to get you exposed to some of the basic teachings of Christianity, I believe you will receive direction in your walk with the Lord. I encourage you to study faith, Jesus, redemption, salvation, covenant, and Holy Spirit. Take each chapter and study diligently. Look up the scripture given at the bottom of the page and apply what you read to your life. By doing the Word, you will be building on a firm foundation for success in every area of life.

Imagine what our world might look like if Christians became known for remarkable love, as well as life-giving truth. The stakes are high and the need is great for Christians to represent Jesus to a watching world. And today, we have more influence than ever before--for better and for worse. We are among the first generations to have access to a global megaphone through social media. But it's not enough to speak truth louder to a noisy culture. To counter the reputation Christians have earned, our love must be just as loud. Ask evangelist Matt Brown, and he will tell you Christians today are facing a crisis of influence. In our rush to speak truth to today's tensions, cultural issues, and trending controversies, it becomes all too easy to focus on proving our points rather than extending God's grace. Conversely, when we seek only to love yet never proclaim a better way, we short-circuit God's plan. Truth Plus Love invites you to rediscover the biblical framework for engaging culture as ambassadors of Christ. Through biblical insight, cultural analysis, and practical principles, Matt Brown outlines how to champion truth without compromise, how to love unconditionally, and ultimately, how to step into this great adventure of representing God to the world. It's hard, it's messy, and it's the unfinished project of a lifetime, yet here we find our great adventure: representing God to a watching world.
