The True Jesus Christ


Book Description

Through the centuries, thousands of books, stories, novels, television programs, and films about Jesus Christ have been written and produced. Hundreds of thousands of churches have been erected in His name. Millions have claimed to be His ministers. Billions have professed Him as "Lord and Savior." Today, Jesus is renowned the world over, commonly known in one way or another in every culture of the world, whether one professes to be Christian, atheist, or of any other religion. Many have positive comments about Him, regardless of their beliefs about who He was and what He taught. His name also stirs great controversy and debate. Yet, despite worldwide recognition-despite billions professing to be His followers-despite all the knowledge circulating about Him-Jesus Christ remains unknown-even to Christianity! Unlike anything ever produced, "The True Jesus Christ - Unknown to Christianity "accurately examines the life, ministry, and teachings of the most influential Person in the history of the world. Excluding popular tradition, theory, and opinion-the usual approach to His life-it takes you on an extraordinary and gripping journey through the corridors of the life and times of Jesus Christ, and correctly answers in plain language the greatest questions about Him-straight from the Bible and history. You will learn what only a tiny few have understood.




A Peculiar Glory


Book Description

God has provided a way for all people, not just scholars, to know that the Bible is the Word of God. John Piper has devoted his life to showing us that the glory of God is object of the soul’s happiness. Now, his burden in this book is to demonstrate that this same glory is the ground of the mind’s certainty. God’s peculiar glory shines through his Word. The Spirit of God enlightens the eyes of our hearts. And in one self-authenticating sight, our minds are sure and our hearts are satisfied. Justified certainty and solid joy meet in the peculiar glory of God.

The Faith of Jesus Christ


Book Description

In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought. Through an in-depth investigation of Galatians 3:1-4:11, Hays shows that the framework of Paul's thought is neither a system of doctrines nor his personal religious experience but the "sacred story" of Jesus Christ.




Knowing Christ Today


Book Description

At a time when popular atheism books are talking about the irrationality of believing in God, Willard makes a rigorous intellectual case for why it makes sense to believe in God and in Jesus, the Son.




Understanding Jesus


Book Description

Modern-day Christians often bring their own presuppositions and assumptions to the reading of the Bible, not realizing how deeply their understanding of Christ's life and teachings is affected by a 21st-century worldview. In Understanding Jesus, author Joe Amaral delves deep into Jewish history, societal mores, and cultural traditions, closing the gap created by geographical distance and over two thousand years of history. Using a chronological approach to the life of Christ, he guides the reader through significant events such as Jesus' birth, baptism, and crucifixion, pointing out illuminating details that that the Western mind would normally miss. Amaral's premise is that to understand Jesus, we must understand the time and place in which he was born, the background from which he drew his illustrations, and the audience he spoke to. Throughout the book he explores specific terms, places, and events for their significance and shows how they add richness and meaning to the text. Topics include the connection between Jesus and John the Baptist, the annual Feasts and why they are important to modern Christianity, Jewish customs such as foot-washing, clean and unclean foods, paying tribute to political governments, and the significance of various miracles. In Understanding Jesus, Amaral draws back the curtain on a way of life that existed during the reign of the Caesars, and in doing so, reveals truths about the way we live more than two thousand years later, half a world away.




Knowledge and Truth

The new era: it is the era of spiritual evolution. Humanity will receive a spiritual level of attainment that will allow us to better evolve. The hour of the Lord is coming, and no one can stop it. The Son of God is coming to enlighten humanity. The Son of God is Gods source, and the world is coming to drink from Him. He is the Son of love, and he spreads love and mercy throughout the world. He has in Him the Father and Christ, the first Son of God, and the three make one. The Father sends Him from the north to the south, from the east to the west, to enlighten the world. Even the spirits in the lowest depths receive this light, for such is the will of God. Words of the Lord: I will give the greatest teachings, the most simple teachings that I have ever given, I will punish those who cause others to be lost and I will be very severe with them. I come to reestablish order so that humanity finds the path of return easily. I will permit to those who hold to my will and who put my teachings into practice, to better understand themselves and to better understand me, the life who gives life to all things. My light will go into those who I love, those who deserve it, and those who desire it. I am a God of great kindness and my kindness is not free and I will manifest it within reason.

True Purpose in Jesus Christ


Book Description

DOES YOUR LIFE HAVE PURPOSE?Mine didn't. Although I had the American Dream pretty much all wrapped up by the time I was 30, my life was still completely pointless, meaningless, and empty. Before you open this book, you need to know that this is not a prosperity book, it's not a self-help book, and it's definitely not a religious book.

And that purpose, is Jesus.Through my personal life story, I'll share with you very intimate details about how to find your real reason for walking this planet, which is ultimately found in a close relationship with Jesus Christ. Sound weird? It's really not. I'll show you.Through practical tools and heart-felt advice, I'll teach you that God is not interested in how "religious" you behave, or don't behave. Instead, He is interested in the shape of your heart, and just how much love and respect you have for Jesus.In these pages, I get into some pretty nasty stuff about my former life. Even as a "good man," I was still full of pride, selfishness, greed, addiction, frustration, and fear - ALL OF THAT GARBAGE - Christ wanted gone! He personally taught me how to get rid of it and I want to show you the same! How did He teach me this? Simple. By me, getting to know Him, personally, for myself. Once you truly get to know Jesus, it is absolutely impossible to NOT love Him.So no matter where you are at in life, I want you to know there IS hope! There IS a victorious, powerful, STRONG way of living, and it's found IN Jesus! I'm going to teach you that any temptation, distraction, discouragement, or tragedy can be used by God for GOOD! And, FOR YOUR PURPOSE! If you let Him, if you will come to know Jesus, personally...Thank you so much for joining me. Let's begin! -Matt McMillen
