Jonathan Edwards on Heaven and Hell - Book

Fri, 18 May 2012 02:46:50 -0500

The question of the afterlife is, for many today, one of preference. Christians trained to evangelize unsaved people with the query, "If you were to die today, do you know where you would go--heaven or hell'" have grown befuddled when met with the response, "I don't believe in heaven or hell." Something in our culture has changed. The ground has shifted beneath our feet. We did not feel it. But change has come, just the same.We must reacquaint modern Christians with the eschatologically driven preaching and teaching of Edwards. This word "eschatological" may trip some readers up at first encounter, but it refers simply to "last things", things of eternity and ultimate significance. We exhume Edwards' scripturally fired material on the reality of the afterlife, the terror of hell, the glories of heaven, and the shape life must take in light of these realities.If we accept the Word as our authority, and if we will allow Edwards to serve as our faithful and imaginative guide, we will find that God is alive. He is Lord of heaven and earth, the sovereign ruler of all Creation. He is not small. He can be found. He is not silent on the afterlife, and His testimony calls for our attention, our concern, and our whole-hearted worship and trust.Easily accessible and readable, you do not need to be a scholar to enjoy these insights about Jonathan Edwards and his writings.

This excerpt says is all, "Nothing you have ever done has taken God by surprise. Nothing that has happened to you has caught him unaware. Nothing you do and nothing that happens to you can stop God from fulfilling his plan or even slow him down...God knows exactly what he is doing. You can have confidence in knowing that the events of your life are not spinning our of control or settled by random chance but that they are in the hands of God, who plans for you in love. Christians find joy in knowing that God's plan will lead to the greatest possible display of his glory and the greatest possible joy for his people." 32 pages

Inside Story of Human Life - CD

Fri, 18 May 2012 02:46:50 -0500

Once you admit there's evil, and that it's in human beings, you have to ask how it got there..... What is your explanation of evil? Many people will tell you that it is social, educational, or economic. But acts of great evil are committed by the rich as well as the poor. Evil is as prevalent under capitalism as it is under communism. And some of the most wicked acts in all human history have been conceived by some of the most brilliant minds. The Bible tells us "the inside story" of sin's origin, sin's development, sin's reach, sin's hidden consequence and God's stunning solution to the problem of human sin. 1.

Sharing the Passion of Jesus Christ - CD

Fri, 18 May 2012 02:46:50 -0500

Many Christians see the church through the eyes of the world. What if you could see the church through the eyes of Christ? In the eyes of the world, the church is weak, ineffective and out of touch. In the eyes of Christ, the church is uniquely precious, supremely valuable and intimately glorious. Have you ever been presented with a compelling biblical vision of the church? Jesus loves the church. When you see what He sees, it will change the way you look at the church. In this series, we'll look at three biblical pictures of the church that will help you share the passion of Jesus Christ for His church. 1. What is the Church & Why Does it Matter? Matthew 16:13-20; 18:15-20 2. The Body: Christ's Working Through the Church Ephesians 1:15-23 3. The Building: Christ's Presence in the Church Ephesians 2:19-22 4.

Anatomy of Faith - CD

Fri, 18 May 2012 02:46:51 -0500

Biblical faith is more than using your head. It involves your ears, your hands, your mouth, your voice, and your knees - all of you. Using the analogy of the human body, you'll discover not only what faith is, but what faith does. This very practical look at Christian faith is simple enough for a child to grasp, but challenging enough to stretch the most seasoned Christian.

Ambassadors - CD

Fri, 18 May 2012 02:46:51 -0500

Ambassadors have a tough assignment. They have to represent their government in an alien culture. Ambassadors have to win the trust of the people to whom they are sent.

We are Christ's ambassadors. The risen Christ sends us into this postmodern culture as His representatives. That calling is the highest privilege of our lives. This series of messages will be an encouragement for all who have a passion to make Christ known in cultures where His truth is not understood. 2 Corinthians 5:11-21 1. The Ambassador's Profile - What does it take to be an effective ambassador for Christ? 2. The Ambassador's Authority - How do we know what to say to our culture? 3.

10 Keys for Unlocking the Bible - BOOK

Fri, 18 May 2012 02:46:52 -0500

You are holding a small book that will give you the big picture of the Bible story. The Bible is the world’s best selling book, but it is long and sometimes difficult to understand. This book will give you a place to start. It’s rather like a high altitude flight over a range of mountains. You’ll see what the ground looks like, and get a good glimpse of the highest peaks. The whole Bible is one story. It begins in a garden, ends in a city and all the way through it points us to Jesus Christ The “Keys” will open up the story of the Garden where God introduces Himself, and tells us who we are. We’ll learn about the disaster in the garden and its effects on our lives today. Then we will follow the Old Testament story, discovering how right through human history God has been reaching out to men and women, making a way for us to know Him, and inviting us to come. The “Keys” will also open up the story of Jesus, exploring his birth, death and resurrection. We will discover who the Holy Spirit is, and see what God intends the church to be. Then we will take an honest look at the Christian life; the struggle that every Christian experiences, and the power that God makes available to us. Finally, we’ll take a glimpse at the highest peak of all, - the new creation that God has promised when Jesus Christ returns in glory. The “Ten Keys” are condensed from “Unlocking the Bible Story,” a series of four books that cover the story in greater detail. If you enjoy the high altitude fly-over, and want to get closer to the ground, “Unlocking the Bible Story” will give you a map and a compass. There’s so much more to discover. But for those who are new to the Bible, or want a quick overview of the Christian faith, this is the place to begin. Join me on the journey. You’re in for some breathtaking views.
