About this listen
In all, I was out of work for almost five months from the end of November in 1989 until the middle of the following April. As I faced each day, I had a very sincere desire to understand what the Lord wanted me to do and also to determine if He was trying to show or teach me something special. I did not realize it at the time, but He was about to reveal to me what He truly desires from each of us. For a number of years, I had not been completely clear about whether He simply wanted us to be very good people, whether He just wanted our money, or just exactly what He wanted. I must point out, though, that my confusion was not related to my faith in Christ or to my dependence upon His finished work at Calvary. Instead, it was related to how a devoted Christian should go about this thing of Christian living.
What the Lord revealed to me through my ordeal of unemployment may not seem so earth shattering to many. In fact, I would have to say that His special revelation was probably what we would all suspect anyway. But many Christian people, in my opinion, have gotten this thing of Christian living all turned around. God does want us to work on His behalf. But He does not want that until first we have given Him our heart, our whole heart. Lukewarm Christianity, which is so commonplace in our time, is not honoring or pleasing to Him. However, merely working hard, without first giving Him the complete love and devotion that He wants and deserves, is not either.
This book is not very complicated and hopefully should not be difficult to read. In writing it, my desire has not been to eliminate the cart, but rather to ensure that we as Christians are not getting the cart before the horse. Chapters two and three present God's simple plan of salvation. After that, the rest of the book is a presentation of the simple teachings of Matthews 22:37-39, Matthew 6:33, and Romans 14:10-13. My desire is that the reader will find this material easy to understand and accept and that it will be beneficial to him or her in their everyday walk.
So now in closing, there is one final note to be made with respect to the organization of this text before concluding this Introduction. Something that the reader might find helpful are boxes throughout the text that show the different passages that are being referenced at the times and in the locations where they are being referenced. That way, he or she will not have to jump all over the place or get into or out of the scriptures to locate a particular reference. Hopefully that inclusion will help the reader in trying to understand the various events and to also quickly put them into their right context. So it is hoped that that addition will make this text easier to read and that the Lord will receive the praise, honor, and glory that He rightfully deserves.
