This is the most important decision a person will ever make. Eternal destiny is on the line and at stake. The idea bears repeating. God takes the time in Scripture to repeat Himself numerous times. This is the good news of Jesus Christ. This is of the utmost importance as stated by the Apostle Paul. This is the priority. As believers in Jesus Christ, we should draw a line in the sand and stick a flag in the ground over this issue. If a person does not get the issue of the gospel of Jesus Christ right, big time eternal problems. Jesus Christ died. He was buried. And He was raised. This is ...

The Bible teaches that there are seven separate judgments. This book was written about the first one, which was the judgment of Satan and sin by the cross of Jesus. It starts with Satan sinning in heaven and being cast to the earth. It carefully analyzes the Garden of Eden environment and the whole theology around what happened when Adam ate fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. It considers several logistical questions concerning his sin, the consequences of his sin, and the resulting physical and spiritual separations from God. Once those topics have been addressed, some ...

“WE NEED FAITH” Why do I need faith? How can I get faith after doubt? Sometimes, when things don’t go according to plan, we lose faith, not only in ourselves but also in any potential outcome in our lives. We may even start thinking, “Do I stay a Christian when my faith is failing?” Failure will do that to you. When we experience life’s monumental failures, it’s easy to lose hope and faith. You can get to the place where you don’t believe everything you think, do, or say. Wholehearted Faith is deep-rooted in the expectation of good things to come. It goes beyond hope. Hope ...

This book explores salvation in many of its facets. It considers the theoretical concepts of free will and sovereignty and shows how they apply to our everyday life. If man is free, how is God sovereign? How can these two concepts coexist, and how do they fit into God’s plan of salvation? These topics are covered in a style that is aimed at the everyday Christian with practical examples.

The term “Ordo Salutis” is a Latin phrase meaning “the order of salvation.” The Ordo Salutis is a theological construct of what is believed to be a logical sequence of events in God’s work of saving a sinner and bringing that saved sinner to heaven. The Ordo Salutis as generally conceived begins with God’s choices concerning salvation. The Ordo Salutis I propose begins with God’s decision to create the universe and why he decided to create: to manifest his glory. That beginning affects the way the entire Ordo Salutis is viewed. The focus of this book is more than words, it is ...

God is infinitely excellent, and that excellence is most profoundly displayed in the person and saving work of Jesus Christ. The heart of Edwards’ theology radiates the glory of God as displayed in Christ saving unworthy sinners through perfect obedience to God’s unchanging rule of righteousness. The whole of Edwards’ theology stands on the beauty and redemptive work of Christ as revealing and communicating the marvelous perfections of the Trinity. Salvation of a single soul apart from perfect conformity to God’s rule of righteousness would render God unrighteous and abolish His ...

A definitive look at biblical salvation. The ways of God are infinitely wise, yet man willingly confuses and makes ambiguous plain teachings of scripture to suit his own destructive predilections. This is nowhere more evident than in the doctrine of salvation. In this book, God's ways are proven to align with common sense. The subject is explained simply, understandably, and sensibly through elucidation of God's word.

At the heart of this exultant proclamation is the understanding that the name of Jesus is a banner of victory over the forces that seek to oppress and diminish. It is a shout of defiance against the shadows of despair, a resounding declaration that darkness must yield to the unwavering light of Christ. In the name of Jesus, the defeated find the anthem of their liberation, and the broken discover the melody of their restoration. This shout of joy is a celebration of the transformative power encapsulated in the name of Jesus. It echoes through testimonies of lives touched by miraculous ...

This book speaks about how we will be saved by God to the ends of the Earth. It shows us boundless faith, a voice of salvation for all our loved ones. This book talks about faith, a living faith that knows no limits, free from prejudices and not constrained by theological traditions; a faith that must flow in all its forms and directions and that can be perceived not only by our intellect but also by all our senses; a faith that liberates all those whom we desire, as long as we dare to believe in Jesus in everything he teaches us in the Gospels. A faith that is not limited by life or death....

A growing number of Christians are noticing that spiritual sluggishness is spreading among Christians. Perhaps you have observed this and have begun to pray for revival. Many factors are likely contributing to the spiritual sluggishness. This book explores one of them. We know that unless the Holy Spirit moves upon God’s people, revival is not going to happen. But the Holy Spirit uses the truth of the Gospel in the process of reviving people. This book asserts that during the past two or three hundred years, the Church has gradually embraced a gospel that is truncated to some degree. It ...

In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus Christ said, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” What might that have meant to His first audience on that day? They certainly had a different definition of what it meant to be poor, compared to ourselves. Once we understand what they would have thought about financial poverty, we'll be in a good place to think about its parallel: spiritual poverty. This encouraging message of Gospel invitation will be a help to your own spirit.

With clarity, understanding, and insight, Coulter presents the subject of holiness from a perspective that motivates rather than intimidates the reader. An understanding of holiness is essential to our relationship with God and foundational to our call as Christians to make disciples. Throughout the book, he helps the reader grasp the multiple aspects of the truth concerning holiness. To rekindle a passion for holiness, we must engage in the, sometimes strenuous, task of doing good theology. Coulter does the hard work of developing a sound theology of holiness to help Christians cultivate ...

Is it possible to know whether you are saved? I mean, really, for sure? This is a booklet on the topic of assurance of salvation, or, in other words, the certainty of the individual Christian believer that he or she is eternally saved. A practical and pastoral guide to the biblical doctrine of Assurance of Salvation for Christians with citations from Holy Scripture by Rev. Riley Fraas, the Pastor of Hope Congregational Church in Bethune, Colorado.

This letter to the local churches in Galatia is probably Paul's second letter to some of the churches that he had established. His first letter was to the church at Thessalonica. To the Thessalonians, he was much more pleasant because he had just gotten a positive report from Timothy about their good spiritual progress. But in this letter to the Galatians, he was very much less positive because he had been told that they had returned to the Law of Moses and were telling the Gentile Christians that they had to be circumcised. So in dealing with the key issues of true biblical salvation, Paul...

What’s the most intriguing subject to most people in the world, Christian and non-Christian? It’s to “Examine The End Times”, Eschatology, Going back to the future! Why are so many fascinated by what is to come? Possibly it’s our human nature of curiosity, as we want to know, NO, we MUST know! We want to discern our own End Time in Heaven or Hell and our Earth’s End Time. Regrettably, most have been greatly deceived by devilish liars, false teachers, and countless fanatical charlatans. The Book of Revelation is the least-read book in the Bible. It is also the most misunderstood ...

John 17:20 “Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;” In the powerful statement above, we read about Jesus putting His seal of approval on the apostles whom He entrusted to carry on His message after He ascended into heaven. Jesus was able to do this because of His foreknowledge of their future. If they would have strayed from His original intent for them to preach His unadulterated Word, He would have foreknown it, and accordingly would not have directed us to believe on Him through their word. Knowing this important truth, we can ...

To possess “the light of life,” one must put faith in Jesus Christ and become his follower. On social media every day, millions of Christians are saying such things as “I am a Calvinist,” “I am an Arminian.” “I am a Lutheran,” “I am a Wesleyan,” and so on. They then debate and argue theology as though it is a blood sport. This author is not an Arminian, Calvinist, Wesleyan, Lutheran, Baptist, follower, disciple, or learner of any other denomination; Andrews is non-denominational.
