Book Description
Without the bad news of sin, death and hell, there can be no good news of Christ, salvation and eternal life. Mead’s work is a masterful exhortation first building from 1 Kings 8:37-39 of the dreadful reality of God’s judgment against sin, which leads to death, which in turn leads most people to hell. Mead was present in the great plague of London in 1665 which killed 100,000 people. Mead saw the plague as a direct example of God’s wrath against the city for its sin and wickedness. Mead’s work is not simply a discovery of sin, but a remedy for it. He demonstrates twelve sins that London was continually committing, many of which are the same sins we commit today. Mead shows what those sins are, and how to remedy them through the power of Christ’s converting Spirit of repentance. Christians often will speak of America’s need of repenting, and that God’s judgment is on America now, slowly tearing out the morality it once had, and pressing the country into a deeper sense of depravity and moral turpitude. But repentance and reformation start in the house of the Lord, just like judgment does. We don’t hear very many individual Christians saying, “America needs to repent of its sin, and this movement needs to begin with me…” Mead brings this very important point to light and causes the reader to take a spiritual inventory of his “sin list” to determine whether he is part of the cause of God’s judgment. Mead also shows what the Christian can do in circumstances like the Great Plague, and how they can be useful to the Kingdom of God.

Wounded by God's People
Author: Anne Graham Lotz
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0310337542
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Tucked into Abraham's biography is the story of Hagar, a young Egyptian slave with whom Abraham had a son named Ishmael. Hagar stood out because she was wounded--not physically, but in ways that were as emotionally and spiritually painful as any injury to a body would be. Some wounds were provoked by her own bad behavior, but others were inflicted by those who considered themselves God's people. Anne Graham Lotz too has been wounded by God's people. Some wounds have been deeper than others, some have come out of nowhere, and still others have been provoked by her own behavior, but all of the wounds have been deeply painful. They seemed to hurt even more when the wounders wrapped their behavior in a semblance of religion or piety. As Hagar's story unfolds, you will discover that wounded people often become wounders themselves. While Anne identifies with the wounded, the unpleasant reality is that she also identifies with the wounders, because she has been one, too. She knows from experience that wounding is a cycle that needs to be broken. And by God's grace, it can be. Many have had similar experiences. And perhaps you are among those who have been so deeply hurt that you have confused God's imperfect people with God. Maybe you have even run away from God as a result. Or perhaps you have been a wounder to the extent that you are living in a self-imposed exile, believing you are unworthy to be restored to a warm, loving relationship with God or with God's people. Whatever your hurts may be, Wounded by God's People helps you to begin a healing journey--one that enables you to reclaim the joy of God's presence and all the blessings God has for you. God loves the wounded. And the wounders.

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit

Pages : 183
Book Description
DISCOVER YOU! is a book that explores and describes in great details the concept of design and purpose from the point of man’s originality. It discourses the innate components of man and the imperativeness of its development and usage in line with the very purpose they were given. It does this by providing explanations to seven fundamental questions which every man or woman must articulate the answers to in order to have a great head start in life. It also offers profound understanding on the concept of purpose, going in-depth in insight into the understanding of the important components of purpose discovery which include the timelines of purpose, the difference between awareness and readiness, the relationships needed, the concept of waiting and much more. It ends with a review of the concept of the equation of greatness which crowns the understanding of the process of discovering yourself.
