On Fire for God
Author: Oliver Gann
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1452030901
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
This book is unlike most. If you read this book and are outside of a Biblical faith in Christ, it will challenge and compel you to rethink what your thoughts may have been about life, God, Jesus, the Bible, heaven, hell, religion, etc. If you plan to read this book and are a true Biblical follower of Jesus Christ but have felt empty with your Christian experience, you will encounter some answers as to why. But it will be risky for you because you may get offended if you have held onto anything or anyone more dearly than Christ. If you read this book as someone who has passionately loved the Lord and have been deeply fulfilled by Him, this volume can reinforce and strengthen your faith. This book is about the church, that is, all people who have placed their faith in Christ alone for the forgiveness of sins. But it doesn't just simply discuss people who profess to be Christians. It discusses how there is a serious lack of revival and a growing surge of hypocrisy within the church. This has led to the world that's outside of Christ to be tuned out and turned off to anything that's done in the name of Christ. It has led to a lackadaisical, boring life for most Christians. There needs to be a change. There has to be a fire ignited in the church again. On Fire For God offers a fresh, Biblical perspective on how to get the fire back that once was. If you have an interest in having a passionate, loving fire for God, then turn the ignition, buckle your seat belt, step on the gas and get started.
