Book Description
It's a matter of life and death. Once we have established the Bible as the Word of God, we then develop the fundamentals that explain the central theme of the Word of God, that is, man's complete ruin in sin and God's remedy in his Son, Jesus Christ. The ultimate penalty of our sins is eternal separation from God. Since the fall of Adam, death has reigned, and millions have gone to their grave separated from God and destined to an eternity without hope, separated from God in a place called hell, reserved for Satan and all the fallen angels, the final abode of all that is evil and those who had denied Jesus Christ as Savior. Our existence is not subject to the temporal physical, but our existence is rooted in an eternal destination that is determined by our personal choice while we journey in the physical. Jesus said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word and believe on Him that sent me, hath everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life" (John 5:24). I pray this work will help us throw away the excuses that hold us back from witnessing to the dead. Charles Allen Logan, BRE Bachelor of Religious Education Tri-State Bible College South Point, Ohio

Book Description
We know Jesus the Savior, but have we met Jesus, Prince of Peace? When did we accept vengeance as an acceptable part of the Christian life? How did violence and power seep into our understanding of faith and grace? For those troubled by this trend toward the sword, perhaps there is a better way. What if the message of Jesus differs radically differs from the drumbeats of war we hear all around us? Using his own journey from war crier to peacemaker and his in-depth study of peace in the scriptures, author and pastor Brian Zahnd reintroduces us to the gospel of Peace.

Book Description
Witnessing is not soul-winning. Soul-winning consists of a single task-bring a prospect face to face with Christ and press him to receive the Lord as his Savior. There's no half-way business about it. You either get a person to make a decision or you don't. If you fail to make the presentation or are interrupted for some reason, you simply do not win that soul for Christ. If there is no decision, there is no soul-winning. Witnessing, on the other hand, is a work that can be performed in countless ways. The moment a person does anything to share the word of Christ, he is a 100% successful. Witnessing ranges all the way from hiding a gospel tract in a public place to telling another person what Jesus means to you. Therefore, soul-winning and witnessing are NOT the same. While everyone can witness for Jesus, not everyone can win souls--at least not at first. For decades I have been training soul-winners and witnesses. It has been my experience that the average Christian doesn't know the difference between the two skills. Most think they are synonymous. That causes them to shy away from any kind of training. Believing there is no way to witness short of winning a soul to Christ, they are reluctant to start. A multitude of God's people is content to remain silent, thinking only of those prepared to win souls are qualified to speak for Christ. I estimate that 80% of all believers have this notion. Satan is using it to keep them out of action. I don't blame them for being frightened. Soul-winning is a terrifying business-until you are equipped with the skill, and more importantly, have the strength to use it. It's a welcome relief, therefore, to learn that there are two specialties-one which is quite difficult and the other very easy. I believe that all Christians could become soul-winners-if they would first work with the Holy Spirit as witnesses. There is nothing more torturous than forcing yourself to be a soul-winner when you don't have the personality strength for that kind of approach. The thing to do is to develop your strength as a witness, and then you can tackle the task of soul-winning with confidence and enthusiasm. I am suggesting, that unless you have a vigorous personality strength which allows you to start right off as a soul-winner, you should forget about it-temporarily. The Lord is aware of this variable in His people. He knows some are endowed with public gifts, while others are shy and timid. That's why He gave the command to witness, "You shall be My witnesses" (Acts 1:8). Everyone can witness, even though not all go on to win souls. Why? There are ways to witness that match the shyness of the timidest soul. Everyone can begin with the easiest steps, and then, with the passing of time, graduate to harder ones. It is cruel to expect people to perform spiritual tasks that are not consistent with their social strengths. There are those who accept the challenge of their pastor or some evangelist to try and be soul-winners. A sense of duty drives them. For a time they go through the nightmare of attempting something beyond their ability, but it doesn't last. Before long, they recoil from it. And that's bad. Usually, it instills a fear from which they are not easily recovered. In this book, you will learn that witnessing does not mean soul-winning; that the spirit's power follows your words, and tells us exactly what to say and do. There are ten steps (rungs) in our witnessing course. Each offers a bit more ego threat than the preceding one. We begin the course with secret actions, gradually moving closer and closer to people in bite-sized steps that are fun. As soon as a person absorbs all the threats at one level, he advances to the next higher level. Are you ready to go up the ladder?

Book Description
Walter Kaiser questions the notion that the New Testament represents a deviation from God's supposed intention to save only the Israelites. He argues that--contrary to popular opinion--the older Testament does not reinforce an exclusive redemptive plan. Instead, it emphasizes a common human condition and God's original and continuing concern for all humanity. Kaiser shows that the Israelites' mission was always to actively spread to gentiles the Good News of the promised Messiah. This new edition adds two new chapters, freshens material throughout, expands the bibliography, and includes study questions.

Jesus’ death on the cross and resurrection from the grave are the cornerstone of our Christian faith. But it’s important to remember the events leading up to that time—the ones in which Christ taught His disciples important lessons that should still be imprinted on our hearts today. Bill Crowder walks you through those key moments of the Last Supper, the garden of Gethsemane, and the trial before Pilate, as well as Christ’s death and resurrection, to give you a complete picture of the Savior.

Book Description
Life and death. Witnessing for Christ. We are all called to love. Eternal issues are what's relevant. And as we grow as Christians, we are all to think more and more from a divine perspective. So many in the world are lost and are ushered into hell and torment every day. However, we could help prevent this. A kind word. A lifetime example of Christ. Love others. Some social conformity, please and thank you at a Seven Eleven, and we all dress the same and shop at the same stores. Sometimes this kind of unity and conformity blinds us to how we all need God. And some are lost. The trappings. The glitz. Pleasure. Celebrities. The world system. Like taking a ticket at a deli mart. Stand in line. People don't hear the small cry of a soul sucked into a world system of high technology, and it is too late to say something or bring them back. The heartache of the survivors lives on with eternal questions. There is only one truth and one way to heaven. By becoming born-again. This book is about witnessing, its vital importance. Most of the stories are based on the author's true accounts. Examples of different types of witnessing, problems encountered, different personalities. People are all in different places spiritually on their earthly pilgrimage. This book is a very helpful tool, equipping us to witness on higher levels and with greater expectations. And should we fall short, God can use any and every witness, no matter how small. For we are not responsible for bearing the fruit. We are only called to witness for Christ. But most of all we are called to love.
