Abide Faith, Hope, Love

Pages : 204
Book Description
"In life, we must aspire to abide in faith, hope and most importantly, love; all three things that are gifts from God. In regards to continuing in these three most precious gifts, means to embody the expressed heavenly character of those gifts." JESUS CHRIST tells us, "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you: abide in My love." The covenant the Lord made with His saints through the blood of Christ is one we are committed to by abiding faith, hope and love. The walk of all Christians is summed up in these three holy gifts. In a comparative tone, similar to the Proverbs, and exhortative as in the Epistles, this work shows not only the importance and connectivity of these three heavenly gifts, but also the folly involved when not abiding in them. Our focus on Jesus is maintained in the abiding: for these gifts are ones that keep on giving to those who abide them. God the Father wishes to make us whole persons through them in order to make us holy as He is holy. Through our commitment to Christ we can expect to: * Experience the freedom of His righteousness in our lives * Become more attuned to the presence of His Spirit at work in us * Live according to the fruits of the Holy Spirit that bring delight to God * Be at complete peace and utter contentment within every facet of our lives * Discern the depth, and width and height of His love, and be able to share it * Possess a faith alive in good works which grow the kingdom of heaven * Be transformed into a new person which emulates the character of God Through His grace, as our relationship with the Lord grows, so does our ability to abide increases. Because God is faithful to us, so does our faith grow when we abide. As the Lord's Word is true and His promises are sure, so our hope does grow congruently with that assuredness. And as unequivocally as the Lord loves us, our love for Him can know no boundaries, and be expressed with the liberty of grace when we abide.

Pages : 287
Book Description
"So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13:13 Faith, hope, and love—we hear a lot about each on their own, but how are they related? Why is this triad mentioned so often in the New Testament? Written in the form of fifty-eight questions and answers, this book reveals how these three theological virtues—also referred to as "three divine sisters"—together serve as the foundation for our whole Christian life. Deeply scriptural, steeped in key theological texts, and modeled after the classic catechisms of church history, this book will instruct our minds, stir our hearts, and motivate us to faith-filled obedience.

Abide
Author: Heather Khym
Publisher: Ave Maria Press
ISBN: 1646801180
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
In this personal healing retreat from Heather Khym, cohost of the popular Abiding Together podcast, you are invited to break through the barriers that prevent you from trusting and experiencing the deep love of Jesus and be transformed by the freedom that comes when we vulnerably bring our entire selves to the foot of the Cross. Rooted in the teaching of Khym’s Vancouver-based ministry, Life Restoration, Abide shares scripture, essential Catholic teaching, and the author’s personal healing journey to reintroduce you to God as the Divine Healer, Restorer, and Miracle Worker. Khym offers you a compass to navigate your past as you dig into difficult memories that have disoriented your understanding of God and made you afraid to trust him. She challenges you to cast off your self-protective tendencies and to recognize your need for healing so you can be the person you were created to be. Jesus says, “Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit because apart from me you can do nothing” (John 15:4–5). We are meant to abide in Jesus, to unite ourselves to him. Yet over the course of our lives, we experience brokenness and loss, which lead us to doubt God’s presence. Khym challenges you to step outside your comfort zone so that you can authentically: recognize God as a loving father who desires your happiness; practice spiritual and emotional vulnerability with Jesus; invite the Divine Healer into your past and relationships; acknowledge that you have an enemy who battles for your heart; and overcome false beliefs about God and learn to trust Jesus as a compelling, captivating, and trustworthy lover of your soul. Each chapter includes practical reflection-based exercises that help you recall troublesome memories, identify the roots of your feelings, and meditate on excerpts from scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. You’ll come away with a renewed hope in the power of God to bring freedom to your fearful heart as you start to live a life restored in Christ, one that begins with and is sustained by an intimate relationship with Jesus.
