Book Synopsis Twelve Ordinary Men by : John F. MacArthur
Download or read book Twelve Ordinary Men written by John F. MacArthur and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2006-05-08 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You don't have to be perfect to do God's work. Look no further than the twelve disciples, whose many weaknesses are forever preserved throughout the pages of the New Testament. Join bestselling author John MacArthur in Twelve Ordinary Men as he draws principles from Christ's careful, hands-on training of the original disciples for today's modern disciple, you! Jesus chose ordinary men--fishermen, tax collectors, political zealots--and turned their weakness into strength, producing greatness from people who were otherwise unremarkable. The twelve disciples weren't the stained-glass saints we imagine. On the contrary, they were truly human, all too prone to mistakes, misstatements, wrong attitudes, lapses of faith, and bitter failure. Simply put, they were flawed people, just like us. But under Jesus' teaching and touch, they became a force that forever changed the world. MacArthur takes you into the inner circle of the disciples--their selection, their training, their personalities, and their incredible impact. As MacArthur took a closer look at the lives of the twelve disciples, he found himself asking difficult questions along the way, including: Why did Jesus pick each of the twelve disciples? How did Jesus teach them everything he could in just eighteen short months? Can the lessons that Jesus taught the disciples can still influence our faith today? In Twelve Ordinary Men, you'll learn that disciples are living proof that God's strength is made perfect in weakness. As you get to know the men who walked with Jesus, you'll see that if he can accomplish his purposes through them, he can do the same through you.

Book Synopsis Paul and Peter by : Elvis Betancourt
Download or read book Paul and Peter written by Elvis Betancourt and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-12 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Lord Jesus Christ aside, the Apostle Paul is the most outstanding man in the New Testament. His name is found approximately one hundred times from the book of Acts to the second epistle of Peter. Paul was of extraordinary personality: bold but humble, loved but hated, and above all, wholly dedicated to the cause of Christ. It is evident that this greatness was due to the influence of the One whom Saul of Tarsus addressed on the road to Damascus: "Who are you, Lord?" It can be said that the motto of his whole life as a Christian is found in Galatians 2.20 I do not live, but Christ lives in me. Between the phrase in Acts 7.58, "a young man whose name was Saul," and that of Philemon verse 9, "Paul now old," there is a gap of perhaps thirty years. It was an unparalleled period of service for Christ, filled with suffering, adversity, and imprisonment. Few biographies offer more interesting reading than the inspired account of Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles, and there is no exaggeration in that account. Except for our Lord again, we learn more lessons from this man than from any other in both Testaments. Peter's story becomes closely associated with that of his Master. Participate in his humiliation, the heavy trips by day and the loneliness of the field at night. Sometimes they were hungry, taking no food for the road, a bag for money, or a second robe with them. All this was in contrast to the comfort of the home of a married man and the freedom of action of a fisherman. His epistles are replete with references to his experiences, or the phrases he heard in his formative years; they have been called the reminiscences of the apostle. For example: "gird up your loins", "living stone", "witness to the sufferings of Christ". https: //amzn.to/2Xdtq2m
Book Synopsis All the People in the Bible by : Richard R. Losch
Download or read book All the People in the Bible written by Richard R. Losch and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2008-05-13 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "More than any other book, the Bible offers an amazing collection of fascinating characters ranging from the holiest of the holy to some of the most depraved scoundrels imaginable. Many are mentioned only in passing, yet history and archaeology can often fill in the blanks and flesh them out as exciting human beings. For this reason we have in many cases been able to tell much more about them than the Bible alone reveals." -- Richard R. Losch (from the preface)A comprehensive gathering of persons found in the Bible, including the Apocrypha, All the People in the Bible really delivers on its title: literally all of the Bible's characters appear in this fascinating reference work. From the first article on Aaron to the final entry on Zophar, Richard Losch details each person in a lively narrative style.The bulk of the book consists of Losch's A-Z articles covering the familiar and the not-so-familiar figures in Scripture. Names of people who are found only in genealogies or who had no significant effect on history are included solely in the alphabetical listing starting on page 452. That listing, "All the People in the Bible and Apocrypha," includes pronunciations, brief identifications, and biblical references. Persons covered in greater detail in the main part of the book are identified in bold print.Losch's intriguing look at all the people in the Bible is anything but a dry reference work. This is a book to dip into and enjoy over and over.

Book Synopsis Biographies of Jesus' Apostles by : James Allen Moseley
Download or read book Biographies of Jesus' Apostles written by James Allen Moseley and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disciple means student. Apostle means ambassador. "I am an ambassador in chains," wrote Paul in Ephesians 6:20. In Christ, twelve scared, scattered Apostles turned the world's most powerful Empire upside down - and then changed the world forever. Who were these Apostles? Were they rich or poor? Educated or illiterate? Related to Jesus and to each other or random strangers? Did they live long and travel far and wide, or die young in their home towns? Did they die as martyrs or in peace? This book reveals the surprising answers - drawn straight from the ink on the pages of Scripture, where they have lain in plain sight for over nineteen centuries. Around 56 A.D., in 1 Corinthians 4:9-13, the Apostle Paul wrote: "For I think that God has exhibited us Apostles as last of all, like men sentenced to death, because we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels, and to men. We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are held in honor, but we in disrepute. To the present hour we hunger and thirst, we are poorly dressed and buffeted and homeless, and we labor, working with our own hands. When reviled, we bless; when persecuted, we endure; when slandered, we entreat. We have become, and are still, like the scum of the world, the refuse of all things."In 100 A.D., about when the Apostle John died, there were perhaps one million Christians in the world - only 0.3% of the world's estimated population. For the next two centuries, Christians would be a persecuted minority, with no worldly reward for their labors. Today, over two billion people profess Christianity - about 33% of the world's population. There are 110 times more people, in percentage terms, who profess Christ than did so at the close of the Apostolic Age. So, they did the amazing work Jesus gave them to do, these tireless, devoted ambassadors in chains.Jim Moseley has taught and written 17 books on Biblical theology since 2008, focusing on apologetics, science, history, archaeology, and comparative religions and doctrines. He is President of a non-profit organization (thebiblehistoryguy.com), whose mission is finding faith through facts. He is working on a Master's Degree in Divinity at Liberty University.

Book Synopsis Legends of the Bible by : Charles River Charles River Editors
Download or read book Legends of the Bible written by Charles River Charles River Editors and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-30 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Includes pictures of historic art depicting Paul and important events in his life. *Includes a bibliography for further reading. "Paul's letters reveal a remarkable human being: dedicated, compassionate, emotional, sometimes harsh and angry, clever and quick-witted, supple in argumentation, and above all possessing a soaring, passionate commitment to God, Jesus Christ, and his own mission. Fortunately, after his death one of his followers collected some of the letters, edited them very slightly, and published them. They constitute one of history's most remarkable personal contributions to religious thought and practice." - E.P. Sanders Aside from Jesus himself, one of the most important and best known individuals of the New Testament is Paul the Apostle, formerly Saul of Tarsus. A "Hebrew born of Hebrews", Paul's conversion to Christianity was unquestionably one of the seminal events in the history of the religion, because it would be Paul who spread Christianity across much of the Mediterranean. In the process, over half of the history recorded in the Acts of the Apostles covers the life of Paul, and over half of the letters of the New Testament were written by him. Many churches and cathedrals in the western world have been named after him, and on any given Sunday in any number of churches around the world, his writings and the events of his life form the basis of sermons, devotional literature, books, Bible studies, music, movies and prayers. At the same time, even as Paul's life and works are better documented than just about any other figure in the New Testament, a lot about him remains mysterious. In addition to what was written in Scripture, other sources have helped to fill in the gaps, particularly a tradition that holds Paul was martyred in Rome during the reign of Nero. Despite the primary source material that comes from the books of the New Testament, primarily Acts and Paul's own writings, no autobiography of Paul exists, and the Bible did not record the details of his life. Legends of the Bible: St. Paul the Apostle chronicles the history, mysteries, and Scripture passages about Christianity's most famous messenger, examining the Bible and historical record to piece together an understanding of the known and unknown about him. Along with pictures and a bibliography, you will learn about Paul like you never have before, in no time at all.
