Book Synopsis Grace Alone---Salvation as a Gift of God by : Carl R. Trueman
Download or read book Grace Alone---Salvation as a Gift of God written by Carl R. Trueman and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grace is the heart of the Christian gospel. It's a doctrine that touches the very depths of human existence and makes Christianity such an essential alternative to the dissolution and nihilism of modern culture. Grace Alone guides you into a better doctrinal understanding of the issue and gives you a more glorious vision of an active and saving God. The language of grace fills the Bible so much that to say "grace alone" may not evoke much reflection. Unlike "faith alone," there's no theological controversy among expressions of Christianity. Reviving one of the five great declarations of the Reformation (and one of the more overlooked)—sola Gratia—professor and church historian Carl Trueman: Provides a thorough definition of grace as it's found in the Bible and an overview of biblical references to, and teaching on, grace. Tracks the doctrine of grace as it's been articulated throughout church history, with discussions of Augustine, Pelagius, Thomas Aquinas, and ending with the Reformation and theologies of Luther and Calvin. Looks at the relationship between the means of grace and the modern church, defining the practical implications of the Reformation's understanding of grace. Explanations throughout on the relationship of grace to sin, salvation and glorification, God's sovereignty, the sacraments, and the controversies regarding freewill and predestination. Grace Alone is a beautiful and much-needed revival of this foundational doctrine and the assurance of salvation. —THE FIVE SOLAS— Historians and theologians have long recognized that at the heart of the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation were five declarations, often referred to as the "solas." These five statements summarize much of what the Reformation was about, and they distinguish Protestantism from other expressions of the Christian faith: that they place ultimate and final authority in the Scriptures, acknowledge the work of Christ alone as sufficient for redemption, recognize that salvation is by grace alone through faith alone, and seek to do all things for God’s glory. The Five Solas Series is more than a simple rehashing of these statements, but instead expounds upon the biblical reasoning behind them, leading to a more profound theological vision of our lives and callings as Christians and churches.

Download or read book BY GRACE ALONE Volume One written by Moreno Dal Bello and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-10-14 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The grace of God and the mercy of God are life-changing, they are destiny-changing. Grace and mercy diametrically change a man's course of life from being on the broad way that leads to Hell, onto the narrow way that leads to Heaven. God changes things. Grace and mercy are words of hope, not of uncertain hope, not a hope based on what you do with them, not a flimsy, wishful thinking type hope, but a definite, reliable, trustworthy and promised hope. A covenant hope. A hope that can never disappoint. A hope that is sure and unwavering. A hope that is eternal. The Christian's hope is in the God of grace. The Christian's hope is not in the fact he has changed, but solely in the One Who has changed him. The Christian's hope is in God and His grace, and not at all in himself and any of his works. The Christian's hope is not in what he has done, but only in what God has done in him.

Through the services of Amazon.com the book may be mailed or emailed anonymously, or with a note, to anyone. There are no denominational or specific organizational notices in the book so that all may feel free to use it. It is simply Scripture. POSTAL EVANGELISM is the use of mail and email to spread the good news of salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, as revealed in Scripture alone, to the glory of God alone. Time with family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, or strangers is usually spent talking about anything and everything except what is most important. There seems to be a conspiracy of silence, a barrier, that forbids sharing the knowledge of the way of salvation as it is revealed in the word of God. POSTAL EVANGELISM offers a way of breaking through the barrier. Scripture quotations are from the World English Bible.

Book Synopsis Salvation by Grace Through Faith Alone by : Don Wenzel
Download or read book Salvation by Grace Through Faith Alone written by Don Wenzel and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for today’s church. However, it is not written to impugn anyone’s belief. Rather, the purpose is to redirect the sole honor, glory, and credit for anyone’s salvation toward the Triune God and away from any human initiative or action. To take credit for any part of salvation, regardless of the amount, is to take away from the effectiveness of the workings of the Holy Spirit, Christ’s sacrifice, and the Father’s divine will.
Book Synopsis The Gift of Faith by : Bryan Holstrom
Download or read book The Gift of Faith written by Bryan Holstrom and published by Ambassador International. This book was released on 2012-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does a person come to faith in Christ? Is that faith a gift from God or the work of man--or some combination of the two? As Martin Luther wrote long ago, the issue of who does what in the matter of salvation constitutes the most fundamental of questions that the believer in Christ must face. It was the question at the heart of the struggle to reform the church in the sixteenth century, and it has resurfaced as a source of contention within the evangelical church of our day. In The Gift of Faith, Bryan Holstrom offers a fresh exploration of the issues involved and the biblical basis for the traditional understanding that faith is a gift from God. He lays out the relationship between grace and faith, and argues that the teaching on salvation that is found in many churches today is derived more from the modern self-esteem movement than from a careful reading of the Bible. Most importantly, Holstrom demonstrates that what is ultimately at stake in the battle over grace and faith is our understanding of the glory of God. This book will help you discover how that glory shines through most brilliantly in his bringing sinners to salvation; a work that finds its beginning and end in his grace alone.
Book Synopsis God's Gift - Grace and Salvation by : Robert H. James
Download or read book God's Gift - Grace and Salvation written by Robert H. James and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-08-23 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As demonstrated in the Bible, you can't purchase it, you can't steal it and you can't earn it. As with all things that are real acts of love; “Grace and Salvation” are a gift from God! A summation of all that God has done to effect the deliverance of mankind from sin. It includes all of His acts which show mercy and love to undeserving mankind. We must also realize that God's grace and salvation is eternal and infinite and more than most of us can comprehend. Therefore; we can proceed in life knowing that through His eternal love for us He provided His Son to die in our place. Thereby, His gift of grace and salvation expresses itself in real acts of love.“But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Jesus and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Jesus. “(Ephesians 2:4-7) KJV. Therefore our salvation is gained through the grace of God and is granted to those who accept by fa7ith God's conditions of repentance and faith in Jesus! “Salvation can only be available to those who believe in Jesus and is dependent on God alone.” For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Ephesians 2:8 (KJV). It's a gift from God!

Book Synopsis Covenant Theology and Justification by Faith by : Jeong Koo Jeon
Download or read book Covenant Theology and Justification by Faith written by Jeong Koo Jeon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-05-23 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the Shepherd Controversy (1975-1982) and the contemporary debate on covenant and justification by faith from the perspectives of historical, systematic, and biblical theology. The distinctive contribution lies in the identification that the Shepherd Controversy as a logical outcome of rejecting the distinction between Law and Gospel at Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia. The larger problem is that Norman Shepherd and other associated theologians reject the distinction between Law and Gospel, injecting their monocovenantalism into the theologies of Calvin, the Westminster Standards, and Murray. The result has been hermeneutical and theological confusion among some of the followers of the Union with Christ School scholars. Reformed theonomists (led by Greg Bahnsen), Auburn Avenue theologians, and pastors are also monocovenantalists and have been influenced by the Union with Christ School scholars directly and indirectly. Their common denominator is the rejection of the distinction between Law and Gospel in their analysis and understanding of covenant and justification by faith. Having been influenced by the Union with Christ School scholars at Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia, some scholars began to adopt the hermeneutics and theology of the New Perspective on Paul, which is anti-Reformational and anti-Pauline. The adaptation of the New Perspective on Paul among some of the followers of the Union with Christ School is a logical step because both of them reject the distinction between Law and Gospel, which was a key hermeneutical and theological tool during the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation against the background of the medieval legalistic religion.
Book Synopsis BIRTH, CRIMINAL HISTORY AND JUDGMENT OF THE ROMAN C. CHURCH by : Luis Munoz
Download or read book BIRTH, CRIMINAL HISTORY AND JUDGMENT OF THE ROMAN C. CHURCH written by Luis Munoz and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2013-08-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses history and the Bible to offers a fresh and scriptural interpretation of passages of the Bible which for centuries remained a mystery to the student of Bible prophecy, including “Mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of harlots and of the abomination of the earth”. I will explore the myths and deception of Roman Catholicism and their direct connection with the idolatrous worship system of the Mother and Child of ancient Babylon. The claims that Roman Catholicism is the only true Church of Christ on Earth and the claim that man can’t find salvation apart from her is the greatest deception the world has ever known. Centuries of moral crisis and sexual abuse of children speak volumes about the true nature of the leaders of the Catholic Church. The abhorrence of marriage and the negative view of women recorded in the Canon Laws clearly reflect the Vatican’s Gnostic belief on sexual intercourse and the imposition of celibacy. Many people throughout the world equate “Christianity” with everything that is vile, contemptible and depraved. For centuries the Roman C. Church suppressed basic human rights and also persecuted and murdered anyone who held beliefs which conflicted with the dogma of the church. During the horrors of the “Inquisition” tens of thousands of people were tortured, dismembered, beaten, and burned alive, all in the name of a fraudulent faith. Roman Catholicism is the false representation of truth and also the cause great many people throughout history have repudiated true Christianity. The history of crimes the papacy has committed throughout history is so compelling that it would inevitably lead any objective thinker to the conclusion that throughout the history of the world there hasn’t been any other organization as notorious as the Roman C. Church. The long history of cruelty, crimes and immorality that for centuries the church of Judas has committed on every generation, provides irrefutable proof that she is not of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the atonement, the meaning of the death of Jesus Christ.

Book Synopsis Law & Liberty: A Biblical Look at Legalism by : Don Kistler
Download or read book Law & Liberty: A Biblical Look at Legalism written by Don Kistler and published by The Northampton Press. This book was released on 2015-03-16 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors in this compilation address the issue of legalism from a variety of angles. John MacArthur shows, first that obedience to God is not an issue of legalism, but an issue of love. In his second chapter, he deals with the inevitable response of people who are confronted with Biblical standards, "Judge not that ye be not judged." Here MacArthur shows what our Lord meant when He said that, and shows what biblical discernment really is, that there is a vast difference between judgmental and holding people accountable to God's standards. Phil Johnson, in his first chapter, deals with Christian liberty. In his second chapter, he takes a critical look at two kinds of legalism, then explores the relationship of Christian love and Christian liberty. Joel Beeke shows that enthusiasm for God's law is not necessarily legalism. One can be zealous without being legalistic. As David wrote: "Oh, how I love Thy Law!" Bruce Bickel explains that legalism is due to a weak understanding of what Christ accomplished on the cross. Jim Elliff makes clear that legalism is an attack on unity within the Body of Christ, particularly local congregations. Ken Talbot helps us to see that legalism is inconsistent with and incompatible with the doctrine of justification by faith alone. He points out that the doctrine of "free will" leads to this dangerous position. Rick Phillips explores the relationship to loving God and obeying His law. Some today believe that love is all that matters, and that the law as a guideline to love is extinct. Then this author shows that Biblical sanctification is the antidote to and the opposite of legalism. Steven J. Lawson shows that legalism is the result of holding to man-made traditions over the truth of God's Word. Second, he points out how dangerous and deadly a thing legalism is and why.

Book Synopsis Jesus: Beyond Reasonable Doubt by : Rev. Dr. Siotame Havea
Download or read book Jesus: Beyond Reasonable Doubt written by Rev. Dr. Siotame Havea and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-10-26 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus: Beyond Reasonable Doubt: Legal Perspectives of Redemption is an attempt to look into the rule of law to provide reasons as to why Jesus ought to be regarded as the only Saviour of the world. This book unravels the divine connection between the law and the redemptive act of God. Every single step of Gods redemptive act was formulated to satisfy the requirements of the law. Gods love is a holy love. Thus, the loving act of God cannot be shown outside Gods legal framework. That is, the divine love of God is a legal act and it cannot be done outside the law that is based on holiness. After discussing the rule of law in the process of Gods Redemptive act, we will be able to see why nobody else can be the Saviour of the world beside Jesus Christ. Jesus states: I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father accept through me (John 14:6).
