Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greatest Exchange Adapted from Kiss the Wave by Dave Furman By Dave Furman Kelly Gissendaner was on death row for almost two decades for the murder of her husband. She planned the murder and convinced her lover to kidnap her husband and kill him in the woods. Afterward they set the evidence on fire. Their motive was to collect a life insurance policy and receive sole ownership of the house the Gissendaners had just purchased. A jury convicted Kelly of murder for her role in the crime, and after refusing a plea deal, she was given a death sentence. While she sat on death row, Kelly's entire life changed. She was transformed as she came to understand that Jesus died for her. She encountered the Bible and the truth of the gospel. God worked in her heart to bring her to repentance of her sins and to faith in Christ. The fruit of Kelly's transformation was on display for all to see. Kelly began to minister to the other women in prison and led various Bible studies. She counseled women through an air vent and prevented some women from committing suicide. Perhaps the biggest change was that, in Christ, she found peace in the midst of the storm of death she was facing. She was in awe that Jesus took her place on the ultimate death row. On one occasion she said, "I have learned first-hand that no one, not even me, is beyond redemption through God's grace and mercy. I have learned to place my hope in the God I now know, the God whose plans and promises are made known to me in the whole story of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus." Her hope was not in her continued breaths in this life, but in her union with Christ in this life and in the next. She was a shipwrecked woman who finally found land. Not all of us have been convicted of murder, but all of us have at one time rejected God. The Bible is clear that we are all under an eternal death sentence and apart from God's intervention we would all sit on death row facing a forever death. The truth of God's holiness and our sin means we can never be in his presence unless something changes. We are not simply in need of an inspiring example--we need a saving substitute. We need someone who will take our punishment. When Jesus was being tried for crimes he did not commit, the Roman governor Pilate gave the people a choice: He could release Jesus, an innocent man, or a man called Barabbas, who was a known terrorist. The crowd chose Barabbas and demanded Jesus to be crucified. The crowd chose a murderer over the one who brings the dead back to life. They chose evil over the one who loves perfectly. Put yourself in Barabbas's place for a minute. You are walking to your death in chains and then all of a sudden, when you least expect it, you are free. Then you hear the words begin again: "Crucify him, crucify him." You see another person walking by. Those chants are not for you. The guards are dragging another one to his death-- Jesus of Nazareth. He's beaten and flogged and is forced to carry his cross to his death. It's the very cross you had imagined yourself carrying only moments earlier. You think to yourself, "That's my death he's dying." The Bible says of Jesus that "For our sake [God] made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God" (2 Cor. 5:21). You and I are sinners. We sit in a spiritual prison, bound helpless, awaiting the day when we will receive the just punishment we deserve. We sit on the death row of all death rows waiting to be dragged out to death not knowing when God's righteous judgment will come down. But the good news is that when you repent of your sin and trust in Jesus to save you, Jesus goes off to the cross in your place. He gets what you deserve; you get what he deserves. It is the greatest exchange in all of history. Jesus gives up his life so you can have life. You and I are Barabbas. We need someone to take our place, and Jesus has done that for us. He willingly took the wrath of God upon himself. On the cross, Jesus absorbed all our wickedness. He has poured out his perfect love upon us. First Peter 3:18 says, "For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit." Jesus was leading a true revolution. You can always stop a Barabbas, but you can't stop Jesus. He took our place on the cross so that the greatest exchange in all of history would bring you to God. If you are reading this and want Jesus Christ to become your substitute and exchange your sin for his glory, call out to him right now with a prayer like this: Heavenly Father, I believe that Jesus Christ is your Son, and that he died on the cross to save me from my sin. I believe that he rose again to life, and that he invites me to live forever with him in heaven as part of your family. Because of what Jesus has done, I ask you to forgive me of my sin and give me eternal life. Please guide me to a Bible-believing church where I can grow as a Christian with others who love Jesus. Amen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recuerdo que era un dIa de verano soleado en Brasil. Mi esposa, Denalyn, y yo pasAbamos la tarde con nuestros amigos Paul y Debbie. Su casa era como un respiro de aire puro. Nosotros vivIamos cerca del centro de Rio de Janeiro en una torre de apartamentos. Paul y Debbie vivIan a una hora del centro de la ciudad en una casa linda donde el aire era mAs fresco, las calles mAs limpias, y la vida mAs calmada. AdemAs, tenIan una piscina. A Jenna, nuestra hija de dos aNos, le gustaba jugar con los hijos de Paul y Debbie. Y eso era exactamente lo que hacIa cuando se cayO. No tenIamos la intenciOn de dejar a los niNos desatendidos. HabIamos entrado a la casa por un momento para servir la comida. EstAbamos platicando y comiendo cuando la hija de Paul y Debbie, que tenIa cuatro aNos, entrO y muy casualmente le dijo a su mamA "Jenna callO dentro de la piscina." Salimos volando. Jenna estaba golpeando el agua con sus manos en un intento desesperado de no hundirse, pues no llevaba puesto un salvavidas. Paul la alcanzO primero. BrincO al agua y con sus brazos la entregO a Denalyn. Jenna tosiO y llorO un poco, y con eso quedO como si nada hubiera pasado. La tragedia fue evadida. Mi hija estaba bien. ImagInate nuestro agradecimiento! Inmediatamente nos reunimos a orar y levantar un canto de agradecimiento. Nuestros pies nunca tocaron tierra el resto del dIa, y Jenna permaneciO en nuestros brazos. AUn camino a casa, yo agradecIa a Dios. En el retrovisor podIa ver a Jenna profundamente dormida, y orE de nuevo: "Dios, eres tan bueno." Luego me surgiO una pregunta en mi mente. Una que viene de Dios? O de la parte de mI que lucha al tratar de hacer sentido de todo esto? No sE. Pero aUn recuerdo lo que la voz preguntaba: "Si Jenna no hubiera sobrevivido, seguirIa siendo Dios bueno?" HabIa pasado la mayor parte de la tarde anunciando la bondad de Dios. Pero si hubiEramos perdido a Jenna, habrIa llegado a una conclusiOn diferente? Dios es bueno solo cuando el resultado tambiEn lo es? Cuando el cAncer estA en remisiOn, decimos: "Dios es bueno." Cuando llega el aumento de sueldo, anunciamos: "Dios es bueno." Cuando la universidad nos admite o el marcador final estA a favor de nuestro equipo..."Dios es bueno." DirIamos o decimos lo mismo bajo circunstancias diferentes? En el cementerio al igual que en el cuarto del bebE? En la fila de las oficinas de desempleo al igual que en la fila de la tienda? En dIas de recesiOn al igual que en dIas de provisiOn? Es Dios siempre bueno? La mayorIa, si no es que todos, tenemos un acuerdo contractual con Dios. El hecho de que El aUn no lo firma no nos impide creer que lo tenemos. Prometo ser una persona buena y decente, y a cambio Dios...salvarA a mi hijo...sanarA a mi cOnyuge...protegerA mi trabajo...(llena el espacio en blanco). Esto es justo, no? Sin embargo, cuando Dios no cumple con nuestras expectativas mAs profundas, nos quedamos girando en un tornado de preguntas. SerA bueno en lo absoluto? EstarA Dios enojado conmigo? Perplejo? Muy ocupado? EstarA limitado su poder? EstarA restringida su autoridad? SerA el diablo mAs listo que Dios? Cuando la vida no va bien, quE debemos pensar acerca de Dios? DOnde estA El en todo esto? A veces, Dios permite tragedias. Permite que la tierra se seque y que los tallos crezcan sin vegetaciOn. Permite que SatanAs desencadene el caos, pero no permite que SatanAs triunfe. Que no es esta la promesa de la Biblia en Romanos 8:28: "Ahora bien, sabemos que Dios dispone todas las cosas para el bien de quienes lo aman, los que han sido llamados de acuerdo con su propOsito"? Dios promete rendir belleza de "todas las cosas," no de "cada cosa" individualmente. Los eventos individuales pueden ser malos, pero el fruto final es bueno. Podemos ver ejemplos pequeNos de esto en nuestras propias vidas. Cuando disfrutas de una taza de cafE y dices: "QuE rico cafE!," Que estAs diciendo?Que la bolsa de plAstico que contiene los granos de cafE estA rica? Que los granos de cafE en sI son ricos? QuE el agua caliente estA rica? QuE el filtro de cafE estA rico? No, ninguno de estos. Lo bueno o rico sucede cuando los ingredientes trabajan juntos: la bolsa se abre, los granos se muelen, el agua se calienta a la temperatura exacta. Es la cooperaciOn colectiva de los elementos que lo hace rico o bueno. Nada en la Biblia nos llevarIa a declarar una hambruna como algo bueno, o un ataque al corazOn como algo bueno, o un ataque terrorista como algo bueno. Estas son calamidades terribles, nacidas de un mundo caIdo. Sin embargo, cada mensaje en la Biblia nos obliga a creer que Dios las mezclarA con otros ingredientes y harA surgir algo bueno de ello. Pero tenemos que dejar que Dios defina lo que es "bueno." Nuestra definiciOn incluye salud, comodidad, y reconocimiento. CuAl es su definiciOn? En el caso de su hijo, Jesucristo, la buena vida consistiO de luchas, tormentas, y muerte. Pero Dios obrO todo para el bien mayor: su gloria y nuestra salvaciOn. SerA posible que cambiar la vida mAs difIcil por la maravilla del cielo sea un buen trato? La Biblia dice: "Pues los sufrimientos ligeros y efImeros que ahora padecemos producen una gloria eterna que vale muchIsimo mAs que todo sufrimiento" (2 Corintios 4:17). La oferta increIble de Dios SupOn que te he invitado a experimentar el dIa de tus sueNos. Veinticuatro horas en un paraIso de una isla con tus personas, comida y actividades favoritas. La Unica condiciOn es vivir un milisegundo de incomodidad. Por razones que he decidido no contarte, necesitarAs comenzar tu dIa con el milisegundo de aflicciOn. AceptarIas mi oferta? Creo que sI lo harIas. Una fracciOn de un segundo no es nada comparado con las veinticuatro horas. En el reloj de Dios, tU te encuentras en medio de tu milisegundo. Comparado con la eternidad, quE son setenta, ochenta, o noventa aNos? Es simplemente un vapor, un tronar de dedos comparado con el cielo. Tu dolor no durarA para siempre, pero tU sI. Recuerda que "en nada se comparan los sufrimientos actuales con la gloria que habrA de revelarse en nosotros" (Romanos 8:18). Si ya has aceptado la oferta de Dios a entrar en su familia al poner tu fe en Jesucristo, entonces puedes confiar en el plan de Dios para tu vida en cualquier crisis. La Biblia nos promete que nada "en toda la creaciOn, podrA apartarnos del amor que Dios nos ha manifestado en Cristo JesUs nuestro SeNor" (Romanos 8:39). Si aUn no has aceptado la oferta de Dios, lo puedes hacer ahora mismo. No porque te lo hayas ganado, sino porque El te ama y porque el regalo de salvaciOn estA disponible para todos los que lo profesan como SeNor: Cree que Dios mandO a su hijo, Jesucristo, a morir en la cruz en tu lugar por tus pecados. Cree que JesUs resucitO de entre los muertos despuEs de tres dIas, demostrando que Dios lo aceptO como tu suplente. Cree la declaraciOn de JesUs cuando dijo "--Yo soy el camino, la verdad y la vida --le contestO JesUs--. Nadie llega al Padre sino por mI" (Juan 14:6). Confiesa que has pecado y pide el perdOn de Dios. InvItalo a entrar a tu vida y pIdele ayuda para dejar tus pecados atrAs. Si crees estas cosas de todo corazOn y quieres ser parte de la familia eterna de Dios, puedes orar asI "Dios mIo, acepto que soy un pecador y necesito tu perdOn. Acepto a Jesucristo como mi Salvador, quien dio su vida por mis pecados. Te entrego mi vida, Padre. Por favor entra en mi vida y ayUdame a vivir una vida que te agrade. AmEn."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is the Gospel? What exactly do Christians mean when they talk about the "gospel of Jesus Christ"? Since the word "gospel" means "good news," when Christians talk about the gospel, they're simply telling the good news about Jesus! But it's not just any good news; it demands a response! It's a message from God saying, "Good news! Here is how you can be saved from my judgment!" That's an announcement you can't afford to ignore. So, what is the good news about Jesus Christ? Since the earliest Christians announced the good news about Jesus, it has been organized around these questions . . . 1. Who made us, and to whom are we accountable? 2. What is our problem? 3. What is God's solution to our problem? 4. How can I be included in his solution? Christians through the centuries since Christ have answered those questions with the same truth from the Bible. 1. We are accountable to God. 2. Our problem is our sin against him. 3. God's solution is salvation through Jesus Christ. 4. We come to be included in that salvation by faith and repentance. Let's summarize those points like this: God, Mankind, Jesus Christ, and Our Response. God The first thing to know about the good news of Jesus is that "in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1). Everything starts from that point, so if you get that point wrong then everything else that follows will be wrong. Because God created everything--including us--he has the right to tell us how to live. You have to understand that in order to understand the good news about Jesus. How would you describe God's character? Loving and good? Compassionate and forgiving? All true. God describes himself as "merciful and gracious, slowto anger, and abounding in love and faithfulness . . . forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin." Then God adds, "but who will by no means clear the guilty" (Exodus 34:6-7). That explodes about 90 percent of what people today think they know about God. This loving God does not leave the guilty unpunished. To understand just how glorious and life-giving the gospel of Jesus Christ is, we have to understand that God is also holy and righteous. He is determined never to ignore or tolerate sin. Including ours! Mankind When God created the first human beings--Adam and Eve, he intended for them to live under his righteous rule in perfect joy--obeying him and living in fellowship with him. When Adam disobeyed God, and ate the one fruit that God had told him not to eat, that fellowship with God was broken. Moreover, Adam and Eve had declared rebellion against God. They were denying his authority over their lives. It's not just Adam and Eve who are guilty of sin.The Bible says "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God . . . none is righteous, no, not one" (Romans 3:23,10). Yet, we often think of our sins as not much more than violations of some heavenly traffic law. So we wonder why God gets so upset about them. But sin is much more than that. It's the rejection of God himself and his right to exercise authority over those to whom he gives life. Once you understand sin in that light, you begin to understand why "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23). That's not just physical death, but spiritual death, a forceful separating of our sinful, rebellious selves from the presence of God forever. The Bible teaches that the final destiny for unbelieving sinners is eternal, active judgment in a place called "hell." This is the Bible's sobering verdict: "It is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment" (Hebrews 9:27). Every one of us will be held accountable to God. The Bible warns that "whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God" (John 3:18). But . . . Jesus Christ The word "Christ" means "anointed one," referring to anointing a king with oil when he is crowned. So, when we say "Jesus Christ," we're saying that Jesus is a King! When Jesus began his public ministry, he told the people, "The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe the good news!" Centuries before, God had promised that he would come as a great King to rescue his people from their sins. And here was Jesus saying, "The kingdom of God is here . . . now! I am that great King!" Eventually Jesus's followers realized that his mission was to bring sinful people into that kingdom. Jesus came to die in their place, to take the punishment they deserved for their rebellion against God. As Jesus died on a cross, the awful weight of all our sins fell on his shoulders. The sentence of death God had pronounced against rebellious sinners struck. And Jesus died. For you and me! But the story doesn't end there. Jesus the Crucified is no longer dead. The Bible tells us that he rose from the grave. He is not just King Jesus the Crucified, but King Jesus the Crucified and Resurrected! Jesus's rising from the grave was God's way of saying, "What Jesus claimed about who he is and what he came to do is true!" Our Response What does God expect us to do with the information that Jesus died in our place so we can be saved from God's righteous wrath against our sins? He expects us to respond with repentance and faith. To repent of our sins means to turn away from our rebellion against God. Repentance doesn't mean we'll bring an immediate end to our sinning. It does mean, though, that we'll never again live at peace with our sins. Not only that, but we also turn to God in faith. Faith is reliance. It's a promise-founded trust in the risen Jesus to save you from your sins. "God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned . . . He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree . . . the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God" (John 3:17-18; 1 Peter 2:24; 3:18). If God is ever to count us righteous, he'll have to do it on the basis of someone else's record, someone who's qualified to stand in as our substitute. And that's what happens when a person is saved by Jesus: All our sins are credited to Jesus who took the punishment for them, and the perfect righteousness of Jesus is then credited to us when we place our trust in what he has done for us! That's what faith means--to rely on Jesus, to trust in him alone to stand in our place and win a righteous verdict from God! Do you believe that you have rebelled against God and deserve his wrath? That Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died the death that you deserve for your sins? That he rose from the grave and lives to stand in your place as your Substitute and Savior? If that is your heartfelt conviction, you can tell him in words like these . . . Jesus, I know I can't save myself, and I know you have promised to save those who repent and put their faith in you alone. I trust you to forgive my sins and give me eternal life. Thank you for dying in my place to make my salvation possible! If you've done that, then a whole life of getting to know Jesus lies ahead, beginning right now! There's much more to learn from the Spirit of God who comes to live in all those who put their trust in King Jesus!

Book excerpt: "A devastating attack upon the dominance of atheism in science today." Giovanni Fazio, Senior Physicist, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics The debate over the ultimate source of truth in our world often pits science against faith. In fact, some high-profile scientists today would have us abandon God entirely as a source of truth about the universe. In this book, two professional astronomers push back against this notion, arguing that the science of today is not in a position to pronounce on the existence of God—rather, our notion of truth must include both the physical and spiritual domains. Incorporating excerpts from a letter written in 1615 by famed astronomer Galileo Galilei, the authors explore the relationship between science and faith, critiquing atheistic and secular understandings of science while reminding believers that science is an important source of truth about the physical world that God created.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rediscovering the Voice of God Adapted from Discovering the Good Life by Tim Savage By Tim Savage In our world there are thousands of weary souls and troubled hearts, people yearning for satisfaction in life but finding mostly disappointment. But it doesn't have to be that way. Jesus Christ promised life and promised it in abundance. Moreover, he has done everything in his matchless power to fulfill the promise. On the cross, Jesus purged the power of what ruins life--sin. On the cross, he paid the penalty of what ends life--death. In the resurrection, he opened the door to a new way to be human--fullness of life. In the combined work of the cross and the resurrection, he purified hearts and fitted them to be vessels of his life. It is a life overbrimming with love, power, truth, peace, goodness, righteousness, comfort, and joy. Not all Christians know this abundance of life, and perhaps many reading these words feel less than completely full. The problem boils down to this: you are probably unaware of your identity in Christ. You do not understand who you are in Christ. Every day you receive a steady stream of verbal input. Some of it begins in your imagination--as interior dialogues of the mind--and some of it begins in the world--as the external messages of society. Too often it is burdensome input, focusing on life's problems and whispering negative messages such as "You're going to fail," "You'll never be attractive," "You ought to be more successful by now," "You'll never escape the past," "You're destined to be alone," "You'll never amount to anything," "Your goals are beyond reach," "You'll never find happiness." "You lost your job," "You're divorced," "You filed for bankruptcy," "You're hopeless." "Shame on you!" "You're not good enough!" It is vital to discern the voices. Those stoking discouragement, fear, and guilt can be dismissed, because they do not fit the vocabulary of God. They do not originate from him. To whom, then, do we owe dispiriting messages? The apostle Paul tells us. "We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places" (Eph. 6:12). The voice of discouragement belongs to the voice of "this present darkness," hence to the devil. And the goal of Satan is to derail us, to slay us with negativity. He "prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour" (1 Pet. 5:8). As Christians, we must distinguish the voices. If they condemn us, they are not from God. "There is . . . no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" (Rom. 8:1). For fullness of life, we must attune ourselves to the promises of God. For instance, God promises that "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Heb. 13:5; see Josh. 1:5). We need not listen to the voice of loneliness, even when we feel desolate and deserted. God promises that he will make us "more than conquerors through him who loved us" (Rom. 8:37). We must not listen to the voice of insecurity, even amidst stinging failure. God promises that "all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose" (Rom. 8:28). We must not listen to the voice of despair, even when facing difficult trials. God promises that we can "rejoice always" (1 Thess. 5:16; see Phil. 4:4). We need not listen to the voice of sorrow. God promises "peace I leave with you" (John 14:27). We must not listen to the voice of doubt, apprehension, and vulnerability. God promises that he has already "seated us with him in the heavenly places" (Eph. 2:6). We need not listen to the voice of anxiety and the possibility of future losses. God promises that he will "graciously give us all things" (Rom. 8:32; see Matt. 6:33). We need not listen to the voice of want. God promises that he "is for us" (Rom. 8:31). We must not listen to the voice of detractors. God promises that he "will supply every need of [ours] according to his riches in glory" (Phil. 4:19). We need not listen to the voice of worry, even in times of uncertainty. When life-sapping messages such as these assault us--and they do with alarming frequency--we must consider the source. They do not emanate from the life-imparting God. Hence they can be discounted. We must measure the voices of the world against the promises of God. It is sobering to admit that we often spend vast segments of our lives--days, weeks, months, even years--without seeking to hear the voice of God. It is time to amend our ways. God speaks to us through his Son Jesus Christ in the Bible. We must attune ourselves to the words of Christ, listening to him daily, as through headphones inserted into our ears, so that we are reminded continuously of the loving promises of the heavenly Father. Remembering those promises is all we need for life. Perhaps you are reading these words and feeling a gnawing restlessness in your heart. You are still searching for more in life. The good news is that there is more. It will be found not in the things of this world -- not in science or nature or possessions or money or religion or pleasure -- but in Jesus Christ, in listening to the voice of Christ. Nothing else will satisfy your heart. If you are reading this and desire these promises that God gives to those who trust in him, call out to Jesus now by praying something like this: Heavenly Father, I believe that Jesus Christ is your Son, and that he died on the cross to save me from my sin. I believe that he rose again to life, and that he invites me to live forever with him in heaven as part of your family. Because of what Jesus has done, I ask you to forgive me of my sin and give me eternal life. Please lead me to a Bible-believing church where I can grow in faith with others who love Jesus. Amen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is easy to understand that man has needs, but do we have a sense of God’s need? Indeed, we may even wonder, “Who has a greater need, man or God?” In this book, Witness Lee presents his burden that we would “turn our eyes from the earth to heaven to see a need that is immensely greater than man’s need—God’s need. Without seeing God’s need, it is difficult for people who do not have a sense of need to be saved. Furthermore, without seeing God’s need, it is difficult for those who are saved to have a heavenly living or to obtain power and faith. May these words lead us to see the need on God’s side so that our attention can be shifted from man to God.”
