Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What are my hours becoming This book is about that question.It is not a book about productivity. It is not a self-help guide dressed in scripture. It is an honest reckoning with what the Bible actually teaches about the weight of a human life, the coming moment when that weight will be measured, and the extraordinary possibility that ordinary hours - your hours - can become something that outlasts your funeral and shines in eternity.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - If you have never heard the word Preterist before you are not alone. It is not a term that comes up in most Sunday morning services or ordinary conversations about the Christian faith. But the idea behind it is spreading - through books, websites, podcasts, Bible studies, and theological circles - and it is an idea that strikes at something so central to the Christian hope that every believer deserves to understand what it claims and why it matters.…

Neuware - Introduction: Why This Matters There is a question that has quietly troubled students >Where, exactly, do Ezekiel chapters 38 through 48 >This may sound like an academic puzzle best left to seminary classrooms. It is not. The answer has profound implications for how we understand the nature of Israel's covenantal relationship with God, the finality and sufficiency of Christ's sacrifice, the meaning of the New Covenant, and the shape of events yet to come. Every major school of prophetic interpretation has attempted to place Ezekiel 38-48 somewhere on the timeline - before the Tribulation, during it, after it, in the Millennium, or after the Millennium. As we will demonstrate carefully and honestly, every one of those positions runs into serious, sometimes fatal, theological and textual problems. There is, however, a position that resolves these difficulties. It is what we are calling the Window-Gap - a period of time after the Rapture of the Church and before the beginning of the seven-year Tribulation. This book will make the case for that position, not by forcing the text, but by following it with careful attention to what it actually says. The question is not whether we believe Scripture. >One foundational question deserves brief attention before we proceed. This book operates within the framework of a pre-Tribulation catching away of believers - what is commonly called the Rapture. We recognize that this term carries baggage for some readers and that the timing of this event is genuinely debated among serious students of Scripture. We do not attempt a full defense of that position here. What we do note is this: Scripture establishes that the resurrection produces a spiritual body (1 Corinthians 15:44). Revelation 7:9-14 places a great multitude in heaven wearing white robes at a point before the Tribulation's judgments have run their course. Those robes require resurrection bodies to wear them. The presence of that multitude in heaven in glorified form before the Antichrist has completed his work is itself evidence that a resurrection and catching away has already occurred. The argument of this book does not rest on that observation alone - but it is consistent with it, >Before we can understand where Ezekiel 38-48 fits, we need to understand two things: what these chapters actually describe, and what the theological requirements are for placing them at any point in time. We will take those in order.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Every human being - saved or unsaved - carries the image of God. Not as a distant theological idea but as a living daily reality. Image Power identifies the specific attributes that constitute that image, demonstrates that the Fall did not destroy a single one of them, and shows what understanding this truth means for how you live every ordinary day of your life.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - There is a group of Christians on the streets and colleges today who believe something that sounds, at first, like the highest form of holiness: they believe a true Christian does not sin. Not 'shouldn't.' Not 'is being conformed away from.' Does not.If you have never run into someone from this group, you might. And if you do, don't make the mistake I've seen too many well-meaning believers make - assuming these folks are obviously wacky, obviously unread, obviously easy to correct. They know their Bibles. They have verses ready. If you are not prepared, they will out-argue you in front of a crowd, and you will be the one who looks like you don't know your own faith.I've stood on enough street corners and campus squares to know that the sharpest error is rarely the one that looks foolish. It's the one that looks like devotion.So here is the question this book exists to answer honestly, from the Scriptures, without flinching in either direction: Do Christians sin And if they do, what is sin, where does it come from, and what - if anything -can be done about it I want to say plainly, before we go one page further: this book is not an argument for sin. I am not writing to give anyone permission to sin, comfort in sin, or an excuse for sin.I am writing because I have watched two errors do damage on opposite sides of this issue - one group redefining sin so narrowly that they've convinced themselves they've outgrown it, and another group defining the Christian life so hopelessly that they've stopped expecting real victory at all. Both errors are dangerous. Both misrepresent Scripture. And both, in the end, hurt the people sitting under them.My identity before God is that I am a saint, not a sinner. That's not sentiment - that's Scripture (1 Corinthians 1:2, Ephesians 1:1). The question this book wrestles with is not whether I'm a saint. It's whether a saint can sin, and remain a saint while personal holiness catches up to positional truth.We'll look at: - Whether Christians sin, and whether they have to- What sin actually is - not one definition, but three, each catching what the others miss- Where sin comes from, and why free will sits underneath every biblical definition of it- What continued after the Fall, what didn't, and what that means for the believer today- Why 'you can't go a minute without sinning'is not what Scripture teaches - and why thatmatters more than it soundsProfessor Ed Goodrick once said he would rather be comfortable with his Bible and uncomfortable with his theology, than comfortable with his theology and uncomfortable with his Bible. That's the pledge of this book. Wherever plain reading of Scripture disagrees with a tradition - mine or anyone else's - Scripture wins.…
