Book Description
The fall of man resulted in Adam and Eve losing all consciousness of God. They woke up to self and found themselves imprisoned by a completely new nature—the sin nature—which would poison the entire human race for all time. From then until now, the troubles of the world—wars, man’s inhumanity to man, his dependency on cruel vices, and the habits of hell—are all caused by the sin nature which rules every person. Of course the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ broke the hold of this deadly yoke and repositioned the believer in Christ. So why do Christians struggle so hard to live for God? In this revelatory book, Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart explains how the sin nature, which remains in Christians, can be reactivated, and how victory over the world, the flesh, and the Devil can only be maintained through faith in the Cross of Christ.

Against God and Nature
Author: Thomas H. McCall
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433565226
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
Without a proper understanding of sin, there can never be a proper understanding of the gospel. Sin is opposed both to God's will and to nature, leaving us in need of God's grace and redemption. This comprehensive exploration of the doctrine of sin looks at what the Bible teaches about sin's origin, nature, and consequences, engaging with historical and contemporary movements. Dealing with difficult issues such as original sin, angelic sin, corporate sin, greater and lesser sins, and more, this book ends with a discussion on divine grace, which is the only hope for the problem of sin.

The Mosaic of Atonement
Author: Joshua M. McNall
Publisher: Zondervan Academic
ISBN: 0310097657
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
The Mosaic of Atonement offers a fresh and integrated approach to historic models of atonement. While modern treatments of the doctrine have tended toward either a defensive hierarchy, in which one model is singled out as most important, or a disconnected plurality, in which multiple images are affirmed but with no order of arrangement, this book argues for a reintegration of four famous "pieces" of atonement doctrine through the governing image of Christ-shaped mosaic. Unlike a photograph in which tiny pixels present a seamless blending of color and shape, a mosaic allows each piece to retain its recognizable particularity, while also integrating them in the service of a single larger image. If one stands close, one can identify individual squares of glass or tile that compose the greater picture. And if one steps back, there is the larger picture to be admired. Yet in the great mosaics of age-old Christian churches, the goal is not for viewers to construct the image, as in a puzzle, but to appreciate it. So too with this mosaic of atonement doctrine. While no one model is set above or against the others, the book notes particular ways in which the "pieces"--the feet, heart, head, and hands--mutually support one another to form a more holistic vision of Christ's work. "This is my body," Jesus said to his followers, and by reintegrating these oft-dismembered aspects of atonement, we will note fresh ways in which it was given for us.

God the Holy Spirit vs. The Sin Nature
Author: R. B. Thieme, Jr.
Publisher: R. B. Thieme, Jr., Bible Ministries
ISBN: 155764134X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 47
Book Description
God the Holy Spirit vs. The Sin Nature is a ceaseless inner conflict. Each Christian by his own volition determines who controls his life at any given moment. The sin nature is inherent at birth. As long as we live we retain this genetic distorter of our lives, with the result that we cannot fulfill the plan of God. Yet God’s marvelous plan can be fulfilled. Only the invisible ministry of God the Holy Spirit can execute the Christian way of life. This book tells the dramatic story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. After a powerful spiritual victory, he flees in terror because of an empty threat against his life. The spiritual hero becomes totally ineffective. This Old Testament prophet vividly illustrates a principle that applies to every New Testament believer. There is a vast difference between living under the control of the sin nature and leading a life of spiritual dynamics under the control of the Holy Spirit.

The Holiness of God
Author: R.C. Sproul
Publisher: NavPress
ISBN: 1496437217
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.
