Book Description
Many sincere, Bible-believing Christians are Calvinists only by default. Thinking that the only choice is between Calvinism (with its presumed doctrine of eternal security) and Arminianism (with its teaching that salvation can be lost), and confident of Christ's promise to keep eternally those who believe in Him, they therefore consider themselves to be Calvinists. It takes only a few simple questions to discover that most Christians are largely unaware of what John Calvin and his early followers of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries actually believed and practiced. Nor do they fully understand what most of today's leading Calvinists believe. Although there are disputed variations of the Calvinist doctrine, among its chief proponents (whom we quote extensively in context) there is general agreement on certain core beliefs. Many evangelicals who think they are Calvinists will be surprised to learn of Calvin's belief in salvation through infant baptism and of his grossly un-Christian behavior, at times, as the "Protestant Pope" of Geneva, Switzerland. Most shocking of all, however, is Calvinism's misrepresentation of God, who "is love." It is our prayer that this volume will enable readers to examine more carefully the vital issues involved and to follow God's holy WordÂ--not man's teachings. "The first edition of this book was greeted by fervent opposition and criticism from Calvinists. In this enlarged and revised edition I have endeavored to respond to the critics." --Dave Hunt

Love in the Gospel of John
Author: Francis J. SDB Moloney
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 144124574X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
The command to love is central to the Gospel of John. Internationally respected scholar Francis Moloney offers a thorough exploration of this theme, focusing not only on Jesus's words but also on his actions. Instead of merely telling people that they must love one another, Jesus acts to make God's love known and calls all who follow him to do the same. This capstone work on John's Gospel uses a narrative approach to delve deeply into a theme at the heart of the Fourth Gospel and the life of the Christian church. Uniting rigorous exegesis with theological and pastoral insight, it makes a substantive contribution to contemporary Johannine scholarship.

Book Description
This book is dedicated to my friends going through chemo and radiation and others who, like me, suffer from a chronic affliction. Sometimes we don't give God much thought or attention until we need Him. Then, we go through all kinds of conniptions about whether He will hear us and help us because we know what our attitude toward Him has been like. And, there it is: He still loves us. There are 31 days worth of stuff in this book. They say it takes 30 days to break and make habits. You get an extra day to lock it in. LOL If you are reading the paperback version, there are pages at the end of each devotion called Love Notes on which you can write prayers and thoughts. People will be praying for you. God will use wherever we are when we finally pay attention to Him to show His love toward us and give us another opportunity to fully belong to Him and be more...be His son, be His daughter - forever.
