À propos de l'auteur
C. J. Bartels, founder of Matter of Fact Books, is a first-generation American who has flown helicopters in Korea, Europe, and throughout the Middle East. While working in China, he met his future wife's parents. Twelve months later, while stationed in Germany, he met their daughter, who would become his wife and the mother of their four wonderful children. Together they have built the home they still live in, raised a family, recorded music that didn't sell nearly as well as he had hoped, spent weeks at a time fishing with friends who somehow still choose to remain friends, and pursued more than a few ventures that didn't always go according to plan. Through every success, disappointment, adventure, and detour, one conviction has remained constant: the pursuit of truth is always worth the journey.

Pride & Humility - A Biblical Investigation from Eden to Eternity (Paperback)
impression à la demandeVendeur : Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, Etats-Unis
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. What if the story of the Bible is, in many ways, the story of pride and humility? From the first temptation in the Garden of Eden to the worship surrounding God's throne in Revelation, Scripture traces two very different paths. Pride shattered God's perfect creation, bringing rebellion, suffering, and death into the world. Yet God did not abandon the world He had made. In Jesus Christ, we discover the greatest act of humility the world has ever witnessed as the eternal Son willingly humbled Himself to accomplish the Father's perfect plan of redemption.Nearly every culture praises humility. Parents hope to see it in their children. Employers value it in their employees. Even those who reject Christianity often consider it among the highest human virtues. But what if we have assumed we know what humility is without first asking the One who created us? What if humility cannot be fully understood apart from Jesus Christ? Those questions became the starting point for Pride & Humility. What began as an investigation into why Scripture gives humility such extraordinary attention gradually revealed something much larger. Why does God oppose the proud while giving grace to the humble? Why is pride so often at the center of humanity's greatest failures? Why does Jesus describe Himself as gentle and lowly in heart? The more carefully these questions were followed through Scripture, the more they pointed toward one central question: Who belongs on the throne?That question echoes throughout the Bible. It appears in Eden when humanity reaches for what God has withheld. It rises at Babel as people seek to make a name for themselves. It stands behind the pride of kings who forget that every kingdom belongs to God. And it reaches its breathtaking answer in Jesus Christ, who, though equal with God, humbled Himself in perfect obedience to the Father. Stories that once seemed unrelated begin revealing a remarkable pattern. Joseph's forgiveness, Moses' reluctance, David's repentance, Isaiah's vision of God's holiness, Mary's song of praise, John the Baptist's declaration that Christ must increase while he must decrease, and Paul's determination to boast only in the cross all reveal something essential about humanity's proper relationship to God.Rather than offering personal opinions or self-improvement techniques, Pride & Humility allows Scripture to answer Scripture. Following the biblical story from Genesis to Revelation, this book explores why pride is so destructive, why humility is so precious to God, and why the cross stands at the very center of both. Along the way, a remarkable truth emerges: humility is not weakness, insecurity, or pretending we have no gifts or abilities. Humility is agreeing with reality. It is joyfully acknowledging that God alone belongs on the throne while gratefully receiving every good gift from His hand.Ultimately, this is not simply a book about humility. It is a book about Jesus Christ, in whom perfect humility is fully revealed. In Him we see strength without self-exaltation, authority without domination, holiness without pride, justice without cruelty, and love without selfish ambition. My hope is not that you will finish this book thinking more highly of humility. My hope is that you will finish it seeing Christ more clearly, admiring Him more deeply, trusting Him more completely, and worshiping Him more joyfully. Because when Christ is seen most clearly, pride begins to lose its grip. Humility becomes the quiet and joyful response of hearts that have discovered the One who alone is worthy of all glory, honor, and praise. From Eden to Revelation, discover how pride divides us from God, how Christ reveals true humility, and why it changes everything. This item is printed on demand.
