Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The main theme of the ¿I am¿ sayings is salvation through Christ. These sayings promote various aspects of Jesus¿ character and deity and simultaneously show how people could resist the gospel because of religious traditions or ideology. In order words the pride produced by self-righteousness can be a major hindrance to a person¿s salvation. This is because in such instances the individual defines themselves righteous; consequently, the gospel may be seen as an offense to them. Thus the method used to present the Gospel should be one where Christ is the central The Christian faith is not about how much we know. It is not something which we have to learn and understand. It is not about being mindful of a rule book and trying to fit our lives within a rigid structure of laws. Christianity is about turning to Jesus Christ and seeking by our follow him. He desires that we receive him, not simply for what he might give us, but for what he might be for us. Jesus is going to the heart of all human problems. We are beset by questions How can we find meaning in this universe, how can we quiet our troubled souls and find answers to the questions which we face-If we seek the meaning of life.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -I am far from being who I believe God wants me to be. Too often I make choices based on what I want. I value things that have no eternal significance. My attitudes often reveal some ugly truths about myself. There are times when I don¿t think much about my shortcomings; especially when I can focus on the shortcomings of others. But other times I am painfully aware of how far the path to godliness stretches ahead of me.And the tendency at times like that is to commit to trying harder. To care more about others. To work on my attitudes. And to love God more. But no matter how hard I might try, it seems that before I know it I have fallen back into my old ways, and nothing is different apart from being more frustrated than ever with my inability to make any significant change for the better. But then I read this verse, and so many others like it. And I realize that I am not the one most qualified to be attempting a makeover on my life. The one who took me from being an 18 year old looking to enjoy what the world had to offer, and changing me into one who had a desire to be holy; the one who delivered me from the road to destruction, and brought me into his light; and life.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Trials knock at our heart and surround us. Temptations set in, hoping we¿ll feel the pressure. Tough times come right after a moment of joy or small victory.We toss and turn at night, wondering how these things work their way into our thoughts, into our dreams.It starts to feel like we¿re in a batting cage struggling to hit the balls being fired at us. It gets exhausting.This is life in the world. It requires a continuous and active choice to choose God. To keep faith. To say, ¿I¿m sorry.¿ To move ahead in hope rather than despair. It¿s the battle of living by faith.Last week I had to do this over and over again. Unfortunately I allowed temptation to work on my mind and made choices based on emotions, feelings of ¿Who needs this ¿ and more, but I don¿t write that to wallow in defeat. I write that because there is so much hope ahead.Jesus Christ is the good shepherd. When we ask Him into our heart, He showers us with His unconditional love and devotion. He does not leave us. He sees us start over again and again. He sees us struggle with the desire to God. We have nothing to fear.Going by faith is about the free-will choice to trust God and choose His ways and instructions always.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -The last word of the book of Acts in the Greek New Testament is the word akolutos. The word literally means 'unhindered, 'though many translations render it with multiple words. Others move the word from its final position for the sake of syntax. In both cases, I think something is lost in translation. Luke was intentionally making a statement with this last word of his two volume testimony to the life of Jesus Christ. I think he intended readers to pause at the conclusion of his words, leaving us with the provocative thought of a gospel that is unhindered. After the stories of Jesus¿ ministry were told, after recollections of his death and ruminations of his resurrection, after Jesus¿ ascension and the church's beginnings, after all the resistance, disappointment, and surprises along the way, Luke concludes, 'Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ with all confidence, unhindered' (Acts 28:30-31). Through prisons and angry crowds, the book of Acts traces the birth and growth of the early church.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -THE COMING OF JESUS MAKES CONVERSION POSSIBLE 27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. ¿Follow me,¿ Jesus said to him, 28 and Levi got up, left everything and followed him. (Lk 5:27-28)Jesus set out to look for Levi. After Jesus had called Simon, James and John (Lk 5:10), he saw Levi the tax collector sitting by himself, stopped by his booth, and said two words to him: Follow me. In all gospels Levi¿s calling was mentioned, Jesus spoke two forceful words: ¿Follow Me. ¿What was amazing about Jesus¿ call to Levi was that Matthew, Mark, and Luke (Mt 9:9, Mk 2:14) all recorded Jesus¿ two brief words to Levi in the gospels with equal passion, in the same way and at the exact length. Only Peter (John 21:19) and Philip (Jn 1:43) were given this directive, but their response was captured just once in the gospels. Nothing was special about their conversion; they were ordinary people, with normal jobs, receiving equal treatment. Remarkably, the gospels recorded, covered, and highlighted Jesus¿ exclusive claim upon the most tainted member of the apostolic band, Levi the tax-collector.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law who belonged to their sect complained to his disciples, ¿Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and ¿sinners¿ ¿ 31 Jesus answered them, ¿It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.¿ (Luke5:30-32) What Jesus said boiled down to three questions: Who needed a doctor (v 31 ¿It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick¿) Who did Jesus call (v 32a ¿I have not come to call the righteous¿¿) And what was required (32b ¿sinners to repentance¿) Who needs a doctor You don¿t have to be religious, but yoüve got to recognize what your condition is, who can help you, and why you need help. Who is Jesus calling today Not those who have the answers, but those who are looking for answers. What is required Salvation is available to all who are willing to turn from sin and turn to God.Levi had the right approach. Jesus commended and defended him. Like his master, Levi was not bothered by what others thought, what they noticed, and what they said of those who came. Sinners needed the gospel, the opportunity was present, and Jesus had come to save sinners.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Jesus speaks in parables to the assembled crowd, giving them an opportunity to decide how much spiritual truth they want to absorb. The disciples, wanting to learn more, ask Jesus to explain the meaning of the parables He has taught. As Jesus explains these ideas, He demonstrates that a person's spiritual knowledge is based on their willingness to pursue truth. After describing Jesus' teaching in some detail, the Gospel of Mark describes how Jesus calms a storm on the Sea of Galilee Adrift in a violent storm that threatens to swamp and capsize the boat, the disciples look to Jesus. The 'cushion' Jesus is sleeping on may have been a sandbag used for ballast or an extra seat used for passengers. Either way, it wasn't designed for comfort. But Jesus is exhausted. His short ministry has been characterized by crowds of people (Mark 3:7¿10; 4:1¿2), little chance to eat (Mark 3:20), and not much rest (Mark 1:32¿35). Not even a water-logged boat rocked by fierce waves can wake Him up.Is it reasonable for the twelve to be afraid To this point, the twelve have seen Jesus heal physical maladies, cast out demons, teach mobs, and argue with religious leaders. As miraculous as His powers are.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -I. THE SOLITARY VOICE OF FAITH. 'He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High' ¿ how high up that 'secret place' must be; how deep the silence up there; how pure the air! How far above the poisonous mists that cling to the low-lying swamps; how far out of the reach of the arrows or shots of the foeman, is he that dwelleth with God by communion, by constancy of desire, by aspiration, and by clear recognition of the Divine goal of all his work! 'He that dwelleth' thus, 'in the secret place of the Most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty' ¿ and since He is Almighty the long shadow that that great rock casts will shelter him who keeps beneath it from the burning rays of the fiery sunshine, in every ' weary land.' Let me keep myself in touch with God, and I keep myself master of all things, and secure from the evil that is in evil.II. THE GREAT ASSURANCES WHICH ANSWER TO THIS SOLITARY VOICE OF FAITH. Now, is it true, as the psalmist goes on to portray under a double figure of battle and pestilence, which the man who thus trusts is saved from widespread calamities which may be devastating the lines of a community If we look on the surface it is not true.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -THE IMPORTANCE OF OMNIPOTENCE. The doctrine that God is omnipotent, or all-powerful, is, as one philosopher has observed, ¿not a bit of old metaphysical luggage that can be abandoned with relief.¿ Instead, it¿s ¿indispensable for Christianity.¿ After all, God has made many wonderful promises to his people. But if he ¿were not almighty. he might. sincerely promise, but find fulfillment beyond his power.¿So only if God is omnipotent can we confidently bank on his promises. But this is a bit of a two-edged sword.On the one hand, the doctrine of God¿s omnipotence can be very comforting for believers, who are rightly related to God through faith in Jesus Christ. After all, ¿God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble¿ (Psalm 46:1). Whatever problems and difficulties we face in life, our omnipotent God has more than enough power to see us through. If he chooses, he can easily deliver us from fire or water, sword or famine, sickness or disease. And if he lets us go through such things, he can provide all the grace and strength we need to endure. While the suffering of God¿s saints can indeed be great, we must also remember that this life is not the end per se.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Exodus14:10-14 There was no way open to Israel but upward, and thence their deliverance came. We may be in the way of duty, following God, and hastening toward heaven, yet may be troubled on every side. Some cried out unto the Lord; their fear led them to pray, and that was well. God brings us into straits, that he may bring us to our knees. Others cried out against Moses; fear set them murmuring as if God were not still able to work miracles. They quarrel with Moses for bringing them out of Egypt; and so were angry with God for the greatest kindness ever done them; thus gross are the absurdities of unbelief. Moses says, Fear ye not. It is always our duty and interest, when we cannot get out of troubles, yet to get above our fears; let them quicken our prayers and endeavours, but not silence our faith and hope. Stand still, think not to save yourselves either by fighting or flying; wait God's orders, and observe them. Compose yourselves, by confidence in God, into peaceful thoughts of the great salvation God is about to work for you. If God brings his people into straits, he will find a way to bring them out., verse14. Moses said,¿ Fear ye not, stand still, and see God's salvation.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Survival of the fittest' is a phrase that originated from Darwinian evolutionary theory as a way of describing the mechanism of natural selection. The biological concept of fitness is defined as reproductive success. In Darwinian terms the phrase is best understood as 'Survival of the form that will leave the most copies of itself in successive generations. 'Herbert Spencer first used the phrase, after reading Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species, in his Principles of Biology (1864), in which he drew parallels between his own economic theories and Darwin's biological ones: 'This survival of the fittest, which I have here sought to express in mechanical terms, is that which Mr. Darwin has called 'natural selection', or the preservation of favoured races in the struggle for life.' Darwin responded positively to Alfred Russel Wallace's suggestion of using Spencer's new phrase 'survival of the fittest' as an alternative to 'natural selection', and adopted the phrase in The Variation of Animals and Plants under Domestication published in 1868.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -Background of New Jerusalem. The text of Revelation 21: 1-22: 5 is assumed to be part of the traditional canon of Scripture. Thus, there is an assumption of progressive revelation (Genesis to Revelation) and a constancy of 'inspiration' (2 Tim 3:15). Whilst a brief and cursory explanation will be done on certain key elements of the chosen text, the method followed will be far more biblical theological where relevant passages of Scripture are engaged to develop the theological thought, as the text is engaged grammatically, historically and theologically. This will cover comparatively old Testament, New Testament and Apocalyptic passages.the will not be a direct engagement with the millennial traditional models of eschatology. however, the implications for all these views will be obvious to those reading this article from the perspective of any one of the models. The approach will be far more eclectic in nature, allowing the interaction of text and text to create a fresh and challenging perspective through this eschatological subject with its implications for life (2 Peter 3:11).VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 72 pp. Englisch.

We remember his anguish upon the hearing of the rooster crowing, because Jesus had prophesied of these denials. Today, we return to that story, but see the renewal of commitment. In Peter¿s story we are reminded that God loves to give a second chance.Text: After this, Jesus revealed Himself again to His disciples by the Sea of Tiberias. He revealed Himself in this way:2 Simon Peter, Thomas (called ¿Twin¿), Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, Zebedee¿s sons, and two others of His disciples were together.3 ¿I¿m going fishing,¿ Simon Peter said to them.¿We¿re coming with you,¿ they told him. They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.4 When daybreak came, Jesus stood on the shore. However, the disciples did not know it was Jesus.5 ¿Men,¿ Jesus called to them, ¿you don¿t have any fish, do you ¿¿No,¿ they answered.6 ¿Cast the net on the right side of the boat,¿ He told them, ¿and yoüll find some.¿ So they did, and they were unable to haul it in because of the large number of fish.( 7)Therefore the disciple, the one Jesus loved, said to Peter, ¿It is the Lord!¿VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware -To restore a fallen brother we need faith in God which is both bold and humble.Boldness and humility may seem antithetical, but they are not. They comprise the biblical quality of meekness or gentleness. We usually think of meekness as weakness, but biblical meekness is strength under control. A meek person is strong, but submissive to the Lord. He is like a powerful but well-trained horse, which can charge forth into battle, but is so sensitive and submissive that it will stop or turn at the slightest nudge from its master. Such humble boldness is a fruit of the Spirit that marks the godly person. Abram had that kind of bold, humble faith in God. In chapter 13, he humbly yielded to Lot and gave him first choice of the land. When Lot chose the most fertile land and then was taken captive, Abram didn¿t say, ¿It serves him right!¿ He boldly went and rescued Lot. Then he humbly bowed before Melchizedek but boldly resisted the king of Sodom¿s offer. He knew when to be bold and when to yield.1. Bold faith goes to battle to restore a fallen brother (14:1- 16). Preparation is the key to rescue a fallen brother.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 60 pp. Englisch.

This phrase, based on the importance accorded to the intersection of two roads since ancient times, has also been used figuratively just about as long.At a point when a choice must be made; at a point of change. After earning my degree, I'm at a crossroads. I need to figure out which direction my life should take. As a company, we're at a crossroads. We can continue business as usual, or we can take a risk and try to grow.

There are career crossroads, relationship crossroads, financial crossroads, and spiritual crossroads, to name a few. Hardly a day passes that we are not confronted with some decision that may affect that day or week or month, but the choices we make that truly cause a different path for us to take are the ones I want to talk about. When your life is at a crossroad, do you know it¿and how do you know it And how do you make the right choice, will need deep thinking.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 64 pp. Englisch.

(NKJV)An athlete has to get used to many things. He or she has to discipline himself or herself, to hard work, to exercise, to eat right, to show up on time for practices, and to be disciplined all the way around. An athlete also has to get used to loosing, and the feelings of failure, but not defeat. An athlete also has to get used to winning and not dwelling so much in the success that he or she forgets to practice and eat right, and show up on time for practice, and all of those things.Olympic gold-medallist speed skater, Dan Jansen, said 'When people think of me, I would like to be remembered as someone who never gave up. I never lost hope, but more importantly, I skated my best, not only when I won the gold medal, but also those times when I fell or was beaten. Each time it was the same for me; it was the best I had to give.'\*Dan Jansen knew the secret of success here.
