Book excerpt: Christ's divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness. —2 Peter 1:3 Pure Christianity needs no embellishment whatsoever. We find complete sufficiency in Christ and His provision for our needs. But too many Christians have bought in to the notion that all the spiritual resources we gain at the moment of salvation are not adequate to meet the real needs in today's complex world. So they look for something more—an emotionally exciting and self-edifying experience not found in God's Word. This failure to understand the sufficiency of Christ has opened the door to all kinds of worldy influences, causing many modern believers to mix biblical truths with seemingly helpful man-made methods such as mysticism and psychology. As a result, they wallow in a watered-down, pseudo-Christanity that has been drained of its vitality, effectiveness, and security. In this book John MacArthur exposes the main ways Christians have displaced their spiritual resources and explains how to avoid making the same error. It will make you newly aware of how completely God provides—and give you a renewed understanding of what it means to be "complete in Christ."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was said of Martyn Lloyd-Jones that while others preached love, or even preached Christ, Lloyd-Jones PREACHED GOD. These mighty sermons from Isaiah chapter 40 bear this out, and in this they meet on of our greatest needs today- to know our God as he really is. They show that the God of the Bible is not only the great Creator and Judge but the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort who meets us at the point of our depes need. This all-sufficient God has already met and answered all our problems, doubts and difficulties, in the gospel of his Son, Jesus Christ. Those hungering to know God- or to know him better- will find great help here, while those who have already tasted the rich gospel provision in earlier Lloyd-Jones titles on Old Testament themes such as God's Way Not Ours (on Isaiah 1) and Old Testament Evangelistic Sermons- will need little urging to return for more!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our ALL-SUFFICIENT GOD: Beyond Suffering in the Book of Job invites you to lift your eyes higher and higher. See not only the hand of God and what He does, but also the face of God and His character as He reveals Himself in the book of Job. The authors take this often neglected and overlooked book of the Bible, separate it from its usual theme of suffering and show the enduring truths of God's character. Is God in control over all? Is God just? Is God loving? Is God all-knowing and all-wise? Job and his friends grappled with these questions. Like them, what we believe about God shapes our interpretation of God's dealings with us and with others and determines our actions. In the midst of his suffering, all Job had was faith in his God. At times, this God-tested, enduring faith looked rough, crude and raw, yet it endured. Through the experience, God revealed to Job and subsequently to us His attributes of sovereignty, providence, lovingkindness, justice, omniscience and wisdom. This guided, 13-week Bible study will help you appreciate God's worthiness to be loved, trusted, worshiped and served in all circumstances. As you have a fresh encounter with the book of Job, you will be encouraged to develop character like Job's that pleases God. You will learn to speak rightly about God and to benefit from greater intimacy with Him when troubles come. While this guidebook takes care in the areas of hermeneutics and theology, it is also practical for Christian living and personal devotion. It includes a three-act play, background material, word studies and weekly review questions. The first two lessons take the student through the entire book in an overview that gives the big picture and chronology of events. It is suitable for both individual and group studies. Lesson 3 addresses the circumstances surrounding Job's losses. The student is asked to evaluate her own personal losses and her response to adversity in her own life and in the lives of others. Lesson 4 identifies problems related to comforting those in grief. The student will be challenged to assess her beliefs about God's role in suffering and prosperity. She will develop biblical comforting skills. Lesson 5 scrutinizes Job's lifestyle as a God-fearer. The student will become sensitized to upholding God's reputation. She will develop strategies for turning away from temptation and evil. Lessons 6 through 8 highlight some of God's attributes that are displayed in the book of Job. Lesson 6 focuses on God's sovereignty. In studying Job's complaints against God's justice in Lesson 7, the student must consider the justification for any complaint of her own against God's justice. Lesson 8 explores God's dealings with the wicked and the righteous. Lesson 9 explores Job's response to suffering. The student will learn how to respond to God's dealings by trusting Him. Lesson 10 explains the continuity from the Old Testament through the New Testament of God's great salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. The student will write an explanation of Old Testament and New Testament faith and will develop evangelism skills. Lesson 11 gives Elihu's perspective on Job's suffering. The student will learn principles for interpreting suffering from a God-centered perspective. Through an assignment to interview a mature Christian who has endured troubles, she will understand how she can know the Lord more deeply through troubles. Lesson 12 relates God speaking to and restoring Job. This enjoyable climax to Job's trials gives the student an opportunity to see God afresh and to identify how her thoughts have changed through studying the book of Job. The Finale validates the God-centered intent of the study. The section wraps up the answers to the four pivotal questions posed in the Preface that the student is to consider throughout the study.

Book excerpt: The author of Desiring God reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Includes a study guide for individual and small-group use. Isn’t it true—we really don’t know someone until we understand what makes that person happy? And so it is with God! What does bring delight to the happiest Being in the universe? John Piper writes, that it’s only when we know what makes God glad that we’ll know the greatness of His glory. Therefore, we must comprehend “the pleasures of God.” Unlike so much of what is written today, this is not a book about us. It is about the One we were made for—God Himself. In this theological masterpiece—chosen by World Magazine as one of the 20th Century’s top 100 books, John Piper reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Then we will be able to drink deeply—and satisfyingly—from the only well that offers living water. What followers of Jesus need now, more than anything else, is to know and love—behold and embrace—the great, glorious, sovereign, happy God of the Bible. “This is a unique and precious book that everybody should read more than once.” —J.I. PACKER, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia

Book excerpt: "One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple." -Psalm 27:4, KJV The Psalms are treasures from those who earnestly sought the face of God. They are honest messages of sorrow, joy, praise, and wisdom from real people who experienced real struggles. In the psalmists' words we see their hearts open before God. In Seeking the Face of God, Martyn Lloyd-Jones unpacks nine passages from the Psalms and weaves them together with the everyday life of the world in which we live. His reflections are practical, powerful, and profound. For those just beginning to study the Psalms as well as those who know them well and wish to consider them from a new angle, this collection of sermons from one of the greatest preachers of the twentieth century will move your mind to greater understanding and your heart to deeper worship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pilgrim Theology is a map for Christians seeking to better understand the core beliefs of their faith. Even though it's the study of God, theology has a reputation for being dry, abstract, and irrelevant for daily living. But theology is a matter of life and death. It affects the way you think, the decisions you make, the way you relate to God and the world. Reformed theologian and professor Michael Horton wrote Pilgrim Theology as a more accessible companion to his award-winning systematic theology The Christian Faith: widely praised for its thorough treatment of the biblical and historical foundations of Christian doctrine. In Pilgrim Theology, his focus is in putting the study of theology into the daily drama of discipleship. Each chapter will orient you toward a clear understanding about: Who God is. What our relationship is to him. And what our faith in Jesus Christ means in our daily walk as well as in the context of the narrative of Scripture and the community of the church. Through accessible chapters on individual doctrines, as well as frequent "Key Distinction" boxes that succinctly explain the differences between important themes, you'll gain an understanding of doctrines that may have sounded like technical seminary terms to you before: justification, sanctification, glorification, union with Christ, and others. You have a working theology already—an existing understanding of God. It's the goal of Pilgrim Theology to help you examine that understanding more closely and have it challenged and strengthened.

Book excerpt: In this series of never-before-published sermons, beloved teacher Martyn Lloyd-Jones walks readers through the early chapters of Genesis. The Gospel in Genesis starts with the fall of man and ends with the call of Abram as it examines portions of chapters 3-12. Along the way Lloyd-Jones talks of serpents and sin, of the Word of God and the Babel of man. But the destination of The Gospel in Genesis is clear: readers will be moved from fig leaves in the garden to faith in the gospel. Thus Lloyd-Jones preaches the gospel of Jesus Christ from the pages of Genesis. These nine sermons will snap nonbelievers out of their apathy toward God and will embolden believers to share the only gospel that offers answers to life's biggest questions.
