He First Loved Us consists of twelve lessons that reveal Gods love for us. The titled is taken from 1 John 4:19, We love because he first loved us. We first have to give love to receive a response of love, and that is exactly what God did by sacrificing his son, Christ Jesus, for our sins. When we open our hearts to receive Christ as our Savior, his love will change us forever. His love brings us peace, joy, helps us in all our relationships, and brings us eternal life. Satans goal is to keep everyone away from God, and he does this by filling our minds with lies about God and lies about the Christian life. He puts fear in our hearts so we tend to hide from the Lord just as Adam and Eve did after disobeying God, Genesis 3:9-10). This book was written to reveal the truth about God and his perfect love for us. As you read and study each lesson, open your mind for understanding and your heart for the truth. The Bible says this about Satan, When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies, (John 8:44). And the Bible says, Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free, (John 8:32). Let Gods love set you free from fear, anxiety, worry, and all those negative emotions, for the word says, Perfect love cast out fear, (1 John 4:18). Christ said The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full, (John 10:10). Fill your heart with Gods love and live life to the full.

Considering Christ and the Comforter Since the days he shook the pulpits of Victorian London with Christ-centered passion, each succeeding generation seems to discover Charles Spurgeon anew. And this splendid collection is the ideal place to start. Featuring stirring sermons on the birth of Jesus, on his astounding love, and on his promised second coming--as well as comforting meditations on the work of the Holy Spirit--it offers over 40 homiletic gems from the Prince of Preachers. In sermons as timeless as their topics, Spurgeon combines keen intellect, scriptural truth, and a zeal for making God known to a world in darkness. With insightful truths gleaming from every page, readers will find devotional treasure whenever they sample Spurgeon's gifted exposition--and will be drawn closer to the God who came, who will come again, and who sends his Spirit as a promise of his presence.

In this volume, which concludes John W. Rettig's translation of St. Augustine's Tractates on the Gospel of John, Augustine applies his keen insight and powers of rhetoric to the sacred text, drawing the audience into an intimate contemplation of Jesus through the course of his Passion, Death, and Resurrection.

Everyone who reads the Bible must admit that it tells us to do things that we never have done and cannot do in our fleshly bodies. One reason is that God our Creator is telling us what He wants us to be and do as created in His image and likeness. Our purpose is in our image and likeness of God our Creator, not like the dust of the ground or the flesh of our parents. Most children dont know that they are created in the image and likeness of God, and their parents have not asked God for His spirit for their children so they can be taught this vital truth. The reason parents dont ask God for His spirit for their children is because they dont recognize the need for Him. There are several things mankind cannot do in the flesh, and they must recognize their origin in the image and likeness of God. Mankind must recognize being in the image and likeness of God to, first, love God with all their being and love his neighbors as himself; second, to obey God and his parents as required in Gods word; third, to trust God with all his heart; fourth, to worship God in spirit and in truth; and fifth, to glorify God in his body and spirit, which are God. The devil does not want mankind to know that he is created in the image and likeness of God because man will always defeat Satan and fulfill God's will.

Promises You Can Stand On Through Thick and Thin The Bible is filled with hundreds of what the apostle Peter called "exceeding great and precious promises": definite, explicit declarations God has made that you can count on. In All the Promises of the Bible, Dr. Herbert Lockyer discusses the nature of God’s promises - their substance, simplicity, surety, source, security, scope. Lockyer’s in-depth look at the scope of God’s promises arranges them in categories that cover the full array of human concerns, from the spiritual to the material and the corporate to the personal. As you come to understand God’s promises and how they apply to every aspect of your life, you’ll gain a trust in God that will sustain you through the worst of times and be your source of rejoicing in the best.
