The premise of this book is that God is love. That is the most
complete and trustworthy definition of His being. Everything that
God is, is love. Everything that God does comes from love. If
believers are to be like Him they also need to understand and
become love. That's what this book sets out to do -- explain what
love really is and help believers gain that love for themselves.
All the aspects of love are covered and the various chapters
encourage believers to develop love in their own lives so that they
can become living expressions of a loving God. Relationships are
the key to doing that and the author shows how love grows from
interacting with others. Simply written and easy to understand,
this book will give any believer insights into knowing God and
becoming like Him.
This book explores the theme that God is more interested in why we
do things than in what we do. The motives and attitudes behind what
we do are far more important to Him than the actual actions. What
we do may appear completely right, but why we do that may be
completely wrong. The book studies the renewing of the heart and
mind the places where motives and attitudes dwell] so that we can
think and feel as God does. It goes on to look at how we develop
the right attitude that incorporates servant-hood, humility, and
obedience. The final section covers the subject of partnership with
Jesus Christ. Headship, submission, and a "gentle and quiet spirit"
form the heart of this section and we discover the most precious
thing in God's sight. The content contains simple and easy to
understand truths that any believer can apply to their personal
faith.
In this book the author takes a fresh and innovative look at the
old subject of sin. The first section looks at basic attitudes and
what was lost when men fell into sin - fellowship, likeness, and
partnership. It goes on to show that these are the things God wants
to restore to us. The second section looks at the process God uses
to bring us into those things. The reconciliation process starts at
our conversion, but is meant to continue throughout our earthly
life. The third section sets out to redefine sin. Sin is no longer
connected to the Law which has been destroyed. The author explores
a new way to reveal the righteousness given to us by God and looks
at how we change to become like Him. The fourth section studies the
importance of embracing truth and how that sets us free from old
ways and the final section looks at the importance of becoming
mature believers. This book is not a theological treatise. It is
more like a hands-on manual for dealing with the remnants of sin
left in our lives after conversion. Some of the contents will be
controversial, but the author trusts that anyone reading the book
will weigh and test the truths it contains and judge the truth of
its contents for themselves.
