Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jealousy. We all have to deal with it--both in ourselves and in others. Jealousy is rooted in our natural fears and insecurities. It has damaged relationships since the time of Cain and Abel, and still does today if we let it. In this wise and compassionate book, R.T.

He shows that it is only when we grasp that it is God we should aim to please that we will be able to recognize and overcome jealousy and, like Jesus, be jealous only for the glory of God.

Download or read book Luminescence, Volume 3 written by C. K. Barrett and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is found in this series unveils an entirely different side of C. K. Barrett, a side one might never have known about if one had knowledge only of his famous commentaries and monographs. Herein lies a goodly selection of Kingsley’s sermons preached largely in small- and medium-sized Methodist churches in the northeast of England, though often elsewhere in England and around the world. Fred Barrett was not the scholar his son was, but on close inspection, one can most definitely see the impact of the father on the son when it came to preaching. It seems right to include as many sermons from both of these men as we can in this series. One thing sorely lacking in much preaching these days is in-depth engagement with both the biblical text and one’s tradition and theology. The sermons in these volumes demonstrate what such preaching can look like. This third volume presents sermons from both the Old Testament and the New Testament.

Download or read book Jealous for You written by Brother Melvin and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-06-03 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jealous for You: An Expose of the Love of God is a concise yet thorough look at the heart of God and his motives that would cause him to so love the world that he would give his only begotten Son to die for it. John 3:16 has been a verse of scripture used so flippantly in this day and age that it is possible that the world has become immune to it, and God himself seems to be detached from it as well. However, it is the design of the thoughts in this survey of the love and person of God to put the attention back where it belongs--on God himself. In this presentation, we discover who is this God that declares that his name is Jealous? What are the key components that has aroused his jealousy to be expressed? Why is man so important to God that he would go to such an extreme to send his only begotten Son to die on the cross of Calvary? How should we examine and evaluate what he has said and done? You should set your mind to be ready to see that which you may not have seen before and understand that which is not easily understood, as we discover why God is Jealous for you. The foundation of the thoughts of this idea of God being jealous for you is what God has said, "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness and let them have dominion" (Gen. 1:26a). The creation of man from God's perspective was good and his conclusion with his desire to make man in his image to be a representation of him on earth was very good. However, because of sin, all that God had purpose for man and through man in creation was drastically destroyed. It had caused God to come to another conclusion that it had repented him that he made man because of the evil imaginations of his heart. The thoughts and judgments of God are decisive and without question as he declares who he is and the immutability of his counsel. God's exclusive right is based upon the absolute truth that he declares about himself, "I am God, and there is none else." There is no one or nothing that has an inherit right to loyalty or allegiance like God. Because of who he is and what he has declared about himself, he validates the framework of his jealousy for his creation. He is jealous for his image, his will, and his glory. Jealous for You has brought together the simplicity and truth of the scriptures, with insights that God has made known about his person to enlighten our understanding about the jealousy of God for you.
