Not your ordinary Christian inspirational book. If you feel something is missing in your Christian life, and you cannot put your finger on it. This book may have the remedy. Everything we need comes to us through the atonement of Jesus. Sincere Christians are not tapping into all Jesus obtained for us. Sincere Christians are missing vital truths, even though they are clearly delineated in the Word of God. Sincere Christians are not receiving the fulness of their true identity in Christ. The good things have come - Christian living, thinking makes it so - Living in the eternal fourth dimension - Say no to negative Christianity - Has Bible study become an excuse - What does 'take away sins' mean - The last verses of Mark - The legitimate Christian life - The authors experience with wrong teaching as a new Christian - A ready made holy highway - What does God want me to do - are some of the topics covered. God's intention through the atonement of Jesus, was a dynamic life for every believer. A successful life for every believer. A satisfying life for every believer. It is there in the Word waiting to be believed and received.
