How Should We Then Live?
Many churches today have become ineffective to the kingdom of God because they no longer obey the mandate from our Lord, Jesus Christ. While many churches are boasting about numbers and membership, the actual purpose of the Christian church, making disciples, seems to have gotten lost or overlooked. Using illustrations and down-to-earth language, Jay Leach unlocks practical principles that illustrate the growth of a disciple from rebirth to maturity. Not only will we enjoy eternal life in the future, but we will enjoy eternal life here and now. How? By knowing our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In the Bible, knowing carries with it the connotation of intimacy. To enjoy eternal life now, we m...
Grace That Saves
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? True Christianity is under siege in America today! Satan has spread two of the most evil deceptions in his arsenal, secular humanism [No God] in our society and institutions and religious Christianity [No -- Spirit] in the churches. Both deny Christs finished work of grace (divine favor). Things are looking bleak to many people seeking reality! They realize that Satan and his kingdom of darkness are behind Americas chaotic world systems. Notice, our world of politics, world of social action and justice, world of education, world of finances, world of marriage and the family, world of sports, even the world of weather are distorted and corrupted. For the past century, we ...
Behold the Man
In the midst of all the confusion, despair, and destruction of moral truth, many people ask these questions: Where is Jesus Christ? Where are his foundational institutions in the world? How does he interface with the many facades and problems of society in this twenty-first century? In Behold the Man, author Jay R. Leach shows that Jesus Christ is at work today exactly as he was during his lifetime as a man on earth two thousand years ago. Through scriptural examples, stories, and anecdotes, Leach describes how Jesus carries out the same loving and caring, reconciliatory, eternal plan of God just as he did through a physical body. Leach teaches that Jesus now works through a multifaceted corporate body known as the church, whose ministry is the same humanity Jesus attended to, experiencing the same issues, attitudes, and problems. Behold the Man communicates that Jesus is among mankind today incarnate in ordinary Christian men, women, girls, and boysenergizing our spirits, imparting his truth into our hearts, infusing resurrection power in us, and working his purpose through us in the world.
Is There Not a Cause?
THE GREAT COMMISSION IS NOT OPTIONAL! Research shows that the unchurched, saved or unsaved are not staying away from church because they think it is boring or not relevant. Their lack of confidence isnt directed against God and the Bible; but it is with the church and its leaders. People dont want to experience church. They want to experience Gods presence. Today you cant get away with just talking about what the Bible says. The church today must see its mission as one of reflecting Gods holiness, revealing Gods glory, and witnessing to the reality of Jesus Christ. The early church did so by demonstrating sacrificial love, both toward those within the church and those on the outside. Likewise, the risen Christ came to transform us into a loving, compassionate people, but not through a political agenda. His strategy gives the individual a new birth, a new spirit, a new nature, a resurrection life, and the death of self and selfishness. There is a cause! Believers are here, Jesus said, to do greater things than these (see John 14:12). This is the calling of the church.
Narrow Is the Way
THE TRUE CHURCHS FINEST HOUR! In America today, we are living through the spiritual, social, moral, philosophical, economic, political and personal shifts that have brought down mighty empires and nations in the past. The pseudo change agents behind the shifts are working tirelessly in our society and culture to bring down America. Many believe the church [Christs earthly representative] is facing its darkest hour. However, church history has proven from ancient times what is considered the darkest hour for the church has proven to be the true churchs finest hour. The good news is the nerve-wracking uncertainties of our postmodern people, their philosophers and false teachers about the futur...
Congressional Record
The Congressional Record is the official record of the proceedings and debates of the United States Congress. It is published daily when Congress is in session. The Congressional Record began publication in 1873. Debates for sessions prior to 1873 are recorded in The Debates and Proceedings in the Congress of the United States (1789-1824), the Register of Debates in Congress (1824-1837), and the Congressional Globe (1833-1873)
According to Pattern
WHAT SATAN CANNOT CONQUER – HE CONTAMINATES! Many churches today are blatantly disobedient in carrying out the Great Commission as given to us by our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Himself. Therefore, they provide and incorrect and ineffective witness for the kingdom mission to the world. The Commission mandates that New Testament churches everywhere, “make disciples.” Most churches “baptize them” but neglect to “teach them to obey all things” that He has commanded. Neglect of this vital component only produces more biblically illiterate and confused Christians. Lacking the knowledge of the truth, vulnerable Christians are succumbing in great numbers to the secular, atheistic agenda, aberrant doctrine, and blatant heresy. The immediate prioritizing and reinstitution of true Christian theological education, pastoral training, and leadership development are crucial to correctly grow Christians into spiritually and biblically mature disciples [according to pattern].
A Light Unto My Path
Many congregations and church leaders are faced with the collapse of the institutional church culture in America. A great number of them have retreated inside their four walls and created church activities to replace their Christ-given mission to make disciples, and thereby extending His kingdom on earth thy kingdom come. Abandoning their mission means they have abandoned their real identity and reason for existence. Others have gone to the other extreme by selling out to the culture. Their worship service is a form of entertainment with the objective to feel good and be happy. Both choices have turned off many saved people, and they have left the church. In 1998, a Barna poll reflected that 20 million born-again Christians had withdrawn their membership. Todays poll shows an increase to 115,000 million. Many are out there striving to reboost the churchs lost mission to make disciples and thy kingdom come. God has not changed His mind!
