Before You Stop Believing (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When Christians find that the things they have been taught in church just don't stand up in real life, many of them start to question if Christianity and the Bible are true. This book is written for them, to give them confidence that God, the Bible and Christianity are absolutely reliable. It investigates nine main teachings the author has identified through conversations with struggling Christians, that do the most damage, with which he also struggled for many years, until eventually, through ongoing reading and study of the Bible, he learned the truths that answered the questions, solved the frustrations, and reignited the passion and the joy of being born again. "Before You Stop Believing" looks at what the entire Bible actually says about the major doctrines that cause so many sincere Christians so much harm: Faith (what it is and what it isn't); Sin & Righteousness; Salvation; Church; Prayer & Fasting (it's not all about getting what YOU want); Blessings & Curses (including the truth about Generational Curses); Money, Giving & Tithing (it's not about giving to get); the Devil & Demons (they don't have the power over the life of a Christian you might have been told they do); and Holiness. As you read this book and see what the scriptures used to support false teachings actually say in context, and in light of the entire Bible, it is hoped you will find yourself experiencing a renewed excitement about your life and your faith because you will stop being disillusioned that God is not doing things He never said He would do, and will start to see Him and Christianity the way He clearly communicates in His Word. Packed with scriptures, this book will be appreciated by those who are genuine about wanting to please God with their lives, and helping others also find solutions to the problems associated with these nine false teachings.

Autorenporträt

Born in England in 1959. Born again in Tasmania Australia in 1986 because a demon appeared in his flat. But having been raised a nominal Christian, Colin was not quick to accept the Christian narrative he had been given even though it did resolve the problem with the evil spirit. So he went on a journey to question and test everything he was hearing and reading about Christianity. This lead him to Bible College where he continued to question. When he was told by the teachers to not ask questions in class any longer, he spent all his spare time in the College library looking there for the answers the teachers were not able to supply. After 5 years of questioning, Colin one day realised he no longer doubted that the Bible was inspired by God, and that everything He says in it is true. That didn't stop Colin asking questions, but at least he found one source in the world he could trust - against which he would continue to test all claimed "truths" including the myriad of Christian denominational and ideological truths. Now having spent most of his life as a Christian he has found a great many answers, but is still testing. Much of the result of this can be found in the abundance of articles Colin has written based on his Bible studies, written to help clarify and galvanised his understanding, but also to be available to other Christians who are having the questions he had. Four of his studies have resulted in books. * Before You Stop Believing (2005) - A look at 9 areas of church doctrines that cause confusion and damage to most Christians - Faith; Sin & Righteousness; Salvation; Church; Prayer & Fasting; Blessings & Curses; Money, Giving & Tithing; The Devil, Demons & Christians; Holy God & Holy People.

(Particularly looks at most of the passages in the New Testament mentioning the Holy Spirit, and delves into the different views about those scriptures to reveal the most likely truths.) * Intentional Marriage Workshop (2022) - A DIY Marriage Workshop to help Christian couples identify and...
