HOW TO SELECT A BIBLE Here are four helpful guidelines to use when making your decision. 1. Look for a Recent Publication Date. Choose a translation that was made or revised within the last ten years. 1 Newer translations will have taken advantage of the latest insights into Bible backgrounds—be they historical, archaeological, or WHAT IS THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS? The Gospel of Thomas consists of a brief prologue followed by 114 sayings of Jesus. Noticeably absent from the gospel are birth accounts, travel chronicles, miracle stories, and any narrative of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. If you carefully read the Gospel of Thomas against the four New Testament Gospels, roughly halfof the
IS THERE PROOF OF HEAVEN AND AN AFTERLIFE? Most simply, heaven is where God lives. This doesn’t mean God is absent elsewhere; in fact, Scripture makes it clear that he’s present everywhere. 6 But heaven is the place where his presence uniquely dwells. 7 It’s the place of our treasure, 8 our citizenship, 9 our inheritance, 10 and our hope. 11. Perhaps you’ve noticed I keep using OLD VS. NEW TESTAMENT: A TALE OF TWO GODS? Marcion concluded that the Old Testament god was a “demiurge” who created the material universe, a mere tribal god of the Jewish people, while Jesus preached of a God marked by compassion, love, and mercy. 4 Marcion wrote his Antitheses, in which he contrasts these two beings.Although some early Christians found Marcion’s arguments compelling, his teachings were rejected by the vastWHAT IS PRAYER?
Prayer Is Communication. Ask a dozen people, “What is prayer?” and you will likely receive a dozen different answers. “It’s talking to God,” one person might say. Another might respond: “It’s saying the Our Father or the Hail Mary.”. Some might say prayer is asking a higher power for what you want or need. WHAT IS CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE? The Covenant of Marriage. Christians approach marriage as a covenant, a relationship based on promises and commitment, not just feelings—though love is most certainly involved. 14. The concept of marriage as a covenant is rooted in the Hebrew faith, and early Christians preserved the belief as well. 15 God’s covenant withIsrael was founded

HOW TO SELECT A BIBLE Be sure to distinguish between a new or significantly revised publication and simply a reprint of an old translation. One Bible in particular is noteworthy in this regard: the NIV’s Archaeological Study Bible (Grand Rapids, MI: Zondervan, 2003) contains not theological but mainly, as the title suggests, archaeological (historical and cultural) background information.

HOW TO LOVE GOD
Love with Passion and Purpose. God has a single expectation for a relationship with you. He spells out his desire in the Bible: “And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” 2. He makes it very clear that he wants “all” of you. THE MIRACLES OF JESUS AND MODERN MIRACLES Others believe that God still works miracles in the world today. No matter their view of contemporary miracles, Christians believe that while Jesus no longer walks the earth, his death and miraculous resurrection paved the way for the release of the Holy Spirit into the world. As a result, God’s power is available and at work against the OLD VS. NEW TESTAMENT: A TALE OF TWO GODS?

The whole goal of Jesus’ life was to carry out the will of God the Father —to be a servant of God. He could do this because he intimately knew the Father's heart. 4.

STARTING A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD Uh, the church, when it's working properly, gives people a tangible encounter of what it feels like to be loved by Jesus, and so you get the richness of that community. That's a part of it. It's messy as is any relationship, but it's rich, and it's completely worth it. Copy and paste the code below into your website.IS THERE A HELL?

DOES JESUS LOVE GAY PEOPLE? And, uh, I think if you have, like, a son or a daughter, or a brother or a sister that told you they were gay, I think it'd cause you to wrestle a little bit more with your theology and about how you say things so strongly. I think it'd actually cause you to be more human and, and to be loving. So for me, what I've reconciled is that Jesus BIBLICAL PROPHECY: 4 VIEWS OF THE END TIMES God will bring about a new heavens and a new earth—a purified and restored creation. 4 This is heaven; this is the eternal state. No more sin, no more suffering, no more death. Paradise has been regained. Believers will once again enjoy perfect, unbroken fellowshipwith God.
HOW TO TRUST IN GOD
Trust is the assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something. In order to form an assured reliance on someone, that person must prove themselves to us through experiences over time. Trusting God works much the same way. When we first hear of God, we’re not sure that he’s being truthful about himself. WHAT BIBLICAL PROPHECIES PREDICTED JESUS? Zechariah declared that if the shepherd is struck, the sheep would scatter. 25 In Matthew 26:31, Jesus says to his disciples that on that night (the night of his arrest), “you will all fall away on account of me,” just as it was recorded in Scripture regarding the sheep. Indeed, after Jesus’ arrest “all the disciples deserted him and WHAT IS HEAVEN LIKE? 1. Life on a new earth will have no sin, sorrow, pain, or death. As a glimpse of what this will be like, the apostle John wrote of the redeemed earth: “‘ will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” 5. WHAT IS THE GOSPEL OF THOMAS? The Gospel of Thomas consists of a brief prologue followed by 114 sayings of Jesus. Noticeably absent from the gospel are birth accounts, travel chronicles, miracle stories, and any narrative of Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. If you carefully read the Gospel of Thomas against the four New Testament Gospels, roughly halfof the
HOW TO SELECT A BIBLE Here are four helpful guidelines to use when making your decision. 1. Look for a Recent Publication Date. Choose a translation that was made or revised within the last ten years. 1 Newer translations will have taken advantage of the latest insights into Bible backgrounds—be they historical, archaeological, or PULSE OF THE WORLD ON GOD Let me put it this way— I would like, I'd like to think that God is real, for one reason or the other. I don't believe in God because the idea that an omniscient, loving being would judge me, who is mortal and ignorant and tiny for all eternity, based on a few years' experience, I find to be rather a cruel thought. WHAT IS CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE? The Covenant of Marriage. Christians approach marriage as a covenant, a relationship based on promises and commitment, not just feelings—though love is most certainly involved. 14. The concept of marriage as a covenant is rooted in the Hebrew faith, and early Christians preserved the belief as well. 15 God’s covenant withIsrael was founded
OLD VS. NEW TESTAMENT: A TALE OF TWO GODS? Marcion concluded that the Old Testament god was a “demiurge” who created the material universe, a mere tribal god of the Jewish people, while Jesus preached of a God marked by compassion, love, and mercy. 4 Marcion wrote his Antitheses, in which he contrasts these two beings.Although some early Christians found Marcion’s arguments compelling, his teachings were rejected by the vast HOW DO I KNOW I HAVE VALUE AND WORTH? Though we were unworthy, Jesus made us worthy by providing a system through which we can take into ourselves the very holiness of Christ and have a personal relationship with God.

Love with Passion and Purpose. God has a single expectation for a relationship with you. He spells out his desire in the Bible: “And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” 2. He makes it very clear that he wants “all” of you.EXPLORING GOD
It's the God who is in pursuit of you, and to explore him is basically to relent, to abandon yourself. Actually, I think C.S. Lewis described it that way. He said that, uh, coming to God for him was like an unbuckling— is the way he described it. It's like he unbuckled himself and let himself fall into the arms of God. EVIDENCE THAT CHRISTIANITY AND JESUS ARE TRUE Well, starting with the historicity of Jesus and whether or not he actually existed, I think scholars have pretty much, um, settled that, where if you ask just about any scholar out there, he'll tell you he did exist.

TEN TEACHINGS OF THE JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES 2. The Trinity. The key teaching that separates the Jehovah’s Witnesses from orthodox Christianity is the Trinity.

IS GOD PERSONAL?
The Trinity and the incarnation are exclusive to Christianity—and both are personal concepts, indeed. 1. The God Who Is Never Lonely. The triune God that Christians worship is three distinct persons in one being, revealed in history and in the pages of the Bible as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.HOW TO TRUST IN GOD

Packer wrote, “evangelism is the enterprise of love.” 15. We tell people about Jesus because we want them to know him. We tell people how their relationship with God can be restored because we want it to be restored. IS THERE PROOF OF HEAVEN AND AN AFTERLIFE? Most simply, heaven is where God lives. This doesn’t mean God is absent elsewhere; in fact, Scripture makes it clear that he’s present everywhere. 6 But heaven is the place where his presence uniquely dwells. 7 It’s the place of our treasure, 8 our citizenship, 9 our inheritance, 10 and our hope. 11.
