How do we see the light of God? How does seeing the light of God affect the way we live? The Scriptures in this study use images o flight and vision to talk about encounters with God. The Scriptures show that these encounters had a powerful effect on the lives of the biblical characters. The images of light communicate God's life-canging power, guidance, and revelation as well as the response of the biblical characters as their knowledge and vision of God becomes clearer. You will explore the Scriptures and the images of light in order to discover ways you might live in God's light and ways you might reflect God's light to others.

Living in the Light of God's Love by Mari Keisling Pdf
Abiding may sound passive and inactive, but it is the active process of staying-staying close to Jesus, focusing on Him, walking with Him, and living in His light. If walking as He did is how our claim to live in Him is realized, then we need to know what He did that we should be doing as well. Jesus experienced fellowship with His disciples, obeyed His heavenly Father, was humble to the point of death, grew in wisdom and the knowledge of Scripture, and prayed always. God calls each of us to different tasks, places, and purposes, but one thing is consistent for all of us: we can't do any of it or go anywhere without Him. Jesus had His unique purpose in this world as do we, and so just like Him we need to remain in the Father. His life was a living sacrifice, and it is our spiritual act of worship to live like Him. As we step into God's light, it will shine truth on our lives-truth that is sometimes hard to recognize, hard to acknowledge, and hard to live out. But as we learn to live in His light, He gives us clarity, understanding and transforms us from the inside out. We learn to walk in His light shining it wherever we go. Why? God loves the whole world, and He loves you. Everything He calls us to do according to His purpose is to show His love to the world and bring glory to Himself. As you work through the disciplines of fellowship, obedience, humility, meditation, prayer, and worship, you will learn how to draw close to the Father, follow the example of Jesus, and shine His light bright for all to see.
Money, sex, and power. The world tends to worship them. Christians are often suspicious of them, And yet God made us to enjoy them. Discover how to keep these three dangerous opportunities in the orbits that they were designed for, experiencing them in a way that satisfies you, serves the world, and glorifies God. This fresh, refreshing book will wake you up to the blazing glory of Christ, and inspire you to make him the gravitational center of your life. And when that happens, everything changes. Book jacket.
Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.
This book was inspired by the book of John, the first chapter. In the beginning the word already existed. The word was with God and the word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. My eyes have been opened to these verses by the light of Christ penetrating into my soul leading me to see and understand the true meaning of life. Everything there is has a word attached to it. When we can take time to slow down with understanding and, yes, even break words down a little more with acronyms, the power of those words can speak life to ourselves and to others. When driving down a road, we have become accustomed to pushing on gas or the brake pedal as needed by our sight. In life, we can do the same thing with our thinking whether good or bad to steer us away from disaster or to find peace. If we only take the time and affiliate our words with knowledge just like slamming on our brakes when a kid runs out in front of us. My book will teach you how to find peace that turns into lasting joy which is surrounded by love. Little things like words put together with roots (acronyms) make our lives stronger. Here are a couple of acronyms just to get you started that have made a life-changing transformation in me: Chaos: Creating hell allowing overwhelming sin. When we act before thinking it through. Grace: GodaEUR(tm)s riches abundantly coming everyday. Now thataEUR(tm)s treasure.

Packer guides us through the riches and depth of the Spirit s work, assesses versions of holiness and the charismatic life, and shows how Christ must always be at the centre of true Spirit-led ministry. A new chapter explores Christian assurance. With abiding relevance and significance, Keep in Step with the Spirit sets forth vital knowledge for healthy and joyous Christian living, through understanding and experience of God the Holy Spirit.

Gospel-Centered Discipleship (Foreword by Matt Chandler) by Jonathan K. Dodson Pdf
A Gospel-Rich, Reproducible Model for Making Disciples as Jesus Intended Biblical discipleship emphasizes encouragement, repentance, and spiritual growth—essential parts of the Christian life. However, well-meaning believers often struggle to follow Jesus, unaware their views are too legalistic, licentious, or individualistic. How can churches and Christians develop a healthy, successful path to disciple-making? In this second edition of Gospel-Centered Discipleship, Jonathan Dodson presents an effective, Spirit-led model for sanctification. Reminding readers that real discipleship is imperfect yet transformational, Dodson encourages Christians to engage more authentically with others as they grow in faith. Drawing from his own failures and successes while following Jesus, Dodson defines discipleship, describes the heart of a disciple, and gives practical guidance for mentor and peer-based discipleship as Jesus intended. Revised and Expanded: Includes three new chapters and new illustrations Applicable: Shows how discipleship can be practical and gospel-centered Theological: Addresses the Holy Spirit's involvement in discipleship Foreword by Matt Chandler: Author of The Explicit Gospel
