Pure Worship by Matthew Ward Pdf

Baptists are not often thought of as leading theologians and practitioners of worship. But forgotten in history is one crucial fact: the Baptist tradition formed out of a desire to worship God purely. Early Baptists devoted immense energy to questions of worship and drew conclusions of even contemporary value. Through the seismic liturgical shifts of English society in the seventeenth century, worship was both their most galvanizing and disintegrating impulse. As time passed and terminology changed and Baptists shied away from this divisive topic, this emphasis was lost. No one today considers worship a Baptist distinctive. Pure Worship re-creates the fascinating historical context of the early years of the English Baptists. Examining many thousands of manuscript pages, Matthew Ward pieces together an entire theology of worship that not only guided the early Baptists but also attracted the attention of many elements of English Christianity. Baptist thoughts on worship were neither minor nor tangential but the very heart of what distinguished them from the rest of England. Pure Worship offers a complete reenvisioning of what it meant to be an early Baptist and reveals their overwhelming desire to be known as pure worshippers of God.

Awakening Pure Worship by Jeff Deyo Pdf

Find Your Way to Greater Closeness with God Jeff Deyo invites you into a conversation about worship in a book that was written for anyone seeking to experience the Lord in a deeper way. Does Gods presence seem distant? Do you have a friend who has grown numb to the things of God? Have you given up on hearing Gods voice in the way so many authors and preachers talk about? Are you ready to awaken your life to a vibrant, one-on-one relationship with the Father once and for all? This is your moment. Your hope is about to be restored as you consider these questions and more: Are we truly present in Gods presence? Do we encounter songs, artists, and atmospheres without encountering God Himself? What do we do when we lose the emotion that often surrounds worshiping God? Why are so many of us tempted to put ministry for God above intimacy with God? Are we unintentionally worshiping the image of a false god when we cherry-pick easy-to-swallow scriptures about Gods character? Can the good work of serving the poor and moving in the supernatural cause us to miss the one thing? Do we allow potential embarrassment to keep us from loving and worshiping God extravagantly? Shift your perspective on relationship with God from obligation to invitation and rediscover authentic worship that reaches from the secret place to the marketplace.

EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE TRULY CHRISTIAN by Edward D. Andrews Pdf

In "EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE TRULY CHRISTIAN," readers are invited on a profound journey of self-examination, urged to evaluate their lives against the steadfast measure of Scripture. This introspective exploration is designed to answer one of the most significant questions a believer can face: "Am I truly in the faith?" Through a meticulous study that spans 15 chapters, the book confronts readers with the challenging and invigorating process of testing and affirming their faith. Beginning with the very foundation of what constitutes true faith, the book takes the reader through an in-depth analysis of the essential elements that make up the Christian life. The journey unveils the intrinsic relationship between God's Word and our faith, assessing beliefs, convictions, and the manifestation of the Spirit’s fruit in our lives. The author challenges emotionalism and superficial expressions of belief, guiding readers back to the solid ground of biblical doctrine. In an age where love and Christian conduct are often misunderstood, the book offers a clarifying look at how these cornerstones are biblically defined and practically lived out. With chapters delving into the Christian mindset, the role of good works, perseverance through trials, and the sincerity of prayer and worship, the book is both comprehensive and penetrating. It reaffirms the hope of salvation, stressing the significance of living out one’s faith with fear and trembling. Community and fellowship are recognized as the heartbeat of the Christian experience, and the book emphasizes the importance of building each other up in the congregation. Moreover, it calls upon believers to reflect on the genuineness of their walk with God, as seen in their consistency, evangelistic zeal, and unwavering endurance. The final assessment chapters bring the reader to a point of culmination, where the practicalities of living out learned truths are weighed and the enduring fruits of a genuine relationship with God are celebrated. Complete with a bibliography for further study, "EVIDENCE THAT YOU ARE TRULY CHRISTIAN" stands as an essential read for anyone seeking to authentically examine and affirm the reality of their faith. It is a spiritual mirror, a call to align with the unchanging Word of God, and an encouragement to believers to maintain their course with conviction until the very end.

Worship by the Book by Rev. Mark Ashton,R. Kent Hughes,Timothy Keller Pdf

“What is at stake is authenticity. . . . Sooner or later Christians tire of public meetings that are profoundly inauthentic, regardless of how well (or poorly) arranged, directed, performed. We long to meet, corporately, with the living and majestic God and to offer him the praise that is his due.”—D. A. CarsonWorship is a hot topic, but the ways that Christians from different traditions view it vary greatly. What is worship? More important, what does it look like in action, both in our corporate gatherings and in our daily lives? These concerns—the blending of principle and practice—are what Worship by the Book addresses.Cutting through cultural clichés, D. A. Carson, Mark Ashton, Kent Hughes, and Timothy Keller explore, respectively:· Worship Under the Word· Following in Cranmer’s Footsteps· Free Church Worship: The Challenge of Freedom· Reformed Worship in the Global City “This is not a comprehensive theology of worship,” writes Carson. “Still less is it a sociological analysis of current trends or a minister’s manual chockfull of ‘how to’ instructions.” Rather, this book offers pastors, other congregational leaders, and seminary students a thought-provoking biblical theology of worship, followed by a look at how three very different traditions of churchmanship might move from this theological base to a better understanding of corporate worship. Running the gamut from biblical theology to historical assessment all the way to sample service sheets, Worship by the Book shows how local churches in diverse traditions can foster corporate worship that is God-honoring, Word-revering, heartfelt, and historically and culturally informed.

Sparks of Divine Glory: A Practical Study of the Attributes of God by C. Matthew McMahon Pdf

Is there a good reason to study the doctrine of God? Knowing God, or not knowing God, has eternal consequences to it. The Savior came to explain the Father (John 1:18) and he said that eternal life is knowing God and knowing Jesus Christ whom God sent (John 17:3). Such a knowledge must include something more than a mere knowledge of facts. It must show a relationship of those facts, one to another, and how they relate as a whole to the life of the believer. Such a study must show what the spiritual benefits are to the redeemed, which then turns to the spiritual experience they have as they grow in Christ. This volume deals with the application of the knowledge of God, and how the doctrine of God should be a practical, every day consideration, in the life of the redeemed believer. McMahon covers all the revealed Biblical attributes and perfections of God, which also include some not generally considered. He covers that God is incomprehensible, Trinitarian, glorious, a pure spirit, self-sufficient, simple, unified, impassible, immutable, infinite, omnipresent, eternal, invisible, omniscient, all wise, light, truth, free, holy, good, faithful, love, gracious, merciful, longsuffering, sovereign, omnipotent, righteous, just, wrathful, jealous, and eminently beautiful. He ends with a concluding chapter on how the Christian should always be rejoicing in God’s majesty.
