Temptations, Trials and Tests by Alexander Agyemang Pdf

ABOUT THE BOOKThis book has been written to demystify the occurrence of temptation trial and test in a Christian's life. It is to dispel the notion that only the immature are tested or tempted. A one man of God once said: every level and its devil. Every level and the sophistication of the traps, schemes and weapons the devil employs to get as to be less effective Christians or backslidden ones. This book is therefore simple enough for the new convert and in-depth enough for the matured Christian who have also discipled others to be good Christians.Trials and tests though worrying or distressing are often used of the Lord to prepare us for a higher calling or ministry. God is a king and so needs to be sure his servants are top quality hence the many trials and tests that come our way. Only vessels which are made unto honour are thoroughly tested because they are required to stand the test of time.This book will teach you to understand that there is nothing like an easy test, trial or temptation. However, each one is not more than your strength can bear but if not careful can lead you to sin. This book will teach you that all aspects of our being are tempted, tested and tried in our walk with the lord. You will also learn that each person's resistance varies depending on what temptation, trial or test he or she is going through. Therefore any temptations or test is standard to your maturity and can therefore floor you easily if approached with pride.As you move up in maturity your temptation become more mental and as you move even higher of things of the heart. Your tests or trials become more relationship or ego based as you mature. Many things will happened to test loyalty, humility and integrity. But many fall at these heart or mental based temptations or tests as founding bishops, associate pastors, and spouses or as workers because we think temptation should necessarily be about the works of the flesh.This book will also talk about the consequences of failing to stand during temptations, trials or tests. As we fail a temptations more temptations are introduced till we fall so low that we do things which even shock us upon sober reflections. Because as you fail temptations of the heart, you are then tempted on the mind and when you fail that you are then tempted on the flesh. All these can happen in an hour. When you face a trial or test it is often repeated till you pass it. Hence people having the same troubles over and over again in many forms. No human being can escape temptation, trial or test because our body is not saved and our soul is only regenerated (i.e. it has been given the opportunity to be good) only the spirit is born again in every Christian. Most victories are won in the mind and in prayer. The Christian therefore needs to work on his or mind with prayer, the word and fasting to be steadfast in all things. Again this book will teach you the benefits of enduring temptations, trials and tests. And show you dear reader, that without contradiction only those who stand to the end will be saved.The AuthorABOUT THE AUTHORAlexander Gyimah Agyeman is teacher of the word with unique insights into scriptures.

Testing and Temptations by Thomas Murosky Ph. D. Pdf

Our America is one where many Christians do not live life like Christ nor do they read the Bible. The average American Christian is not engaged in service and gives less to the cause of Christ than they do for their entertainment. As part of the church, we need to be walking like Christ and encouraging others. Testing and Temptations will guide you through living for Christ in the midst of trials in your life. We all experience many trials that can be either tests or temptations, but little regard is ever given to what these words mean. Have you ever thought about the concepts behind testing and temptations or what role they may play in your life? While listening in on a sermon and constantly hearing the pastor fumble over test and tempt, the concept behind the book Testing and Temptations was born. In this book, we will examine the differences between tests and temptations and examine four key principles of Testing and Temptations: The Source of the Trial The Method the Trial Works in Us Where the Trial Leads Us The Intention behind the Trial Once we understand how Testing and Temptations are applied in our lives, we will be in a key position to understand how we can leverage our trials in order to grow closer to Christ. Thomas Murosky outlines simple steps to grow closer to God and live a more holy life, dedicated to the service of God.

Tempted and Tried by Russell Moore Pdf

Although temptation is a common and well-acknowledged part of the human experience, few realize the truth behind temptation and fewer still know how to defeat it. Tempted and Tried will not reassure Christians by claiming that temptation is less powerful or less prevalent than it is; instead, it will prepare believers for battle by telling the truth about the cosmic war that is raging. Moore shows that the temptation of every Christian is part of a broader conspiracy against God, a conspiracy that confronts everyone who shares the flesh of Jesus through human birth and especially confronts those who share the Spirit of Christ through the new birth of redemption. Moore walks readers through the Devil’s ancient strategies for temptation revealed in Jesus’ wilderness testing. Moore considers how those strategies might appear in a contemporary context and points readers to a way of escape. Tempted and Tried will remind Christians that temptation must be understood in terms of warfare, encouraging them with the truth that victory has already been secured through the triumph of Christ.

The Jesus Principles by Joseph Mattera Pdf

If your influence only lasts as long as you do, you failed. This book will help you reach your full potential, inspire greatness in your spouse, children, and friends, and leave a legacy that lasts beyond your lifetime. True influence should increase through the lives of those you have poured into, even after you pass away. Our greatest example of this is Jesus. His followers did greater works after He left them. Jesus never wrote a book or traveled outside of Israel, but He was able to use a band of eleven followers to create the largest, most influential movement the world has ever seen. Jesus had no servants, yet they called Him Master. He had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. He had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today. In The Jesus Principles, Joseph Mattera helps you unleash greatness in yourself, but even more importantly, in your circle of influence—your spouse, children, friends, and family. Following Jesus’ example, you will be empowered to leave a legacy of helping others fulfill their own potential so that after you have passed, you are still speaking! Become part of a great cloud of witnesses who help to unleash human potential in one another. The four Gospels are not only compilations of important moral and spiritual sayings, but they also contain principles that can enable us to move from potential to fulfillment of purpose.

The Master's Mind by Lance Hahn Pdf

God Wants to Help You Overcome Your Greatest Battle of All What we think and believe determines who we are. If that’s so, then why are we so insecure, defensive, lonely, empty, fearful, depressed, self-absorbed, dysfunctional, angry and confused? We are a mess. But that’s not what God has in mind for us. In fact, the Master has hope, strength, beauty, joy, love, creativity, freedom, power, peace, patience, goodness, laughter, organization, effectiveness and purpose for us. So, what went wrong? We lost our identity in our sin. We’ve become unanchored, tossed about on the sea of a million influences, none of which is our Master’s heart or mind. Between the world, the flesh and the devil, we don’t know what to think and therefore our lives are filled with hurt, pain and regret. Someone is running the show in our minds and it’s not us, at least not the real us, nor the real owner. Jesus is not okay with this. He died to save us from our sins and set us free. He made a way for our souls to be rescued from our enemies. He bought the territory of our minds and planted His flag of holy ground. It’s time for us to get angry enough to take back control of our minds, to master them and bring them back in alignment with the Master’s will. It’s time to return to The Master’s Mind.

After 50 Years of Ministry by Bob Russell Pdf

“If I had my entire life to live over, I’d choose to be a preacher again. It’s been extremely rewarding and gratifying. But I could do ministry a lot better if given a second try. As I look back on my forty years at Southeast Christian Church in Louisville, KY, I wish I had a mulligan. This book lists seven things I’d do differently and seven I’d do about the same. They are written in hopes they’ll be a source of encouragement for those growing weary and losing heart. I pray my observations will inspire others to conclude, ‘If he can do it, I can, too.’ In this book I share both the joys and sorrows of my ministry, both the successes and failures. I’m going to be as transparent as possible in hopes that it will encourage ministers to stand firm in the faith and be faithful unto death. If just one minister is motivated to pick up the sword of the Spirit and re-enter the battle, it will be well worth the effort.” — Bob Russell

The Sacredness of Questioning Everything by David Dark Pdf

The freedom to question—asking and being asked—is an indispensable and sacred practice that is absolutely vital to the health of our communities.According to author David Dark, when religion won’t tolerate questions, objections, or differences of opinion, and when it only brings to the table threats of excommunication, violence, and hellfire, it does not allow people to discover for themselves what they truly believe.The God of the Bible not only encourages questions; the God of the Bible demands them. If that were not so, we wouldn’t live in a world of such rich, God-given complexity in which wide-eyed wonder is part and parcel of the human condition. Dark contends that it’s OK to question life, the Bible, faith, the media, emotions, language, government—everything. God has nothing to hide. And neither should people of faith.The Sacredness of Questioning offers a wide-ranging, insightful, and often entertaining discussion that draws on a variety of sources, including religious texts and popular culture. It is a book that readers will likely cherish—and recommend—for years to come.

Discipleship Defined by Eric Russ Pdf

"DON'T read this book if you want to remain comfortable! Eric challenges us to consider what Biblical discipleship looks like based on what Jesus did. Eric writes this book with the integrity of a man who is not merely theorizing about the way things ought to be, rather he is describing what is actually happening as he builds Biblical disciples in the context of the inner city. This book is soundly Biblical, challenging and practical. This book is about building disciples not programs." Roger Hershey, Campus Crusade For Christ "It is a joy to highly commend to all Discipleship Defined, for it is exactly the prescription that is needed for the Church to regain much of our lost effectiveness. "Discipleship Defined" has carefully described, yet without programming it into a rigid system, how to go about this challenging task." Walter C. Kaiser, Jr., President Emeritus Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary "Eric Russ gives us some very straight forward thinking about discipleship, a topic widely misunderstood and undervalued. Moving away from piety-driven discipleship, Russ points us toward a holistic, Christ-centered way of following Jesus." Jonathan Dodson, Lead Pastor Austin City Life, Austin, TX. "Eric has a healthy obsession about strong discipleship, and it shows in a gracious way in this guidebook for muscular commitment. Can you be obsessed and still have a gracious spirit? Eric does, and so does this book!" Knute Larson, Senior Pastor The Chapel, Akron, OH (1983-2009) Eric Russ is lead pastor of Mack Avenue Community Church in Detroit, Michigan. He is married to Sara and has four children. For more information visit www.discipleshipdefined.com or www.mackave.com.

Your Faith Will Be Tried and Tested! by R. Michael Baldock Pdf

It does not matter where you are at in your walk with God, you with be faced with some kind of trial, test or temptation. The good news is, God has made a way for the believer to make it through every trial, and temptation. "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer: I have overcome the world." John 16:33 "There hath no temptation (trial or test) taken you but such is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." 1 Corinthians 10:13 There are many important factors involved in this process that every believer will face. In the following pages we are going to address these factors along with the process. There is one very important key to keep in mind. It is important to distinguish the origin of the testing. Keep in mind, God never tempts any man (believer) with evil. Any and all temptations that draws man to do evil and or sin, is orchestrated by Satan and his minions! The real question is, 'Why?' Why is it necessary for the believer to face this kind of tests? We are going to answer that question, along with some others within the following pages. That being said, I do not pretend that this book is an exhaustive study on this subject. However, we will investigate different levels of trials, tests and temptations.

With the Master Before the Mirror of God's Word by Susan Heck Pdf

"With the Master Before the Mirror of God's Word is a women's Bible Study on 1st John. The book of First John is a letter of self-examination to see if you are in the faith and living the example of the life of Christ. 1 John 2:1: ""My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous (1 John 2:1). The tone is tender in this book as the Apostle John expresses love and concern to his readers, using that phrase, ""little children"" seven times. As we look in the mirror of God's Word we are to examine our hearts closely and we will see that we need to change!"
