Failure is a Choice

By: Dr John McElhaney

How many people go through life as a failure because they think success is not something they can attain or something people must be born with. Whether you are successful or not depends entirely up to you. When you use what is available to you there is no end to what you can achieve. Don't let anyone steal your dream. Most people you know are never going to be successful and don't want you to become successful, that is why you must surround yourself with successful people. Stay away from the people who are always telling you why you can't do something. Look at them and see if they have ever done anything. Remember this, small minds talk about people, medium minds talk about current events, large minds talk about ideas. You will become what you can believe and see yourself becoming. I believe in you, get this book and learn the secret to success, read my story. Then go out and just do it.

Racism

By: Dr John McElhaney

I have been in the ministry almost fifty years and have made it my life's work to stand against racism. This is the one major issue in the church today that needs to be settled. The pastors need to take a stand in their churches and deal with this in a direct way. To say that we don't have a problem is to ether reveal your own racism, ignorance, or blindness to the fact. This is the one thing that is stopping revival from coming to our land. God cannot bless a divide church and the division is because of the white folks not the blacks. This book describes the view of the author as to the racist attitude in the white church, his experiences in pastoring white churches and confronting racism head on. Don't ignore this important issue that is still very much alive and well in the white churches in America.

Why I Am A Five Point Calvinist

By: Dr John McElhaney

This book is written to clarify the teaching of Sovereign grace, This is the teaching of Paul and the Apostles, Saint Augustine, Saint Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther, John Calvin, Jonathan Edwards, Charles Spurgeon, Martin Lloyd Jones, R.C Sproul, John MacArthur and all other preachers of the past and present that teach the true gospel. Look inside let the scriptures speak for themselves, make sure you have a proper view of God. There are things we cannot understand about God because he is infinite, and we are finite, but whether we understand God or not we are to believe him and his word. The teaching of Sovereign grace is the easiest thing in the world to believe if you will just let God's word say what it means. Once you see and accept this doctrine you will never be the same. You will see so clearly the teaching of Sovereign grace and will understand that the only way you can properly interpret the sacred scriptures is to view them considering God's sovereign grace or what some people call Calvinism.

BackWoods College / When The Education You Received was not Ivey League

By: Dr John McElhaney

This book is kind of a continuation of my book, "When God Will Not Let Go". I have added more experiences in my early life and show how a back woods education is so much superior to an Ivey League education especially in the things that are importin. I talk about the morals we learned growing up in the back woods. Also, the respect for others and especially our elders. I talk about the joy of living with what we had and not even knowing we were poor. I talk about Coon hunting and Goats milk, fishing and White Trash. I have my family tree all the way back to Ireland on my father's side and back to Germany on my mother's side. I also talk about Church, rearing children, travel and many other things. I think you will enjoy this book.

Why does the average white church in America's south not want any black members? Why do white folks believe that black folks should remain in their place?

Death Penalty

By: Dr John McElhaney

This book gives the real account of murders that received the death penalty in East Tennessee. The facts of the cases are presented with the correct names of both victim and perpetrator. The first part of the book covers forty years, with twenty-nine men going to the gallows for their crime. The hangings were public, with large crowds attending. Some hangings were single, some double, some triple. One man was hanged on the gallows he had built for another man two years earlier. One man was hanged three times because the rope kept coming loose. The second part of the book covers another forty years after the electric chair was put in place in 1916 and replaced the noose. There are forty-three men listed that faced the electric chair with twenty-three hundred volts of electricity pumped through their bodies until they were dead. Some days there was only one electrocution, some days there were four. But the death by electrocution was over in two to three minutes. I hope this book is a benefit to you

The Biblical Jesus

The Biblical Jesus

By: Dr John McElhaney

If you ask people What they believe Jesus is like you would get many different discerptions, some would describe him as what they have seen from movies, TV, or some other media. Others would give you the description they have heard in Sunday School or Church. Others will give you a description that they have created in their own mind of what they want Jesus to be like. Probably none would be biblical. Jesus is God, he is creator and sustainer of the universe. He has always existed and always will. He came to earth to die on the cross for our sin. He was buried, rose again from the dead, went back to heaven, sat down at the right hand of the father on the throne, and is waiting to come back to earth to get his Church. Jesus is also Judge; He will judge the believers at the judgment seat, and he will judge the unbelievers at the great white throne judgment. He will save everyone who will come to him, and he will cast everyone in the lake of fire who don't believe on him. Jesus is the only way to heaven.

If the Foundations be Destroyed

By: Dr John McElhaney

This book reveals the problems that we have today that are destroying the things that God has established. The picture of the family has been so distorted because of divorce, living together without marriage, homosexual marriage and lifestyle, transvestites, and many other things, that it does not resemble what God established at all. The government has been corrupt ever since it has been in place. Look at the horrible things the government has sanctioned down through the years. The treatment of the native Americans, by killing them and taking their land through trickery or force. Look at slavery, the most horrendous thing this country has ever done is enslaving black folks for two hundred fifty years, and after they received freedom they were still treated as inferior and not welcome by white folks. The church in America does not resemble the early church at all, weak preachers, who fear man more than God. The church is totally segregated in American, the white church still is so prejudice in the south.

The Biblical Family

By: Dr John McElhaney

Today the picture people have in their mind of a family is so distorted that it does not in any way resemble the family that God designed in his word. The roles of the husband and wife have dissolved beyond recognition. The definition of marriage has become something that our ancestors would not even recognize. We must return to the biblical definition of marriage and teach this younger generation what God's intention is for the family. There are so many things today that are attacking the model family that we as believers must be vigilant, refusing to remain quiet about the issues of the family today. We must let our voices resound as we defend biblical marriage as taught in the word of God. There are many things that this book deals with relating to family issues. Things like rearing Godly children, Family fun time, fractured families, how to deal with abuse, when children leave the home, and much more. You will not go wrong buying this book.

In The Hand Of God

By: Dr John McElhaney

This book gives the details of the life of the author from the time he was saved and called into the ministry until the present. The positive and the negative things that he faced during his life as a pastor. Written within the pages of this book are the details of the trials that he faced and how God guided him through. The failures that he had and how God stayed with him even while he was disobedient to his will. It tells of the disappointments he faced when people ostracized him refusing to accept him as a minister and times when friends turned their back on him. The book talks about the churches he pastored and the problems. The book also tells about how God never forsake him and was always there to comfort him when he faced the difficulties. There is nothing like living and knowing that you are in the hand of God, protected from harm and secure from ever being taken out of his hand.

To say that we don't have a problem is to ether reveal your own racism, ignorance, or blindness to the fact. I know there are many pastors who are racist and would never preach against it. Because of that the people in the church follow your lead and are racist as well. This is the one thing that is stopping revival from coming to our land. God cannot bless a divide church and the division is because of the white folks not the blacks. The whites are the offenders and need to make the first step in bringing reconciliation. The one thing that will change people's attitude of others is to begin worshipping together, when you worship together you become one.
