This book is designed to provide assistance to pastors and church leaders on how to reclaim inactive church members. Actual real life illustrations are provided to show how some churches have made efforts to solve this problem.
This work sets forth selected Biblical teachings regarding the special privileges, attitudes, and activities available from God to professing Christians to assist them in Christian living and service.
Since 1960 vast changes have taken place in our country. During that period cultural changes were numerous, some good and some bad. This work refers to changes that give cause for grave concern, including increase in crime, child abuse, abortion and disturbing developments in government, all described, and suggested solutions for them made. Herbert W. Byrne, Ed. D., has worked in Christian ministry for over forty years, serving as Pastor, Evangelist, classroom teacher and Sunday School lecturer in over thirty different denominations in the United States and Canada. He is the author of more than twelve books in the field of Christian Education.
From the Preface In commenting on the journey of the children of Israel from Egypt to Canaan, the Apostle Paul said in I Cor 10:11, "All these things happened unto them by way of example and are written for our admonition." Here Paul teaches us that we can learn from this account of the history of Israel in two basic ways: (1) by looking at the example they set, and (2) by examining the fundamental principles and admonitions derived from their experiences. In these studies, we hope to accomplish two things: see their example and discover "the Gospel of the Canaan journey." It has often been said that there is no gospel in the Old Testament. The writer does not agree with this position and believes that there is just as much gospel in the Old Testament as in the New. It is there in type and symbol, in object lessons. The people looked forward to the cross in Old Testament times, but today people look back to the cross. The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed; the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed. Beautifully pictured in the Pentateuch is the Gospel of the Canaan Journey. These lessons have been prepared to make available practical material suitable for the pulpit, devotionals, Sunday school lessons, and prayer meeting discussions. The method of chronological development reveals the way the gospel is seen today. By making application, the reader is enabled to apply gospel truth and the saving power of Jesus Christ to his own soul and to those to whom he might minister. Herbert W. Byrne
