An introduction to a complex theological issue that impacts our daily lives as believers in Christ: What is the relevance of the Old Testament Law to our understanding of the Gospel and how it should be lived? This book explores five major approaches to this important biblical topic as they've developed in Protestant circles: Non-Theonomic Reformed View – the law is the perfection of righteousness in Jesus Christ. Theonomic Reformed View – the goodness of the law is dependent on how it's used and does not offer a way to salvation. Heavily focused on Paul's discussion of the Law. Law as "Gracious Guidance" View – emphasizes the contrasts between the Mosaic law and the Gospel of grace, while still asserting the Law's value. Dispensational View – approaches the Law from a historical perspective to help us understand its presentation, treatment, and recipients. Modified Lutheran View – the Law of Christ as the fulfillment of the Law of Moses. This book allows each contributor to not only present the case for his view, but also to critique and respond to the critiques of the other contributors, allowing you to compare their beliefs in an open forum setting to see where they overlap and where they differ. The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.
God didn't just say to Pharaoh, "Let my people go " He also said to the Israelites--and He says to us--"Let go of what enslaves you, and follow me to freedom." The Ultimate Exodus opens our eyes to the things that enslave us, and it sets us on the path of our own exodus. Danielle Strickland revisits the story of the Exodus to see what we can learn from a people who were slaves and who learned from God what it means to be free. We discover as we go that deliverance goes much deeper than our circumstances. God uproots us from the things we have become slaves to, and He takes us on a long walk to the freedom He created us to enjoy.

We often try to avoid the painful trials in life. After all, we would prefer to live our Christian lives from victorious moment to victorious moment. But the apostle Peter has challenged us to look at our trials differently: "Instead, be very glad–for these trials make you partners with Christ in his suffering, so that you will have the wonderful joy of seeing his glory when it is revealed to all the world" (1 Peter 4:13, NLT).

written on the heart I was motivated by the Holy Spirit of the Lord to write this book, for many of us who find ourselves stuck in a place of hopelessness, loneliness, hurts, pain, or despair and just need a word to bring us up and out of a place of darkness. Through my fourteen years of dealing with children from all types of backgrounds, I know that God is able to bring any adult or child through our ordeals in life. I have seen God show up and show out in the lives of many. Through our struggles, God will make a way; The Lord is our keeper, and he shall preserve our soul, and shall preserve us from evil. God will provide in all our situations, and make provisions for our lives. He is the light out of darkness. He is the bright and morning star. God is able to do all things; we are all born into a world of sin and shaped in iniquity, and we dont have to remain in that place of darkness, because God has given us a way out. Salvation is the way; accept God in your heart today. Ask him to forgive you of your sins. We dont have to stay where we are, but can move to where we need to be in Christ Jesus this day.
Is Your Life Demon-Proof? Are you plagued by the same sins? Have you repeatedly repented, yet still feel caught in cycles of captivity? Have you followed the programs and tried the medications but still struggle against tormenting thoughts or addiction? When our sin looms large, we forget who is ultimately in charge. We overcomplicate the process of deliverance, forgetting one simple yet key truth that Jesus demonstrated over and over again: it's in the simple power of His presence that our demons have to flee. By following the Gospel examples of Jesus’s deliverance ministry, internationally respected pastor and revivalist Chazdon Strickland prepares you to partner with the manifest presence of God so that you can live saturated by His holy fire and glory, expel demons once and for all, and walk in lasting liberty. Through Holy Spirit-inspired teaching and practical application, Chazdon equips you with supernatural strategies and hands-on tools to: Host God’s manifest presence every day. Recognize signs when demons are present. Cast out demons the way Jesus did. Make your life a spiritual fortress no demon can enter. Bring freedom to those in demonic captivity around you. Don’t remain in bondage one moment longer! Saturate yourself in God’s holy fire and let His presence burn away your chains and deliver you into blazing freedom.
Jesus gave believers of all eras and ages a model for what Christianity should look like: a people who operate in the supernatural, miracle-working power of God. Chazdon Strickland trains readers on how to walk in this glory realm where the miraculous becomes normal!

Pastors and chaplains aren't the only ones in ministry--every Christian is called to be a minister through his or her work in the world. But in order to fully understand what this entails, we must look to the Bible and develop a fuller understanding of work as any way we interact with God's creation. Doing so may transform our view of how Sunday morning impacts our work-a-day lives--and vice versa. In Every Waking Hour, Benjamin Quinn and Walter R. Strickland develop a biblically and theologically rich view of work, vocation, and how we may glorify God through everything we do.
