A Why Is Christianity So Hard?

Beschreibung

Christianity is hard. Having faith today is difficult at best. Our faith will be tested by God, Satan, society, our loved ones and ourselves. Why is the gate narrow? Why do we need to share in the sufferings of Christ? Why is evil in the world? Why did you give us free will to choose? Why is the message of the Gospel foolishness to most people? Doesn't God want all to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Why is it so hard for us to believe you? Frustrated with the struggles to maintain his faith, the author works through some of the hard questions that Christians will be asked and may have asked themselves. God works through the least likely to accomplish His purpose and will. Written by a soldier for Christ, this book organizes biblical truths to enable the reader to formulate their own beliefs based on the word of God. After years of seeking God through studying, attending and leading classes, the author presents what the Bible says about key issues in the believers walk of faith. "For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith" (1 John 5:4 NKJV).

Autor

The author's testimony is about a journey to discover Faith, to love God, to know God and His Son Jesus. How do you really love God? How do you really "know" that Jesus is alive and real? It takes faith. Over the 41 years since accepting Christ, the author has struggle/ wrestled with God, but always felt the presence of the Lord tugging him back home. There was a time when he figured that he could still have a relationship with God and not attend church. There were other times when he was on fire for the Lord. And then other times he would fall away again only to be called back by the Lord yet again. Through it all the author questioned and tried everything only to come back to the Lord every time. Thank you, Jesus, for loving me that much. The author was raised in dysfunctional family that moved a lot. He went to 12 schools through high school including 3 kindergartens and 4 high schools. His family life deteriorated to the point that when he was 13 no one cared if he came home. His stepmom took him to church where he accepted the Lord as his Savior on a teen trip to present a play at different Idaho churches. Those were exciting times, living out this new life in the Lord. During all these years, the author gained a love for the Bible. It is God's tech manual. As a retired Army Warrant Officer, technical manuals were an important part of the job. We were required to know them completely. He has taken this approach to the Bible. The second aspect of being in the military is that he attended many churches. Moving every 2 1/2 years gave him a perspective on churches that few others have gained. He received and witnessed many different methods and styles of teaching the Bible and applied these two experiences to the writing of this book. Jesus is the author's King, Lord, Savior and Redeemer. He is his Love.
