Ambushed - Will The Real Enemy Please Stand Up!
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
Christians struggle with maintaining peace and unity. What are the causes of division within the Body of Christ? Jesus said that in the last days the love of many would grow cold because iniquity will abound. Unsuspecting, unprepared Christians, who should be making disciples, are licking their wounds and wandering around looking for their perception of a real New Testament home church - only to be disillusioned again and again! Satan and his demons come as "angels of light" - messengers of truth - that appeal to man's weaknesses and lusts. They ambush otherwise sincere Christians by the attraction of position, prosperity, power, popularity, potential, and prestige. These people then become like "wolves in sheep's clothing" to other Christians. But Jesus said, ". whosoever will save his life will lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it." (Matthew 16:25). He also said, "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13). Ambushed is written with the hope of changing the course of "shifting saints" from a desperate search for the right church to the passionate pursuit of making disciples. It's also written to help Christians understand important truths about living and leading in Christ's likeness and avoiding the enemy's snares - to escape the ambush and entrapment caused by the unseen powers of darkness. Our Lord never intended that His Church helplessly stand idle while Christians are needlessly persecuted from within.
Jim Biscardi's heart, as a Christian leader and teacher, is inexorably connected to this struggle. He shares his knowledge of God's Word and actual examples of destructive confrontations from his 33 years of Christian experience. Members of the Church must stop hurting one another. We can no longer just pass by our wounded brothers and sisters who have been ambushed along the Jericho Road!
