DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt is so easy to voice the words: 'Jesus is Lord' but what does it mean to be under the rule of the one we confess to be Lord? For this to be our true confession it has to be lived out in our daily lives too. This lucid book provides a Biblical survey on the theme of God's Lordship and how we can make this a living reality every day.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKConfessing Christ in the Twenty-First Century, written for the layperson and for those who lead and teach them, challenges the readers to think about how their confession is the basis for claiming not only a relationship to a savior, but a way of living in the world--a politics--that is countercultural in the literal sense of that term. At the same time, it comforts them by reminding that the Lord they proclaim is one who opens up a way of living in genuine freedom and equality with others. Douglas probes essential issues in philosophy, theology, worship, ethics, and politics in a way that offers understanding and a comprehensive view, even as it stimulates readers to explore the meaning of their faith in vigorous conversation.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGod has exalted Jesus to the highest place and given him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD to the glory of God the Father. Jesus Christ is now the LORD whether you like it or not, whether you believe it or not, whether you agree with it or not, whether you will confess it or not. If Jesus Christ is not your LORD, who is now your LORD? Why don't you have the courage to confess with your mouth what you believe and who your LORD is? You will not have victory over your sin and live a life of freedom without confessing Jesus is LORD. You can't live your life as a free person without being freed by the lordship of Jesus Christ. Your life depends on whom you will confess as LORD. To make no confession is to deny Jesus Christ. We will change the world by our confessing Jesus Christ is LORD! - Publisher.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe church was established to serve the world with Christ-like love, not to rule the world. It is called to look like a corporate Jesus, dying on the cross for those who crucified him, not a religious version of Caesar. It is called to manifest the kingdom of the cross in contrast to the kingdom of the sword. Whenever the church has succeeded in gaining what most American evangelicals are now trying to get – political power – it has been disastrous both for the church and the culture. Whenever the church picks up the sword, it lays down the cross. The present activity of the religious right is destroying the heart and soul of the evangelical church and destroying its unique witness to the world. The church is to have a political voice, but we are to have it the way Jesus had it: by manifesting an alternative to the political, “power over,” way of doing life. We are to transform the world by being willing to suffer for others – exercising “power under,” not by getting our way in society – exercising “power over.”

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe apostle Paul charged his son in faith to "fight the good fight of the faith, lay hold on the life eternal, whereunto thou wast called, and didst confess the good confession in the sight of many witnesses." He laid before Timothy the example of Christ Jesus, "Who before Pontius Pilate witnessed the good confession"(1 Tim 6: 12,13). It behooves us, therefore, to exercise ourselves in this godly practice. This second volume of the Basic Lesson Series contains six lessons: namely, Public Confessions, Separated from the World, Elimination of Distinctions, Witnessing, How to Lead People to Christ and Household Salvation.
