During this age of deception, desire for prosperity, prestige and power at all costs even at the expense of home and faith, informed decision making strategies are imperative. Therefore, the secret of remaining faithful to Christ and your spouse is to identify the seductive tactics of the Devil, and to be determined in rejecting such tactics. This book, titled Hold the Fort - Overcoming Temptations, contains deeper Biblical interpretation and application from the book of Song of Solomon which depicts the relationship between Christ and the Church, husband and wife and people in courtship. Solomon used his position, power, prestige and prosperity to seduce the Shulamite lady into marriage. However, this lady refused all his offers; she made up her mind never to forsake the marriage plan she had made with the shepherd boy. Powerful inspirational suggestions on how to overcome temptations (all forms of seductions to compromise your moral standards) from any attractive person, program, promise, association, or movement are well presented and explained in this text. The ultimate goal of love is hereby expressed. This book will inspire you, give you food for thought and help to deepen your love for Christ and your spouse

It was Owen's earnest regard that his readers should be brought into a condition of safety against the wiles of the devil, to break the force of his warnings and entreaties by ingenious speculations and irrelevant learning. Not merely in the warm appeals interspersed with his expositions, but in the patient care with which no nook of the heart is left unsearched, does the deep solicitude of Owen for the spiritual welfare of his readers appear. To one who reads the treatise in the spirit with which the author wrote it, --simply that he may judge his own heart, and know what temptation means, and be fully on his guard against it

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
