Essential Doctrines of Christ: A Bible Study Manual for Maturing Christians - Paperback

by Jerry Udoh Ph. D. (Author)

Essential Doctrines of Christ releases critical insights and revelations into crucial but often misunderstood topics and concepts in the Word of God, to illumine and enlighten you as you seek to draw closer to God. This is what Apostle Paul underscores when he states in Ephesians 1: 16-19, "I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe." The Spirit of wisdom and revelation, when released, opens the eyes of your heart, and enlightens you to better appreciate the hope of your calling and the riches of His glorious inheritance. This book, which can be used as a bible study manual in a church or school setting or as a tool for personal learning and growth, addresses topics like knowledge of God, faith, grace, sanctification, justification, mysteries of God, substitutional nature of Christ, the trinity, the Holy Spirit (His works, manifestations, and fruit), Christ as a revolutionary leader, stewardship, the Kingdom of God, etc. The book, therefore, is suitable for Believers who are desiring to know more about God and mature in their relationship with Him. It is the plan of God that we do not remain baby Christians when we come to the saving Grace of our Lord and Personal Savior, Jesus Christ, but to grow to maturity organically and consistently. As babes in faith, it is very possible and easy for us to be tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes, according to Ephesians 4.
