JourneyPC | Sep 26, 2022 |   ) avdesertgirl | Aug 22, 2021 | If you claim to be a Christian, this book could very well convict you, as it did me. Convict you of thinking or praying too much to God to reveal what He wants you to DO rather than praying to Him about who God wants you to BE . Do you wonder about what God's will is for you in a year? 2 years? What is God's 5-year plan for you? WHY? Why are you not seeking to understand God's will for you TODAY? This book will also remind you that Christians believe in a triune God, three persons - three co-EQUAL persons - manifested in one God. I know for me, as I read it and discussed it in a small group, I started to understand Chan's message more and more and realized that I had, perhaps unintentionally, excluded an equal focus on the Holy Spirit as I do on God the Father and Jesus the Son of God. Chan is not telling us we must change to a different faith tradition that may focus more on the Spirit. In fact, he specifically tells us such a change is not what he is suggesting. What he is teaching is that to fully have God's presence in our lives, we must seek out the Holy Spirit's guidance and presence in our lives as much as we seek out God the Father's and Jesus the Son's guidance and presence. After all, before Jesus left his physical life on earth, he gave a part of himself to his disciples and us in the form of the Spirit. For me, that has pushed me to not only pray specifically to God the Father and to God the Son, but also to the Holy Spirit every day. I really enjoyed the book. A couple in the group struggled a bit more with understanding that Chan's teaching is not in conflict with their Christian beliefs. I think that the traditions they grew up in simply did not focus on the Spirit as a co-equal. And that was the reason they struggled with Chan's teaching. I challenge you to read and discuss this book in a small group. (  ) highlander6022 | Aug 28, 2020 | livros.icnvcopa | Feb 19, 2020 | ) LindaLeeJacobs | Feb 15, 2020 | sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
nbsp;¿Por qué tratamos de vivir como si el Espíritu Santo no fuera real? ¿Será que tememos ser verdaderamente guiados por el Espíritu y todo lo que ello implica? A través de una sólida base bíblica y una convincente narrativa, el autor Francis Chan?quien se caracteriza por romper esquemas?, lleva de nuevo al Espíritu Santo como la Biblia lo describe. No hace sentido que el Todopoderoso tenga hijos que se caracterizan por tener miedo e inseguridad. Él colocó su Espíritu en nosotros para que seamos conocidos por nuestro poder (Hechos 1:8; 2 Timoteo 1:7). nbsp; nbsp;Chan sostiene que hemos ignorado al Espíritu y estamos cosechando los desastrosos resultados. Llegó el momento que la amada Iglesia de Jesucristo le dé un revés a la tendencia de negación. Busquemos la efectiva vida llena del Espíritu que Dios y nosotros deseamos. ¿Será que nos hemos olvidado de Aquél que nos distingue de toda religión y culto en el mundo?nbsp; No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
