Jesus not only came to seek and save those who were lost, but He also came to exemplify the ideal priest, prophet, and king on earth. This book lays out Jesus' administration in His three offices: the office of the priest, the office of the prophet, and the office of the king. The book also displays clearly the path to follow if any Christ's follower desires to succeed in those three offices. Ignoring their holiness and importance produces unwanted consequences in all aspect of one's life. The effect of the Holy Spirit in believers' lives is also another subject discussed in the book, which would bring every reader to the pinnacle of his theological potential. In addition, the teachings in this book tackle the false prophets' problems in the modern churches and unveil from the Bible all tools that God gives to believers not only to prevent themselves from being false prophets, but also to identify any false prophet, and the way to escape their snares. I would like to welcome you to this new, blessed, and enjoyable journey. May it be the pathway to help you reach your divine destiny on earth and in heaven! The Lord honored him in 2004 when He called him to be the shepherd of His flock at Bethany Maranatha Baptist Church in Miami, Florida, where Pastor Celestin serves as the senior pastor. He mightily blesses him, his family, his ministry, and those who are around him. Many radio stations broadcast His sound Bible teaching and preaching. Many lives and families have been blessed and restored through his teaching and preaching. Pastor Celestin Ben Joseph expresses his supreme gratitude toward the almighty God for granting him the privilege to share with more people his sound Bible teaching via this book: The Mystery and the Power of the Three Offices of Jesus Christ: The Office of the Prophet, the Office of the Priest and the Office of the King. To God be all the glory!

Ever wish someone could give you a big handle on the entire Bible without years of study? Well, this book not only promises to give you that big handle—it will deliver on the promise. You should be asking, how is this possible? The Bible is one story told over and over again, with many variations on the same theme. This structure is the Bible’s DNA. This basic seven-point pattern is the heartbeat of the Creation. It is the cycle of a human day and a human life. It is the pattern of the Tabernacle. It is the process of agriculture. It undergirds the speeches and Laws of God. It orders the rise and fall of nations and empires. It is also the structure of our worship. It is the rhythm of Christ, and it will open the Bible for you like never before.

Jesus is Lord! This scandalous confession is an act of worship, a pledge of allegiance, a call to service, and a saving act. Yet who is Jesus Christ? How should we understand his life, his death, his resurrection, and his work of salvation? This book offers a perspective from the Wesleyan tradition on these vital questions. It introduces readers to christology, the study of Christ. The authors encourage readers to ponder the mystery of salvation at work in Christ’s entire life and to make the confession “Jesus is Lord” their own.

The author praises Gratian’s zeal for instruction in the Faith, and speaks lowly of his own merits. Taught of God Himself, the Emperor stands in no need of human instruction; yet this his devoutness prepares the way to victory. The task appointed to the author is difficult: in the accomplishment whereof he will be guided not so much by reason and argument as by authority, especially that of the Nicene Council.

Pastors are often ill-equipped in preparing churches to be sacred advocates and activists in the communities most affected by social injustice and neglect. Sacred Anthropology aims to inform and equip pastors in discipling the body of Christ to effect social transformation in times of social crisis. Tyshawn Gardner envisions the pastor as a "sacred anthropologist," as one who understands the cultures of other image-bearers for the sake of promoting the justice of God in the world. As a pastoral mandate, the sacred anthropologist challenges churches to be engaged in the political and social transformation of their community. The social anthropologist employs both secular and theological tools for an effective contextualized ministry. This book posits prophetic radicalism as a pastoral theology and the pastoral office as the center of prophetic radicalism, yet it does not limit prophetic radicalism to the pastoral office. Sacred Anthropology is written with pastors and parishioners from any ethnic group in mind but draws heavily on the prophetic pastoral and preaching tradition of African American pastors and churches. Using this foundation and tradition, sacred anthropologists can lead their congregations in a way that challenges them to be involved, engaged, and transformative.

This book is action-packed with fresh revelation from heaven. Who am I to receive such precious insight on the kingdom of God? Writing this book really revealed to me of how much God loves us through these hidden truths. One of the most important part of our Christian walk is finding out our purpose for life. This will only come through Jesus ministering to us. This is exactly what happened to me as I wrote this book. I thought that I would one day pastor a church, but as I was writing this book, Jesus revealed to me that this is my purpose for life. While writing, I realized that everything was coming to me so effortlessly and I was enjoying it so much that He just confirmed what I was thinking. This is exactly what will happen for you. We have to learn to rest in Jesus, and He will flow through us to bless others. This is what I call the Jesus Ministry. As we yield to Jesus, He will reveal our purpose for life that He will use to bless other people. This will bring great fulfillment to your life, as well as allowing Jesus to minister to others through you.
