Believers often take for granted the great act of salvation provided to us by the work of Jesus Christ. Beginning with the Old Testament sacrifices and the prophecies that foreshadowed Christ, authors Jerry Bridges and Bob Bevington guide believers through the biblical overview of Christ's atonement. The Great Exchange helps believers see how the Old Testament practices tie in with the New Testament discussion of Christ's great work of salvation. As believers work through these principles, they will begin to recognize that even though we deserve condemnation and punishment from a holy God, he has given us the opportunity to experience his great riches through his Son, Jesus Christ. The clear gospel message presented throughout the entire book offers a great appreciation of Christ for believers and an opportunity for salvation for unbelievers.

Jeff Cavins gives an answer to the perennial human question: why does a good God allow suffering? Through the lens of the Mass, and the suffering and sacrifice it re-presents, he shows how the suffering that we inherited through original sin can find meaning in the suffering of Christ. Suffering entered the world through Adam, but Christ came to give it meaning and the capacity to bear fruit. Through the greatest suffering ever endured – the Crucifixion – came the greatest gift: salvation to the world. So also, through our suffering – united to His – will come much good for us and for the whole world.

This study presents the exchanged life, grace life and victorious Christian life-terms that may or may not be familiar to you.

Christ is the only one who has ever lived the Christian life, and only He can do it for us as we trust and yield to Him. This course examines our identity in Christ and the struggle we sometimes have walking in it. This study guide covers three out of the 9 lessons: Life in Christ, Why the Struggle? and God Revealed: Who Do You Say That I Am?

The book presents the Ascension as public truth, examining questions such as when did Jesus ascend - and how, where did he go, with what kind of body and into what kind of space? It discusses the nature of Jesus' victory, how it has been challenged, how it has been understood at different times in history, and how it relates to his second coming. The author examines the relevance of the doctrine for personal spiritual life: our union with Christ, Jesus praying for us, worship, and our own prayers. He goes on to consider living in God's kingdom, the tension between waiting for the kingdom and working for it now, suffering, humanisation, and the church and the world today. The book approaches the Ascension thematically, making it a useful teaching tool. Its themes arise from the categories in which the Church Fathers employed the doctrine. Gerrit Dawson shows the Ascension to be a vital key to understanding in a fresh way the person and work of Christ, union with Christ, the mission of the church in the world, Christian Identity and spiritual theology. A unique feature of the book is the way Dawson combines a full presentation of Nicene trinitarian Christology with its application to

There is more to your Christian walk than you are experiencing! Many writings of the past speak of entering God's rest, the deeper walk, the life hid with Christ in God, or the victorious Christian life. Nonetheless, many, after studying the truths of The Exchanged Life, never experience it. Others have earnestly rededicated their lives to Christ numerous times, completely surrendered at every alter call, worked in ministry until they were totally disenchanted and pressed in until they were wore out, yet found the peace and joy the Bible speaks so freely of, an elusive dream. If self-effort, zeal, or diligence were the key, many would be experiencing abundant life, but they are not! God has a reality for you""on this earth""that few will ever taste. The Kingdom of God is at hand and is available for you to walk in now, in preparation for eternity. If you are drawn to the teachings of the patriarchs of the church age... Watchman Nee Jessie Penn-Lewis Andrew Murray Oswald Chambers Thomas a'Kempis Madame Guyon Major Ian Thomas T. Austin-Sparks ...then you will appreciate the depth of the mystery of the Gospel presented inside this volume. It is presented in a way all may understand and enter in. Our prayer for you is that Jesus Christ may be revealed in you, that this world may see Him, and that you may walk in the true freedom found only through His life, exchanged for yours.
