This book is divided in two parts. The first part is the story the Bible tells of God’s presence in the world beginning with creation and the rebellion of the first humans, followed by God’s project of restoration in the chosen people of Israel, its fulfillment in the death and resurrection of Jesus, and the final consummation at the end of time. The second part is an exposition of what the Bible teaches our response to the story should be. The author points out that the Holy Spirit reveals to us our union with Christ in his death and resurrection. This enables us then to practice the virtues that lead to holiness, which is the foundation of our vocation as kings and priests.

Your spiritual glass is half empty if your Christian life consists only of good theology, good works, and just attending church without a truly supernatural lifestyle. Many believers, even those who are Spirit-filled, cannot claim to possess a fully supernatural life. Happy with an occasional taste of Heaven, they assume that such a goal is out of reach. In this well written and easy to understand manual, author Ryan Wyatt explains the interplay of the physical and spiritual worlds in a fresh way that shows you—beyond doubt—that a supernatural lifestyle is available to you as well.

When you read detective stories, you quickly learn that what may look like an irrelevant little detail may actually be the clue to solving the mystery. A good writer will put in all kinds of detail; nothing is there by accident. Nothing in John's Gospel is there by accident either. And all the details in John are designed ultimately to come together. In these studies we discover the clues John gives that we might see even more clearly the reality of who Jesus is, the new creation he inaugurates and the difference that all makes.

Under the Old Covenant, the priesthood belonged to Aaron and his sons. Since believers, by faith, are part of Christ's family line, they receive the ministry of the priesthood also. Under the Levitical system, there was one high priest among the priests. Christ was called a High Priest and not the only priest; thus, there has to be other priests that serve with Him. These other priests are those who have believed on Him. The believer receives kingship and priesthood through Jesus. To have a people of a royal priesthood has always been a part of God's plan for His people. It was His desire for the children of Israel, yet He developed this desire in the believers. In the pages of the first book of this set, we will bring clarity to the foundation for the royal priesthood of the believer. Book 1 of 2. - Small Group and Bible study edition is available: "Royal Priesthood Studies 101: Introductory Studies to the Priesthood of the Believer."

This book is divided into two parts. The first part is a summary of the story the Bible that tells from creation through the human rebellion and God’s remedy in Jesus’s death and resurrection to the consummation and the worldview it reveals. The second part is an exposition of how we should live out our vocation in response to the biblical story and its worldview. The author explains that we need to rely on the Holy Spirit to reveal our union with Christ in his death and resurrection. This enables us to practice the virtues that lead to holiness, which is the foundation of our vocation as kings and priests of God.
