The Twelve Pillars Of The Christian Faith

The Twelve Pillars represent 12 key doctrines or teachings that are basic to true faith for every Christian. These 12 doctrines stand or fall together. They all relate to each other and are essential to a true "Gospel of Grace". . There are many today who are deluded by false 'gospels'. These 12 'pillars' may be seen be a test of the true way of salvation as revealed in the New Testament. They are entitled: The Sovereignty of God, The Gospel of Grace, The Five 'Solas' and The Five Doctrines of Grace, This book may be used to teach new disciples so that they may be grounded in the Faith and enabled to share that faith with others. It will also be of great help to those who have been believers for many years, but seem not to have grown in their understanding of Bible-based Christian Doctrine or in faith itself.

The Twelve Pillars of Manhood: A Vision that Honors God is the result of the author's life journey viewing community and family through the lens of the Word of God applied to real world situations. It argues that what ails our country and communities is the need for stronger families led by stronger men. But the book also provides guidance for women raising boys to manhood, drawing on the author's own experiences of being raised in large part by a single mother. The Twelve Pillars begin with the premise of honoring God. The remainder of the book's principles follow and develop this premise in its various contexts, worship and prayer, discipleship, stewardship, leadership, and resisting temptation. The book chronicles the author's journey into Christian manhood. This journey takes the author through a world in desperate need of the very Christian principles it fights against. The Twelve Pillars is a celebration of who God has called each of us to be. More importantly, the Twelve Pillars is a battle plan of how to challenge our boys and men to a higher level of maturity, to lead more effectively, and to love more fully, living out God's purpose for their lives.

"To love [God] with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." –Jesus' words in Mark 12:33 Without question the crucial issue in living the Christian life is the condition of your heart. Actions may be temporarily deceiving, but ultimately our outward behavior will reflect what's inside, because our internal attitudes form who we really are. Those inner attitudes are also what God deems most important. In this book one of Christianity's most respected Bible teachers and pastors examines the foundational attitudes, or "pillars," of Christian character as outlined in God's Word. Pillars such as genuine faith, obedience, humility, selfless love, forgiveness, self-discipline, gratitude, and worship. To some degree each trait, on its own, marks a person as one of God's own and reveals an active, living faith. Each is an essential element of mature Christianity. But there is transforming power when you combine them in your everyday living as God commands. Your character will be grounded in godliness; you will see things from an eternal perspective; and your faith, your actions, your witness to others will be revitalized from the inside out.

The revelations contained in the Bible serve as a supreme guide by which to measure all human conduct, creeds, and religious opinions—and today’s Christians are in steady moral and spiritual decline. A 2010 survey by the Barna Research Group reveals that in American churches, Christians have become less knowledgeable about the Bible, less interested in spiritual disciplines, and more desirous of secular techniques to solve life’s problems, thus blurring the distinction between their conduct and that of nonbelievers. In Seven Pillars of Christianity: An Introduction to the Essential Christian Doctrines, Dr. William Ekane reveals the life-transforming foundations of the Christian faith and issues a clarion call for Christians to return to authentic Christianity. First presenting his compelling case for the scientific reliability and divine origin of the Bible, Dr. Ekane works closely with Scripture as he leads us through everything from the Lord Jesus Christ to trust and faith in the living God to, finally, the five major judgments and Revelation. These practical, strategic insights and essential truths are invaluable to new converts as well as mature believers. The Word of the Holy Spirit offers transformation, illuminating our hearts and minds as we strengthen our spiritual foundation and grow deeper in God.

The Twelve Pillars of Unbelief: Why the Arguments for Atheism Don't Work and Why the Ones for Christianity Do. By: Douglas Olsen About the Book This book summarizes the reasons atheism is logically faulty from a Christian perspective. The author incorporates his own examples, insights, and humor. According to the author we are living in an increasingly secular society, and there have been best-selling books by the so-called New Atheists, which need to be put in their place with a fresh approach to the beliefs of Christianity. This book is different from other books attacking atheism in the inclusion of a chapter on heaven and hell with an nontraditional but Biblical view of hell and a section on evolution, Intelligent Design, and creationism. I hope the reader, who is more likely to be Christian rather than atheist, will be armed with arguments against atheism as well as thoughtful ideas about Christianity. Maybe some agnostics or seekers will find truth in it.

This book doesn't just explain the Scriptures; it has a worktext approach that provides an effective path to increased fruitfulness. The practical handles that Dr. Werning has provided translate Biblical principles into action that God can use to revitalize the church.
