Your Reaction Defines God S Action

To Change your Position you must first change your Location. Those of us who are parents are fascinated when our children begin to Creep, Stand, take the first Steps on watery legs, then Walk and later Run. Every normal baby follow this pattern, from a horizontal posture to a vertical position. Our Creator has placed in all of us this drive, (or some may call it instinct) to change our position, from a sleeping posture to creeping, then sitting, then standing, then walking and then running. I would like to introduce another position to you and that is 'CLIMBING.' This will take some effort on your part, but our God said He will give you the strength and energy to do it because He wants you to come to Him to take you where you ought to be irrespective of your past and present circumstances because where you are may not be where you should be.. I was born on a small island in the Caribbean called St Vincent. Being the seventh child of a family of fifteen and a father who was a brick layer opportunities were non existent. Yet even though poverty was my stay I dreamed every night I am wearing white clothes. For a time I thought this means I am going to be a medical doctor so I studied hard and my parents ask an uncle who was living in England to help in sending me to the only secondary school in that part of the island. I was on my way to become a doctor because those white clothes burn within my soul. I never became a doctor and when Jesus called me the third time I left everything behind and followed him. When I met him He had this beautiful and spotless white robe waiting for me.

If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize? Or does active evangelism imply that God is not really sovereign at all? J. I. Packer shows in this new edition to the popular IVP Classics how both of these attitudes are false. In a careful review of the biblical evidence, he shows how a right understanding of God's sovereignty is not so much a barrier to evangelism as an incentive and powerful support for it. With over 100,000 copies in print, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God is truly a classic that should be read by every Christian.

"With more than 100 lengthy essays, this exceptional work on Judaism covers more than its historical framework. The Encyclopedia of Judaism provides complete and accurate coverage of Judaism--everything from its history, beliefs, and observances, from the beginning to modern times. It is an excellent source written by scholars."--"Outstanding Reference Sources," American Libraries, May 2001.
