Excerpts

A significant number of Christians believe the Bible enough to get saved, but they fall short in experiencing the abundant life Jesus said He came to give. As the truth of God's word spreads abroad, Christians will be confronted with a crossroads where each must decide that either this "God of the Bible" is real, and what He says is true, or each must decide that this "God of the Bible" is just another someone to put your hope and trust in, but it would be an exercise in futility to set expectations of Him--expectations that extend beyond saving faith.Because many ideologies and theories have been instilled deeply in many and in some instances with error but inadvertently so, they have caused many individuals to have misaligned expectations of God, the "Church," and the local church. As a result, many run the risk of becoming disillusioned believers and retarding in their spiritual growth. So, if you are a carrier of the Word of God or plan to become one, make sure you give your hearers the basics so that we minimize the number of God's people who are destroyed because they lack knowledge of some very simple truths.The intent of this work is to fulfill a promise I made to myself years ago. Because I lacked this knowledge in the early stages of my spiritual growth and development, I made a vow that I would share this collection of basic information with all who would receive it. This collection of information is what rescued me when I was confronted with whether or not I wanted to continue this journey. Instead of bailing out, I decided to throw out a life line. As you grab a hold through reading this text, it is my prayer that it ignites a burning desire in you to want to know more. May the "seek" in you take you to a new place in Him is my prayer.
