This book is about questions that Christians and non-Christians asks. Some Christians and non-Christians (I think) ask a bunch of questions that some people don't know the right answers to them. The first question that they ask would be

A GUIDE TO CHRISTIAN LIVING - A SUMMARY This book is a focussed description of Christian living made easy to practice. The target of this book is anyone who is serious about Christ and Christian living. It does not describe what Christianity is from a doctrinal point of view but helps to understand Christian terminology in a very novel way, easy to understand, and made lucrative to practice. For example: What is loving God? God is self-sufficient in everyway. He is Himself the source of love and joy. There is nothing man could do or undo to make Him feel nice or loved or unloved. Therefore loving God, first of all, is passive. The Lord Jesus puts it very finely saying "Abide in my love" as in "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love" (John 15:7 & 9). Therefore, the universal law of eternal life, Matthew 22:37-39, loving God starts with abiding in the love of God and ends with imitating God. Imitating God is loving the neighbour as ourselves. And to this, the Lord Jesus adds a warning: "Be shrewd as a serpent and innocent as a dove." In this way, I have explained in easy to understand and attractive style what commandment is, what sin is, what worship in spirit and truth means, what is prayer, what is meditation, what is praise and worship, what is faith, what does walking in the spirit mean, and more importantly, what is the Word of God and what are its various forms, what does flesh and the world mean, what is fullness of life, is spiritual something alien to us, etc. The Word of God alone is the source of fullness of life. The woman Eve used her free will to reject the Word of Life and chose instead to live through a reasoning mind for food and pleasure (Gen 3:6). Since then God, in His steadfast love and faithfulness, has been trying to infuse the Word of God, who alone is life, into the life of man (who has been dead spiritually) from Abel to Enoch to Noah to Abraham, and the people of the Bible until the Word of Life Himself became flesh and blood in the person of Christ Jesus our Lord and now the Word of Life resides in us who believe in the Lord Jesus as Emmanuel (God with us) the Spirit of Christ, the Holy Spirit. What is Christian Life? It is a lifestyle of abiding in the love of God, doing His will, and loving the neighbour as ourselves. For this lifestyle God offers us protection and blessing (Genesis 15:1) and in 2 Peter 1:3 "His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness;" and eternal life (John 11:26, John 10:10) and glory as His own children (Rom 8:30) in His own Kingdom with the whole creation (Rom 8:21). Death is not a punishment from God for sin but sin as a lifestyle is in itself sickness, suffering, and death. We lose out much and struggle in life because we do not understand what God is offering to us. We have been willfully blinded to know the protection and blessing and eternal life God is offering us through Christian living called walking in the spirit. It is simple. In this book I have dealt extensively with a new way of thinking because we become what we think; and we forget what we do not practice. The Bible talks of putting on the mind of Christ and renewing of our mind. I have differentiated between a spiritual mind and a physical mind. The physical mind is rooted in the flesh and the world. The flesh and the world offer in any field of living a lifestyle of selfishness and survival of the fittest and offers only one third of life. The spiritual mind is rooted in the Word of God. The Word of God is spirit and life-giving and offers fullness of life for eternity. The Word of God represents a lifestyle of abiding in the love of God, loving as God loves, and doing His will. The mind gets transformed through knowledge and meditating on the Word of God. The mind in turn controls our lifestyle. The physical mind has no one to help but the spiritual mind has God and his grace and his promises to help. When we try to operate on both the minds, the mind becomes double minded and confused and the spiritual becomes impossible to practice because the physical and spiritual are at war. Therefore repentance is not a decision of the physical mind to believe in the Lord Jesus; but repentance is the choice of free will in man to choose, as the woman Eve chose, to opt to live through the spiritual mind, a mind that functions on faith in the Word of God for achieving fullness of life. This book would be very interesting and lovable to read and is certain to help anyone serious about Christ and Christian living and will help make Christian living lovable and joyful with success and fulfillment. ---------

I have a gift from God above. Many others do as well. Why is it that the mental health system says: YOUR MENTAL IF YOU HEAR GOD, SEE ANGELS, OR HEAR THE DEVIL,SEE THE UNSEAN THINGS THAT OTHERS DON'T? THE BIBLE SAYS THAT GODS PEOPLE HEAR HIS VOICE, CAN SEE SPIRITUAL THINGS, VISIONS AND DREAM DREAMS THAT COME ALIVE IN OUR WORLD TODAY. Is it because the laws of this worls, the authorities think, that only pastors and evangelist or people in authority have this ability, and anyone else under them can not? There wrong you know to say such things cause in fact there not perfect at all. God choses who He will, and gives these gifts to the obedient souls on earth. Anyone who has gifts and are not born of God and the spirit of God, is not using them for God and cause more harm then good.

Go uses everyone to preform His will and purpose on earth. Throughout history He has used the , Moses, Mary, Elizabeth, John the Baptist, Jeremiah ,Isaiah, Jonah, and more in past times. God is using us as well. You might say that God is not using us like He did in those days, but your wrong. Yes He is. We are all written in the bible but we have not figured out who we are in Jesus Christ. The bible is written about everyone. If you read the bible you will see that the only names written in it today, are those who God has already used in the past. No one of this generation, or time has there names written in it yet .We have not preformed out duties on earth yet. They have. The book of life is the bible. Jesus Christ is the truth, life way. He will write our names in it. There is only one bible written, one God, one nation. God uses us all, whether good or evil. One heaven, one earth, one hell. One generation in aspect to what God says about us being a family around the world. We are all used to preform His purpose and Will for mankind and Gods dream for mankind. So its time to find out who we are , what purpose is, and understand it, preform it, as God desires we do. Everything is under God, and has a purpose. No one can change it. WHAT GOD HAS PUT TOGETHER NO MAN CAN PUT ASSUNDER. WHAT GOD HAS CREATED BEFORE TIME NO ONE CAN CHANGE. PROPHECY CAN NOT BE CHANGED, OUR DESTINIES CAN NOT BE CHANGED, WHO WE ARE IN JESUS CHRIST CAN NOT BE CHANGED.

Life can take us for a ride. Sometimes we can go through things we do not understand about ourselves. I wake up a lot with the questions of who I believe in or serve. Not because I do not know in my heart who I serve, but because something inside is knocking on my hearts door speaking to me from the enemy, who desires to take away my confidence. I know that I do not desire to do or speak evil, or to serve evil things. I know who I desire to serve and that is love and good things from God above. THINGS ARE WHAT THEY ARE, THEY ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM.

You are a divine product, uniquely created by God to realize your natural talents and use them for his glory. The path of glory leads to unimaginable wealth, not just spiritual, but physical as well. I know because I have walked this path. My story took me from rags to riches: from abuse and prostitution to owning two businesses and public speaking in churches and conventions around the world. For a long time I struggled to understand who I was. I did not understand I was the Lord’s servant. He had a plan for me. Though I felt his presence, I didn’t have the courage to accept his challenges.

Does finding the meaning of life mean exploring ancient texts? Does it mean discovering the true meaning of the religion of your youth and closing off all distractions to its true meaning? Does discovering the meaning of life mean finding the ancient wisdom of the East through dharma, yoga or Zen? Does it mean studying at the feet of a master or guru? Does it mean pouring over philosophical tomes? Tom Thurston shows a path to the meaning of life that goes to the source code of our brains. Bringing his background training in theology and world religions, he looks at modern science says about how the brain works. He lays out a path to the meaning of life that is “open source.” It is compatible with various religions or philosophies (or a lack thereof). Religions or philosophies help you organize and understand the world, but if you want meaning in your life, pursue “The Meaning of Life in Three Easy Steps.”
