With eternal perspective in mind, Dr. James B. Joseph
writes, Experiencing Jesus’ Joy Through Obedient Discipleship. With
superb penmanship and ease, the author offers a firm biblical foundation
(without an overload of heavy interpretation), presenting a concise and comprehensive
overview of the “big picture” of humanity, presenting the reality of eternity.
Within this subject, one will begin to understand the
importance of knowing the one true God as the author presents in detail what it
means to follow Jesus and be His disciple. Such subjects as spiritual warfare,
the awareness of self-centeredness and selfish ambition are mirrored to the
true purpose of one’s identity in Christ, and evaluated giving insight to not only worldly viewpoint, but one that includes a spiritual perspective. The author advocates putting aside selfish
ambitions and the cares of this world, learning to fully trust and submit to
the Lordship of Jesus Christ as the way to finding true contentment; ushering
in a freedom, joy, and inner peace is the true path for all disciples in
Christ.
Covering Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, this book is
unique in that a broad understanding of the fullness of God’s plan is revealed.
All are called to be part of God’s holy family. (As you will read
throughout the book “All” is an important word to God, as He offers to “All”
his mercy and forgiveness.) The author unveils some of the Hebrew and Greek
meanings, helping others better comprehend the mystery of free-will and what it
means to die to oneself and to pick up your cross and follow Jesus daily.
Concise biblical principles are also presented as to God’s creation and His purposes,
while revealing more and more of the Father’s heart for His children. Further
discussing such subjects as: being born again, free-will, God’s
adoption and our status as Sons of God, experiencing Jesus’ joy through
obedient discipleship, wanting to please God, eternal brothers, the author
fluently describes a life here on Earth that is full of righteousness, peace
and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Powerful and enlightening, the author gives the truth of
Scripture, the reality of Heaven and Hell and offers a choice. There is a choice to be made this side of
eternity that will impact your eternity. Reading this book will give you a
greater love and understanding of salvation and a deeper appreciation for
serving the Lord. Experiencing Jesus’ Joy Through Obedient Discipleship
comes highly recommended for all believers to deepen their relationship with
God and find their true purpose on Earth as they choose to follow Him in
obedience as they become molded in Christ’s image.
