The intention to write this book to repeat among today's Christians the Antioch's experience. To teach believers ways each one of us would be capable to live in full the new life we have received in Christ. That new life is expressed through cultivated attitudes and habits modeled after Christ. These attitudes and habits become visible by the outsiders in the believer's daily practices. The Rev. Charles Stanley, for example wrote his 30 biblical principles which guide his life The calling of those who have received a new life in Christ is to live according to what is taught through the Bible . We are called to put new wine in a new wineskin as Jesus said in Mark 2:22 " And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. Otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins." Here are the 12 Fundamental Biblical Principles for a Christian Living. 1-Believing that through faith in Christ, you have received eternal life. John 5:10-13. 2-Loving God with all the heart, all the mind, all the strength and loving our neighbor as ourselves. Mark 12:30-31. 3-Reading, memorizing, meditating, being guided and knowing that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. I Pet. 2:2. 4-Praying daily to God, and living daily in his presence. Ephesiens 5:20; I John 1:9. 5-Confessing the Lord Jesus as your personal Saviour and Lord without reservation. Matt. 10:32; Acts 8:36-38 6-Avoiding temptations. Doing everything and asking God not to let you give in in temptations. Psalm 1:1; I Corinthians 10:13 7.-Witnessing to others about Jesus Christ. Acts 1:8; Romans 10:13-14; Matthew 4:19 8- Serving the Lord with Gladness. Psalm 100:2; Hebrews. 10:25 9- Standing firm on the Word of God. II Pet. 2:1-3 10-Living in Communion with the Holy Spirit II Cor.13:14; John 16:13, Gelatins 3:3. 11.Being a separated Christian, a person who lives a sanctified life. 2 Cor.:14-18; 12. Forging other as you have been forgiven. Ephesians 4:31-32; Matthew 18:23-35 The difference between these biblical principles and the Ten Commandments or any other rules and regulations we have in the church is that the one who has chosen these principles or an expended ones, makes them his or her ways of life. He or she lives them no matter who sees or does not see him or her. No outside force or control is at work in order to live that way. The Spirit of God and his Word work through the one who first, has given self to Christ, and second has let the Spirit help him/her to live this new life in Christ. The goal is to repeat and to multiply the Antioch's experience today among the believers.

Since life is a journey, feel free to stop and ask for directions. Previously released as the bestselling The Glorious Journey, this practical volume by Charles Stanley shows readers how to put God's Word to work in their daily lives with this easy-to-apply handbook. As believers, our desire is to follow the Lord more closely and to utilize His Word for maximum impact in our lives. Occasionally, however, we find ourselves not even knowing the questions to ask, or the best way to approach Scripture in search of answers. Charles F. Stanley's Handbook for Christian Living is not a lofty theological work, nor is it an academic commentary. Instead, Dr. Stanley has prepared a friendly, easy-to-use help system for every believer. In this collection, he speaks with authority on such issues as: the real purpose of baptism how to treat others at work a proper view of those in government how grace saves us and how worry robs us what freedom reallly is He also shares biblical insight into relationships, children, parenting, loneliness, sexual pressures, as well as strategies for personal growth. From the thorny issues of daily life to a framework for the end times (and everything in between), Charles F. Stanley's Handbook for Christian brings Scripture to life, makes sense of the hard questions, and enhances your understanding of the way life was meant to be lived.

The Song of Solomon offers strikingly candid—and timeless—insights on romance, dating, marriage, and sex. We need it. Because emotions rise and fall with a single glance, touch, kiss, or word. And we are inundated with songs, movies, and advice that contradicts God's design for love and intimacy. Matt Chandler helps navigate these issues for both singles and marrieds by revealing the process Solomon himself followed: Attraction, Courtship, Marriage ... even Arguing. The Mingling of Souls will forever change how you view and approach love.

The biblical basis of true Christian experience.

Billy Graham shares God's gentle, reassuring promise of spiritual calm and authentic peace in a world falling apart at the seams. In a culture that values "quality of life" and personal happiness above all else, why are so many of us unhappy, anxious, lonely, on the brink of despair? Why do so many of us feel empty, even though we live surrounded by plenty? In Peace with God, Reverend Graham takes you on a great quest to find the answers to life's purpose. Along the way, he answers essential questions to understanding the true hope at the foundation of the Christian faith—questions like: What is God like? Why did Jesus come? What is repentance? How can I be sure of salvation? How should a Christian live? "God's peace can be in your heart—right now . . .Whatever the circumstances, whatever the call, whatever the duty, whatever the price, whatever the sacrifice—His strength will be your strength in your hour of need. It's all yours, and it's free." Peace with God is a timeless message of hope for all those struggling with despair and loneliness. Billy Graham will beckon you on the path to lasting peace as he describes the basics of the biblical message, the problem of sin, the tenets of the Christian way of life, and the glorious hope for the future.
