Not I, but Christ brings together thirty-five of Corrie ten Boom's inspirational devotionals that give an explanation of Christ's life and outline how the Christian can appropriate that life to bring glory to God.
Christianity is not religion – it is life. Specifically, it is the life of Jesus Christ given to the soul of man. It is not a collection of beliefs, although knowing His life will cause us to see and walk in the truth. It is not a kind of behavior, although abiding in His life will affect all that we desire and do. Christianity, at its very root and in every branch, is bound up with a very specific life that God gives, reveals, and forms in the soul of man. Christianity is Christ living in you. The question that confronts us as believers is whether we are satisfied with a small and blurry view of God's incredible gift, or whether we, like Paul, will count all things loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Jesus Christ our Lord. There are many who have accepted the gift of life in Christ and yet, like the children of Israel, seem content to wander in the wilderness of man's religious ideas with both their treasure and their heart wrapped up in things of this world. There are others, however, whose hearts have grown restless within them, and whose constant prayer has become, “Lord, there must be something more than this!” Indeed there is more. But to know and experience the greatness of His life, the soul must be carried on by the Spirit of God to an ever greater view of the cross of Jesus Christ.
Excellent treatment of the central theme of the gospel--Galatians 2:20--on the significance of the Cross. Scriptural encouragement for those who find faith somewhat empty. Now in paperback.

In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought. Through an in-depth investigation of Galatians 3:1-4:11, Hays shows that the framework of Paul's thought is neither a system of doctrines nor his personal religious experience but the "sacred story" of Jesus Christ.
Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.
