Bücher von John F. MacArthur

This study guide, based on Pastor MacArthur's book, The Truth War, is perfect for both individual study and small group study.

In response to the flood of questions and deep introspection brought about by Mel Gibson's blockbuster movie, "The Passion of the Christ," MacArthur has created a workbook that answers those deep, personal, and sincere questions.

Gott in einer Krippe - unmöglich?Die Jungfrauengeburt - nur ein Märchen? Unsere eigentliche Skepsis gilt gar nicht der Jungfrauengeburt oder anderen erstaunlichen Dingen, die in jener Nacht geschehen sind, sondern der Behauptung, dass Gott in einem Kind in diese Welt kam.Warum die Menschwerdung Gottes für uns die wichtigste Botschaft ist, die die Welt jemals gehört hat, und wie sie unser Leben völlig verändern kann, erklärt John MacArthur in diesem Buch.Eine herrliche Weihnachtslektüre für die ganze Familie und ein wertvolles Geschenk für Freunde, Nachbarn, Arbeitskollegen und besonders für die, die noch nicht wissen, warum Jesus in diese Welt kam.InhaltWarum feiern wir Weihnachten? Weihnachten ist eine Zeit wahrer Freude, doch die wahre Freude entsteht da, wo man erkennt, was Weihnachten wirklich ist, und wo man Den kennt, dessen Geburt wir feiern - Jesus Christus.Wir können Ihn nicht kennen, wenn wir nicht erkennen, dass Er Realität ist. Der Bericht von der Geburt Jesu ist keine Legende. Maria und Joseph waren wirkliche Menschen. Ihr Dilemma des Raummangels in der Herberge war für sie eine große Not und so legten sie das Jesuskind in eine Krippe. Diese erste Weihnacht war weit entfernt von dem, was wir uns normalerweise als niedliche Weihnachtsszene ausmalen.Aber Eines macht die Sache umso erstaunlicher: Das Kindlein in der Krippe ist Gott!Hier ist das Herz und Wesen der Weihnachtsgeschichte. Es gab nicht viele Anbeter um diese Krippe herum - nur ein paar Hirten. Eines Tages jedoch werden sich vor Ihm alle Knie beugen und alle Zungen werden bekennen, dass Er Herr ist. Die, die Ihn anzweifeln, die Seine Feinde sind, die Ihn ignorieren - alle werden sie eines Tages ebenso ihre Knie beugen. Wie viel besser ist es doch, Ihm jetzt die Ehre zu geben, in der Ihm gebührenden Anbetung! Das ist es, wozu Weihnachten führen sollte.

The people of Israel were carried away to Babylon, where they lived as exiles and outcasts. God sent this judgment on His people because of their continued unfaithfulness to His wordbut the day came when He called them to return to Jerusalem.

During the time of the divided kingdom, both the nation of Israel in the north and Judah in the south witnessed great miracles and great failures as their kings vacillated between serving God and following pagan practices. As God led the people through prophets such as Elisha, the clock on the nation's self-rule began to tick down.

Under King Solomon the Israelites had been a united people, but that all changed when his foolish son Rehoboam came to power. In the days that followed, the nation divided into two separate kingdoms. The reigns of these kings were turbulent, marked by a succession of ungodly monarchs in conflict with the Lord's prophets.

Though attempting to live a transformed life by the power of the Holy Spirit, the church in Ephesus was immersed in an evil culture and surrounded by sin and pagan ways. Discouraged believers needed a reminder of God's grace and love, of the blessings they had in Jesus Christ, and of their commitment to holiness.Written by the apostle Paul as a letter of encouragement and admonition, Ephesians gives a refresher course in New Testament doctrine and provides a practical blueprint for Christian behavior. Through this letter, Paul shows us our continual need for God's help and demonstrates that everything good we enjoy is an expression of His great love.The MacArthur Bible Studies provide intriguing examinations of the whole of Scripture.
