The Challenge of Islam to Christians is David Pawson's most important and perhaps his most sobering - prophetic message to date. Moral decline and erosion of a sense of ultimate truth have created a spiritual vacuum in the United Kingdom. Pawson believes Islam is better equipped than the Church to move into that gap and it is far more likely to become the country's dominant religion in the future.This book unpacks and explains the background behind Pawson's claims. and - crucially - sets out a positive blueprint for the Church's response. Christians must rediscover and demonstrate to society the three qualities that make Christianity unique: Reality. Relationship and Righteousness. This book is essential reading for all Christians.

In these days of heightened concern about the end-times. what is really known about Christ's second coming and how can we prepare for it? Christians everywhere await Christ's return. Will he come to the whole world or just one place? Soon and suddenly or after clear signs? What can he achieve by coming back here and how long will it take? David Pawson brings clarity and insight to these and many other vital issues surrounding the bodily return of Jesus Christ to our world. Based on a new approach to the interpretation of the book of Revelation, he discusses in detail the controversial and misunderstood subject of the 'Rapture' and uncovers the true significance of the 'Millennium'.

No one is able to keep all of the laws of the Old Testament - all of the time, not even the holy men of the Old Testament - Moses, King David and others.Jesus himself said that even if you only look at a woman lustfully you have already committed adultery in your heart. Priests and those in leadership within the Church have often been guilty of misusing the laws of Moses by teaching and demanding strict, literal or even excessive conformity to the Old Testament Law. Such practice puts one under the law, and even places the law above the gospel. In his letter to the Galatians Paul teaches that to be a Christian you do not need to be circumcised and that an over emphasis on keeping the laws, including keeping the Sabbath results in legalism and ultimately brings God's Wrath. The opposite of legalism is license - doing whatever you want whenever you want and that you are only responsible to yourself rather than a higher authority. This also brings God's wrath. In this book David Pawson explains how through Christ's death and resurrection, we have been released from the legalism of the Old Testament Laws (which no one is able to keep all of the time), not to do the opposite which will result in sin by doing whatever we please, whenever we want, but through Christ we have been given true liberty ...the liberty to choose not to sin, by walking in the Spirit.

In this companion book to Heaven and Hell, David Pawson continues with the subject of the life to come, which despite being integral to the Christian faith is too often neglected. David considers the biblical teaching on the last things (death, judgment, heaven, and hell) and the challenges posed to the Christian in the modern world. In doing so, he asks penetrating questions such as:What does the Bible teach about resurrection?What happens immediately after death?Did Jesus really go to hell?The book also features interviews with two professionals whose work has brought them face to face with bereavement - a doctor and a funeral director. In response to David's searching questions, they offer candid first-hand accounts and insights about the challenges faced by the Christian in secular work environments and reveal ways in which their faith informs their view of mortality. They also share their observations about the effects of bereavement while revealing how their belief in the life to come provides solace.David also responds to a series of questions from other Christians about the afterlife. In doing so, he goes straight to the heart of the Christian faith, often covering subjects that are overlooked or ignored in churches. Some of his answers may surprise you!This book an invaluable resource for newcomers to the faith and more mature Christians alike.

In this book, the author addresses a number of key (but widely neglected) topics: The Return of Christ to this Earth; the Punishment of Hell; The Reward of heaven. Ministers, preachers and believers throughout the world will find this a profoundly challenging and informative study of what the Bible actually teaches on these vital matters, and many will discover some surprising truths.

Em "Por que Deus permite os desastres naturais?" David Pawson nos ajuda a encontrar a resposta para essa e outras perguntas sobre Deus. Todas as pessoas que fazem essa pergunta partem de duas premissas: que Deus é Todo-Poderoso e que ama todas as pessoas. Este livro nos ajuda a ter uma visão bíblica, e não sentimental, sobre Deus. A visão sentimental do amor de Deus anunciada ao longo dos anos pela Igreja levou muitas pessoas a pensar que Deus as ama tanto que jamais lhes causaria dor ou sofrimento. A visão bíblica, contudo, nos apresenta um Deus que é paciente, mas se ira; que cura e mata; que se agrada de algumas pessoas, mas rejeita outras; que abençoa e amaldiçoa. Por quê? Porque ele é bom. Ele é justo. É tão bom e justo que precisa odiar o mal e os que praticam o mal. Deus pode usar os desastres naturais para nos lembrar que, segundo a sua justiça, todos nós merecemos morrer, até mesmo de forma prematura e violenta, mas em sua misericórdia, ele concede mais tempo aos que sobrevivem para que se arrependam, para que reflitam e se acertem com ele.

Here is a wealth of insight on a great selection of Psalms which will help preachers and all believers to appreciate their richness and depth of meaning. For example, the author comments on Psalm 23: David wrote this Psalm at the height of his maturity when he could have said as most men in this world say, "I can manage my own life. I don't need anyone else, I'll sort out my own problems," but he didn't. Even though he reached the top of his career if you like; even though he was the top man of his nation, the King of Israel, he was saying: I am a sheep and I need a shepherd. This Psalm is not for those who are dying, it is for those who are living. One reason why we apply it to death is that in the Authorized Version the word "death" was put into the Psalm and it is not there. It is, "Yea, though I walk through valley of deep darkness I will fear no evil." You can walk through that valley tomorrow morning without dying. It is also due to the inclusion of the words at the end of the Psalm "forever", making it a reference to the future life. But in fact, if you have a Bible with marginal references, you will notice at the bottom it is Hebrew "as long as I live". Now Christians can read eternity into that, but David was talking about as long as he lived here. So this Psalm is to help you Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, next week - however near your death or far from it you are.

The word "exodus" means going out, and it is essentially an escape story. All escape stories are exciting and interesting to read, and the book of Exodus is no exception. Here we have the account of the greatest escape in human history. A military expert has sat down to work out the kind of problems facing this escape. You realise that there were probably over two million people - men, women, and children - to say nothing of thousands of animals. They lived in the most forti¿ed country that the world had then seen. Its borders were held by rows of fortresses. The book of Exodus is not just an escape, it is an elopement. For it is the story of a runaway marriage, the true story of a covenant made between God and his people. God said: "Let my people go that they may come and serve me." It is not just to be saved from Pharaoh, but to be saved to God. This is the story of the book of Exodus - how they began the journey that was to lead to the land of blessing.
