I was at the bookstore, just a few days ago, and saw this relatively new Tittle. It immediately caught my eye, having been written by a Pastor who leads one of the largest congregations in Texas, among Baptist Churches anyway.
I looked at the Table of Contents (knowing you can’t always tell a book by its cover)! I learned that Dr. Jeffress refuses to budge on the key issues of our Faith! He even has a chapter about “The Intolerant Jesus!”
As in: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” And yes, Jesus Himself was talking there in John 14:6.
But our “politically correct” world and its fierce “thought police” try desperately to force the issue … that “love” trumps “faith” at every angle!
This Book seems to be arguing: I WILL NOT AGREE!
Reminds me of what three young Jewish men said to a wicked King Nebuchadnezzar one day long ago. In the face of martyrdom, standing by a burning fiery furnace. “Be it known unto thee, O king, that WE WILL NOT serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.” Daniel 3:18
“We will not …”
Folks, in these specially dark days we all are going to have to learn to use those words: “I WILL NOT!”
Because, no matter what the ecumenical religious crowd may be saying … ALL ROADS DO NOT LEAD TO HEAVEN!
Proverbs 14:12 shouts: “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Wow!
And Peter preached: “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is NONE OTHER NAME under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12, where that Name is Jesus!
Many other areas exist as well … where (looks like) we Christians are going to have to STAND ALONE!
Paul knew the feeling: “At my first answer (trial) NO MAN STOOD WITH ME, but ALL FORSOOK ME: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge.” 2nd Timothy 4:16
Yet we must share this exclusive Jesus … with a far too inclusive world! Otherwise, multitudes will die and go to Hell, a literal place of fire and brimstone and eternal (never-ending) torment!
