From Religion to Relationship, Preface
From Religion to Relationship, Preface By John Woodward UndatedIs there a difference in being religious and knowing God personally? Does faith in the existence of God qualify a person for heaven? What does it mean to be "born again"? These questions are explored in this booklet. The answers contained here are derived, not from personal opinions, but from the pages of the Holy Bible. The essential message is non-sectarian and represents basic Biblical teachings that are shared by all who accept the authority of God's Word, interpret it in context, and open their heart to God's leading. Chapter 1: Are You Good Enough to go to Heaven? discusses God's standards and how to meet them. The author, Ray Comfort, is an evangelist originally from New Zealand. Chapter 2: God's Good News for You explains the content of the gospel message. It is written by Ron Hughes, host of the radio program The Family Bible Hour, which is produced in Ontario, Canada. Chapter 3: The New Birth examines the famous conversation of Jesus with a religious leader of his day. Chapter 4: The Nature of Saving Faith describes the kind of faith that meets the requirements the gospel -- a faith the brings one into a personal relationship with God. "And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent" (John 17:3). View Comments | Add Comment
