The Christian Manifesto: Jesus Life-Changing Words from the Sermon on the Plain (How to live the Christian life and experience true blessing as a disciple of Jesus.)
What does genuine Christian living look like in the 21st century, and how can we be motivated to live that way?
The answer comes from Jesus sermon in Luke 6 (sometimes known as the Sermon on the Plain), which starts, Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God and goes on to lay out Gods vision statement for the Christian life. It is a manifesto that has nothing to do with politics, culture or personality, but rather Gods intentions for his people.
Renowned Bible teacher Begg unpacks this sermon, exhorting Christians to live a radically different life that upends the world's values and philosophies. It's a lifestyle that is counterintuitive and countercultural, yet one that God blesses with true meaning and impact.
As we look at the kindness and compassion of Jesus and ask for the Holy Spirits help, well grow in both the motivation and the ability to obey Jesus teaching and experience the blessing that comes from that.
This compelling book will remind you of God's grace and what it means to follow him, helping you discover the ultimate blessing that is found in him.
