Most Christians claim to know to Jesus as a friend or guide, as an inspiration and model. We adore him and even worship him. But what happens when you have him for dinner? This book explores the development of the meal practice of Jesus's followers as they move from having Jesus as the guest at their table, to having Jesus as the main course.

Rely on the unstoppable power of the gospel, not your own words
Most Christians have people in their lives who they're sure will never come to faith. Whether they're too committed to their sinful ways, too angry at God, or too quick to shut down any mention of the saving grace of Jesus, these long shots don't seem worth approaching.

¿Por qué los judíos no aceptan a Jesús como su Mesías? Por Bernard Levine
Permítanme explicarles por qué los judíos no aceptan a Jesús como su Mesías.
Mi propio pueblo, la nación judía, no reconocerá ni aceptará a Jesucristo como el Mesías.
Sin embargo, hay muchas pruebas en la Biblia que demuestran que Jesús, el que murió en la cruz por nuestros pecados, es realmente el Mesías que pronto llegará.
Entonces, ¿por qué los judíos...

Les Juifs sont obsédés par l'idée de suivre, de garder et d'obéir à toutes les lois et traditions créées par l'homme et compilées par leurs Rabbins.
Parce que les sacrifices de sang de l'Ancien Testament ont été supprimés et ne sont plus observés, les Juifs ne peuvent pas se faire nettoyer ni pardonner leurs péchés sans...
