Jesus Revolution, Jesus Revolution

2024 Edition. Revised and Expanded.This is the first book in the Jesus Revolution Trilogy.We should never ask whether we are good enough. We should rather ask whether Jesus is good enough. Likewise, we should never ask whether we can lose our salvation. We should rather ask whether Salvation, who is Jesus, can ever lose us. Is Jesus good enough to give and maintain our salvation, justification, sanctification, and glorification?God can and does look at sin! Jesus in the flesh looked at sin, fleshed out sins, and spent His time with sinners! Of course, He can look at the dirt of humanity for out of dirt He created us. God is good and He wants all men to understand the destructive nature of sin. He cannot stand sin for the hurt it does to us. That is why He looked long and hard at sin, to eventually remove all sin from us.Is the bible about Christian living or is it about Christ? Is the bible about our sacrifices for Jesus or is it about Jesus’ sacrifice for us? Is the bible a self-improvement manual or is the bible a revelation of Jesus? In short, is the bible about us or is it about Jesus?If we are the center of the bible, then most books in the bible become How-to guides. We read the bible to discover how-to better our lives, how-to perform better, how-to do more and obey more. While most of these efforts are very good and commendable, the emphasis is on us doing many good works so that God will be pleased with us.But if Jesus is the center of the bible, then another picture emerges. It is now Jesus who did all the good works. God is pleased with us, not because of our works, but because of Jesus’ completed work on the cross. He did it so we do not have to. It is all about Jesus. As He is holy, so are we holy. As He is good, so are we good. As He is accepted, so are we accepted. As He is victorious, so are we victorious. As He is righteous, so are we righteous. Because of Jesus, we enjoy the unmerited favor and blessings of God.Welcome to the Jesus Revolution!
