DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This book was written to encourage the reader who has that specific question: "Why do I have to be obedient?" In our world today, we have battled with this word obedience and have often believed that we are in a most vulnerable position by being obedient. I grew up in the sixties, believe me, I know the talk and walked that walk. I will make my own way, thank you, and I do not need you to tell me different or so I thought; and I was already confused about what the man was saying about who I am to be. I pray that you have found that this was a lie then, and you also have questions about the why of obedience, and my greatest hope is that you have already begun this search for the answer as to why God says that he wants our obedience. Please read this small basic book that comes from my heart and the love that God has shared with me and accept that the purpose of obedience is the good news, and we are not more vulnerable but more than conquerors in this great journey of obedience. God blesses you.

Excerpt: ...not grieved, or frighted into it, either by the pressure of his pains, or by the number of his persecutors: They had almott consumed me upon earth, but Iforfiolnot thy Commandments, vers 87. and many now still are my persecutors and enemies, yet do I not decline from thy tejii-. monies, vers 157. The Holy Apofiles of our Saviour conflicted with more difficulties and distress, persecutions, and fuffer Y y 2 ings ings for the Religion and Obedience of their Lord, than any men, I think, ever did, or it may be ever will do. I think.-, (ayes Sl Paul, that God hath Jet forth us Apoflles lass, as it were men appointed to the bloodiest, which is usually the last, scene of all, even to death it self For we are exposed to slaughter, as men were, in the tragical sports of that time, upon a publick theatre, being made a spectacle ttnto the world, and to angels, and to men. From the first entrance on our office even to this present hour, we both hunger, and thirji, and are naked, and are buffctted, and have no certain dwelling place, being made as the very filth of the world, and the offscouring of all things from the first to this day, i Cor. 4. 9,11, 13. If any straits could authorize an evil action, or if any pressures could justifie a disobedient escape, sure these would. But they knew too well the nature of their Religion ever to dream of a liberty to sin that they might avoid persecution and they were too resolutely addicted to it ever to attempt it. For neither the extremity of their sufferings, nor the defperatenefs of their danger, could ever make them transgress their duty, or go beyond the Laws of their Religion to lessen or prevent them. But they obeyed bravely and entirely, even in the highest Jirains, even in the most ungrateful/...

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
