This book, Faith Dynamics, is about the principles of faith. It details the difference between the aspect of faith or "believing" as it relates to redemption, and the use of "faith" as a force in accomplishing things for God in this world!

How to develop belief and apply it to the tasks of "moving mountains" in our lives is what this book endeavors to share with the reader/student. The goal and intent is that each reader will reach new levels of empowerment in meeting life's obstacles and challenges-head on! You are about to discover WHY "faith" is the victory that overcomes the world, moves mountains and guarantees that we will get results when we pray!

"How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;" (Hebrews 2:3). Part of our deliverance rests in the knowledge of our salvation. Those who neglect it are unable to attain the fullness of deliverance and blessing God has provided for His children.

God has made an immense investment to set us free! Most people have no idea, just how saved we really are! That is about to change. You are about to discover the degree of effort and expertise God has applied to save us " to the uttermost."

Reading Paul's letter to the Ephesians should be enough to convert anyone to Christ. Try to imagine a devout Christian of our time suddenly converting to the worship of the Greek god Zeus, and being willing to endure fearful hardship, floggings, torture, imprisonment and eventual execution, in order to spread his beliefs around the world. Not only that, but this new convert now derides all other religions, and passionately insists that salvation and eternal life can be found only through total belief in Zeus and the other deities who were presumed to reside on Mt Olympus! What sort of cataclysmic event would be necessary to bring about such an improbable transformation? Probably something like what happened to Paul! He met the risen Christ on the road to Damascus, and was changed for ever. At once a fiercely patriotic Jew, who was actively persecuting the church became its most fervent and famous member. Nothing less than the truth of the gospel can explain Paul's letters, especially Ephesians with its wonderfully exalted portrayal of Christ. If the gospel is not true then some other equally astonishing explanation of the letter must be found, which no one has ever been able to do. This book digs up and displays some of the amazing treasures that lie in Paul's short but immeasurably lovely letter to the Christians in ancient Ephesus.

This book, Authenticity and Authority of the Bible, by Ken Chant, explores how our Bible came into being in its present form; its inspiration and authority and that God is the author. It points out the differences between the Bible and the sacred books of other religions. Chapter 7 tells us of Jesus, the new man, committing himself to the Word and bringing forth an entirely new concept of the Word, that God is alive in Scripture. He broke the barriers of natural perceptions, natural desire, natural family, and his supernatural foe. By His dependence on the Old Testament, Jesus upheld its authority. Archeology, down through the years, has proven over and over again, the truth of the Bible and its authenticity. Finally inspiration, faith, revelation, and science and all examined, demonstrating again, that the Bible is an authentic book on which we can rely.
