Bøger af Anthony Osuobeni

In this very important work, the author emphasizes that God's original purpose was to communicate the life, ministry, death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ to Israel. God wanted His people to know that they could not worship Him unless they were saved. Thus, the message of salvation and the Savior features prominently in the Tabernacle outline. The whole proposal of the Tabernacle was hinged upon the pivot of God's desire to dwell with His people. The author explains how we derived the language of Redemption from the Tabernacle. Concepts such as grace, mercy, peace, atonement, love, justification, sanctification, to mention a few, all stem from the Tabernacle. The ultimate purpose of the book is to arm Christians with the vital knowledge that we are God's Tabernacles on earth today. The book is a must-read for any believer who wants to understand worship deeper and become a better worshipper. The author's knowledge of the relevance of the Tabernacle to our modern-day worship is highly commendable. This is a very serious work on one of Christianity's greatest disciplines. Get the book!

In Book 3, So Great Salvation, the author introduces the Doctrine of Redemption and continues to explore and expound upon the truths of the Goodnews of Jesus Christ. The scene is still set in God's courtroom, where God sits as the Righteous Judge, presiding over the long-drawn-out case facilitated by His best Prosecutor, the Apostle Paul against the rational Gentile sinner and the religious Jewish sinner. God's case against the reformed Gentile sinner is watertight. He doesn't have an alibi. He cannot claim lack of jurisdiction against God, who as the Creator-Judge of the whole earth, exercises authority over people's hearts everywhere. The case is under wraps, the verdict is out, and it is affirmed, GUILTY AS CHARGED. "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23. The sentence is based on truth according to God's righteousness, people's wrong deeds and it is without partiality. The author writes in a typical Pauline fashion, revealing the Gospel of Jesus Christ as the "Gospel of causes and consequences." You shall be judged according to your deeds and or misdeeds and you shall reap what you sow regardless of who you are. Anthony Osuobeni is in the vanguard of truth, making the Christian message as clear as it can ever be. Now, the reader can begin to understand why the author says, If you get Romans God will get you. Get Romans, get all three books and watch out for more as the message continues to build up in the author's personal studies. The Romans series have morphed into a full-blown Bible Study series and deservedly so.

A Thousand Song Offering: How To Attract Divine Attention With Your Worship is a book written with the passion of a seasoned worshipper. Worship is one of the ships that drives the author. Anthony Osuobeni calls upon his readers to worship God extravagantly just like Solomon did at Gibeon. He avers that we do not worship God because we want God to bless us, but there is no way we worship God that He will not bless us. Worship attracts divine attention because it is focused on pleasing God-shaping the worth of God. Worship is the outward demonstration of an inner revelation. Worship is pouring out to God which is not possible without bringing our own thousand burnt offerings- paying the price-the price of worshipping God when there is no human reason to worship. Indeed, one act of worship flowing from the flames of a burning living sacrifice is equal to a thousand song offering!

In GOD SPEAKS TWO LANGUAGES, Anthony Osuobeni shows you how to understand the written Word of God (the logos) and apply the spoken or revealed Word (rhema), to life's situations and circumstances. The author's deep insight into the Word of God reveals the truth of all truths; "God created the world with His Word. You too can create your world with your words, empowered by the Word of God." Anthony shows you how how you can and should build your life exclusively on the foundation of the Word of God. He shows you how you can speak like God and sound like God. He says, by understanding "creationese" and "redemptionese," you can become fluent in God's dual language and become a solution in a world filled with problems. In short, breakthroughs will become your way of life through the Word of God. Preachers and all of God's people seeking to know more of His Word and be victorious in life and ministry, will find this book an invaluable collection to their library.

In the Gospel According To Worship, the author writes; "Worship is the supreme message of Christianity. It is the means of relationship with God, and the end of the personal revelation of God. Nothing is more critical to the Church of Christ in this day and age than to get her message right. If we get worship right, we will get everything else right." You are holding in your hand another great addition to the author's growing list of worship books. His fascinatioin with the subject is proof of his fascination with God. He invites you to join him in this fascination. The Gospel of the kingdom of God is the Gospel of worship. God is looking for nothing more. We should look for nothing more than to be pleasing to God and the shaping of His worth.

The Truth About Leading Worship, is another seminal work by a seasoned Worshipper and Worship Leader. This handbook on worship outlines the purpose of the worship ministry, as well as the significant role the worship leader plays in leading the local assembly into God's presence. Worship leading occupies a central place in the weekly gathering of God's people all over the world. Can you imagine your church without worship on a given Sunday? The gathering of the saints on Sundays is called a worship-service on purpose, because worship is what God's people are about and it is what they do. While the preaching of the Word occupies a central place in our worship-services, corporate worship abides as the underlying current of the Sunday meeting. The role the worship leader, who by the way is a bona fide leader of the local assembly alongside the fivefold ministry gifts, is discussed in glowing terms, that leaves the reader without a doubt that worship leader is a God-ordained addition to the Body of Christ. The author presents worship as atmosphere created by the Holy Spirit, who is the Real Worship Leader. He also discusses the role the worship leader and the worship team plays in being led by the holy Spirit to use certain key biblical phenomena in creating the right atmosphere conducive to the worship that appeals to heaven.

Leadership By Divine Design: How to Be An Effective Christian Leader is another significant work by Anthony Osuobeni, author of the seminal book on revival, Hashtag Revival. He writes to add his voice to the vast body of literature on Christian leadership, highlighting believers' call to leadership in the Body of Christ. He encourages believers, pastors and church leaders, to see leadership the way God sees it and to practice it in their churches according to divine dictates. Because the more people we lead the more leaders we need, we must prioritize on developing leaders in our congregations and populate the ministerial landscape with effective Christian leaders. Finally, Anthony prays that God's people in the churches of Christ all over the world will become God's designer-leaders. The book is purposeful, practical and on point!

"The Truth About Worship" is Anthony Osuobeni's seminal book on the definition, discipline and dynamics of worship. The author presents a "truth-approach" to the definition of worship, from the perspective of the One who is worshipped, and not from the viewpoint of the worshipper. In this must-read work you will learn the following; (1) Who is God? (2) What are God's physical qualities? (3) Why did God make man like Himself? (4) The difference between the "body" and the "flesh" in worship, (5) The best time to worship and (6) Worship as divine encounter and more... The author is fast becoming an authority on worship, although he acknowledges God as the sole authority on worship. God has chosen Bishop Anthony Osuobeni for a time such as this to reveal and teach the "sharing of His worth" to the Body of Christ.

The "Truth About The Worship Leader," is another great addition to the ever-growing body of literature on the topic of all topics- WORSHIP! Anthony Osuobeni makes a passionate to church leadership, especially pastors, to recognize the worship leader as a bona fide leader in the Body of Christ. Drawing inspiration from the Old Testament Priestly-Levitical ministry, the author asserts that the worship leader is a fivefold ministry gift, serving alongside the pastoral ministry gift of Ephesians 4:11. This book is a must-have for pastors, worship leaders, worship teams, choirs, Bible Schools, and for all who simply want to learn about this very important ministry of the local assembly.

In Book 2, So Great A Fall, I invite you to come with me into God's courtroom, where God's Advocate, the Holy Spirit, makes the strongest case ever made in the Bible against sinful man through the pen of one of God's finest associates, the apostle Paul. In Romans 1:18-3:20, God exposes the ugly atrocities of man's sins, accusing him of the most heinous crimes in the Book. Sinful man stands before a holy God defenseless, without legal representation. If convicted he will sentenced, not only to a life of bondage under sin, but also banished eternally to hell fire-the worst punishment for his disobedience against God. The main theme of the Book of Romans is the revelation of the righteousness of God as the only means by which man may obtain salvation. In order to perfectly present God's way of salvation, it is vital to first pose the problem and then present the solution. It is essential to prove man's guilt before a righteous God. Sinful man stands condemned before a holy God. A revelation of God's righteousness must be simultaneously attended by a revelation of God's wrath against every ungodliness and unrighteousness of sinful man. The rebellious sinner must be put on notice that God will not tolerate sin-God will judge sin. In order for sinful man to have any chance of being redeemed, an offended God must first be appeased and he must then be reconciled to God. The revelation of God's righteousness is in progress. The exposition of man's essential malady must be complete in order to reveal the righteousness of God. What is interesting in this glorious epic of God's saving grace is the meaningful contrast between God's will and man's disobedience. One author explains it so well; "Good news presupposes bad news; salvation presupposes being lost; mercy presupposes misery; grace presupposes guilt; and saving righteousness presupposes unrighteousness." The Doctrine of Condemnation accentuates God's redemption plan. It was absolutely necessary for God's only begotten Son to leave His mighty throne in glory and bring us redemption's story. God become a man so that men may become like God. He was born of a virgin mother by the supernatural act of the Holy Spirit. He would live a sinless life suited to be God's spotless Lamb which takes away the sins of the world. He would die a sacrificial death on a cruel Romans cross, buried and would rise again the third day, demonstrating the power of God to raise sinful men out of the graveyards of sin to blissful mansions of fellowship with God. He would make a difference in our world and make our world different. This is the message of grace preached by the apostle Paul in all his epistles. Thus it is necessary that Christian doctrine is five in number as proof of the demonstration of grace of God-God's Riches At Christ's Expense. The If You Get Romans God Will Get You series is devoted to expounding these doctrines in book after book until Romans is fully taught from Chapters 1 to 12. I may even go ahead and teach the auxiliary chapters 13 to 16. I personally can't get enough of this book. It's my fascination for life-my Bible within the Bible. I encourage you to get all the books in the series and study them prayerfully. Once you literally get Romans, God will you in every way shape and fashion.

Many revivals or reformations of the Christian faith throughout church history have been occasioned by the quickening of the great kingdom truths imbedded in the Book of Romans. No other book in the Bible contains the goldmine of Redemption's riches like Romans. While Matthew, Mark, Luke and John tell Redemption's story, Romans explains it. The historical significance of this very commanding book cannot be overemphasized. Unquestionably, Romans is the "Mother of all messages" regarding the Gospel of Jesus Christ. My purpose of writing this series is to add my two cents in deciphering the greatest message ever written. Because the message of Romans is sprawling and encompassing, I shall make this a series from chapter 1 to 12. This first book written as a prologue to the epistle, deals with pertinent introductory topics in Romans 1:1-16. You will learn the following; Change as the foundation of the Gospel; the Gospel is Character, Calling and Commitment; the Gospel is a Person, Prophecy and a Person. You will also learn that the Gospel is the apostle's chief assignment, and it is the manifestation of the power of God. Indeed, "If you get Romans, God will get you!"

THE TRUTH ABOUT WORSHIP is a very unique exposition on perhaps, the greatest subject of the Christian faith in general, and our personal relationship with Christ and with His Body-the Church, in particular. The book features Definitions, Dynamics and the Discipline of worship that provide readers with a fuller and richer understanding of the phenomenon of worship. I believe the Lord has helped me to write a very special book that will not only help believers to worship God powerfully, but will also help ministers worship & serve God effectively. This book is a life book-worship is my life (not just a lifestyle). I have literally been writing on the SHAPING OF THE WORTH OF GOD for almost three decades. It is a huge resource material for churches, ministries, Bible schools, seminaries. Worship leaders & their pastors will find this book a huge blessing in developing their relationship to lead their congregations into the presence of God. The presentation style of the book makes it an easy read for both clergy and laity. THE TRUTH ABOUT WORSHIP: "Shaping the Worth of God Book One" is a must-read for church folks and unchurched people as well.Saved since the 1970s, Anthony Osuobeni has served the Body of Christ in numerous capacities as a campus Christian leader, pastor, senior pastor, Christian educator, prayer devotee, and worship leader.
