Many believers struggle in their daily walk with the Lord. Life happens, as we are in the world yet not of it. Pilgrims, strangers, sheep, commanded to follow the Chief Shepard wherever he leads us. Along this path, the straight and narrow path, aligned with difficulties as the Lord prepares the table before us in the presence of our enemies. Then there are the natural sorrows accompanying a sin-plagued world hurling at light speed to its destruction.The Lord Jesus testified of these things, declaring, "the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force." Thus, prophesying of the difficulties his children and servants will have in this fallen sin-stained world as we press forward in the kingdom of heaven.In our frailties and moments of weakness, even we succumb to the dictates of our flesh or the temptations of the enemy.What does our Lord see? What does he know? How will he respond when I go astray? Can I be restored? Will I be restored? When, O Lord, will you come to my rescue?Are you searching for the answer to these questions? Do you have a brother or sister in Christ who feels alienated from our Lord? Then look inside, as the answer to these questions and much more are discussed and explained in great detail.In Part One-Connecting the Chain Links, we enter the time machine to attend a wedding in ancient Israel, then walk with Jesus as he romances his bride. We enter heaven to attend His wedding and mingle with the wedding guests as our Lord executes his judgments upon the wicked nations. Then we see her, our heavenly abode, the New Jerusalem sparkling from the glory of our Father.In Part Two-The Seeker of Lost Sheep, the Chief Shepard identifies his own, seeks out those who have gone astray, lovingly binding their wounds, restoring, refreshing, and releasing them back into the fold.In Part Three-From Milk to Meat, we meet the perfect candidate. Will he come to the Shepard? Then we journey through the hunted forest dressed in the whole armor of our God. Will we win, will we press forward, will it make us stronger?In Part Four-The Final Link in the Chain, we witness the Chief Shepard inspecting the sheep with his rod and staff as they leave the sheepfold. Those who return muddy have their feet washed, but those who returned intoxicated were sent home. The Chief Shepard gently calls the remaining sheep to teach them how to return to the fold with their wool white and clean. "He that hath an ear let him hear."

Do you know anyone who has questions about whether they are traveling the road to heaven or hell? Maybe you are searching for the answer to that question. Which road are you on? Is the roadway filled with potholes? Are the lanes uneven? Are there street signs leading you in the right direction to your destination? So many choices, so little time, which to choose? Predestined to Hell? investigates the two roads, identifying the warning signs on the road to hell and confirming the street signs on the road to heaven. In Part One-Our Identity, we explore the two types of people living on the earth and identify the enemies of God. Next, we discuss whether there is really a hell. Then, we ask the question: Who is Jesus Christ? In Part Two-In Christ Alone by Faith Alone, we declare that Jesus Christ is God our Savior then answer two challenging questions, Condemned? Why God? Finally, but most importantly, we pronounce that there is hope in Jesus and reveal the evidence of saving faith.
