Keeping Your Balance looks at the challenge that Christians face in maintaining a biblical balance in seven key areas of life. These include the following: family and ministry; self-denial and liberty; patience and confrontation; the temporal and the eternal; the inner man and the outer man; reality and hope; and striving and trusting. In each of these categories, the author first highlights the balance that is clearly set forth for the believer in Scripture. Second, a discussion is presented of the symptoms that may be manifested when an individual loses balance in a particular area. The practical life consequences of that imbalance are also examined. An understanding of these tensions is absolutely vital for living a life to the glory of God.
Every biblical author from Moses through Jeremiah penned their words in pictograms that were later converted to Aramaic characters after Judah was exiled to Babylon. This transformation partially obscured the Hebrew scriptures and veiled their relationship with the New Testament.Jesus said, ¿Moses wrote of me.¿ The pictograms in Genesis 1:1 will embolden Jewish believers in Yeshua, Israel¿s Messiah, by explicitly revealing that Jesus actively participated in making the heavens and the earth as Elohim¿s Son.The pictograms of the first two chapters also unmask the first covenant God made with Adam and Eve and is available to us through a personal relationship with the last Adam, Jesus Christ. Discover God¿s love for Adam and Eve with no condemnation; Adam¿s protection for Eve and her God-given ability to fight for and see what Adam didn¿t see; Adam¿s true responsibility before God; and the innocence of Eve that sets women free ¿ revelations that are crucial to how God values women! This foundation for this spoken faith walk is a bridge between the old and new testaments equipping you with critical tools that can unlock new insights into God¿s anointed Hebrew covenant and breathe new life into familiar passages.
