Chapter 14: The Gift of Jesus

Page 11

I suspect some of you are now angry at the four non-characteristics of Jesus shown in the table above. If so, did you start at the beginning of this

book? An angry person would come from three distinct sources. 1) How dare you. This means you really haven’t read the first thirteen chapters and are ignorant of the many Bible scriptures previously cited that support the four facts above. 2) I’ve read the chapters, but still don’t believe you. This

means you don’t believe God’s Holy Word. 3) I’ve read the book from the front and studied the scriptures, but don’t accept this teaching because it goes against what my church teaches. This means that the word of God is less important than the doctrine of your church. Take a deep breath and

open up your heart to God’s Word. Maybe you need to take a break?

Are you ready to proceed with a calm mind? Okay. Let’s look at the phases of spiritual influence on man that have transpired or are in process.
