Publisher's Synopsis
Can we know for sure we'll go to heaven when we die? If you ask the average person, you will likely hear, "I hope so!" But when it comes to our eternal destiny and the question of where we stand with God, is hoping so good enough? Can we afford to take a chance that we might be wrong?
Pastor, author and conference speaker Tim Haring understands that people have different perspectives on how the gap between sinful people and a holy God is bridged. Some believe that we will all eventually end up in heaven. Others suggest that only good people will make it. Haring will argue that God paid an enormous price so that our sins could be forgiven, past, present and future. He will demonstrate that, throughout the pages of the Bible, there has always only been only one way people get right with God, and it has nothing to do with what we do for God. It has to do with what he did for us.
After reading When God Walked Alone, the reader will be able to...
- Discover what we need to do in order to begin a relationship with God
- Dismantle some of the confusing and unbiblical ideas surrounding the gospel message
- Discuss our faith in Christ with others in a clear and compelling way
When God Walked Alone was written to give us the assurance we need to have concerning our eternal destiny. It was also written to be a training resource for understanding and communicating the Gospel message with those we love. His clear and simple approach to communicating the gospel message is both easy and effective.
When God Walked Alone is organized around four main points:
- Getting the gospel right: the problem is sin, the solution is Jesus, and the response God is looking for is faith
- The gospel illustrated: in both the Old and New Testaments, we have examples of how people got right with God.
- Getting it wrong: there are many careless, confusing and incorrect ways of understanding or communicating the gospel message
- Getting the message out: we can be an effective witness for Christ with our family, friends and others.
When God Walked Alone is for anyone who wants to know what the Bible has to say about how we get right with God. In other words, it is for anyone who wants an answer to the question: how can I know for sure I'll going to heaven when I die? It was also written to equip Christians to more effectively communicate their faith with others in a clear, gracious and compelling way.
