He was halfway through seminary when he realized that no one there knew \u003cb\u003ethe entirety of the gospel\u003c\/b\u003e, including himself. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe result? Despite his desperate desire to be \u003cb\u003efree from sin\u003c\/b\u003e, and all his whole-hearted attempts to repent and do better, he could never shake his \u003cb\u003eaddiction to porn\u003c\/b\u003e, his \u003cb\u003etendency to be lazy\u003c\/b\u003e, and a wide variety of other \u003cb\u003eself-destructive behaviors\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003cp\u003eFor years, he was suspicious that he had to be missing something. According to scripture, the Gospel had to be better than this. The Christian life was supposed to be characterized by victory, but mostly he had experienced routine defeat. And the best advice the Church had to offer was either to \u003cb\u003etry harder\u003c\/b\u003e or to \u003cb\u003estop trying so hard\u003c\/b\u003e. Neither worked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt turns out that he was missing something -- \u003ci\u003ethe gospel\u003c\/i\u003e. He had read it a thousand times in his Bible, but never actually \u003ci\u003esaw \u003c\/i\u003eit. And learning it changed his life forever, just as it is supposed to change \u003ci\u003eeveryone\u003c\/i\u003e who believes it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe problem in the Church today is not a lack of self-discipline, prayer, bible study, etc. Nor is it that Christians are still unwilling or unrepentant. The problem, at its core, is that we do not fully understand what Christ has done.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo put it frankly, there is a crucial piece of the gospel that even most Christians have never heard. \"[T]he truth will set you free\" (John 8:32), and this book is meant to show you how.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis is NOT a book about \u003ci\u003emore doing\u003c\/i\u003e. This is a book about \u003ci\u003ebetter believing\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/b\u003eIt is biblical, it is practical, and it is utterly good news.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you want the freedom that you know God has promised you; if you want to bear the fruit of the Spirit in all circumstances; and \u003cb\u003eif you're tired of the endless cycle of trying and failing to obey God\u003c\/b\u003e, then this book is for you. The Gospel is every bit as powerful as you have always known it ought to be but could never quite see how.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47779941777559,"sku":"9798582003106","price":2099.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798582003106.webp?v=1778041190","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/no-longer-i-the-power-of-the-gospel-like-you-have-never-heard-it-before-9798582003106","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
