David Jeremiah – författare

En unik, heltäckande guide till vad Bibeln säger om framtiden. • Varför är de bibliska profetiorna viktiga att känna till idag? • Vilka tecken och händelser kommer att föregå slutet på denna värld? • Vilka av dessa tecken har redan inträffat och vilka lever vi i nu? Vad säger Bibeln om Israel, Europa, Ryssland och Babylon i vår tid? • Vilka profetiska tecken ser vi just nu när det gäller omoral, islam, förföljelse och kyrkans apati? • Hur nära ligger uppryckandet, vedermödan och Antikrists framträdande i Guds tidstabell, och hur kan vi veta att vilddjurets märke kan uppenbaras redan inom bara några få år? • När inträffar Harmagedon, vad innebär Jesu återkomst, Tusenårsriket och hur ser de nya himlarna och en ny jord ut? David Jeremiah, en av världens mest respekterade bibellärare, förklarar på ett enkelt och lättförståeligt sätt Bibelns budskap om tidens tecken och ändens tid. Han visar inte bara att Guds ord innehåller specifika förutsägelser om framtiden, utan även hur Bibeln uppmuntrar och ger hopp mitt i vår tids osäkerhet och kaos.

Över 500 sidor sprängstoff." / Sven Almkvist, Världen idag "Som bibeltroende har Jeremiah en teologi, som är djupt förankrad i dagens helt dominerande internationella pingstkarismatiska teologi. Tyvärr är det många pastorer och teologer i [Pingst och EFK] som i dag har fjärmat sig från delar av den internationella teologin ... I svensk andlig mylla behöver vi den tydlighet som Jeremiah står för. / Magnus Jonegård

We have almost become immune to the reality of today's headlines: from terrorism to natural disasters to political upheavals to refugees to disease to nuclear threats to failing economies...and the list goes on. People are thinking and asking, "Is this the end?" Nobody can answer that question specifically. In fact, Jesus warned about setting dates for the end of the age. But this we can say: Never have so many world-level events developed so rapidly and with such catastrophic implications. These events bring to mind the apostle Paul's words about "birth pangs" before the end of the age. In Is This the End? Study Guide, Pastor David Jeremiah looks at ten major developments in America and the world that almost defy imagination. Just a few years ago, nobody could have imagined the things we hear about daily in the news. We need to understand these events: what they are, what the Bible says about them, and how we should respond as followers of Christ. Follow Dr. Jeremiah as he unfolds five developments in America and five developments on the international stage–all of which beg the question, "Is this the end?"

Jesus lived a life that wasn't just amazing. It was beyond amazing.  And we can too.   Why were people in the first century so drawn to Jesus of Nazareth? His powerful miracles and challenging teachings, for sure. But, interestingly, Jesus never charged his followers with producing miracles or creating teachings of their own. What Jesus did empower us to do is to display his character. He told us to become like him.  In A Life Beyond Amazing, bestselling author Dr. David Jeremiah  uncovers how God Himself became a human being to demonstrate the life that is possible – a life beyond amazing. The traits that Jesus demonstrated in His life were traits he demonstrated all the time, because he was empowered by the Spirit of God who filled Him.  This life-changing study challenges you to make nine important decisions based on the qualities of character in Galatians 5:22-23, called the Fruit of the Spirit:   Three of these have to do with our relationship with ourselves (love, joy, peace) Three deal with interactions with other people (endurance, compassion, generosity)  Three of them focus on our relationship with God (integrity, humility, self-discipline)    A Life Beyond Amazing Study Guide outlines the main subjects and Scriptures covered in each lesson, gives a thorough overview of Dr. Jeremiah's teachings, and provides extensive application questions to help small groups delve deeply into the Bible.   Lessons include:  A Life Beyond Amazing A Life of Love A Life of Joy A Life of Peace A Life of Endurance A Life of Compassion A Life of Generosity A Life of Integrity A Life of Humility A Life of Self-Discipline A God-Inspired Life

Jesus is the eternal KingAt first glance, it seems surprising that Jesus would call a man like Matthew to become one of His disciples. As a small-time tax collector, Matthew would have been despised by the Jewish people, who viewed those in the profession as traitors to Rome. But the fact that Matthew was educated, literate, and also familiar with Jewish law and customs made him the ideal candidate to not only accompany Jesus during His earthly ministry but also record all that he witnessed. The result is the Gospel we have today. Matthew shows how Jesus, as the promised Messiah, is worthy of our hope. He shows how Jesus, as the eternal King, is worthy of our complete devotion . . . and our complete submission to Him.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.

Jesus is always at work.Mark was not one of Jesus’ original disciples, but he was present at the birth of the church and had a strong relationship with Peter. After Peter was put to death during the reign of Emperor Nero, Mark decided to record everything Peter had told him about Jesus and create his Gospel account of the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. Mark shows us that no matter how chaotic our world becomes, we can always cling to the hope and peace that we have in Jesus. Even in the darkest of times, we can rely on the light of Christ to see us through. And while the path to following Jesus is not always easy, it is always worth it.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.

Jesus is the Great Physician.According to the apostle Paul, Luke was a “beloved physician” who traveled with him on several of his missionary journeys. However, Luke’s real passion was in setting down an orderly account that detailed the birth, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus. This was a task for which Luke was well suited, for he was both a thoughtful man of science and a great observer of people. Luke thus took great care in relating the information he collected, but he also emphasized the care that Jesus, as the Great Physician, extended to people everywhere–both Jewish and Gentile alike. Luke shows the high value Jesus places on rescuing all people from their sins–no matter how “far gone” those people might seem. And he shows how Jesus was willing to give up His place in heaven to come down to earth as a sacrifice for the sins of every person who will receive Him.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.

Jesus came to give us life.Jesus called twelve men to be His disciples, but three fishermen–Peter, James, and John–shared a special relationship with Him. They were given direct access to some of the more pivotal events in Jesus’ ministry, such as the transfiguration, His raising of Lazarus from the dead, and His agony in the Garden of Gethsemane. John’s account thus gives us a unique glimpse from one of Jesus’ closest disciples into the significance of the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. John reveals how Jesus came to provide “living water” to quench our deep spiritual thirst for the things of God. He shows how Jesus is the “bread of life” who satisfies our deep spiritual hunger. And he reveals how Jesus is the only way we can obtain that living water and bread of life, for “no one comes to the Father” except through Him.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.

Luke's record in Acts reveals that God places a premium on the spread of the gospel. He blesses our efforts to make disciples of all nations, one person at a time, and sends us His Spirit to guide our words, give us wisdom, and bolster our courage.We also learn that God is with us even during times of persecution and opposition--and He uses those times to sharpen us and make us effective instruments for His work.Each of this study's twelve lessons is clearly organized to include:Getting Started: An opening question to introduce you to the lesson.Setting the Stage: A short reflection to explain the context of the study.Exploring the Text: The Scripture reading for the lesson with related study questions.Reviewing the Story: Questions to help you identify key points in the reading.Applying the Message: Questions to help you apply the key ideas to their lives.Reflecting on the Meaning: A closing reflection on the key teachings in the lesson.—ABOUT THE SERIES—The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah's forty-plus years of commitment in teaching the Word of God.

Jesus is our salvation...Follow Dr. Jeremiah through the book of Romans in a chapter-by-chapter study that will help you understand what it meant to the people at the time it was written, and what it means to Christians today. The apostle Paul makes his appearance in the Bible as an ambitious Pharisee who is determined to destroy the early church. But his religious world comes crashing down when he meets the risen Jesus on the road to Damascus. Paul is never the same, and soon he is traveling across the world to spread the gospel. In his letter to a church in Rome, he outlines the central truths and doctrines of the Christian faith.Romans reads like a first-century course in theology, culminating in the incredible truth that God has made a way—through the sacrifice of Christ—for all to find salvation.Each of this study's twelve lessons is clearly organized to include:Getting Started: An opening question to introduce you to the lesson.Setting the Stage: A short reflection to explain the context of the study.Exploring the Text: The Scripture reading for the lesson with related study questions.Reviewing the Story: Questions to help you identify key points in the reading.Applying the Message: Questions to help you apply the key ideas to their lives.Reflecting on the Meaning: A closing reflection on the key teachings in the lesson.—ABOUT THE SERIES—The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah's forty-plus years of commitment in teaching the Word of God.

Living as citizens of Christ's Kingdom...Follow Dr. Jeremiah through the book of 1 Corinthians in a chapter-by-chapter study that will help you understand what it meant to the people at the time it was written, and what it means to Christians today. The apostle Paul founded many churches in the Roman Empire, including one in the prominent city of Corinth. As the commercial capital of the region, its citizens lived decadent lifestyles. Paul wrote his first letter to the Corinthians to urge them to live as citizens of God's kingdom and separate themselves from the sinful practices of the world around them.Paul offers practical guidance on each issue they are facing, revealing to them—and us today—what it means to be a member of the Body of Christ and truly love one another as Jesus first loved us.Each of this study's twelve lessons is clearly organized to include:Getting Started: An opening question to introduce you to the lesson.Setting the Stage: A short reflection to explain the context of the study.Exploring the Text: The Scripture reading for the lesson with related study questions.Reviewing the Story: Questions to help you identify key points in the reading.Applying the Message: Questions to help you apply the key ideas to their lives.Reflecting on the Meaning: A closing reflection on the key teachings in the lesson.—ABOUT THE SERIES—The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah's forty-plus years of commitment in teaching the Word of God.

God's grace cannot be earned...Follow Dr. Jeremiah through the letter of Galatians in a chapter-by-chapter study that will help you understand what it meant to the people at the time it was written, and what it means to Christians today. Paul's letter is written to those who had been deceived into believing they had to practice the laws of the Old Testament to receive salvation. Paul is adamant that God's grace cannot be earned, regardless of how many commandments we try to obey. Only our faith in Jesus provides the way to eternal life. "Man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ...for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified" (Galatians 2:16).This knowledge gives us freedom from the pressure of trying to be "good enough" for God.Each of this study's twelve lessons is clearly organized to include:Getting Started: An opening question to introduce you to the lesson.Setting the Stage: A short reflection to explain the context of the study.Exploring the Text: The Scripture reading for the lesson with related study questions.Reviewing the Story: Questions to help you identify key points in the reading.Applying the Message: Questions to help you apply the key ideas to their lives.Reflecting on the Meaning: A closing reflection on the key teachings in the lesson.—ABOUT THE SERIES—The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah's forty-plus years of commitment in teaching the Word of God.

Paul’s reminder of our identity in Christ.Ephesus was located in Asia Minor, a region full of spiritual darkness and the site of a clash taking place between Christianity and pagan religions. However, the apostle Paul saw an opportunity to advance the kingdom of God. In the letter to the Ephesians, Paul walks the believers through their spiritual inheritance in Christ. This inheritance moves them from death to life and into God’s family – something so much better than anything they had in their former lives. Because of this, they need to “walk worthy of their calling,” understand and use their spiritual gifts, and put on the armor of God.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.

Experience joy in any situation.The believers in Philippi were experiencing both concern for Paul while he was in prison and spiritual discouragement because of these circumstances. Paul wrote this loving letter to encourage them in their faith and to remind them that there was a greater future in store for him and for them outside this world. Paul even admits the tension he feels between living to continue sharing the gospel and dying so he can be with Christ. This mindset allowed Paul to remain joyful in the midst of suffering and he knew the same would be true of the Philippians believers as well.The Jeremiah Bible Study Series captures Dr. David Jeremiah’s forty-plus years of commitment to teaching the Word of God.

The apostle Paul may have never visited the small town of Colossae, located in modern-day Turkey, but he was linked to the congregation through a coworker named Epaphras. This man came to visit Paul while he was imprisoned in Rome to deliver troubling news about destructive teachings that had taken root in the Colossian fellowship. Paul penned a letter in response, urging the believers to experience the freedom they had found in Christ, recognize their salvation came through the Lordship of Jesus alone, and reflect the light of Christ in their lives. Paul also penned a short personal letter to a Colossian believer named Philemon, urging him to forgive a slave who had departed from him and receive him back as a fellow brother. Paul's words in these letters compel us to remember everything that Jesus has done for us and treat others as we want to be treated.David Jeremiah is the founder of Turning Point, an international ministry committed to providing Christians with sound Bible teaching through radio and television, the Internet, live events, and resource materials and books.

The apostle Paul founded many churches in the Roman Empire, including one in the Greek city of Thessalonica, which he visited during his second missionary journey. At that time Paul had been forced to flee the city, so he sent his coworker Timothy back to check on the congregation. Paul was encouraged at Timothy's report but felt compelled to address misconceptions they had about the return of Christ. In each letter, Paul stressed that Jesus is coming back, that believers who are alive at the time will be gathered to Him, and that they needed to maintain a holy life and avoid idleness as they waited. Paul's words likewise reveal to all believers today that Jesus will return—but that we need to keep doing His work in the meantime.David Jeremiah is the founder of Turning Point, an international ministry committed to providing Christians with sound Bible teaching through radio and television, the Internet, live events, and resource materials and books.

The apostle Paul founded many churches in the Roman Empire, but it is clear he did not do this work alone. Rather, he relied on trusted companions such as Timothy and Titus to support the ongoing work in these communities.As Paul neared the end of his life, he wrote personal letters to these men to encourage them in their ministry and provide final guidelines for how live and lead for Christ. In particular, we find him urging these men to maintain purity in the church, faithfully endure for the gospel, preach sound doctrine, pursue godliness, and maintain order as they built up other leaders.

The Christian life is to be lived looking forward and with our eyes fixed on the race in front of us—not looking back over at our shoulder at the other runners or the past. In the Bible, the apostle said as much when he wrote,  Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.  Philippians 3:12-14 (NKJV) Dr. Jeremiah draws on this key verse to show that while it is good at times to look back, we need to make sure that we don't go back and allow the past to dictate our future. We need to celebrate our good memories but also celebrate our bad memories with finality—thanking God for the lessons that He has taught us through the experience and committing to use those lesson to make positive changes in our lives.   Learn how God wants to: Allow your past memories to cultivate your dream Give you divine direction Plant within you a life purpose Equip you with tools to overcome fear Grant you great personal accomplishment Find a mission that will outlive your life  Don’t get stuck in your past failures or current comforts. Let Forward be the step-by-step plan of action you’ve needed to move past where you are to where you want to be, and move FORWARD! Sessions include:  Dream: Seize Your Tomorrow Today  Focus: Make Your One Thing the Main Thing  Risk: Get Out of Your Safe Zone  Pursue: Chase Your Dream  Believe: Get Your Mind Right  Finish: You're Not Done Until You're Done   Designed for use with the Forward Video Study available on DVD or streaming video, sold separately.
