| | | | | When Christ Is Our Sufficiency Robert Schaetzle
“And he is the head of the body, the church. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything he might be preeminent. For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell.” Colossians 1:18-19 ESV
Remember when as a child, or even later in high school or college when you had concerns about who you might become? Maybe you sought out the counsel of someone you really trusted to be honest with you about your future.
As followers of Jesus, we’re now under the guidance and divine purpose of the very One who created us. In view of this, I find myself asking, Is Christ’s preeminence in me obvious to others? Is it His Spirit that I’m listening to? Is it my desire for His light to be recognized in my daily life?
One of the first lessons to learn in walking with Jesus is to recognize He knows us better than we know ourselves. Recognizing this, we need to learn to be intellectually honest and completely transparent with God—especially in prayer. He knows everything, anyway, so be open. We do not need to fear our weaknesses, frailties, or persecution.
“For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” (2 Corinthians 12:10).
All the fullness of God, along with His omnipotent power is there to direct, teach us and to lead us in the best way as He desires, (cf. Proverbs 16: 9). For certain, we have God’s sufficiency in us. The challenge is to fully understand and surrender to His spiritual promptings. Our further strength and direction come from a daily digesting of God’s Word for our necessary spiritual nourishment necessary. We must decrease so that Jesus may increase, (cf. John 3:30).
Father, thank you for nurturing us to want You to be preeminent.

Jon von Ernst

Always Free E-Book Share with Anyone Who Does Not Believe or Encourage the Faith of Those Who Do Believe. Send to inmates direct from Amazon.
Perfect to equip the believer for defending their faith. Ideal to send to a skeptical friend, family member or inmate (free e-book or $3.66 print copy). Great for teens and young adults who have never reviewed the objective evidence for God's existence and identity. God has used Gravity to help lead many to Christ, even atheists. It is being used in over 1,300 prisons, numerous college campuses and online in several languages.
"After reading your book, and being that I’m a cop, the evidence was compelling so the choice became easy. Thank you for being a big part of saving my life and seeing the truth about Jesus. My life has drastically changed for the better!!! I’ve handed out many of your books already, and can hardly wait to give more away! Thank you. And God bless!"
"For anyone on the fence, backsliding, or doubtful this book clarifies misunderstandings, perceived contradictions, and outright lies. I was led to read this book at a time when I thought I was over Jesus, but truth defeat lies every time and never forsakes the believer.”
"If false, Christianity is an irrelevant hoax. If true, Christianity is the most important fact for every human being. This little book concisely shows you why Christianity is true and what that means for you. No fluff, just the facts!" Dr. Frank Turek author/co-author of I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist
Maybe you know someone in prison or just a lost soul that you love who needs to trust in Jesus as their Lord and Savior or needs to have their faith encouraged? You can ship single paperback copies directly from Amazon for $3.66 each to an inmate or anyone. For inmates, you just need their facility name, address, inmates name and id number. Most prisons and jails will accept packages directly from places like Amazon. If you are a member of Amazon prime it would ship for free. Just add the person's shipping address when you check out and it goes directly to them. If you try to send it from a personal address, it will be rejected.
GO HERE to order your copy of Gravity to be sent to your lost friend or family member who is (incarcerated or not) and needs Jesus. Offer them the gift of eternal life in Christ for $3.66. What a great investment.
"Michael, I have ordered books a couple times now and have had nothing but good responses from the inmates that read it. I had one approach me with tears in his eyes thanking me for giving him a book that answered questions he has always wondered about regarding the Bible. I had another one ask me for another copy so he could mail it to his family to read. Another one told me that everyone in his pod was passing it around reading it, the cover made people ask what he was reading. He then asked if I could get more. I would like twenty more books please. It's nice to be able to give a concise apologetic at an affordable price." Gordon, a prison guard who has ordered books."
An in-depth study of the factual evidence leads a person to realize how little faith they need to believe, while it gives them great faith at the same time.
