    The NOT CONFUSED Series

    By Gavin Cox

    ()

    About this series

    Living in the will of God is not difficult or complicated. As a matter of common sense, living in God's will is God's will. Surely? Why then would our Heavenly Father put it beyond the reach of any of His children? Rather, simple logic dictates that it cannot possibly be the preserve of the spiritual elite, but that living in the will of God is for everyone.

    What you'll discover is that the only real obstacles to living in the will of God are between our ears. This must be so if the grace of God is always sufficient. Obeying Him doesn't rely on our own resources or abilities. Neither is it dependent on any particular situation or circumstance. The Lord always supplies what He later requires. What obstructs is an amalgam of misinformation, misunderstanding and misbelief. Lodged in our thinking and reinforced by those around us, these keep us bogged down in a veritable quagmire of unbelief. Fortunately there is Good News at hand. The Lord has provided a way out of that swamp. The Gospel is the power of God for salvation. It brings light and life, imparts faith and releases the power of the Spirit. Hence the Bible's confident assertion that those who know the truth are set free by it. The Gospel is not information, but revelation that enables transformation. The Gospel is the power of God for salvation, and it delivers.

    This little book is unashamedly a Gospel "how to", with the emphasis on Gospel, because Jesus has already put in the hard yards. Living in the will of God relies on His efforts, and not our own. As the truths of the Gospel are applied, faith arises in hearts and minds are renewed. God is the initiator; we are the responders. He loved first. We love in return because we are loved.

      This book is simple, straight-forward and clear. It will help you read your Bible with understanding. You will know what Jesus did and why, and how it applies to you. You will also be able to approach any passage of Scripture armed with that knowledge, and be able to apply it appropriately to your life and circumstances. WHAT BETA-READERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE BOOK: "This book is potent in the best sense of the word. Easy to read with analogies that cleared the mud in my thinking and left me with such clarity and understanding of my Bible, how to read and apply it. This is not another layer of "How To" to slap on the top of life, but a deep foundational re-alignment in Jesus that will bring everything else into peace and order, regardless of what circumstances we face. Read it!" - DJW "I have just finished proof-reading this book and have been blown away. In a few short pages Gavin has provided concise teaching on understanding the Bible. There is something for everyone; from the new Christian who could be making heavy weather of getting to grips with the Scriptures, to "mature" Christians of many years' standing. His thought processes are clear, the style of writing is conversational without being overly chatty and we are left in no doubt that the entire Bible is about Jesus and the finished work of the cross. I thought that I had a reasonable grasp of the seven covenants and God's redemptive plan for mankind but this book brings fresh understanding and revelation. Highly recommended." - RO THE NOT CONFUSED SERIES: Christianity can be very confusing. There are so many different churches and such varied opinions and approaches. The whole thing seems so complicated that no one seems to know what really matters, and why. No less confusing is that Jesus, the faith's founder, declared it to be simple. He is on record saying that even children can understand spiritual things. The good news is that Jesus is right! Christianity is simple and straight forward. The NOT CONFUSED series cuts through the trappings and trimmings that complicate and confuse. In this series peripheral issues are put in perspective and the main thing is made to be the main thing once again. If you want to be clear on the essentials of Christianity then these books are for you!

      The Gospel is the good news about who Jesus is, what He did, and why He did it. What He did was so extraordinary, and its impact so enormous, that it will effect everything for all time. This book describes the richness of the Gospel, and outlines what the Gospel does when believed, for the Gospel believed is the power of God unleashed in one's life. This book explores exactly what the Gospel is - what is meant by this Good News. It then goes on to explore what the Gospel does, for in his introduction to the book of Romans, Paul the apostle tells us that, "the Gospel is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes". As you read you'll discover why the Gospel is timelessly and universally applicable, how it saves, and what the innumerable benefits of that salvation are. The Gospel's greatness lies in the simple fact that it is the continuous application of that which the Lord accomplished through the crucifixion, death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. "Why the Gospel is the Best News Ever!" takes time to celebrate the rich, multi-faceted, eternal beauty of who Jesus is, and of what He has done!

      Living in the will of God is not difficult or complicated. As a matter of common sense, living in God's will is God's will. Surely? Why then would our Heavenly Father put it beyond the reach of any of His children? Rather, simple logic dictates that it cannot possibly be the preserve of the spiritual elite, but that living in the will of God is for everyone. What you'll discover is that the only real obstacles to living in the will of God are between our ears. This must be so if the grace of God is always sufficient. Obeying Him doesn't rely on our own resources or abilities. Neither is it dependent on any particular situation or circumstance. The Lord always supplies what He later requires. What obstructs is an amalgam of misinformation, misunderstanding and misbelief. Lodged in our thinking and reinforced by those around us, these keep us bogged down in a veritable quagmire of unbelief. Fortunately there is Good News at hand. The Lord has provided a way out of that swamp. The Gospel is the power of God for salvation. It brings light and life, imparts faith and releases the power of the Spirit. Hence the Bible's confident assertion that those who know the truth are set free by it. The Gospel is not information, but revelation that enables transformation. The Gospel is the power of God for salvation, and it delivers. This little book is unashamedly a Gospel "how to", with the emphasis on Gospel, because Jesus has already put in the hard yards. Living in the will of God relies on His efforts, and not our own. As the truths of the Gospel are applied, faith arises in hearts and minds are renewed. God is the initiator; we are the responders. He loved first. We love in return because we are loved.

    I am an entrepreneur, author, husband and father, but my passion is the Gospel. My primary expression of ministry is in the leadership of the Highway Christian Church in East London, South Africa. Having been in ministry for several decades, it was my joy some years ago to discover the Gospel. I had been living in a condemnation-riddled mixture of law and grace, and the Gospel's freedoms have revolutionized my life and ministry completely. SoMuchGoodNews? Because the Gospel is the Best News Ever!
