Because we live in a time in which our lives are dominated and even manipulated by the world of social media, the internet and television, it has become increasingly more difficult to sift through all the information and opinions for truth. It has become not only easy, but commonplace to manipulate and distort facts and even the images we see.

Produktbeschreibung
Because we live in a time in which our lives are dominated and even manipulated by the world of social media, the internet and television, it has become increasingly more difficult to sift through all the information and opinions for truth. It has become not only easy, but commonplace to manipulate and distort facts and even the images we see. Modern society has even found it necessary to alter much of what we thought was already accurate, from terms we used-to books we've read, from the science we learned-to the biology we possess, from statues-to historical events, everything can be changed or even completely eliminated. It should be no surprise that historically accepted theology and biblical truth has also been found on the cutting room floor of organized religion. This has left a chasm of distorted beliefs and watered down preaching about the doctrine of salvation and eternal security. Fortunately, God already planned for this and had the apostle John write a letter, simply called First John, that would deal with this topic and bring truth into focus for everyone who would read it. A Plea for Spiritual Honesty utilizes all the writings of John to reveal the truth about salvation that he gleaned over years of following Jesus and listening and observing him as he ministered to people. John was able to share a unique perspective on this vital topic of salvation and how a person can know whether they are truly a Christian or simply deceiving themselves. John is clear about the distinctives that reveal salvation and makes a plea for spiritual honesty in his writing. This book looks at those areas that John laid out as the indicators of a person with genuine faith so we may "know we have eternal life."
Autorenporträt
Thomas Vent is an ordained minister, church planter, counselor and writer. He emerged from being raised in a broken home in a small town with 3 other siblings, to serve in various church ministries for over twenty-five years. After graduating from college with a bachelor's degree in theology, Tom developed a burden for the practical exposition of scriptures, which he maintained consistently throughout his ministries as a pastor. Whether speaking from the pulpit, teaching a class or sharing by writing, he loves to explain Biblical truth by interjecting life experiences, real world events and personal insights. More than anything else, Tom feels a deep devotion to and love for God's word and enjoys showing how it reveals the wonders of Christ throughout. He currently resides in the Midwest with his wife and high school sweetheart of 41 years, Cynthia. He was blessed with 5 children and 16 grandchildren (so far) who constantly keep him laughing and running around. When he is not working or studying, Tom can usually be found just enjoying life with his family, kids and grandchildren.
