Fullness of Christ Grace-based, hope-filled, love-motived, this book is filled with encouragement to grow up into the fullness of Christ which is the birthright of every born again child of God. What is Christ's Ultimate Intention with us? I am glad you asked! The Ultimate Intention of the Church is a mature disciple: * who knows God intimately and personally (John 17:3), * who accepted the discipleship call and carries the cross daily (Luke 9:23, Galatians 2:20), * whose mind and character is continuously renewed and transformed by the Spirit and the Word of God (Romans 12:2, 2 Corinthians 3:18, Galatians 5:22-23), * who grows and matures into the fullness of Christ (Ephesians 4:11-16, Hebrews 5:11-14, 6:1-3), * and ultimately multiplies disciples according to the Christ's and the apostles' discipleship model (Matthew 28:19-20, 2 Timothy 2:2). As a Christian, you have the very DNA of God inside of you. The Bible tells us: "His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness" (2 Peter 1:3). Therefore, spiritual growth and Christian maturity should be the passion of every child of God. However, the reality in many churches seems to indicate otherwise. In this book, you will: * Experience the power of love as you never did before and discover ways to practice walking in love. * Learn about the theological foundations of the Cross. Receive guidance to embrace the cross and experience the power of forgiveness, the power of mind renewal, and the power of intimacy with Jesus in your life. * Discover the main ingredients for spiritual growth and how to apply them in your walk with Christ. * Be forewarned about the danger of spiritual immaturity and why you should not ignore it. Realize that you are called to become everything that God intends for you. * Learn to live from the new heart Jesus gave you. Understand that you have experienced a spiritual heart transplant-the greatest exchange ever. Find ways to live based on your new identity, thus experiencing a victorious and fulfilling Christian life. By reading this book, the passion for Christ will be rekindled in your heart. "Until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:13). "This insightful proclamation is not just for the individual but also for the church, the whole body of Christ learning to share His life in common as our source and supply for living to God's glory. If trying hard to be like Jesus is wearing you out, you may want to read about trusting Jesus to live His life through you by His indwelling Spirit. The words and ideas in this book are not just for learning but for living!" - Steve Pettit, President of One In Christ, Alachua, FL "Valy Vaduva's book, Fullness of Christ, is a much-needed volume on the importance of Great Commission discipleship and spiritual growth... Biblical teaching that overlooks union with Christ and the deeper meaning of the Cross ends up being merely academic, legalistic, or both. This book gives clear teaching on grace-oriented, Christ-centered discipleship with helpful explanations of related terminology, doctrines, and disciplines. I commend this book with Valy and Elena Vaduva's life coaching and discipleship training ministry. -Dr. John Woodward, Director of Counseling and Training Grace Fellowship International, Pigeon Forge, TN
