Produktbeschreibung

The hope of this book is to make learning about the essential tenets of the Christian faith enjoyable. We want you to be excited about encountering God. Confirmation class is a time to explore what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Also, Confirmation will help you understand how the relationship you have with Christ leads to the responsibility you will have as a church member. When a person has completed the reading of this book we hope that they will think very seriously about the following questions. The Five Essential Questions of Christian Faith 1) "Do you acknowledge yourself to be a sinner in the sight of God, justly deserving God's displeasure, and without hope except in God's sovereign mercy?" 2) "Do you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior of sinners, and do you receive and depend upon Christ alone for your salvation as He is offered freely in the Gospel?" 3) "Do you now resolve and promise, in humble reliance upon the grace of the Holy Spirit, that you will endeavor to live as becomes a follower of Christ?" 4) "Do you promise to serve Christ in His Church by supporting and participating in its service to God and its ministry to others to the best of your ability?" 5) "Do you submit yourself to the government and discipline of the Church and promise to further its purity and peace?"

Autorenporträt

Chris Robinson was born in 1956, in Northwich, Cheshire. He grew up on a council estate and graduated in 1988 from Crewe and Alsager College of Higher Education with a degree in Creative Arts / Combined Studies. In between these years, he was a trainee reporter and photographer, and moved to Germany when Margaret Thatcher came to power, finding employment with a US military community newspaper. He has three older brothers, a younger sister, and is the son of factory worker parents. He co-authored the book The Road to Recovery (2011) with Alan Boden, so Can't Pay, Won't Pay (2023) is his first lone venture. He remains a staunch socialist, having seen first-hand the darker elements of the social and education sector (qualifying as a teacher in 1995) and was a prominent member of the anti-poll tax campaign.
