John Lowstreet

How To Be Blessed By Jesus (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book will help parents and their children appreciate basic Christianity. There is no theological agenda here; the objective is to help young people develop empathy in a relationship with God and with other people. A characteristic of the perilous times predicted by the Apostle Paul in II Timothy chapter three is that people would be fierce. Fierceness appears contagious. There is a need for empathy, and a child's natural empathy needs to be protected and developed. Terms have entered our vocabularies that indicate something is wrong. "School shooting" should be an oxymoron. "Road rage" should be unthinkable and unheard-of. "Mass murder", "terrorism", "bullying", and similar terms should be confined to our history books and not be needed on our headlines. When Jesus Christ instituted the Beatitudes the world was much more brutal than now. These eight blessings based on Christ's behavioral objectives for mankind are the divine remedy for healing adults and inoculating children against the callousness of the world.

Autorenporträt

When John Lowstreet was a child, God answered a prayer for him. He has spent the rest of his life trying to know God personally and to more deeply understand God. John has had various occupations, hobbies and jobs, but only this one quest. More experiences with God are his holy grail.

John started writing in bits and pieces. He finds writing to be a satisfying discipline, and for some reason poetry seems easiest to write. John uses the Swiss cheese approach as in poking holes in a major priority until it yields. Writing has been a priority for years and is beginning to yield.

John's favorite authors are Jules Verne and Jane Austen, and favorite poets are Rudyard Kipling and William Blake.

John studied the Bible to find God, and as he found Him, grew to love Him. The basic teachings and devotional insights of the Bible have increasingly seemed more significant to him than the mass of theological considerations. A Christian minister of retirement age, John loves Christ and the Holy Spirit and treasures intimacy with God.
