Atl.,
February 5, 2008 – Pastor Raney and Lady Carla Antoine have
taken to heart II Timothy 2:15 in their latest book, Christian
Manual: A Tool for Christian Discipleship.
“Our main focus continues to motivate us to glorify God in
every way possible,” says Pastor Raney and Lady Carla
Antoine, by “studying to shew ourselves approved unto God,
being workmen that needeth not to be ashamed, and rightly dividing the
Word of truth.”
The
Christian life should be one of daily growth toward spiritual maturity
in Jesus Christ. As newborn babes, we are to desire the
“sincere milk” of the Word of God so that we can
grow stronger in our faith walk. The Christian
Manual was written to aid new and even mature
Christians in their relationships with the Lord. It provides
Scripture-based information on biblical principles, and shows readers
how to become transformed into the image of Christ and how to develop
the mind of Christ.
The Christian
Manual is very flexible and is designed to be used
along with your Bible for individual study, in a group setting, or
under the direction of a mentor or friend.
The Christian
Manual is a comprehensive study on the following
topics:
1. Terms
and Language Associated with the Christian Faith
2.
Responsibilities of the
Disciple or Follower of Jesus Christ
3.
Fundamentals of Church
Etiquette
4.
Complicated Doctrinal
Issues
5.
Books of the Bible
6.
Basic Tenets of the
Christian Faith
“This
manual or teaching guide focuses on biblical doctrinal truth and has
principles to transform and enhance lives…”
—Dr.
Marilyn Diggs, associate dean and
instructor at Christian Bible College
“This
is a necessary tool for new believers, those who are rededicating their
lives to Christ, or those looking to refresh and renew their passion
for the tenets of our faith.”
—Alex
O. Ellis, minister of the Gospel and
award-winning author of
Restoring the Male Image
Detailed
examinations of the names, titles, and characteristics of God, Jesus
Christ, and the Holy Spirit are included in the Christian
Manual. Your spirit will be ignited with a
new sense of excitement, purpose, and motivation for living a life
according to God’s Word.
