See for yourself how the gospel is more than eternal salvation--it sets you free from sin's defeat and empowers you to experience God's abundant life.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is the door to eternal life, but what difference does it make once we're inside God's kingdom? Jerry Bridges says the gospel is the very lifeblood of our walk with God. It is the key to our salvation, for sure, but it is also the power for our daily progress in holiness. The Gospel for Real Life will help you:

* Experience freedom from the grip of sin and know the joy of pursuing holiness

* Revel in God's acceptance of you and participate in His grace as a daily reality

* Expose the subtle acids of legalism in your life and enjoy the liberty of the cross

* Discover how to "preach the gospel to yourself daily" and so partake of its continuous transforming power

* Carry the true fullness of the gospel to a desperately needy world around you

This new paperback edition includes a study guide to help you experience every day "the unsearchable riches of Christ" that are available to us in the gospel

Author Jerry Bridges does something very special in this book. He takes sometimes very complex thinking and distils it into very simple language. Illustrated by practical examples, he talks very ably about reconciliation, assurance, sanctification and mercy by way of teaching us real truths about the unsearchable riches of Christ. I found this a challenging read in the sense that it asked hard questions of the reader, but an enjoyable read in the way that truths were illustrated with examples, the Bible was expounded and the Saviour commended. This is not a book either that is detached from current times. Examples are drawn from modern times, confronting modern thinking, current standards and the church?s place in the world as a beacon of hope and uprightness. I enjoyed a section that highlighted particularly God?s provision, protection, encouragement, comfort and discipline. We often forget God?s almighty hand and forget sincere praise and thanks in our regular petitions. This is a great book about the great challenge of the Gospel in confronting us with the realities of our lives and of the eternity to come. I would recommend the study guide published as part of this publication ? it is excellent for bible study groups to look at the book and the source Scriptures in more detail. This is a book I will share with others.
