MEADVILLE, Pa., May 28, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- "A Guide
Through 1 John": an intelligent and reassuring commentary of John's
epistle on eternal life. "A Guide Through 1 John" is the creation
of published author Benjamin
Ramsaur, a husband and father of three who was saved at a
young age and has since had experience in youth and pastoral
ministry, including short-term mission trips to Ukraine and Honduras.
Ramsaur writes with conviction, "John's reassurance to the
saints is twofold: First, he sets forth the testing facts of
righteousness, love, and belief. Hence, if one practices
righteousness, evidences brotherly love, and believes that
Jesus Christ came in the flesh, it
shows one to belong to God. Second, he gives straightforward
indicatives that they indeed are true Christians. We may call these
indicatives 'declaratives'. They declare that the remaining church
members have the Spirit, already know the truth, belong to God,
etc. In short, that they are indeed children of God.
There is something of a balance with this twofold method of
encouragement. On the one hand, if John would have only given the
testing facts without declaratives, then this might have resulted
in the saints becoming unnecessarily troubled concerning their
salvation. They were already perplexed in their faith and so mere
tests might have discouraged them all the more. They needed an
outside voice—John's—to speak what was true about them into their
lives."
Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Benjamin Ramsaur's new book is as inspiring as
it is timely. Ramsaur's book deals with the extremely relevant
issue of who does and does not possess eternal life within the
Spirit"?
This is where the last apostle, John, decides to intervene—and
Ramsaur's clear and insightful writing makes these
faith-strengthening messages accessible to a modern-day audience in
need of the same guidance as those in the apostle's time.
