Look Behind The Facade
$29.98
Islam has hidden behind a faAade of goodness for too long. Too many people are falling for the sanitized and false version and continually suggest that Islam is a religion of peace and goodwill. Perhaps due to the fear of terror or familiarity, we seem only able to question the veracity of Christianity but shy away from asking the hard questions of Islam. The time has come to look behind that faAade and view the malignity at the core of Islam. If the free world hobnobs with a repressive system, it will itself become repressive. Make no mistake about it, if upholding freedom in free societies continues to be confused with permissiveness where everything is allowed to flourish, and the distinction between right and wrong continues to be blurred, then like a toad sitting in a warm pan that will boil, the free world will be cooked – using its own fire. Orthodox Islam is the force driving terrorism and unless it is discredited intellectually, the fire of hate and death that it has unleashed will not go away. The terrorists are not abusing Islam; they are the true Muslims who are overwhelmingly supported by the Quran and the examples of their Prophet, Muhammad. Other Muslims are in a state of denial. If Islam is good and true and if reasonable people can find it to be so, why does it entrap converts with the threat of death for apostasy? Why do Muslims claim that the Bible has been changed when the Quran says that no one can change the words of God? Why must we regard the Quran as truthful when it is full of plagiarism, anachronism, false information and hate? Why should we regard Islam as peaceful when it advocates the killing of Jews and infidels in cold blood? How can we trust its ethics when it allows Muslims to lie in its defence? Why must we not fight against it when it denies those in its domain the freedom of speech and the right to follow the dictates of their conscience? Why must God be labelled as unfaithful, inconsistent and a deceiver so that Muhammad can pass as divine messenger?

Be Like Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$13.99In this eight-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), pastor and author Randy Frazee explains that our spiritual transformation involves not only thinking and acting like Jesus but also allowing those thoughts and behaviors to shape our attitudes. As we do this, we experience a new way of looking at the world and discover an inner strength that allows us to remain steadfast, secure, and solid in the face of any circumstance. We also discover a new desire to serve others . . . which, in turn, draws them to the love of Christ. We know we are becoming like Jesus when we possess these attributes:
*I have a deep love for God and for the other people in my life.
*I have inner contentment in spite of my circumstances and understand my purpose in life.
*I have freedom from anxiety because I am at peace with God, others, and myself.
*I have experienced the power, through Christ, to control my thoughts and behaviors.
*I have patience in the unavoidable pressures of life and am slow to anger.
*I have the desire to be kind and good in my relationships with others.
*I have established a good name with God and others based on my loyalty to those relationships.
*I have become thoughtful, considerate, and calm in my dealings with others.Grounded in carefully selected scripture, Be Like Jesus is a churchwide discipleship program that will take you on a journey to become more like Jesus in your behaviors. This revised study, adapted from Part 3 of the Believe churchwide study, includes an updated video study and new content and questions adapted from the existing Believe Study Guide and Think, Act, Be Like Jesus by Randy Frazee.
