About the Book
What exactly did Jesus Christ save us from other than hell fire? That was the question a somewhat frustrated friend asked while going through a difficult period in his life. Many Christians have asked similar questions or wondered why the Christian life in reality is so different from what is usually professed. This book is a true seeker's manual on the Gift of Salvation. It is for those who are not satisfied with only doctrines and creeds handed down by parents or pastors. It is for those willing to build on what they've learnt, dig deeper and find out the fullness of what God in His mercy gave to mankind in Jesus Christ. It not a book to rush or breeze through, like the Berean Christians, readers are encouraged to carefully study the Scripture references and dig out the truth for themselves. The promise of God is: "You will seek Me and find Me, when you seek Me with all your heart.
About the Author
Irpeel Ebenezer is a retired Family Physician and married with children. She was drawn into a deeper study of the Gift of Salvation through Jesus Christ after observing her own personal failures as a Christian and the failures of the Church in Contemporary times. Delving into the history of the Church, she discovered that over the centuries, the Gospel has been philosophized, secularized and even commercialized while the power of the Holy Spirit has been neglected. The result is that the majority of contemporary Christians lack understanding of the Christian’s true identity in Christ. It is hoped that what is shared in this book will help readers to a better understanding of what the death and the resurrection of Jesus Christ accomplished for believers and therefore a closer walk with Him.
