Can a Christian really be perfect this side of heaven? Of course not, but Jesus Himself nevertheless commands His people, "You are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect." These words offer quite a contrast to the cries of our secular society, which has lost its moral compass and any sense of absolute truth. This ungodly age dupes us into thinking that being a tad better than the world somehow makes us acceptable to God. As Christians, however, we know that God, not the world, sets the standards for us. In The Perfect Christian, gifted teacher and nationally acclaimed speaker Dr. Tony Evans calls believers back to Gods demand for perfection. With powerful biblical teaching , heart-grabbing insights, and unforgettable anecdotes, he challenges you to "march in a new direction in keeping wit the perfect demands of our loving heavenly Father." THe end of the chapter "Test Your Perfection IQ" questions invite you to consider how close to perfection you are now and how you can grow from there.
Dr. Evans offers solid Bible teaching based on the book of James. Encouraging his reader to pursue perfection, he teaches life changing lessons on such key topics as:
- How to resist temptation
- How to balance faith and works
- How to control your tongue
- How to know the power of prayer
The pursuit of perfection wont produce absolute perfection in your life, but Dr. Evans assures you it will mean a new level of spiritual life, power, and victory for you to enjoy. So accept the challenge, make perfection your goal, and grow tremendously in your faith!
