How can these authors say that seeking to follow the purpose and will of God is not in the New Testament? Astonishingly, they appear to have no theology of Christ in this matter, and this shows how far they have fallen to a 'new evangelical' view of Scripture. 'Not my will, but thine, be done' was the Lord's cry to the Father as he represented his people, and lived a perfect life on our behalf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not hard, surely, to distinguish between routine matters, and matters directly relating to the journey of life. Daily food obviously does not relate to the direction of life, nor to one's spiritual calling and fruitfulness. Nor does the make of car one buys relate to the course of life, though the Lord will help the search and selection in answer to prayer. Like all expensive commodities, the buying of a car is subject to the rules of Scripture. Covetousness and unnecessary luxury and expense are to be avoided, but the decision is not central to the journey of life. On the other hand, one's marriage-partner affects the entire journey of life. So does one's career. Where a person chooses to live greatly affects the journey of life, and so does the choice of a church fellowship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book argues for the old evangelical view that God leads his people in the major issues of life.

Perhaps you are, or have been, an earnest seeker, but you have a problem which prevents you from going to the Saviour in ­repentance, and trusting in Him for salvation. Or perhaps you have prayed for forgiveness and new life but there has been no answer to that prayer, and now you have left off trying.

The answer to the first problem will include guidelines for repentance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e1. ‘I cannot repent, because I am not sufficiently ashamed of my sins.

As long as genuine regret, self-condemnation and hatred of sin are firmly in your head, you can sincerely repent. It is true that some seekers do feel an extremely deep sense of emotional sorrow when they first repent, but not all. Many who are genuinely repentant have a clear mental awareness of their sinfulness, but for them deeper feelings will come later. If you have been made aware of your lost and sinful condition, and you know you deserve condemnation, then turn to the Lord and repent. The Word of God tells us, ‘They shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn’ \u003ci\u003e(Zechariah 12.10).\u003c\/i\u003e In other words, as the seeker sincerely ­repents and trusts the Saviour, and as he realises how much the Lord suffered on Calvary to bear the agonising punishment of his sin (ie: as he looks upon the Lord Whom he has pierced), then often his feelings come more to life and his heart melts in shame and gratitude to Christ for what He has done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 ‘I cannot repent, because I am not sufficiently ashamed of my sins.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2 ‘I wish I could repent, but sometimes my heart is too hard.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 ‘I cannot turn to Christ yet, because I am not good enough.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 ‘I have repeatedly prayed for salvation, but so far nothing seems to have happened.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5 ‘I want to be a Christian, but I think the Christian life is too hard and I will have to give up too much.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e6 ‘I cannot repent and be converted because I have gone too far into sin.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e7 ‘I cannot find Christ because of my doubts, and because I cannot understand everything in the Bible.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e8 ‘I cannot trust the Gospel and turn to Christ, because the biblical way of salvation seems too easy.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9 ‘I cannot be converted because I think I have left it too late.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10 ‘I cannot be converted because I do not think that my prayers will be answered by God.’\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Masters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":4650257055773,"sku":"UKSTE05","price":0.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2463\/6877\/files\/A_Seekers_Problems_cover.jpg?v=1783932241"},{"product_id":"seven-certain-signs-of-true-conversion-9781899046058","title":"Seven Certain Signs of True Conversion","description":"\u003cp\u003eAre there recognisable signs that true conversion has occurred?
