The Basic Christian: Doctrine 101 John J. Matey

Life is tough for everyone in this world, including Christians. Happiness is meant for everyone, but only Christians have the chance for real happiness or joy. Jesus said in John 10:10, I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. THAT is for the here and now in this life, on this earth! Doctrine is a great word. It simply means that which is taught. This writing is not a regular doctrine book; but rather, it is a doctrine book to help you to learn nine basic doctrines. These doctrines will help you understand and apply James 4:8 to your life. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. To enjoy God's blessings, we need to be close to Him. It probably tells us best in Ephesians 4:14 why we should know doctrine-That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive. There are a lot of wolves in sheep's clothing out there, waiting to devour your life. Do not let the world waste your life by its glitter. This book will show you how to have true happiness. Do not guess-find out for yourself from that which is taught. God's Word is the only source of wisdom.
