The Path to Christlikeness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780999507421)

When Christians come to a saving faith in Jesus their work has just begun. They are now disciples (students) of a Teacher--Jesus--who has a graduation goal in mind: Christlikeness.

We were created in the image of God, and since Christ is the image of God, we were originally created to be Christlike. The Path aims to restore this image that was marred by the Fall. It does so by taking us through various steps and stages that are outlined by the seven feasts of Moses. These feasts delineate times of suffering in the wilderness and times of anointing to serve God in power.

Thankfully, this road map was given to us, because the Path can be quite perplexing. Elijah and Jonah prayed for their death, and Jeremiah and Job cursed the day of their birth. They and many other saints have felt lost while making their greatest spiritual progress on the Path. Perhaps, during this pandemic, you have shared their feelings of confusion and even despair.
The Path is difficult to navigate because it is completely contrary to human nature. And since our nature leads us away from God the Path takes us through the painful process of destroying our old nature and replacing it with a new nature that is Christlike.

If you seek to strengthen your faith during this time of turbulence, then understanding God's ways, which are unlike ours, will help you achieve this important end.
