x, 221 pages ; 24 cm Popular perception of Jesus Christ is that of a tempered, genteel man who walked the earth, offering nuggets of wisdom to His followers. But what we sometimes fail to recognize is that although Jesus Christ offered a message of forgiveness, He also spoke challenging, demanding words about what being a follower of Christ requires. In contrast to the superficiality of much modern Christian teaching, Dr. John MacArthur serves up the unvarnished truth of what Christ taught and lived. In simple, compelling terms, he spells out what is required of those who would follow Him. Going beyond Jesus' life to include the crucifixion and resurrection, MacArthur shows readers that Jesus modeled the commitment and loving obedience He requires of us by making the ultimate sacrifice for humankind. Tastes great, less filling -- The hard truth -- Truth in a privy pot -- The best example -- Highway to heaven -- Empty words -- The rock of true faith -- Hallmarks of discipleship -- Can't get no satisfaction -- Traitors to the faith -- Why we're still here -- But some will believe. John MacArthur. Includes bibliographical references (pages 217-218).
