January 21, 2009
There are far worse things to lose than one's possessions. Even Job's great faith wilted when he lost his health. First, your savings, then your job. Then your children. Finally, you learn you have terminal cancer. How would you handle the loss of everything? Would you curse God and die, as Job's wife urged? Stay tuned for answers to some really tough questions.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

A hurricane destroys a coastal town. Cancer strikes a promising athlete. Bad things happen to good people, and we ask "Why?" Life's race can take tragic turns. Your retirement savings are vaporized by corrupt bankers. Your stock holdings turn to dust. We can be detoured into great sorrow and disappointment. But we must learn, as Job did, that God is still there.

When all's going well, believers have little sense of their need for God. But when calamity strikes, they'll tell a different story. When the economy fractures and your job is lost, the reason can be hard to understand. When you lose your health, or your child, something inside screams out "Why?" But there is a supreme purpose for suffering, as a man named Job discovered long ago

A gymnast trains for years, performing flawlessly. But at the Olympics she falls from the balance beam, crying "Why?" "Why" is the word that haunts us when things go wrong: a child dies...a job is lost...a reputation is slandered. None of us escape those times when we question God's purposes. Millennia ago a man named Job showed us how to ask why.

The Bible says that Satan can appear as an angel of light. Indeed, many follow demons when they think they're following God. History will climax in a great struggle of good and evil. The outcome is foreordained: Jesus will return and vanquish Satan, his demons, and all who followed them into believing what the Bible calls The Lie, a lie promoted by media luminaries such as Oprah Winfrey.

The ultimate future for the believer is indeed glorious, but not before the darkest period in world history has taken place. The Bible says that in the latter times some will depart from the faith, adopting the doctrines of demons. Modern-day teachers masquerade as believers, teaching a perverted gospel that has roots in the mind of Satan himself. As these days approach, what are we to do?

What does the future hold? Most prognosticators can't look very far into the unknown. At best, they can only guess. The Bible gives some clues as to what will happen in what are called "the last days." We read of false Christs and false prophets who will lead many astray into believing what the Bible calls The Lie. What is this Lie? To learn more, stay with us.

When people are dazzled by miracles, they'll believe almost anything. Modern-day miracle workers take quick advantage of that. You can even buy a book called A Course in Miracles. And since only God can perform a miracle, the next leap of modern faith is to realize that we, ourselves, are gods. Satan's great end-time Lie is in full bloom, on radio, TV, and across the internet.

"Do you promise to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?" In a court of law, truth is important. The New Testament teaches that in the end times, truth will give way to a lie...not just any lie, but The Lie. What that lie is, and how it's found adherents among the powerful in our media, is our focus for the next five Running to Win programs.

Is God on America's side? We all thought so when the twin towers were destroyed. Off we went to fight the war on terror. Years later, the war is ongoing. The economy is teetering on the brink. Tough times lie ahead for America, and many feel we're experiencing God's righteous judgment. Today, Erwin Lutzer points the way forward for those who want to see America, again, be blessed by God.

The separation of Church and State is a premise not found in the Constitution or in the Declaration of Independence. It's referred to in the writings of Thomas Jefferson, and has been given a level of authority beyond that of the Bible itself. It is now a high wall, designed to keep God in a box while we as a nation do whatever we please. What is the inevitable outcome?
