An Urgent Call to a Serious Faith: A Prophetic Alarm for the Bride of Christ by Hunt DaveBerean CallFrom chapter one: "Death is not a pleasant topic, nor one that we will dwell upon, but it is an important starting point for serious reflection. Moses wrote, 'So teach us to number our days [that is, to realize how quickly they come to an end], that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom' (Psalm 90:12). The implication is clear that something lies beyond the grave for which we ought to make plans. The uncertainty of life and the inevitability of death are two of the most basic elements of human existence. Logically, then--even for those who think death ends it all--what may lie after death deserves at least some serious attention and planning before it may be forever too late." Previously published in paperback, this new hardcover edition, provides in-depth, scriptural answers to many of life's most important questions. |
