Understanding God and his attributes is vital to developing a relationship with Him. This study, as the ninth book of the F.I.R.E. series, delves into this subject as an inquiry into the nature of God. Through fourteen chapters that each focus on one essential feature of God, readers will come to truly know God and, in turn, learn more about themselves and their worship.To do this, the four F.I.R.E. principles are applied, each with its own unique and essential purpose: familiarity, to study God from a personal and intimate perspective; interpretation, to determine the intended meaning of the Word of God with the help of the Holy Spirit; relationship, to examine the different aspects of the Word of God and how they fit together; and employment, to consider how we are called to respond to the Bible and employ it in our lives.Using the F.I.R.E. method, this study emphasizes understanding and application rather than observation and definition. Where the F.I.R.E. studies that center around the New Testament focus on one primary passage of Scripture each, Attributes of God on F.I.R.E. takes a more free-flowing perspective. Through this study's insightful approach, you will learn about the nature of God and how you can apply your newfound understanding to your life.

What Vital Choices Can We Personally Apply to Kingdom Living Principles Right Now in Our Daily Lives? Many people have a general concept about the kingdom of God but do not really know how to relate kingdom living to their lives in the 21st century. After thirty-eight years in ministry, Pastor Scott Kelso knows what works and what doesn't. In Let's See What Sticks, he presents the inside track on how you can personally identify and apply the transformational kingdom principles in your life to improve your Christian walk. He answers the common dilemma asked by most modern Christians: "Where do I fit in and how can I use my particular resources most effectively?" In Let's See What Sticks, Pastor Scott unpacks biblical principles and pastoral philosophies from the congested, unengaged dogma clogging our churches as "everyone's opinions." He truly believes that a kingdom-centered church will go a long way to bring our country back from the brink to its original, God-given status. He clearly defines: - Five Conditions for Successful Prayer: contrition, whole-heartedness, faith, righteousness, and importunity - Five C's of Marriage-Maturity Traits: commitment, character, courage to change, challenge, and consideration - Five Beauty Marks of the Church: passion, joy, transparency, grace, and love - Four T's of Shepherding: telling, tending, teaching, and training - Five Conditions of a Church in End-Times: evangelism, real vs. counterfeit faith, signs and wonders, encouragement, and loyalty to others. The chapters are well-documented and provide excellent guidelines for pastors engaging their congregations in forward-thinking study groups, as our churches attempt to penetrate our communities for Christ. Additionally, several God-inspired, prophetic conclusions are provided by Pastor Scott. Let's See What Sticks is an "in season" message for the body of Christ, giving the church opportunity to stand up and be "salt and light" in America once again.

The masses of the world are woefully ignorant of what they will soon confront, totally unprepared for what is soon coming. Humans will either cease to exist or be unrecognizable as a God-created species. What on Earth is going on? That which heretofore existed only in the imaginations of science fiction writers is now scientific fact. Glow-in-the-dark pigs? Ordinary pigs' DNA combined with glow-in-the-dark jelly fish DNA. A cow giving human milk? That cow is part human! Every living thing has DNA: humans, animals, plants, reptiles, sea creatures, insects, bacteria, viruses. DNA: the mechanism which stores all of the genetic information that makes each living creature unique. Scientists are splicing genes of one living creature into embryos of a different living creature, creating new life forms. Coming advancements in computer technology will soon allow computers to be interfaced with genetically-enhanced human bodies and brains, creating some kind of post-human species. Considering all of the UFO movies, documentaries, and propaganda available, are we being "desensitized" to the possibility that there could be a "UFO connection" in our future as well? Uncontrolled use of various technologies will bring out the dark side of human nature. All living things can, and will, have their DNA exchanged to form some new, unheard of creature or humanoid. All these things (and many more) are converging toward the destruction of life as we know it on Earth ... unless God intervenes.
