Is it possible for a minister to engage in adultery, dishonesty. stealing, slander, heresy, or blasphemy, and still have an effective ministry that manifests the gifts of the Holy Spirit? Surprisingly, the answer is yes! Should he? Emphatically NO! Yet how can this be? How can a minister whose life is charac- terized by immorality continue to win souls and exercise a ministry that is obviously anointed by the Holy Spirit? In Lead Us Not Into Temptation, Don Basham explains that an effective ministry is no proof of a minister's moral character or spiritual integrity. Drawing insight from the Bible, he shows how good, honest men often get caught in Satan's snares and become false prophets and teachers. While we ought to oppose immorality, deception, and apostasy, Don Basham also warns us to avoid the far more destructive sins of slander and character assassination. Lest we become suspicious and distrustful of those in the ministry, he urges us to lovingly tolerate legitimate differences of opinion. A timely book for all Christians, Lead Us Not In to Temptation offers ministers practical guidelines for protection against Satan's attempts to corrupt them, and gives laymen biblical solutions for dealing with false ministers. An ordained minister and Bible teacher, Don Basham has been involved in the charismatic renewal since 1963. He serves as the Chief Editorial Consultant for New Wine magazine and is the author of more than a dozen books, including Deliver Us from Evil 241.641 Bas l-108007908208 Perpustakaan STTB Bandung Theological Seminary 241.641 Bas l E97023862 Non Fiction 241.641 Bas l 51FHuRBDswL._AC_UL320_.jpg 29785 2014-11-13 15:35:55 2024-11-22 12:37:10 machine generated
