The Truth About the Lordship of Christ: A Biblical and Theological Study of Submission to Jesus Christ and Making Him the Center of Your Life

"Becoming a Christian means being sick of your sin, longing for forgiveness and rescue from present evil and future hell, and affirming your commitment to the Lordship of Christ to the point where you are willing to forsake everything. I've said it before and I'll say it again: it isn't just holding up your hand or walking down an aisle and saying, 'I love Jesus.'" --John MacArthur

Best-selling author and pastor John MacArthur brings his deep knowledge of Scripture to this foundational subject. Step by step, he walks through the impact of God's sovereignty, our submission, the characteristics of holy living, and our assurance of salvation. MacArthur makes the case that the Christian life is full and rich--but not easy. It requires sacrifice, perseverance, and transformation in the ongoing process of becoming more like Christ. And it is absolutely worth the cost.

In The Truth About the Lordship of Christ, you are taken through the Bible and encounter:

• Deep biblical exposition about Jesus
• Theological instruction
• Practical application points and ideas
• Inspiration to grow in the knowledge of the Lordship of Christ

Christ Jesus is the very reason men and women can enjoy a relationship with God. Without him and the sacrifice he made, all would be hopeless and meaningless. In this book, you are challenged to make Christ the center of your life.
