How to Survive in a World of Unbelievers
Overview
Jesus answered this troubling question on the eve of His death with some of the most poignant, powerful teaching in His entire ministry. During those hours, He taught His apostles and, consequently, all believers throughout history, How to Survive In a World of Unbelievers.
Respected pastor, teacher, and author John MacArthur, plumbs the depths of Jesus’ final words of encouragement to us, based on John 13-16. By studying this valuable book, you will find answers to these and other difficult questions:
How can you keep your life focused on glorifying Christ in a society that proclaims self, pride, and personal achievement as marks of success?
How do you retain your Christian ethics when you boss asks you to lie or cheat?
How can you keep your family anchored to Christ in a society that is drifting far away from His teaching on family issues, such as divorce, homosexuality and abortion?
How do you help your children stay morally pure when they want to “fit in” with school friends who prefer objectionable activites?
How can you remain pure-hearted and spiritually sound in a church seemingly full of hypocrites?
Wait! You could get a better deal by purchasing this resource in the MacArthur LifeWorks Library 2.0.

“The Master gave every genuine follower the possession of divine truth, the Word of God.” (Page ix)
“One of the greatest ways we can glorify God is to declare the gospel. The message of the gospel radiates the glory of God like nothing else in all the universe. In a sense, therefore, witnessing is one of the highest and purest forms of worship.” (Pages 34–35)
“Only absolute humility can generate absolute love. It is the nature of love to be selfless, giving.” (Page 5)
“Real fruit is, first of all, Christlike character.” (Page 128)
“He is saying, ‘Peter, unless you allow Me to wash you in a spiritual way, you are not clean and you have no part with Me.’ All cleansing in the spiritual realm comes from Christ, and the only way anyone can be clean is if he is washed by regeneration through Jesus Christ (Titus 3:5). No one has a relationship with Jesus Christ unless Christ has cleansed his sins. And no one can enter into the presence of the Lord unless he first submits to that cleansing.” (Page 9)
