"Your secret place of freedom"--Cover

Introducing under cover -- It's hard to kick against the goads -- Sin defined -- The secret power of lawlessness -- The consequences of disobedience I -- The consequences of disobedience II -- Bewitched -- Does God know who is in charge? -- Honor the king -- Double honor -- Obedience and submission -- What if authority tells me--? -- Unfair treatment -- Self-inflicted judgment -- Odds and ends -- Great faith -- Conclusion

This writer uses his personal mistakes to illustrate truths about repentance and forgiveness. As he focuses on the true authority of God, he is careful to explain by example the important difference between "submission" and "obedience." The same struggle with divine authority is also represented through the lives of John the Baptist, the Apostle Paul, and other biblical figures. An especially helpful book for Christians who want to develop a serious pursuit of God
