The Book of Job is possibly the oldest book ever written. Moses probably discovered it when he was living in the desert after he fled from Pharaoh in Egypt. Reading through the book, one can see that Job was a very righteous man. That is why Satan wanted to test him so severely. Bible teacher John R. Hargrove studies the life of Job and reveals secrets found in the book of Job to living a life of freedom in Christ. The record of Job reveals a man of integrity being severely tested by Satan. The test was to see if he would blame God for his trouble. Suffering only refined him. It did not make him bitter or turn against God. He said that even if God would slay him, yet he would trust in God. After going through abandonment by his wife, and verbal persecution by his friends, he discovered a holy God that loved him and wanted to bless him. He made a connection with God by the end of the book. John Hargrove wants help you find the secrets of Job's success.

The messages of Paul the Apostle have inspired the thoughts and imaginations of Christians of all ages. His authoritative approach to justification and righteousness serve to capture the interest of believers today. It is appropriate that his examples of holiness be presented afresh to our generation. History repeats itself. The indulgences and iniquities rampant in Paul’s day appear in churches today. False teachers overlook the sins of neglect. Liberal church leaders look for ways to enter into God’s favor without being in His presence. These messages, taken from Paul’s letters to the churches in Europe and Asia, show where Christians miss the mark in their spiritual growth. John Hargrove clearly lays out a foundation for incorporating spiritual truths into our lives, that we may grow into the image of Christ. John addresses the subjects of living a life of excellence, the resurrection of Christ, the judgment seat of Christ, sowing and reaping, growing in love, the election of god, and other subjects important to Christians in the world today.

As a young foreigner in Egypt, Joseph succeeded against overwhelming odds. Uprooted from his family in Canaan and sold as a slave in Egypt, he made the best of unpromising situations. Sold to Potiphar as a field-hand, he worked diligently and soon became overseer of Potiphar’s entire estate. Though innocent of any wrongdoing, Potiphar’s wife accused him of attempted rape, and Potiphar threw him into a prison house. Joseph acted wisely and discreetly in prison! When Joseph accurately interpreted Pharaoh’s dreams, Pharaoh appointed him ruler of all Egypt. Joseph stands as a splendid example of how God blesses and rewards righteous behavior. In scores of ways, Joseph’s life foreshadows the life of Jesus our Lord. After His crucifixion, many thought His influence ended. Yet Jesus rose from the dead and became author of eternal salvation to those who trust in Him.
