Book Cover & Preview Text
The Christian Disciple Handbook is meant to help all Christians with the problems, questions, and issues that they face daily, weekly, and monthly in following Christ as His disciple, and have the Bible's answer ready at hand as how to properly deal with these problems and to be victorious over them. In my Christian life, one man, Martyn Lloyd-Jones, has helped me in my Christian walk as a disciple of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ far more than anybody else. This book is comprised of a series of detailed Bible lessons about Christian peoples' main problems in living the Christian life, and how to be victorious over them using the truths taught in the Scriptures. Many of these lessons are summarized versions of what I have learned from Lloyd-Jones combined with lessons that I have learned from my own personal experiences of over 30 years on the mission field. I have purposely written in simple English terms and in a format that is easy to read and study. It is written so that Christians can easily help teach and disciple other believers by following each Bible lesson that is pertinent to the difficulty that they are facing. It is my prayer that these Bible studies will teach, admonish, convict, correct and encourage every believer to become a better disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ, and bring glory to His name. A sinner saved by Christ's amazing grace, David Rivington.

About the Book
The Christian Disciple Handbook focuses on the most common and subtle ways that the devil, the world, and this wretched thing called “self” get Christian people depressed or unhappy in their Christian life as well as the Bible’s teaching on how to be a truly victorious disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ. There are no shortcuts to be a true disciple of Jesus Christ, only proper Bible teaching to overcome the lies and deception of the world, the devil, and our great enemy—self.
To take up one’s cross is simply to be willing to pay any price for Christ’s sake. Learn in these lessons the biblical keys to be a victorious Christian during your brief earthly pilgrimage so that, on the last day, you will hear Christ say to you, “Well done, good and faithful servant” (Matthew 25:21).
