Blessed Assurance

Blessed Assurance Jesus Is Mine: The Eternal Hope of Christianity

“The most important thing for anyone is a clear solid assurance of salvation.”

Sometimes Christians struggle with assurance of their salvation. Perhaps you’re facing that struggle? Maybe you made a decision for Christ at a young age but are unsure if you really meant it? Or maybe you just don’t feel saved?

In this thoughtful and sensitive volume, Dr. Sledd shelters readers from the storms of doubt and fear about assurance and takes them on a compassionate journey into the very heart of what it means to be a saved child of God.

With wise pastoral insight, he explains reasons why Christians struggle with assurance and how they can overcome such challenges. Other topics include a study on justification, and what it means to see Jesus. Most importantly, he teaches the importance of seeking Jesus instead of assurance, for He alone is our assurance of salvation.

Blessed Assurance Jesus Is Mine is for all who wish to better understand and rest in their Savior’s infinite love for them and in the eternal hope of Christianity.

The Woman’s Head Covering

The Woman’s Head Covering: A Biblical Perspective

“I claim Christ Jesus as my covering. I look to him as my head and my righteousness. I trust him as my only covering of salvation.”

The Apostle Paul, in his first letter to the Church at Corinth, stated “But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head.”

What does this mean for modern-day Christians? Are women to have their heads covered at church and for worship? Or does the doctrine of the head covering no longer apply?

In this meticulously detailed exposition, Dr. Sledd takes readers on a thorough exploration of the doctrine of the head covering by analyzing scripture, first century Corinthian pagan worship, and the original Greek language.

His research gives a clear understanding for today and teaches the importance of celebrating the distinctions between male and female, and that all Christians are covered by the true covering – the righteousness of Jesus Christ.
