The book maintains that believers grow in Christlikeness not by human effort alone, but through surrender to Christ, the cleansing and empowering work of the Holy Spirit, and daily cooperation with God’s grace. Christian presents the Holy Spirit as the source of conviction, cleansing, comfort, guidance, power, and moral transformation, calling believers to move beyond self-centeredness, fear, division, and spiritual defeat. The work also proposes that genuine Christian maturity is seen in practical holiness: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Through devotional readings, Scripture references, prayers, affirmations, and discussion questions, the book encourages readers to cultivate a tender heart, renewed mind, surrendered will, active hands, and a Christ-centered life that bears the fruit of the Spirit in everyday relationships and service.https://clmbooks.org/more-devotional-books/gods-rescue-plan-for-lost-mankind/Wed, 01 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000https://clmbooks.org/more-devotional-books/gods-rescue-plan-for-lost-mankind/God’s Rescue Plan for Lost Mankind! is an illustrated presentation of Ron Christian’s understanding of God’s plan of salvation. The booklet maintains that every person faces deep spiritual questions and has a God-shaped emptiness that cannot be satisfied by substitutes such as pleasure, money, power, religion, morality, drugs, alcohol, sex, property, or entertainment. It asserts that sin is serious because it brings guilt, fear, shame, alienation from God, and eternal separation, while also showing that Christ died for everyone and that forgiveness is available through God’s mercy. Ron Christian presents salvation as God’s gracious rescue, received through awakening, repentance, faith, and surrender rather than through wealth, worldly pleasure, human reason, morality, self-improvement, or personal effort. The work emphasizes that faith rests in Christ alone, who forgives sins, gives new life, establishes fellowship with God, and writes the believer’s name in the Book of Life. It concludes by encouraging new believers to follow Christ daily through confession, Bible reading, prayer, sharing their faith, church fellowship, and faithful stewardship.
