Books by Phillip A. Ross Now Available

The books of Phillip A. Ross are now accessible at your admired bookstore or www.pilgrim-platform.org. Ross has been autograph for fifteen years and has six books in print.

In 1983 Ross had an acquaintance that culminated in 1985 in what he calls regeneration. Ordained at First Congregational Church, Berkeley, California, afterwards earning a Master of Divinity amount at Pacific School of Religion, Ross was confronted by the absoluteness of the Bible as he accomplished the Bethel Series Bible Study Program at a abbey he was confined in St. Louis, Missouri.

“I had apprehend and advised the Bible for abounding years, but the Bethel Series opened it up to me in a new way. It became real, and it afflicted me,” Ross said.

Ross began admonition abnormally anytime since, as if the Bible was absolute history about absolute people. His admonition abashed humans in assorted advanced churches that he served. So, he preserved his admonition for after appraisal in a two-volume book, The Work at Zion—A Reckoning (1996, Vol 1, ISBN: 0-7880-9697-5, Vol 2, ISBN: 0-7880-9914-1), which provides a affectionate of almanac of his alteration apostolic perspective.

At the aforementioned time, the simple-minded, wishful-thinking of abounding of his new bourgeois accompany abashed him. It seemed to Ross that humans from both ends of the political spectrum had blurred the Bible, admitting in altered ways. So, he set out to see if the affectionate of biblical confounding that he empiric a allotment of assorted humans today was new. He apparent that it was not.

Ross angry to the book of James which provided a antidotal to the aboriginal abbey because already in the First Century the abbey had veered from the accuracy of the gospel. Ross brought that antidotal to ablaze in his book, Practically Christian—Applying James Today (2001, 2006, ISBN: 978-0-6151-7667-3).

Looking for the aboriginal antecedent of the botheration of biblical misunderstanding, Ross began belief the adventure of Jesus’ ministry. Sure enough, about anybody had blurred Jesus during his alluvial ministry, which he accurate in his book, Marking God’s Word—Understanding Jesus (2002, 2006, ISBN: 978-0-6151-7603-1).

He best up the continuing adventure of the actuality in the Book of Acts alone to acquisition that humans blurred Paul in the aforementioned means that they had blurred Jesus—until the allotment of the Holy Spirit. That adventure is begin in his book, Acts of Faith—Kingdom Advancement (2006, ISBN: 978-0-6151-7604-8).

Seeking some applied admonition about the appropriate way to anticipate about God and to abide as a Christian, Ross again angry to a abstraction of the Book of Proverbs. The adversity for abounding Christians is that Proverbs predates the admiral of Jesus. But it does not predate the absoluteness of Christ. Historic canon teaches that the Christian acceptance is founded on the abiding bendability of God. God does not change, nor does God's wisdom. So he looked for Christ in Proverbs and blue-blooded this book, The Wisdom of Jesus Christ in the Book of Proverbs (2006, ISBN: 978-0-6151-7215-6).
