With a poet's flair, Reginald Buckley clasps together the pastoral and prophetic hands of Christian preaching. These sermons must be read and heard because they call us to prophetic justice, as only the black church can. Grounded in Scripture, each message reminds us that God is both holy and just; therefore, as God's people, we must be also. You will be inspired and motivated to serve this present age after reading this necessary book.

Is There Not A Cause? There are many books written about the Bible, except, this book goes much further. It traces its history to the earliest days. It helps readers to clearly distinguish reliable manuscripts from unreliable ones, all of which were used as a basis for giving us the Bibles of today, and one which has benefitted the English-speaking world as no other. It therefore details how the Authorized or King James Version has influenced English cultures across the globe, including religious revivals, education, science, technology, literature, and everyday phrases still in use to this day. This especially includes addressing the many unsubstantiated claims leveled against it, and remember, it has impacted our world like no modern version, none of which have even come close. Diminishing or even rejecting its One central character, Christ Jesus, is to invite confusion, and/or disillusionment into one’s life concerning the Scriptures. For those who reject Him as the only way to access Heaven via salvation is to deny themselves ultimate entry into Heaven. After all, He truly is the GREATEST OF ALL CAUSES.

THE GREAT COMMISSION IS NOT OPTIONAL! Research shows that the unchurched, saved or unsaved are not staying away from church because they think it is boring or not relevant. Their lack of confidence isnt directed against God and the Bible; but it is with the church and its leaders. People dont want to experience church. They want to experience Gods presence. Today you cant get away with just talking about what the Bible says. The church today must see its mission as one of reflecting Gods holiness, revealing Gods glory, and witnessing to the reality of Jesus Christ. The early church did so by demonstrating sacrificial love, both toward those within the church and those on the outside. Likewise, the risen Christ came to transform us into a loving, compassionate people, but not through a political agenda. His strategy gives the individual a new birth, a new spirit, a new nature, a resurrection life, and the death of self and selfishness. There is a cause! Believers are here, Jesus said, to do greater things than these (see John 14:12). This is the calling of the church.

IS THERE NOT A CAUSE?The quest for significance and the drive for exceptionality have been the motivating forces behind a lot of human accomplishments. Every man strives to be exceptional for his time. However can a man truly make himself great? What really is greatness? How does one attain it? These and many more questions have boggled many a mind. This book is an attempt at answering these questions drawing from the life accounts of several bible characters. The stories are not unfamiliar but with a closer and more analytical approach it becomes obvious that the great men and women in the Bible were not too far from being people just like us. The science of their society and time may have been different but the people, attitudes and the pressures were exactly as it is today. This book will hopefully give every reader an understanding that true greatness is not achieved in a single day or by a single act and hopefully shape the reader's perspective on the meaning and purpose of being exceptional in one's time.ABOUT THE AUTHORUneke Nwevo is a Christian of Nigerian origin.
