As Christians we are expected to be able to tell people why we believe what we believe (I Peter 3:15). Additionally, we are to do so by correctly explaining the Bible from the context in which it was written (II Timothy 2:15). This means that, no matter what denomination we may be a part of, we as claimed Christians during these last days need to lay aside our personal biases in order to further understand how the apostles perceived the Gospel. Not to imply that any church denomination is "wrong" for any particular view; maybe just incomplete for not fully comprehending the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ to the measure of the men who actually heard Him. Some may call this work just a "theory," but what this book offers is a prospect of what the apostles essentially gathered from the man Jesus, along with the principles He instituted apart from the typical view of today's modernized audience, that is. As we take a look into the development of the early church from a different angle we will examine certain words and actions taken by the apostles which commonly go unnoticed. In other words, we should be able to detect which New Testament doctrines have been swept under the rug by modern tradition. By the end of this endeavor you alone must determine whether this book should be classified as fact or fiction. You alone must decide whether or not these things apply to you. You alone must ... ... work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. -Philippians 2:12

And Jesus answered and said unto them, take heed that no man deceive you. (Matthew 24:4) Are Christians in today's churches being deceived? If we were, how would we know? We often accept doctrines of today's popular teachers at face value, without ever comparing their claims against the principles of Scripture. Taking for granted that everything we are hearing taught is truthful and sound doctrine, is to be very naïve. Jesus warns us in Matthew 7:15, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves." We live in an age of rapid change and much deception. If the teaching of the church is going to remain sound, the responsibility rests with us. "Wolves in Sheep's Clothing" is a study guide, a reference source, and a thought-provoking look at many of the teachings prevalent in today's Christian church. The author exposes many of today's false teachings, often with a bold stance. The false teachers propagate their lies with boldness, therefore at times it is necessary to stand against them with boldness. After studying this work, the reader will be empowered to sort through the misleading and deceptive doctrines of today, and avoid the common traps set by most false teachers. Hopefully by the end of the study the reader will have learned practical ways to determine for himself whether a teaching is truthful or in error. At the very least this study will provoke the reader to deep spiritual thought, and at the most, it will set people free from the bonds of false teaching. This study will benefit the fresh new believer and the seminary student, as well as the seasoned Bible teacher. This work is a must read for pastors, teachers, Bible study leaders, and anyone who thirsts after truth.

This collection of essays, sermons, and prayers urges the church today to be the sort of community that sustains a vigorous and continuing conversation within itself as to who has called it into being, to whom it is responsible, and what it is called to be and to do. Jones reminds the church that it is an alternative political community called into being by the Gospel. This collection explores what it means to be such an alternative community in tumultuous times, in times when it is tempting to look to the world for answers, and to confuse loyalty to the nation-state with loyalty to God. A theme throughout all the writings is that the church is the necessary context for becoming and being a Christian.

On repenting and believing the gospel it pleased God to justify each of us, and send the Spirit of His Son into our heart. Each was born again of the Spirit of God, into the family of God, and given the new nature of wanting to please God. Accordingly we press towards the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Realizing that one is not crowned unless he strives lawfully, the author sets out in this book to show the right way of doing that which is good and right according to the word of God. It is hoped that it will bring glory and honour to the Lord Our God and be a help and a blessing to the reader.
