ALTADENA, Calif., Nov. 1, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Man's greatest achievements have been reached only through profound sacrifice, writes E. Macedo in his new book, Change Your Life Through Your Sacrifice (now available through AuthorHouse). He offers commentary on how paying a holy price can improve people's lives and strengthen their relationship with God.
Macedo emphasizes the impact that religious offerings, tithes and other sacrifices have on one's achievements. He offers scholarly discussion on sacrificing as a way to acknowledge the holiness and power of God in human life.
"In this book you will learn that to be victorious, demand sacrifice," he writes. "Here you'll find words such as persecutions, sacrifices, commitment, responsibility, battles and hard work that is part of Christian life."
Many have experienced failure because they have not yet realized the importance of commitment, he says. By paying the price of outcomes with sacrificing, people not only obtain the things they want, but also strengthen themselves and their love of God. Blessings, joy and peace are effects of religious dedication, but the faithful will experience more results if they sacrifice, Macedo writes.
"One needs boldness, courage, faith and trust in the work of the Holy Spirit to talk about all the truths of faith."
Change Your Life Through Your Sacrifice is a detailed book that offers powerful Bible passage in order to highlight the need for forfeiture.
Macedo was born in 1945 in Rio das Flores, Brazil, near Rio de Janeiro. His first encounter with God occurred in 1963. He draws his inspiration from his communion with God and his solid marriage.
