For you were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light: (Ephesians 5:8) You may know of it as the Golden Menorah, as the Golden Lampstand, or as (it is referred to in the KJV Bible) the Golden Candlestick. But by whatever name you choose to call it, this item of furniture serves as a beautiful representation of how the light of God is made manifest through His various earthly vessels – namely the written Word of God, Jesus Christ (the Word made flesh) and His Body (the Church). But how is this light accomplished? And what all is involved? The ...

"Red beef and strong beer" was how C. S. Lewis described his education under one of his early tutors. It was, in other words, a substantial education that engaged deeply with the intellectual tradition and challenged him to grow. Gary Selby sees Lewis' expression as an indication of the kind of transformation that is both possible and necessary for the Christian faith, and he contends that spiritual formation comes about not by retreating from the physical world, but through deeper engagement with it.

The Covenant: Simple yet Profound is intended for all Christians. Those who have only a rudimentary understanding of the gospel, as one would expect, will find some portions more difficult than others. And, conversely, those with a mature knowledge, will perhaps find some portions simplistic. Regardless, this book about covenant theology has especially been written with the layman in mind. Though dealing with the Covenant of Redemption, the Covenant of Works, and the Covenant of Grace, this book is really about the gospel by another name.

Sumario de Doctrina Cristiana Ortodoxa es un tratado sistemático de las doctrinas cristianas a la luz de la ortodoxia en el escrutinio de la historia, matizado a la luz del entendimiento de la ortodoxia cristiana hasta el sol de hoy, bajo la lupa hermenéutica de la tradición Bautista. A esto, este libro comprende tanto un esbozo histórico breve del progreso del dogma desde los primeros esfuerzos cofesionarios iniciados con el “Credo Apostólico”, una breve exposición de los “Principios” que definen la fe de los Bautistas, que son mayormente de orden eclesiológico, como una ...

This bookt frames Edwards, Hopkins, and Fuller as one “Edwardsian ecosystem” expressed in different church habitats—Congregational New England (Hopkins) and Particular Baptist England (Fuller)—and it does so explicitly through Old School Baptist eyes, i.e., with the controlling suspicion that this whole line (however brilliant) proved practically corrosive to “sound Baptist doctrine.” The thesis is clean: Edwards supplies the conceptual machinery, Hopkins systematizes and weaponizes it into an activist ethical program, and Fuller translates Edwards into an anti–Hyper-Calvinist...

FROM FALL UNTO FOREVER is a series of four essays spanning the topics of revelation, depravity, sanctification, and eschatology. Many Christians have lost a love for systematic theology, and this loss of interest corresponds to the rise of error and disunity in the modern church. If we want unity, we will need to do the hard but joyful work of systematics. Here's a start...

One of the most important things you can do as a Christian is to know the attributes of God, since all the essential doctrines of the Faith flow from these important characteristics.We are magnifying who and what God is! As the church grapples with new and innovating ways to understand God’s nature, a flawed concept of God threatens to reduce not only the awe and majesty of the Almighty, but also the clear and crucial ontological (being) distinction between the Creator and creation, the eternal and temporal, and the infinite and finite.Open Theism (aka Free Will Theism, Neotheism, or ...

The doctrine of Justification by Faith is what separated the Protestants from the Roman Catholics five centuries ago. However, today many Protestants have no clear idea of the doctrine or the history of how it was recovered by Martin Luther. This book presents both of these in accessible terms. Please remember that this book is not meant for everyone! It is meant for Protestants alone. Roman Cathoics might find many portions less than pleasing.

Why God’s Sovereignty 1. It Shapes Our View of God God’s sovereignty means He rules over all things with wisdom, power, and love. Without this truth, we might see God as small, limited, or distant. But when we grasp His sovereignty, we recognize Him as the Almighty who cannot be overruled. It gives us reverence, awe, and worship, because we know He is the supreme King. 2. It Brings Comfort in Suffering Life is filled with trials, grief, and unexpected losses. If everything were left to chance, we would live in fear and despair. But knowing God is sovereign means that even the hardest ...

In his prayer, he gave three gifts to accomplish the oneness of his people: eternal life, truth and his glory. When previously divided, even hostile people can become one in this present conflicting and confusing age.

Review "It will make you think. You better get your Bible out and get ready to do some reading." - Frederick L Perrin "I thoroughly enjoyed this book, a no nonsense approach and well thought out with scripture applied in the way it's meant to be." - Moondog (Amazon Reviewer) Description Wars and rumors of wars? The great tribulation? The Abomination of Desolation? When you hear those phrases, what do you think about? Is it the rapture, a 7-year tribulation, the antichrist, or the end of the world? Most of the modern treatments of the end times are based on newspaper headlines, current ...

Con frecuencia escucho la pregunta ¿cuál es la diferencia entre católicos y evangélicos? A través de este libro quisiera ayudarle a lograr dos objetivos principales: En primer lugar, entender que el tema en cuestión es si profesamos o no la fe cristiana, no si somos católicos o evangélicos.

Es decir, la Biblia, como Palabra de Dios, es la norma divinamente revelada por la cual conocemos a Dios y Sus enseñanzas. Aparte de ...
