Harry Potter and the Bible: Harmless
Fantasy or Dangerous Fascination?

Pennsylvania: Horizon Books
133 ABA, 2001
275 pages
Harry Potter and his magical adventures as a wizard-in-training continue to mesmerize millions
worldwide. But several questions must be asked: does Harry offer any positive moral lessons for today’s
children? Is Harry’s magick* truly fictional or is it based on actual occultism? How do the Harry Potter
tales compare to other fantasy books? In this user-friendly and helpful volume, Abanes answers these
questions, provides a hard look at society’s not-so-subtle drift toward paganism and examines the reasons
why God says “no” to occultism. This book will help you make wise choices for your family.

132 pages
The advances of medical technology bring with them a host of new and sometimes perplexing ethical
issues. More than ever before, we need wisdom to deal with the difficult questions related to health care –
questions about how to treat the terminally ill; the ethics of medical research; weighing the possible
benefits of a treatment in view of known risks; defining personhood or death; deciding what is in the best
interest of a patient not competent to decide for himself; and protecting prenatal life. Frame analyses a
wide range of biblical principles as they apply to the intricate problems and personal considerations with
which patients, their families, and health practitioners must wrestle. In so doing he sheds much needed
light on how to obey God in the midst of complex medical-ethical decisions. In addition, a lengthy
appendix on the abortion issue presents what may well be the most carefully argued case from Scripture
in defense of the unborn.

This handbook will help us grow in the liberating knowledge of Christ, as it opens up the great themes of
God’s Word and shows how they fit together. Each chapter looks at one facet of biblical truth and
encourages further study with Scripture references to look up, questions for discussion and books for
additional reading. The main sections all close with practical reflection on how, the Bible’s teaching
challenges us and moves us to adore the living God. “It is a privilege to commend so sensible, clear and
fruitful an overview of basic Christian belief.”- J.I. Packer

Introduction to Biblical Christian
Education
0-8024-4128-9
Chicago: Moody
207 GRA, 1981
413 pages
This volume on contemporary ministry represents two simple but deeply pervasive convictions. One is
that the fullest development of God’s people, both as individual believers and as productive members of
the Christian fellowship, demands a viable Christian education ministry. The correlated conviction is that
such ministry must find its essential heart and direction in the Word of God. This, then, is a volume of
practical guidance in contemporary Christian education, clearly viewed in biblical perspective. It is
concerned with today’s believer, his family, and his church – and the biblical faith he seeks to build and
share.

The new cults are coming, and we had better be prepared for them! The author and his research

deadly teaching; how the new cults are sweeping in millions of people; how the Bible is being twisted to
deceive the uninformed; and how you can understand the truth about the Bible.

Grand Rapids: Baker

174 pages
First published in 1972, this book has established itself as one of the most illuminating books defending
biblical creationism. It now appears in a revised and expanded edition. The case for biblical creationism is
presented comprehensively, yet explained so clearly that the layperson can easily understand. No verified
and substantiated findings of science are rejected, but the author does discard every theory that
contradicts the teachings of Scripture.

“Religion, the fear of God, must therefore be the element which inspires and animates all theological
investigation. That must be the pulse-beat of the sciences. A theologian is a person who makes bold to
speak about God because he speaks out of God and through God. To profess theology is to do holy
work. It is a priestly ministration in the house of the Lord. It is itself a service of worship, a consecration
of mind and heart to the honour of His name.”

Although the Southern Presbyterian Church of the last century produced many volumes of enduring
spiritual importance, it was only this work which came “nearest to a complete text of Systematic
Theology.” For its preparation Robert L. Dabney, “the best teacher of theology in the United States, if
not in the world” (A.A.Hodge), was certainly suited. While his exposition and vindication of credal
Christianity is akin to that of other reformed authors he has a literary force and an ability to stimulate
thought which is distinctive. In his concern to see the truth understood and lived, in his wrestling with
hard points and his mastery of detail, Dabney is second-to-none.

As Christians we aim to discover what God wants us to do. The danger is that we spend so long looking
that we necer get on with actually doing it. Lumb cuts through some of the fog, helps us to see how god

The author believes that the transforming experience the Apostle Paul wrote about in Romans 12:2 is
“the result of the right kind of personal and corporate worship.” He says, “We have tried everything else.
Now it is time that we return to God’s way and tried worship.” The normal activities of the church are
good “only if they are a by-product of spiritual worship.” “It is important that we expand our vision of
God, deepen our experience of worship, and broaden our love for God’s people and our ministry to
those who need Christ.”

Designed to help the reader better visualize the continuity and significance of Bible events, these pages
provide thrilling and convincing testimony that God ever cultivates a perfect company – in harmony with
His perfect will – to be with Him and like Him throughout a perfect eternity. With continuing focus on
the basic questions of iniquity and godliness, Dr Eade here interprets Scriptural incident through the
natural grouping of Bible books according to the Dispensations of Innocence, Conscience, Human
Government, Promise, the law, Grace, and the Kingdom. Effectively introducing each unit is a
fascinating chart pictorially summarizing the material treated.

The Revelation of Law in Scripture
0-86201-222-8
New Jersey: P & R
220 FAI, 1996
484 pages
The relationship between law and grace in Scripture has confounded theologians throughout history. Few
books have cast as much light on that difficult subject as Fairburn’s nineteenth-century classic, which is
marked by solid, sensible, and reliable Reformed scholarship.
Lecture 1: Introductory – prevailing views in respect to the ascendency of law (1) in the natural; (2) in the
moral and religious sphere; and the relation in which they stand to the revelations of scripture on the
subject;
Lecture 2: The relation of man at creation to moral law – how far or in what respects the law in its
principles was made known to him – the grand test of his rectitude, and his failure under it
Lecture 3: The revelation of law, strictly so called, viewed in respect to the time and occasion of its
promulgation
Lecture 4: The law in its form and substance – its more essential characteristics – and the relation of one
part of its contents to another
Lecture 5: The position and calling of Israel as placed under the covenant of law, what precisely involved
in it- false views on the subject exposed – the moral results of the economy, according as the law was
legitimately used or the reverse
Lecture 6: The economical aspect of the law- the defects adhering to it as such – the relation of the
psalms and prophets to it – mistaken views of this relation – the great problem with which the Old
Testament closed, and the views of different parties respecting its solution
Lecture 7: The relation of the law to the mission and work of Christ- the symbolical and ritual finding in
Him its termination, and the moral its formal appropriation and perfect fulfillment
Lecture 8: The relation of the law to the constitution, the privileges, and the calling of the Christian
church
Lecture 9: The re-introduction of law into the church of the New Testament, in the sense in which Law
was abolished by Christ and His apostles
Supplementary dissertations
1. The double form of the Decalogue, and the questions to which it has given rise
2. The historical element in God’s revelations of truth and duty, considered with an especial respect
to their claim on men’s responsibility and obligations
3. Whether a spirit of revenge is countenanced in the writings of the Old Testament.

Unlike many Bible surveys, this one has been designed to put the individual books of the Bible into a
historical framework. This approach is sure to increase the reader’s understanding of each biblical book
and its significance. As its subtitle claims, this book is a veritable “treasury of Bible information.” It
belongs on the bookshelf with such basic reference works as a study Bible, a concordance, and a Bible
dictionary. After brief chapters on how to study and interpret the Bible, it offers an overview of Bible
history (which is summarized in seven chronological charts), followed by an introduction to the 66 books
of Scripture. The latter are divided into 21 groups, and these groups are treated in chronological, not
canonical, order. Illustrating the text are 32 photographs and 18 lists, charts, diagrams and maps. This
comprehensive volume also contains study questions for each chapter, section by section, and it is fully
indexed.

Great Chapters of the Bible
0-8007-1040-1
220 MOR, 1935
379 pages
The “prince of expositors” makes 49 chosen chapters come alive with his eloquent interpretations. He
introduces Genesis 1 as the account of sin and sorrow in its beginnings of human history. He explicates
the foundations of Exodus 12 as the roots for Hebrew people and Exodus 20 as the “law chapter.” Psalm
22 he identifies as the single most poignant song of a sufferer, answered by the sufficiency of God as
expressed in Psalm23. Included are the scientific and artistic record of Christ in Luke 2 and the passion of
Christ’s death and ascension in Luke 24. New insights are given to the oft-read story of Nicodemus, for
the doctrine of sin and grace of Romans 5, and for the great “love chapter,” 1 Corinthians 13. Morgan
peers between the lines of Scripture to bring out the wonder of Christ. His glory and His grace in
Colossians 1; the astounding record of witnesses to God’s truth in Hebrews 11; and the ultimate unveiling
of Christ in Revelation 1.

This Bible Reference Companion combines the best features of biblical dictionaries, concordances,
encyclopedias and cross-reference books into one easy-to-use resource. Here, at your fingertips, is a list of
every important word that appears in the Bible – and an accompanying list of references citing its
location. The Concordance feature lists all of the most widely known and familiar references of wrods in
the KJV, except 132 entry words not likely to be used in searching for a particular Scripture passage
because they are so common (such as a, an, the). Further information is available through the complete
topical index, which gathers information in a different manner from the concordance. This feature
enables you to trace occurrences of an idea throughout Scripture whether or entry word appears in the
reference. For example, while the word “covenant” appears several times throughout the Bible, the
concept of covenant is expressed in many passages without the actual word. That’s why the listing for
covenant contains some 44 references to this theme, even though the word itself may not appear in every
instance. Using this feature, you can perform in-depth word and doctrinal studies by using the complete
list of the appropriate references provided for you. The dictionary feature lists important meanings of the
entries, along with their root meaning, where helpful. This innovative Bible reference companion
provides critical biblical insights in a convenient, easy-to-use format. Because it is reliable, well-crafted
and comprehensive, it may be the Bible reference tool you’ll keep closest to your Bible.

the home, the church, and the wider society? Noted pastor, author, and Biblical scholar John Piper looks

words in the original languages. English equivalents are listed alphabetically throughout the text, along
with either Greek or Hebrew words from which they are translated. Various nuances of meaning, plus
Scripture passages illustrating particular usages, are also included. It is organized in such a way that it
becomes at once a dictionary, a commentary and a concordance. Greek and Hebrew indexes have
Strong’s numbering system and references by page numbers to the Brown, Driver, and Briggs’ (Hebrew)
and Bauer, Arndt, and Gingrich (Greek) lexicons; shades of meaning are described in depth; there are
comments on Bible passages and cross references that reveal which Hebrew and Greek words are
represented by one English word – and which English words are used to translate Hebrew and Greek
words. There are also historical, technical and etymological notes as well as old and new meanings of
words.

One Volume To Answer Questions
Challenging Christians in the 21st Century
0-7852-4219-8
220.6 JOS, 1999
760 pages
Bestselling author and Christian apologist Josh McDowell hopes The New Evidence That Demands a
Verdict will further document historical evidence of the Christian faith. As such, it is a straightforward
compilation of notes prepared for his lecture series, “Christianity: Hoax or History?” The entire book
(over 750 pages) is laid out in outline form, which makes it easier for researchers, scholars, and students
to access. As a result, this is not reflective fireside reading. Rather, it is a tool for locating supporting
“evidence” whenever the need arises. Part I addresses the trustworthiness of the Bible; Part II offers
historical evidence and supporting attestations for Jesus’ claim to God; Part III addresses “radical
Christian criticism” of the Bible; Part IV is devoted to quelling the voice of numerous skeptics, including
“a defense for the existence of miracles” and “answers to divergent worldview.”

Since its publication in 1950, this book has been a standard introduction to hermeneutics in evangelical
colleges and seminaries. After surveying the history of biblical interpretation, the author devotes 70 pages
to explicating “the protestant system of hermeneutics.” He then discusses the doctrinal use of the Bible
and its devotional and practical use. Following a chapter on the hermeneutical dimension of the problem
of biblical inerrancy and secular science, he concludes with chapters on the interpretation of types,
prophecy and parables.

Nave’s Topical Bible: A Comprehensive
digest of over 20,000 topics and sub-topics

Scripture references

Nave's Topical Bible, the best known of all topical bibles, has been a valuable Bible-study reference and a
best-seller for more than 75 years. It is a comprehensive digest of over 20,000 topics and subtopics with
more than 100,000 associated Scripture references. The most significant references for each topic actually
include the full text of the verse cited-saving the need to separately look up each verse.
Because Nave's groups verses by "idea" (or "topic"), it offers a better overview of relevant Scriptures than
a concordance, which only lists or indexes verses according to specific words. This edition also includes
the helpful Scripture index (left out of some other editions), which makes it possible for the reader
studying a particular biblical text to locate every topic and grouping of Scripture in Nave's whenever a
particular verse is included. That way, it is possible for the reader to study either all the verses related to a
particular topic or all the topics related to a particular verse-it works both ways.
For the pastor or teacher interested in saving hours of time but not willing to give their second best, and
for anyone wanting to be challenged by what God has to say about a given subject, Nave's Topical Bible is
the passport that will allow immediate and successful entry to the many points of interest.

The Expositor’s Bible Commentary (12
volumes)
0-310-36430-2
220.7 GAE, NIV, 1979
168 pages
The Gold Medallion Award-winning Expositor’s Bible Commentary is a major contribution to the study and
understanding of the Scriptures. Providing pastors and Bible students with a comprehensive and scholarly
tool for the exposition of the Scriptures and the teaching and proclamation of their message, this 12volume reference work has become a staple of seminary and college libraries and pastors’ studies
worldwide. The Expositor’s Bible Commentary uses the New International Version for its English text, but
also refers freely to other translations and to the original languages. Each book of the Bible has, in
addition to its exposition, an introduction, outline, and bibliography. Notes on textual questions and
special problems are correlated with the expository units; transliteration and translation of Semitic and
Greek words make the more technical notes accessible to readers unacquainted with the biblical
languages. In matters where marked differences of opinion exist, commentators, while stating their own
convictions, deal fairly and irenically with opposing views.
Key Features includes
 Transliterations make the Expositor’s Bible Commentary accessible for English-only study
 Introduction to authorship and historical issues
 Outlines of each book of the Bible
 Exposition and notes on the entire Bible
 Detailed bibliography
 Advanced search features of Logos Bible Software make the Expositor’s Bible Commentary more
accessible than ever
 All Scripture references linked to the Bibles in your library
 Results from the Expositor’s Bible Commentary appear in Passage Guides and other reports in Logos

Exposition of the Scriptures by Dallas
Seminary Faculty (New Testament edition)
(2 copies)
0-88207-812-7
220.7 ROS, 1983/1988
991 pages
This is an excellent commentary set written by professors from Dallas Theological Seminary. Based on
the NIV text, the commentary is brief and to the point. This commentary is especially good if you want to
cut to the chase and see what a particular passage or verse means without wading through a lot of
irrelevant background or scholarly information. The explanations are very clear and easy to understand.
Being an expositional commentary, it is ideally suited for laypeople who have limited technical knowledge
of Hebrew and Greek. However, pastors and seminary students will find this helpful as well, since it is so
clearly written. The organization of the commentary offers a very helpful introduction and outline of the
book. It also provides verse by verse commentary. Some of the charts that went along with the particular
book offer clear help. For example, in the book of Revelation, it offers a helpful chart "7 Beatitudes in
Revelation." These helpful charts are included throughout both the O.T. and N.T. volumes.
The commentators strongly hold to a conservative, evangelical position and hold to the complete
inerrancy of Scripture. The prophetic books (esp. Daniel and Revelation) are interpreted according to the
premillennial dispensationalist viewpoint; the commentators hold to the pretribulational Rapture and to
the futurist, literal understanding of the Book of Revelation. If you hold to a different position (such as
amillennial or postmillennial view) you would most likely not agree with the commentary, esp. that of
Daniel and Revelation. The authors also believe that the miraculous gifts have ceased with the completion
of the canon and the death of the apostles.

Standing against the irreconcilable position between feminism and Bible teachings, the author reaffirms
the inerrancy of Scripture. 3 principles, established in Genesis, undergirded by Old Testament legislation,
assumed by Jesus and explained by Paul are developed: Men and women are equally in God’s image; the
women is functionally subordinate to the man in marriage and the church; the husband and wife are one
flesh and believers are one body in Christ.

In this groundbreaking work, a recognized authority on Semitic Arabs and Muslim evangelization, strips
away Western stereotypes and misconceptions of the Arab people and reveals God’s promises and
purposes for them. He probes the Scriptures and other ancient historical records for answers to questions
like: Why are Western Christians so strongly anti-Arab? Is there a scriptural basis for this antagonism?
What, according to the Scriptures, is God’s plan for the Arab people? How does the spread of Islam fit
into the picture? What are the reasons behind Arab terrorist activities? How can Christians be more
effective in evangelizing Arabs and Muslims?

The central conviction behind this book is that God has encounters with men. This exciting truth is
vividly portrayed in the experiences of Jacob’s life. Douglas MacMillan takes us through the most
important moments of Jacob’s story and reveals the saving power of God in the life of a man. Although
previously a devious and crafty man, God’s dealings with him meant that Jacob could never be the same
again. God changes a man when He saves him. And it is a prayerful encounter. If we feel that there is
something missing in our prayer lives, that we are failing to get to grips with God, the lessons of Jacob’s
wrestling will be timely indeed.

Scripture Prophecy. It is evident that the conscientious labour and thought of years are embodied in the volume. While the
author shows that he has studied with care the literature of his subject, he has at the same time wrought out an independent
scheme of interpretation marked by great comprehensiveness and self-consistency.” – United Presbyterian Magazine

A Historical Atlas of the Jewish People

New York: Schocken
220.9 BAR, 1992
299 pages
Publishing an atlas purporting to cover the history of the Jewish people from antiquity to the present is a
courageous, even audacious act… yet this atlas succeeds beautifully in doing just that. – Jehuda Reinharz,
President, Brandeis University
Few of the world’s peoples can boast of a history as long as varied as that of the Jews, or one
encompassing such a range of achievements and tragedy. It spans more than three millennia and has
touched most parts of the globe. This book for the first time sets forth this history geographically – in
nearly a thousand detailed and accurate maps; brilliantly reproduced drawings, photographs, and
paintings; plus chronologies and commentaries by dozens of leading experts. The result is a triumph of
the bookmaking art – a comprehensive and dependable reference work, a sumptuous gift volume.
Spread by spread, it covers all of the main themes of the Jewish experience: the earliest pre-history and
the background of the Bible, the movement of tribes, the geographical and political setting, the revolts
and wars and religious developments. We see the growth and shaping of the Jewish faith within the
turbulence of Middle Eastern history. Here are the Diaspora and the spread of Jews and Judaism not only
into Europe but as far as China and India; the scholars and philosophers; the medieval centuries and new
diasporas; pogroms and Zionism and new homelands beyond the Atlantic; the disaster of the Holocaust
and the founding of the state of Israel; and of course much more. Beyond the strictly historical, the Atlas
also deals with many fascinating and important aspects of Jewish culture – languages, literature, art and
music – to give a complete picture of a people through time.

Was there something special about the places God chose to stage His marvelous works of redemption?
O. Palmer Robertson answers those questions by giving Bible students and teachers a guided tour of the
Holy Land. He explores the mountains, plains, valleys, rivers and cities of Scripture, explaining their
meaning for our understanding of biblical events and the salvation of God’s people. In addition, this
guide includes a chapter on climate and vegetation, as well as archaeological notes, by John D. Currid of

Imagine the Bible’s portraying only perfect saints – people who never lied, never feared, never doubted
God. Instead, God chose to show His servants exactly as they were. 21 Bible characters come to life as
people we can identify and learn from because God uses imperfect servants to do His perfect will!

188 pages
This book is concerned to show what picture the Bible gives us of the apostle Paul. It gives us a pattern
for the strong, sure leadership so needed in the church today. Looking at Paul’s life and writings, we can
discover afresh the principles of church building and leadership that inspired the early church. Nor need
we be discouraged by the thought that Paul was an “impossible saint” who was near-infallible. Even his
failures have much to teach us of the way Jesus leads His people through His appointed servant. In Paul
we find a challenging example of what one man can achieve in a single generation, if he abandons himself
wholly to God.

Taken from Dr. McGee’s Thru the Bible radio messages, this volume (1 of 5) is specifically written to
meet the needs of lay Bible readers as well as clergy. Dr McGee deliberately avoids “the straitjacket of
printed prose and lofty verbiage.” His plain writing and lively approach make biblical truth
understandable and Bible study more enjoyable. Every verse-by verse commentary of each individual
Book is completed by an introduction and outline. Biblical truth comes alive through the relaxed sincerity
of his comments and anecdotes.

A triumph of rigorous scholarship and sound theological judgement, Keil & Delitzsch remains one of the
most popular Old Testament commentaries available. This commentary set includes a discussion of the
nature of Old Testament literature, introduces each book of the Old Testament, and offers in-depth
analyses of the Hebrew text. While the content is unchanged, its format has been updated, and some
errors from the original have been corrected. This edition is newly typeset in modern, easy-to-read type,
Arabic has been transliterated, biblical references have been changed from Roman to Arabic numerals,
and long paragraphs have been broken into shorter ones so that the work is easier to read. Other features
include:
 Proofreading of all Greek and Hebrew words
 Modernization of abbreviations
 A custom-designed font that is more readable than the original
 Standardized formatting for each volume (the original had different formats in each volume)
 Movement of the commentary on Ezra, Nehemiah and Esther from volume three to volume
four (to make each volume a more consistent length)
 Continuous pagination in each volume, with a separate table of contents for each volume
Volume One: Pentateuch
Volume Two: Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1 & 2 Samuel
Volume Three: 1 & 2 Kings, 1 & 2 Chronicles
Volume Four: Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job
Volume Five: Psalms
Volume Six: Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs
Volume Seven: Isaiah
Volume Eight: Jeremiah, Lamentations
Volume Nine: Ezekiel, Daniel
Volume Ten: Minor Prophets

brother and brother, parent and children. Reading the Bible accounts under Wallace’s guidance, we find
that we could constantly identify with the joys and tensions of family life as they experienced it so many
centuries ago, so that the well-known stories take on an unexpected freshness and relevance.

Israel’s United Monarchy

362 pages
With characteristic thoroughness and organization, the author investigates facets of Israel’s glory period,
the era during which boundaries were stretched, influence in world affairs was pronounced, and the
prestige of her kings was at all-time high. Wood masterfully covers the entire period of the united
monarchy and skillfully probes many provocative questions. Problems in the Scriptural text are not
avoided, but always addressed with a reverent attitude and a firm commitment to the infallibility of the
Word. The result is an outstanding study and analysis of Israel’s united monarchy, useful as a text and as
resource material.

The whole message and theme of the Bible, writes Cochrane, springs from and depends on God’s
covenant with Abraham, recorded in Genesis 12. It is this covenant which lays the foundation for God’s
majestic plan for the salvation of mankind. But who is this God who called Abraham? And why did he
consider it necessary to do this? Cochrane pursues the answers to these and other questions in a careful,
step-by-step examination of the first eleven chapters of Genesis, which form the prologue to God’s
covenant history with Abraham and all mankind.

222.1 SOL, 1994
148 pages
This invaluable aid to the study of the vessels and furniture of the Tabernacle offers the best in
scholarship and devotion. The Bible student who wants to understand the meaning of these worship
forms as revealed by God to Moses and their application in the epistle to the Hebrews will find this
volume most helpful. The author shows how the furniture and its use all typify Christ. The typology is
never wild or over-imaginative but conservative and biblical. There is also an excellent summary of the
history of the ark as recorded in the Scriptures. 10 full-color pages enhance the value of this classic work,
which is a companion volume to The Tabernacle, the Priesthood, and the Offerings by the same author.

The Genesis Record: A Scientific and 0-8010-6004-4
devotional commentary on the book of
beginnings
Grand Rapids: Baker
222.11 MOR, 1994
716 pages
Although there are more than twenty commentaries on Genesis currently in print, there is a unique need for this
one. So far as is known, this is the only commentary on the complete Book of Genesis written by a creationist
scientist. Clearly, it takes such a scientist, as well as a writer with Biblical and theological acumen, to understand
and expound this book of beginnings in depth.
In fact, if a Christian worker desires to develop a commentary shelf on Genesis for his library, he would do well to
begin with this one. A reader usually merely consults a commentary, but this volume tempts one to read it at
length. It is written as a narrative exposition rather than as a critical verse by verse analysis (although discussions of
all important historical and scientific problems are woven into the narrative); hence it is difficult to lay it down.
Dr. Morris writes from the conviction that the first eleven chapters of Genesis are as truly historical as the
remaining thirty-nine. This conclusion is not based simply on faith, but on many years of study of the scientific
aspects of the Genesis records and of the interchange of ideas with many other scientists, both creationists and
evolutionists. Since he and many of his colleagues are convinced that the earth and universe are young, rather than
billions of years old, he advocates a tight chronology in expounding Genesis. In handling that account of the
worldwide Noahic Flood, the author draws on his studies in hydrology and geology, in addition to his years of
teaching hydraulic engineering.
The fact that Dr. Morris has not received formal theological training does not hinder him from handling the
Biblical and theological implications effectively. There is evidence of wide reading and Bible study in depth. He
has taught adult and college Bible classes regularly for over thirty years. One will also find many applications to the
Christian life, with unusual insight into human character.
A thorough understanding of the book of Genesis is necessary if one is to understand the rest of sacred Scripture.
In this book, the reader is conducted by a capable guide through these important corridors of earth history. Arnold D. Ehlert

178 pages
A forceful sequel to The Genesis Flood, this book radiates an unshakeable faith in the authority of the
Word of God. Whitcomb maintains with vigor that the Bible declares and affirms a supernatural,
catastrophic flood of worldwide proportions, a declaration that is corroborated by scientific observations
that are not warped by a uniformitarian bias in geology. This new, revised version includes over 30 major
revisions, improved illustrations and photos, new charts, and minor improvements throughout.

This exhaustive and richly suggestive treatment of the Tabernacle, the priesthood, and the offerings is a
classic in its field. The author minutely discusses every part of his subject, yet there is no undue straining
of the types, nor fanciful spiritualizing. Soltau’s teaching is remarkable, not only for its clarity and depth,

The modern church needs the message of Numbers. Like Israel of old, the church today has
compromised the claims of God’s Word to a fearful degree and is reaping the inevitable consequences of
apostasy. Numbers shows with uncomfortable clarity why so many churches are sterile shells of what they
might have been, but also holds out the brilliant prospects of divine blessing for all who will commit their
way to the Lord.

In the book of Numbers, God tells us how to use the freedom Jesus purchased for us on the cross. He
describes the kind of people who can be counted on to believe His promises, accomplish His purposes,
and claim the inheritance He’s assigned to them. Don’t be a wanderer who goes through life never
reaching your inheritance. Be counted and trust Christ to lead you into God’s very best blessings.

Living on the Cutting Edge: Joshua and the

222.2 HUG, NASB, 1987
172 pages
With clear biblical exposition and intensely practical application, Pastor Kent Hughes shows how ancient
Israel’s gradual possession of the Promised Land is a model of how we come to grow as Christians into
further possession of our spiritual riches in Christ. Joshua is a living example of effective leadership, of
faithfulness in spiritual warfare, of living in faith and obedience, of the holiness of God, and of the folly
of human effort apart from the Lord. Written with warmth and wisdom, these studies in Joshua provide
solid, biblical encouragement for leaders and for all of us as we are faced with the tough decisions of
living on the cutting edge in our own lives today.

These 21 sparkling expositions are rooted first in a thorough analysis of the Hebrew text, employing
helpful insight from archaeology and linguistics, and second in the major theological and literary themes
discovered in each section (usually a chapter). Finally the author brings “the fragments together in an
expository treatment that is not even ashamed to stoop to the level of application.” The result is manna
for “God’s hungering people.”

Certain people stand head and shoulders above their peers in the biblical narrative. Joshua is one of these
people. It is not his physical stature that causes him to stand out – it is his spiritual character. Phillip
Keller sees beyond the printed word to this man who walked with God; waited patiently for His direction;
then moved unflinchingly forward to accomplish His will in the tasks God gave him to do. The life of
Joshua, mighty warrior and man of faith, offers us an adventure in Spirit-filled living.

The book consists of 2 parts: the first considers questions of a general nature. They concern matters of
identification, the rationale for the period and the way it is reported, the potential which the period held
for blessing, the nature of the world of the day, the character of the nations which brought oppression,
the marked blessings of the time when Joshua lived, and the variety and seriousness of sin that arose. The
second part probes particular matters which concern the distinct episodes that transpired. Discussion
centers on the leading people of the day, who were mainly judges, with special attention given to the story
involved, and also lessons from it to challenge and instruct for the Christian life. Maps, charts and
diagrams help pinpoint places, people and events, thus aiding the Bible student in his study of the period.

individuals and to the church. In the author’s own words “if this message does not give sinners and failing

274 pages
The absolute sovereignty of God and the triumph of his righteousness are the principal themes of 1
Samuel. In tracing the development of Israel from the anarchy of the period of the Judges – from Samuel
the prophet and kingmaker through Saul, the people’s choice, to david, God’s chosen king – the hand of
God is seen at work. The true consequences of rebellion against the Lord are also shown in the life of
Saul versus Samuel and David. The reader is pointed to the victory of Christ, the true king of whom
David is only a picture.

The history of David – the unfolding drama of 2 Samuel – gives us a slice of life in the real world. We see
people in their true colors. Gordon Keddie draws out the lessons of 2 Samuel and encourages us to look
expectantly for the blessing of God in our day since the story of David is a picture of David’s royal Son,
the Lord Jesus Christ, the Mediator-King who rules over all things and will in the fullness of his time
deliver up his consummated kingdom to his Father and ours.

In this unique combination of biography, commentary, and devotional, Arthur W. Pink offers an intimate
view of the many sides of David. The shepherd, the soldier, the king, and the sinner are revealed in a way
that cuts to the heart of life’s greatest problems. Raeders will be challenged, thrilled, and sobered as they
see the lessons God teaches in the life of “the man after God’s own heart.”

There are times when God’s plans for human good seem lost beyond retrieval, his followers almost
fizzled out in the darkness. Elijah was a spearhead of God’s new and unexpected initiative at just such a

After seventy years’ captivity God graciously allowed His people Israel to return from Babylon to their
homeland. Ezra was a teacher who helped them understand God’s law; Nehemiah was the governor
whom the king appointed over the people; and Esther became the Queen of Persia and helped the people
who did not return. The lives of all three have lessons for God’s people today.

In this outstanding practical study, the author traces the real meaning of Job’s suffering; he exposes the
superficiality of Job’s “friends” for “churning out texts when tears were needed.” He shows the real
comfort and instruction Job needed, by comparison: “Poor Job, Jesus would never treat you like that.”
This is a vividly-written, thrilling and practical account of one of the greatest, but most neglected portions
of the Bible.

sheep in Palestine. This book takes the reader into the rugged hills of the Palestine and beside its serene
pasture lands in an effort to accurately portray the experiences of the shepherd and the flock. Dr Davis
draws upon personal experiences while living among the shepherds to illustrate the meaning of the psalm.

“Alden admirably accomplishes his purpose of expounding the Proverbs by bringing out their bearing on
modern life. He uses homey applications, and occasional quotes from modern authors, songs and poems,
all of which make his commentary an excellent source for elders, pastors, and Sunday School teachers to
use.” – Elmer B. Smick

God gave King Solomon great wisdom and the Holy Spirit has given us Solomon’s wise sayings in the
Book of Proverbs! The heart of man does not really change from age to age so this wisdom is very useful
to us today. The bigger part of this Bible book consists of over 500 proverbs, which are short wise
sayings, most of them written by Solomon. This book puts each proverb together with others teaching
the same subject.

No study of a Christian world view is complete without the perspectives offered in the book of
Ecclesiastes on success, work, fame, pleasure, wealth, and time. Ecclesiastes is a Bible book often
misunderstood, but Dr Draper’s clear insight into the Scriptures brings real understanding of the
fruitlessness of the pursuit of the world’s wisdom.

But where can the good life be found? No one addresses such questions more pointedly than the writer
of Ecclesiastes. It affirms a good life – and shows us how to find it. Arranged in 13 chapters, each with
questions for discussion, this book is well studied to adult study groups and evangelistic Bible studies, as
well as private devotional reading.

204 pages
The most beautiful love story of all time. In this beautiful model of all that married love can be, you can
learn how to discover the pure joy of total giving, within the bond of marriage. Is it not logical that the
Holy Spirit would give us guidelines for sexual obedience — insights into the proper development of the
physical relationship within the marriage? By its inclusion in Scripture, this Song of Songs provides God’s
endorsement of such physical love between husband and wife.

All through the Christian centuries those who have had an insight into spiritual truth have thought of it
from 2 standpoints. First, as typifying the wondrous relationship that subsists between Christ and the
Church. And then, as setting forth the relationship between an individual soul and Christ. How many a
devoted saint has exclaimed with gladness, “Oh, I am my Beloved’s, and His desire is toward me.”

The prophecy of Isaiah may seem to be a strange and even difficult place from which to write a book
about comfort, but the final 27 chapters are rich beyond compare for those needing encouragement and
help. And this is anything but a book of the past. In this book, the author assures us that God knows
exactly what He is doing and is in complete control of every situation, even when He appears not to be.

587 B.C., Jerusalem has fallen. It is the darkest hour in Israel’s history. And in the midst of her anguish
and despair, a poet writes. Where pain and grief are, there is God, our portion, whose mercies are
unfailing, whose faithfulness is great. “Lamentations,” writes Dr Kaiser, “will teach us how to sharpen
our response to this greatest of all human difficulty by working through it in ways that accomplish the
purposes of God in our lives.”

Here are the fruits of many years of study and research on the prophecies of Daniel by one of the leading
American Old Testament scholars of this century. This volume is a welcome addition to the vast amount
of literature on Daniel because it provides seasoned and responsible exegesis of passages containing some
of the most difficult interpretive problems in the Bible, and it does so in a style that is accessible to lay
readers as well as those trained in Biblical studies.

Old Testament. They give just enough background and explanation to the text to let these men of old
speak afresh to us today – and confront us with the God who spoke through them. These minicommentaries are designed for both private and group study, and are especially useful for introducing
new Christians to Bible study.

The message of Amos is pre-eminently a message of new life. That message, however, comes in the
context of a nation under judgment. Israel hid the emptiness and godlessness of a corrupt society behind
an apathetic and nominal outward religion, like so many today. God’s view of our society is revealed in
Amos in no uncertain terms. While no refuge is offered for those who reject or disregard God’s will,
shining through the gloom most brightly is the precious offer of a way of escape, of new life through faith
in God’s Saviour, his Son Jesus Christ.

Times were tough for the first recipients of the prophecies of Haggai and Zechariah. They needed to be
encouraged to resume the work of reconstructing the temple – to awake from their lethargy and to be
enthusiastic for a life lived in obedience of God. Bentley has written a worthy addition to the Welwyn
Commentaries in giving a straightforward explanation of these two prophecies and applying their message
practically to the needs of the church today.

Here is a key to the little read, frequently overlooked portions of Scripture known as “The Minor
Prophets.” While their prophecies are short, in comparison with Isaiah, Ezekiel, and Jeremiah, their
messages are important, forming a definite and valuable part of God’s whole revelation to ma. Dr.
Ironside’s amazing gift for finding the heart of the lesson, and outlining it in readable, clear-cut style,
gives the reader a new understanding of the messages of the minor prophets, and their place in the plan
of God.

All the prophets of the Old Testament are milestones along the road to Calvary, but the prophecy of
Jonah opens a special window on the New Testament age, when the Lord Jesus Christ would be
proclaimed to all the ends of the earth. The message of Jonah is a lively oracle of God for our time,
teaching us much about human nature in the Christian and non-Christian.

Dr Robertson’s masterly knowledge of the Hebrew language, his vivid sense of the grace of God and the
twisted state of man’s heart, his ability to retell historical events and see their significance all combine to
explain what the message of the book of Jonah really is, and – since there is a sting in the tail – what it
means for us today.

The author of these meditations has been a missionary to China for many years. These were written
before the outbreak of World War 2, which struck first in China and later engulfed the whole world. The
manuscripts lay preserved in a warehouse in Shanghai, while the author was in an internment camp, and
were found by him upon his return and sent on for publication.

The prophet Malachi addresses the problem of spiritual degeneration, the fossilizing of our faith, and
through him, God challenges and accuses Israel about their spiritual condition. Benton shows how
Malachi’s book is a call from lax and hollow religion and points the way back to genuine, enduring faith in
the Lord who does not change.

It is not surprising that Galatians, the most controversial and explosive of Paul’s letters was Luther’s
favourite book of the Bible – “my own epistle to which I have plighted my troth.” But it was Ephesians
to which John Calvin reputedly turned for his choice as the book which meant most to him. Both books
encourage true knowledge of God and obedient Christian living. This commentary contains a thorough
introduction, a comprehensive outline, a careful translation and a scholarly commentary.

This translation of the New Testament, unlike the standard translations, uses as many English words as are
necessary to bring out the richness, force, and clarity of the Greek text. The result is what the author called an
expanded translation. It is intended as a companion to, or commentary on, the standard translations, and as such it
complements them.

I have read many books on prophecy. I am familiar with the various schools of thought and
interpretation. Much has been written about the Kingdom of God. But of all the books I have read, I
have never come across one that so clearly and so Scripturally deals with the Kingdom as does Dr Ladd’s
new volume. His interpretation of the parables is most illuminating and his interpretation of the Sermon
on the Mount is the clearest I have ever read. No one can study it without being deeply convicted. –

New Testament Commentary: The Gospel
of Matthew

1015 pages
The first gospel, written by one of the least conspicuous of the 12 apostles, is a book of primary
importance. Dr Hendriksen’s massive commentary soon reveals why this is so, and why, for the author,
the reading of Matthew “at one sitting is a thrilling experience. The book is simply irresistible.” The
commentary on the text is preceded by 100 pages of Introduction in which the author deals with the
“synoptic problem.” Dating the Gospel at around 63-66 AD, he shows the ineffectualness of the
attempted liberal “reconstruction” of the Gospel history.

Matthew’s gospel was not the first of the four to be written but it shows the connection between the Old
and the New Testaments better than the other three. Matthew’s great desire was that his own people,
Israel might be saved. So he showed in his gospel how Christ perfectly fulfilled the promises of God in
the Old Testament. Bob Sykes in this book brings out many beautiful thoughts about the Lord.

The Gospel of Mark is a portrait of Christ written from the perspective of a menial laborer, “A servant
doesn’t look at things the same way other men do. As Mark looks at our Saviour, we shall certainly learn
how we may serve Him better. We shall learn about our service by looking at the servant Saviour.”

Mark was “the interpreter” and the “disciple” of Peter and when we read his Gospel, we are sharing the
things that Peter and the other early apostles and evangelists told about Jesus. The outline of the Gospel
is like the outline of the Christian preaching that we read of in the Acts of the Apostles.

It will not be a matter of surprise to find that Dr Hendriksen’s Commentary on Mark follows hard on the
heels of his Commentary on Matthew. The Gospel of Mark has its own distinct importance, and, in
introducing this Gospel, he deals in turn with what he considers to be its three main characteristics,
compactness, vividness and orderliness. He does not accept that Mark is chiefly concerned to supply a
record of events, rather the Gospel has a doctrinal and thoroughly practical aim – to bring about
transformation and furnish an incentive for living to the glory of God.

Service is the keynote of the Gospel of Mark, and speed its characteristics. There is a charm about it
which is distinctively its own, much of which is created by the bluntness and brevity of the writing of a
man evidently untrained in literary methods, but also by its fast-moving chronological continuity. There is
freshness and vigor about it which immediately grips and binds. Dr Morgan prepared these expositions in
the very spirit of this Gospel.

What is your aim? What do you really want of your life? Do you want to live it for yourself, or do you
want to live it for God and others? Covering Mark 1:1-8:26, Dr Stedman presents rich, vivid expositions
which enable us to witness God at work—then and now—breaking into history to change people and
help them build new lives. One theme flows throughout these inspiring accounts of the parables,
teachings, miracles, and healings of Christ: To one who voluntarily serves, God gives the power aslo to
rule.

This book picks up the Gospel narrative where its companion volume, The Servant Who Rules, left off — in
the eighth chapter. This chapter is the turning point of Mark’s Gospel, says Dr Stedman. “From this
point, Jesus is on His way to Jerusalem… yet on the way, as we shall see, He is still ministering to men.”
Dr Stedman’s vivid, informative chapter-by-chapter exposition of the Book of Mark relates to the
modern Christian who takes seriously the command, “if anyone would be first, he must be last of all and
servant of all.”

As a young man John Mark must have had high hopes and aspiration about serving God. When the
opportunity for service finally came, he failed miserably. When the “going got tough,” he fled to the
safety of home, and service took on a whole new meaning. Though he started poorly, John Mark finished
well. He became a valuable asset to Paul in his later ministry. John Mark was a man who knew what it
means to have a second chance, and it was this man whom the Holy Spirit used to write the second
gospel—the “servant” gospel.

The Gospel of Mark appeals to active people, especially to men and women on the go. The book is full of
action. More than forty times Mark uses an adverb translated as “straightway,” “forthwith,” or
“immediately.” Many narratives are connected with “and,” as if Mark hardly had time to pause. To further
give credence to this thought, the Gospel of Mark contains no genealogy and very little discourse. The
teachings of Jesus generally rise out of His activity… The Lord Jesus Christ came to serve.

The gospel of Luke views Jesus Christ as a genuine human being. In fact, Luke uses the phrase Son of Man
some twenty-four times in his gospel. He wanted believers to be well-grounded in their faith in Jesus
Christ, Son of God and son of man. Luke’s gospel is a historically accurate account of Christ’s life and
ministry. Over 50 percent of his writing is unique, containing information about Christ’s life found
nowhere in the gospels.

More than any of the other Gospel writers, Luke shows us the Lord dealing with individual people and
how their lives were changed as a result of their personal encounter with him. These people are from all
ranks of society. As the only New Testament writer who was not a Jew, Luke consciously writes his
account for Gentiles as well as Jews, showing that the message of the gospel is for all kinds of people in
this fallen world.

This volume completes the series on the four Gospels which began with the author’s Commentary on
John in 1954. Far from being an addendum to earlier volumes, it both exceeds them in length and adds
features which probably express the writer’s final decisions on the best arrangement for a commentary.
This comprehensive commentary is completed with a subject index of the Synoptic Gospels for crossreference.

Jesus called Himself “the Son of man.” He showed compassion toward all kinds of people… The
hopeless and the helpless looked to Him, and he never failed to meet their needs. As you study Dr.
Luke’s record of the Great Physician, Jesus Christ, you will better understand God’s compassion and
thereby be motivated to a greater degree to show loving concern for others. .. As never before, Dr.
Wiersbe believes, God is calling His people to be compassionate.

Luke knew exactly what he was doing when he wrote the Gospel. He tells us about his goal in the
opening verses: to set forth an orderly and accurate account of what had been accomplished by the life
and teaching of Jesus Christ. In this up-to-date exposition, Michael Wilcock gives special attention to
these opening words. Then, as he examines the individual deeds and sayings of Jesus, he shows how the
structure of Luke’s narrative affects their meaning.

As we grow up we form ideas of what certain people will do and what they won’t do. We even do this
with God. Jesus’ greatest difficulties were with people who thought they had God completely figured out.
These people still had eyes but they could not see. They had ears but they could not hear. How do you
communicate with someone who knows everything?

Skillfully addressing the ordinary reader, Don Carson takes us through the finale of Jesus’ teaching
ministry- a passage which touches on many of the great themes of the Christian faith. What holds Christ’s
words together here is the theology of his death, as the cross looms just ahead in Jesus’ experience.

John- Apostle of Love

226.5 MCQ, 1983
128 pages
The youngest of the apostles, John said more about the tremendous power of love than any other New
Testament writer. In his account of the gospel, he proclaimed the Living Word as the source of eternal
life. He underlined the bases of assurance in his epistles. And he shared God’s plan for the future ages in
the Revelation. He outlived the other apostles, and upon his death the apostolic age came to a close. This
small book traces John’s life from his boyhood home on galilee’s shore, through his experiences as a
member of the “inner circle” of Christ’s apostles, to the establishment of the church in Jerusalem, and
through the ministry of his later years in Asia Minor.

Rarely does on find a commentary on a book of the Bible which has so many helps and insights as this
exposition of the Gospel of John. The author offers his readers a distinctively different commentary. His
use of alliteration provides sermonic seed-thoughts unfolding John’s truth with clarity and beauty to
stimulate and inspire exposition. Pastors and Bible students will appreciate the unique systematic study of
verses and homilies which offer penetrating thought for the deeper Christian life.

The Book of Acts is an outline of the program of the Lord for His followers. They are to be His
witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea, in Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth. The Lord
presented this program and outlined his expansion, and in this volume Dr Criswell shows us how Luke
follows that outline in writing the Book of Acts. First we see the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the
disciples in Jerusalem. Then we read of the evangelization of Judea in the villages, highways, and by-ways.
Expanding further, the gospel is preached to the Samaritans, who are part-Jew. Luke then traces the
preaching of the gospel to the Gentiles, such as the proselyte in the temple and Cornelius. This was the
beginning of the ministry to the “uttermost parts of the earth,” and the three missionary journeys of Paul
carry this out. With this volume, Dr Criswell begins a multi-volume work on the Book of Acts. In
unfolding the content of the book, the author will show us how the Lord continued His work through
the Holy Spirit in the first-century church. The Book of Acts does not only show us the acts of the
apostles, but more specifically the acts of the Holy Spirit. Volume 1 takes us through the first eight
chapters of Acts. It includes the events of the pre-Saul era, ending with the stoning of Stephen.

This constitutes the second volume of the author’s exposition of the Book of Acts. It begins with Saul’s
conversion recorded in chapter 9. It includes the discussion of Peter’s experience with Cornelius after
which the gospel began to be preached to the Gentiles. From this experience we see how the gospel is
taken to the many parts of the world when Paul went on his missionary journeys. Volume 2 discusses the
first two journeys and the beginning of the third. The Spirit moves through these verses in Acts and
makes them full of meaning for our church today. We still must bring the gospel to men everywhere. The
man of God who is full of the Spirit is the man who of all others is most blessed. The church that is full
of the moving Spirit of God is the church that is like a heaven on earth.

After a period of about three years and 128 messages, Dr Criswell has covered the 28 chapters of Acts.
He has given us an exposition of Dr Luke’s church history, and the pilgrimage of the beloved physician
through the ministries of Peter and Paul. Dr Criswell has shown us that the Book of Acts is an outline of
the program of the Lord for His followers, which the author has outlined for us. In this volume we
discuss Acts 19-28 and we see how Paul concludes his missionary journeys and also his journey to Rome
where he ended his ministry by giving his life for the cause of Christ. The Lord worked through the Holy
Spirit in the first-century church, and continues to work through His church and children today.

The Acts of the Apostles is a book that throbs with life and action. In it we see the Holy Spirit at work,
forming the church, giving power to the church, and expanding the outreach of the church. It is the
magnificent record of the Sovereign Spirit using most unlikely instruments, overcoming most formidable
obstacles, employing most unconventional methods, and achieving most remarkable results.

“Some sections of the Bible give us grand theology. Some move us to grateful reponses to God. But the
parables break through mere words and make us ask whether there has indeed been any real difference in
our lives. And isn’t this what we should expect, since the parable come from the lips of Jesus?” Through
these studies, both in the pulpit and through the radio ministry of “The Bible Study Hour,” listeners have
been blessed and lives changed. Now they can do the same for you.

Told in the first person as if by witnesses, the miracles Jesus performed and the parables he taught come
to life with deeper meaning. These dramatic presentations of Jesus’ ministry retold in contemporary
language have been used by Dr. Loughhead in worship services. They involve the congregation in active
participation. Like the formal sermon, these powerful “eyewitness” messages call for personal action.
Chapters include questions for discussion or reflection. Highly recommended for personal inspirational
reading.

The parables of Jesus are amazing stories! They act as both mirrors and windows. As mirrors, they help us
to see ourselves more clearly. As windows, they enable us to better see life and God. “The parables are
not bedtime stories to put us to sleep, but bugle calls to wake us up.”

The author earned a well-deserved reputation as a provocative, insightful, humorous, and highly readable
theologian. He communicates the mysteries, nuances, and profundities of the Christian faith in an
inimitable style that is more like a conversation with the reader than a theological lecture. His insistence
that the essence of the gospel is grace provides a much-needed corrective to the contemporary version of
success-oriented Christianity.

The message articulated by Jesus from the mount was certainly different—totally different—from
anything the people had ever heard before. The author assesses the true Christian character—its impact
upon society—and what a person who puts into practice the principles of the Sermon on the mount can
achieve. It is a look at the happiness and fulfillment available to anyone who follows the principles Christ
shared with His disciples.

146 pages
For nearly 2000 years, the Sermon of the Mount has been the subject of endless discussion and
controversy. Authors Dockery and Garland bring puzzling background information on Old testament
law, Jewish faith and culture that makes this monumental passage more easily understandable. What does
it mean to be “the salt if the earth” in the 1990s? What are the real implications of going the “second
mile”? The Christian who wants to translate faith into vital lifestyle will find practical encouragement in
these teachings of Jesus.

The Lord’s Prayer is considered step by step, from its beginning words of worship to “The Power and the
Glory” of the conclusion. Something of the unfathomable depths of this simple prayer is revealed, and
from it is developed a pattern of the spirit of all praying which is acceptable to God.

227 LUC
191 pages
Fullness and freedom—two aspects of Christian life that we all want to share. Paul wrote about them at
length (and depth) in his letter to the Christians at Colossae, where certain new teachers were proclaiming
that mere Christianity is not enough. There is, they suggested, a fuller experience, a greater liberation, than
they had so far enjoyed. But Paul was adamant: all God’s fullness is in Christ alone, and only through His
complete work are we set free.

The charismatic movement has made an impact on the church unparalleled in history. But one of the
legacies of the movement has been confusion and mushy thinking. In this book, the author calls for
biblical evaluation and analyzes the doctrinal differences between charismatics and non-charismatics in
the light of Scripture.

Many Christians have not understood or heeded Paul’s warnings about man-made philosophy, and they
try to combine the wisdom of this world—psychology, philosophy, science, “common sense”—with the
wisdom revealed by God in the Bible. The result is a mixture of truth and error that tends with time to
become more and more error and less and less truth. But in 1 Corinthians Paul makes clear that he does
not speak or write the words of man’s wisdom, but the words given by God himself. For this reason, this
commentary on Paul’s first letter to the church at Corinth is must reading for all Christians, especially
those who are apt to be seduced by the wisdom of the world.

368 pages
Entirely free from sentimentality this moving exposition of 1 Corinthians 13 reveals Edwards’ insistence
both that true Christian experience is “supernatural” – Spirit-produced and Christ-centred- and that “all
true Christian grace tends to practice.” These sermons show how it is possible to steer between
Arminianism on the one hand and Antinomianism on the other. The concluding chapter on heaven as a
world of love is perhaps the most beautiful in all Edward’s writings.
1. All True Grace in the Heart Summed up in Charity, or Love
2. Charity or Love, More Excellent Than Extraordinary Gifts of the Spirit
3. All That Can be Done or Suffered in Vain Without Charity, or Love
4. Charity Meek in Bearing Evil and Injuries
5. Charity Cheerful and Free in Doing Good
6. The Spirit of Charity the Opposite of an Envious Spirit
7. The Spirit of Charity an Humble Spirit
8. The Spirit of Charity the Opposite of a Selfish Spirit
9. The Spirit of Charity the Opposite of an Angry or Wrathful Spirit
10. The Spirit of Charity the Opposite of a Censorious Spirit
11. All True Grace in the Heart Tends to Holy Practice in the Life
12. Charity Willing to Undergo All Sufferings for Christ
13. All the Christian Graces Connected and Mutually Dependent
14. Charity, or True Grace, Not to be Overthrown by Opposition
15. The Holy Spirit Forever to be Communicated to the Saints, in Charity, or Love
16. Heaven, A World of Charity, or Love

Hodge's work on 1 and 2 Corinthians forms one of the most significant pasrts of the plan for a series of
"popular commentaries" on the New Testament which he projected with J.A.Alexander in the 1850's.
When the early death of Alexander (1860)prevented the completion of the series, the individual volumes
were quickly prized in their own right and went through many editions on both sides of the Atlantic.
The qualities which have given Hodge's commentaries such a wide and enduring market are readily to be
seen. In the first place they are singularly clear. The technicalities of critical opinion, which soon cause a
volume to become "dated", are not to be foun in his pages. His aim is to produce commentaries which
learned and unlearned alike could consult with profit. Believing that he was dealing with the words of the
Holy Spirit he endeavoured to set out both what those words contain and the effects which their truth
should have upon the conscience and life... none who know Hodge's merits will choose to work on
Corinthians without his aid.

Why does God hide certain of His secrets and ways from us? Is it for our good? Is such a partial
revelation of Himself for our glory? The second chapter of First Corinthians says it is. In this book, the
author endeavored to expound from Scripture the whys and hows of the mysteriousness of God and His
dealings with us. Understanding this great chapter of the Bible will give us greater insight into this matter.

Crucial topics raised by Paul and developed in this vibrant and outstanding exposition are: the nature of
Christian leadership; the evil that lies in much boasting; Christian maturity; the responsibility of individual
Christians and of local churches for the styles of leadership they follow; and, most basically, the church as
a “called out community of pilgrims whose allegiance is to Jesus Christ but whose maturity is often
wanting.”

To this commentary on Second Corinthians, Dr. Kent brings his broad knowledge of the ancient Near
East, its geography, literature, and archaeology. His informal, yet accurate, writing style makes the study
of this intriguing letter to the Corinthians come alive. The chapters explore the theological debate, the
subtle influence of flase teachers, unjustified gossip, and the questions about apostolic authority. This
epostle also provides an intimate glimpse of the apostle Paul not only as a man but also as a theologian
and evangelist. The concept of really ministering to others is clearly spelled out.

People who fight battles and carry burdens are the best candidates to receive blessings. That’s what Paul
told the downhearted Corinthians. They often felt troubled and perplexed, just as believers do today. But
God didn’t desert- and he won’t desert us either. He comforts His hurting children as only “the God of
all comfort” can. This study of 2 Corinthians shows how God can turn your trials into triumphs and your
sufferings into service.

As a writer and scholar whose career spanned the latter part of the 19th century and the early 20th century,
Sir William Ramsay’s keen insights into first-century culture and geography have always been valued by
biblical scholars of succeeding generations. One of his best-known works, this book is a classic study of
the cultural and historical backgrounds of Paul’s letter. Ramsay’s view of the perplexing problem of the
North/South Galatians question remains as applicable today as when it was first published in 1899.
64 short chapters of commentaries followed by 23 chapters on the society and religion in central Asia
Minor in the time of St. Paul. Useful for historical investigations.

The commentary is so arranged that it serves the needs and answers the questions of the advanced
scholar, the pastor and the layman. A thorough introduction deals with the background, an outline shows
its organic structure, and each section is preceded by the author’s own translation of the Greek text,
which reproduces the true flavor of the original in idiomatic, modern English. After the commentary, a
synthesis brings into focus and summarizes the central ideas. Points of grammar essential to a clear
interpretation and other specialized problems are dealt with separately to ensure full and adequate
treatment without impeding the free flow of the commentary.

Written in response to the problems of a small church in Asia Minor during the first century A.D., Paul’s
letter to the Colossians is still highly relevant in this modern age of dissatisfaction and moral confusion.
The solution it offers in such situations, be they past or present, is not some heroic spiritual effort to rise
abocve ourselves, but the divine person of Jesus Christ, in whom we are complete by virtue of his work
of redemption.

283 pages
These in-depth expositions of the first chapter of Colossians examine salvation and the Christian’s
relationship to God in Christ. Lloyd-Jones traces out the implications of each phrase of the text as he
explains the fullness of the gospel and the re-created life. It would be difficult to find a commentary equal
in pastoral insights and clarity in relating the Christian experience to God through the doctrines of
atonement, justification and sanctification. The thought is strongly centered in daily living, making the
book a book for homiletics and soteriology students to use now, and then take into the pastorate with
them. the author explores both the inclusivity and exclusivity of the gospel and the freedom of the
believer as holy, unblamable, and unreprovable before God.

The questions about God allowing the existence of evil haven’t changed. Paul confronts faith-shaking
negatives with assuring positives. You need to know to whom you belong and what He has done for you;
about the power available to you; and that you are loved and forgiven by the God who rules over all. This
helpful exposition of the letter to the Colossians with down-to-earth examples brings Paul’s letter into
clear focus for contemporary Christians who wrestle with questions of their identity and self-worth.

Most of us have never experienced the persecution and hatred that were directed at the Thessalonian
Christians, but we’ve all had times when we’ve felt pressured. Perhaps it’s been unjust criticism, harmful
gossip or unfair treatment. Our natural tendency is to retreat. But Christ has given us resources that
enable us to stand firm when we’d rather retreat. We have all we need to take both an offensive and
defensive, to be joyful always, pray continually, and give thanks in all circumstances.

There are 3 features in this book which call for special mention: (1) Dr Hendriksen’s ability to anticipate,
propound and answer the kind of questions likely to occur to the thoughtful reader. This he
accomplishes, without pandering to idle curiosity and conjecture; (2) his gift of applying the Apostolic
teaching and its lessons to present day circumstances in the Church and in the World; (3) His use of
simple and happy illustrations, suggestions and contrasts. These are merits which at once serve to
facilitate the reading of the Commentary and greatly enhance its value. – Fraser MacDonald, M.A.

Rarely does one find a small volume with so much illustrative and expository material on a given book of
the Bible as this work. The author gives a wealth of enrichment for our spiritual lives in 27 chapters of
choice exposition on the first three chapters of First Thessalonians. Here a truly great teacher carries us to
heights where flashes of practical truth illuminate our minds and lead us on paths to a deeper walk with
the Lord. The outlines alone are an eye-opener in understanding this unique epistle of Paul and will be of
tremendous help to the preacher for his pulpit ministry.

The author shows how Paul’s letters of encouragement are particularly relevant for us, speaking with
power and clarity to our present needs. They voice a father’s faithful concern, a mother’s tender
understanding, a brother’s readiness to stand by to the end: and above all, they bring a fresh realization of
the resources believers already possess in the Spirit’s inner strengthening and the certainty of Christ’s
return.

In 1 Timothy, Paul gives specific directions to the young minister at Ephesus. “These charges set forth
principles for the dependable, faithful servant of God. They also contain guidelines for the life of the
local church.” Key verses in Paul’s letter to Timothy are expertly discussed in understandable language.
Unusual words and phrases are explained and complicated passages are competently unraveled. The 13
chapters are ideal for Sunday school classes or Bible Study groups, providing a typical quarter of 13
weeks. Discussion questions conclude each chapter.

Dr. Kent has provided a careful and detailed exegesis, and deals as well with the problems that occur in
interpretation and background. He presents the content in readable yet scholarly style. This book suited
both as a text for classroom use and as a commentary for pastors and laymen. It is by far one of the most
useful works on the pastoral epistles.

Many Christians can expound right doctrine, but can’t apply Scripture to everyday life. Others maintain a
storefront godliness, but have little real understanding of biblical teaching. Paul’s epistle to Titus stressed
both right believing and right living. In this book, the author examines Paul’s important letter paragraph
by paragraph.

In the face of dramatically changing social values in America, what should the Christian do? May he make
moral and ethical judgments on the basis of a relative and changing standard? Dr Getz leaves the reader
with no doubt that God has an unalterable moral standard and that “in the midst of a changing world,
true believers must be sure they do not become a part of the world’s system as they live in the midst of
this system.” Each chapter begins with Scripture verses and an outline and ends with an application, an
opportunity for a “personal life response,” and a suggested group or individual project.

The epistle to the Hebrews has more Christ exalting teaching perhaps than any other New Testament
letter. At the same time, it contains a number of very strong warnings to the readers, and these darker
passages have been a problem to many Christians. In this book, the author explains these problems by
carefully examining the position and temptations of the original readers. At the same time, he will warm
your heart by magnifying the Lord Jesus Christ, the coming King, whose kingdom is unshakable.

A thoroughly competent and up-to-date interpretation, it strikes a happy medium between being

A systematic commentary on 2 important New Testament epistles, and using analytical outlines to present
the natural organization of the epistle, this book provides a clearer understanding of the unity and
message of Peter’s writing. The dominant theme of 1 Peter, as the author points out, is hope; and the
theme of 2 Peter, is knowledge.

The everyday problems discussed in the five chapters of James make this epistle one of the Bible’s most
practical books. What could be more applicable to daily Christian than solid Bible teaching on wisdom,
faith, trials, temptation, patience, good works, the tongue, worldliness, God’s will, humility and
relationships with other Christians? In this book, the author discusses these vital subjects and their
implications for Christians who want to live godly lives in these last days.

Doubt: The measure of a Christian based

How often each of us is tempted to doubt! Instead of believing God, we attempt to take it all on
ourselves—to survive our trials, overcome our temptations and build our own successful lives. Studies in
James 1, more so than any other New Testament book, focuses on and defines how we can develop the
mind of Christ in an intensely personal way. It provides us with the opportunity to achieve the unerring
faith of Christ. James 1 is an inspirational guide to renewing your mind and discovering God’s will.

How does the Christian cope with the real world? How do we put our faith into action and live in
anticipation of the Lord’s return? The epistle of James is a manual for practical godliness. Everything is
here, including facing trials, blaming God for misfortunes, snobbery, sharp tongues, faith and works,
squabbling in churches, worldliness and the use of money.

issues. The detailed outline illumines the apostle’s points throughout the epistle, and his extensive

commentary is also intended for those not familiar with that language. Beyond the examination of words,
this commentary is a study of the practical, powerful message of the epistle, teaching you to hope in
Christ while facing trouble and suffering. It will satisfy your mind without ignoring your needs as a
person.

The people to whom peter wrote his first epistle were already undergoing trials of all kinds and were soon
to face fierce persecution for their faith. The apostle writes to encourage and strengthen them. He has a
great deal to say about relationships, both to fellow Christians and to unbelievers, in the workplace and at
home, in church and society. In the second epistle, Peter warns against another danger – false teaching.
He points them to God’s Word as their one sure light.

The author believes that John’s Epistles were written to counteract false teachers who were influencing
Christians in the church. An exposition of these epistles could not be more timely as often people who
come to Christ today have little or no church background- they can be easily influenced by false teaching.
The most secure way of avoiding being deceived is to know the Father and the Son. Michael Eaton brings
out this balanced approach to help give us healthy and fruitful church members.

The ministry of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi is a record of how God deals with people he has restored
as they try to translate their basic loyalty to him into practical action. Restoring the temple and the
physical trappings of their ravaged kingdom was not an end in itself. God was, and is, primarily in itself.
God was, and is, primarily interested in obedient minds and wills in people who have a heart for God.

the focal point of history, the marks of the church, true worship, spiritual gifts, church government,
Christian community and the church’s relationship to the dominant culture and to the state. He closes

the work of the Holy Spirit in justification and sanctification. The book closes with careful discussions of
ecclesiology and eschatology. In this revised edition of a formerly four-volume work, Boice maintains a

A Systematic Theology of the Christian

Singapore: Christian Life
230 BUS, 1994
1040 pages
Formerly issued in 2 volumes, this comprehensive studies provides scholarly answers to a whole series of
theological questions. Dr Buswell’s experience in teaching and writing has fitted him eminently for this
work. His theological position is conservative, orthodox, evangelical, and his theological studies have
been enriched and enlightened by a thorough background in the philosophical and social sciences. Here is
a work already established as an important contribution to the literature dealing with systematic theology.
Particular features of this studies are (1) Emphasis upon the value of inductive evidences; (2) Insistence
upon the dynamic nature of God’s immutability; (3) Relation of creation records to the plan of salvation;
(4) Relation of miracles to works of providence; (5) Details of the study of the person and the nature of
Christ in His incarnation; (6) Presentation of the substitutionary atonement with emphasis upon the fact
that Christ is not a “third party” but that He, as the Mediator, both God and man, is the party sinned
against in all human sin; (7) Emphasis upon the purity of the visible church as a divinely ordained unit of
discipline for the maintaining of the purity of the Sacraments and of the proclamation of the Gospel.
Constructive Scriptural synthesis, rather than the pursuit of varying opinions, has been the background
against this discussion has developed. Here is a work that will remain a basic text for coming generations
of theological students.

The first edition of Erickson's Christian Theology was the standard for conservative evangelical
systematic theology. Erickson has updated Christian Theology based on the feedback from theology
students and professors. Erickson also added a chapter on postmodernism, and has included chapter
objectives, summaries, and study questions.
Erickson writes from a conservative, evangelical, Baptist perspective. He is reformed, but not ardently
Calvinistic. Christian Theology is a technical/semi-technical work, requiring knowledge of Hebrew and
Greek (Erickson has added Greek transliteration to go along with the existing Hebrew transliteration). It
is designed for use in seminaries, but is accessible to educated lay-readers as well. Scriptural quotations are
generally from the New International Version, though Erickson defers to the original languages.
At over 1300 pages, Christian Theology offers incredible depth of detail. Its meticulous analysis of the
major issues in theology will prove helpful to all theology students, and Erickson's chapter summaries and
study questions easily lend themselves to the classroom setting. Christian Theology is an indispensable
tool for pastors, students and church leaders.

Christian theology. They believe that a grasp of Christian thought in its development will benefit the
student most. Thus this book introduces the reader to the main themes of theology within the context of
historical development from pre-Mosaic biblical times all the way through to contemporary thought.
Students can see each biblical theme in the context of the Old and New Testaments and the intertestamental period, and they can follow the reflections of the church on a given doctrine in every period
of history. This presentation is unique. It will be helpful to Calvinists and Arminians, dispensationalists
and non-dispensationalists.

“Present day conditions,” writes the author, “call loudly for a new examination and a new presentation of
God’s omnipotence, God’s sufficiency, God’s sovereignty. From every pulpit in the land it needs to be
thundered forth that God still lives, that God still observes, that God still reigns. Faith is now in the
crucible, it is being tested by fire, and there is no fixed and sufficient resting-place for the heart and mind
but in the Throne of God. What is needed now, as never before, is a full, positive, constructive setting
forth of the Godhood of God.”

1210 pages
A New Systematic Theology of the Christian Faith expresses a fully biblical Reformed faith, showing its
enduring appeal, coherence, and truthfulness. Faithful to historic Calvinist convictions, this new
benchmark of Reformed Theology covers all the main teachings of the Bible and engages contemporary
theological issues with the resources of biblical revelation and sound historical reflection so that the
light of the Reformation continues to illumine the life of Christ's church today. A contemporary,
foundational statement of classic reformed faith, now revised and updated. "In this masterful, readerfriendly volume, veteran theologian Robert Reymond updates the classic Reformed theology of Charles
Hodge, B. B. Warfield, and John Murray...Logically structured and thoroughly argued on all points of
dispute, Reymond's magnum opus will be prized by teachers, students, and all who care for what was
once called 'purer theology'." Ed Clowney comments that Reymond "does not shrink from difficult
questions, but reasons with his readers. He sits down with us to clear our heads, humble our hearts, and
bring the glories of sovereign grace to our lips." - J.I. Packer

Before we attempt to teach or evangelize, we must listen to God’s Word and God’s World. Only then will
we be able to communicate the authentic gospel effectively. John Stott models this “double listening” as
he tackles 5 key questions:
1. Amid skepticism inside the church as well as outside, what is the authentic gospel?
2. In a world torn by pain and need, what characterizes the obedient disciple?
3. Now that the Bible is often set aside as culturally irrelevant, how can we relate it with integrity to
contemporary society?
4. Given the church’s general lack of credibility, what is her calling and how can she fulfill it?
5. In a pluralistic society and a hungry world, what is the church’s mission?

Essential ingredient or optional extra—what is the place of the Holy Spirit in the lives of Christians/
How should we react to the present emphasis on the role of the Spirit in church life? The teaching of the
Bible and current experience often seems out of step. This book starts with the conviction that the Bible
starts with the conviction that the Bible must determine our experience—and shows that a deeper
awareness of the Spirit could transform our lives, our worship, our witness and our relationships.

“A book to dispel confusion of thought on this topic,” is the way Canon A.T. Houghton describes this
brief volume by a renowned writer and preacher. The gifts, fruits, the baptism of the Holy Spirit—all of
these, together with other doctrines, continually confront the Christian. Yet they are often confusing or
enigmatic to the believer. It is not easy to understand such doctrines or refer to the scripture on which
they are based. The reader will find this concise book extremely helpful and inspiring.

This companion volume to his Joy Unspeakable examines the related question of the gifts of the Holy
Spirit and their place in God’s purposes. With compelling analysis, the author discusses the teaching of
Scripture and apostolic history concerning the ordinary and extraordinary gifts of the Spirit. Exhorting us
to “prove all things,” he charts a surprising course between the extremes of undiscerning enthusiasm and
a spirit of unbelief.

185 pages
Every Christian strives for an unshakable faith that doubts cannot overcome. In this book, Redpath
shows in practical ways how this goal can be achieved and challenged the reader to attain the biblical ideal
of faith- the “substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” With spiritual insight and
weathered experience, the author explains how living in the Spirit requires both faith and obedience.

For He has chosen to tell us of Himself, in His Word. And he has placed within us the capacity to know
Him. The attributes of God are His personal characteristics that show how He has acted and spoken in
the past. Because God is unchanging, we can trust Him to be for us what He ever has been. While we will
never fully know God in this life, we can continually come to know Him better. In this warm pastoral
book, John Bisagno leads you to the very personal attributes of the God you can both love and serve.

The long war against God is the most comprehensive treatment of a single important subject that I have
ever seen. To read this book carefully is to receive a uniquely significant, in-depth perspective on the
origin and operation of our world. Dr. Morris documents the fact that the idea of evolution did not
originate with Darwin Evolutionism is basic in ancient and modern ethnic religions and in all forms of
pantheism… Modern evolutionism is simply the continuation of Satan’s long war against God- David

priesthood. But far from a mere presentation of facts, this book challenges you to reckon with Jesus

The writers of the four Gospels focus special attention on the events surrounding the death of Jesus. The
final seven days of his life are recorded in considerable detail, because his crucifixion stands at the heart
of the Christian faith. But we sometimes fail to see that the Gospels also devote considerable space to the
forty days which followed the resurrection. T.V. Moore reminds us of the importance and provides a sure
guide to the significance of our Lord’s ministry to His disciples during those weeks.

What the Bible teaches about the Son of God – truths that touch the very core of your faith. How could
Jesus have preexisted His conception and birth? What does the Incarnation really mean? How important
is the Virgin Birth? Would it have been possible for Jesus to sin? Could Christianity get along without the
Cross? Why should I believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus? What is Jesus doing for me now?
Demarest answers these and many other questions relating to our Lord. He shows that the truths the
Bible teaches about Jesus are much more than theoretical or theological concerns. They are basic to the
Christian faith – basic to your own faith.

The Lord Jesus Christ is the centre of true Christianity. Yet modern cults teach things about his person
that are far less glorious than what the Scriptures teach about him. Who, then, is Jesus Christ? This is a
book that will strengthen our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and lead us to fall afresh at his feet in a spirit
of praise and worship. Here we see Christ in all his human nature and divine glory, truly Son of Mary and
Son of God.

“And the crowd were always with Him. From His birth to His death He was in a crowd… Christ singled
out individuals from the crowd for His attention and love.” And twenty centuries later Christ is still doing
that. Many are forgotten, faceless, nameless persons with no viability, but Jesus Christ knows them
intimately. Carter writes warmly about Christ and the crowd at the cradle, in the country, in the city and at
the cross. He explores the named and unnamed persons Jesus drew out of the teeming throngs.

Calvary cast a shadow over the whole of our Lord’s ministry. It was, however, in the last hours of His
earthly life that He entered into the full consciousness of “the cup” of suffering which He had to drink.
In this work, the author leads us through the awesome trial of our Lord Jesus Christ. These he interprets
in the light of the fulfillment of the Scriptures and the subsequent fruit of Christ’s suffering. This volume
is profound, practical and intended to promote “both the doctrine which is according to godliness and
the godliness which is according to doctrine.”

Although much of the Bible is straightforward, Christians and seekers alike are perplexed by some of
Jesus’ puzzling statements. Noted Bible teacher Ron Rhodes tackles them and help you with teachings
like- “take up your cross and follow Me”; “let the dead bury their own dead”; “if your eye causes you to
sin, pluck it out”; and “blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.” In his engaging, easy-to-read
style, Rhodes provides solid, biblical, cultural and historical research to help you discover why Jesus said
what he did 2000 year ago.

The opening verses of the best-known of all Christ’s sermons were handled by many Puritans for the
Beatitudes gave full scope to the combination of sound doctrine, practical wisdom and heart-searching
application which characterized their preaching. To these general Puritan characteristics Thomas Watson
added certain of his own: a master of a terse, vigorous style and of a beauty of expression, he could speak
not only to win men’s understanding but also to secure a place for the truth in their memories. More than
most of his generation he sought all manner of illustrative material from common life, and with simplicity
and charm he spoke words not easy to forget.

In this landmark work, a leading theologian presents one of the most significant studies on the doctrine

Old Testament, accounts of the Ascension from the New Testament, and church teachings on the
doctrine through the ages. Marked by clarity and penetrating scholarship, this is a valuable resource for
pastors and all students of the Bible.

The seven post-resurrection discourses of Christ stand out like majestic mountains on a desert horizon.
They were spoken to Mary Magdalene, to Cleopas and Simon, to the disciples, to Thomas, to the church,
to Simon Peter, and to all Christians. These last words of Christ spoken during post-resurrection
appearances are the basis of this helpful sermon resource, a fresh collection of messages. Ironically,
Christ’s post-resurrection discourses have been largely overlooked, even though they contain some of His
greatest utterances.

Mr. Baughman has done an excellent piece of work. One of his purposes is to relate Peters’ The

to the kingdom is also good as he traces through the Old Testament to the New Testament. The artwork
is fantastic, and the content extremely helpful. I highly recommend this material. – Dr Louis Barbieri,

Do you ever struggle with the insecure feeling of not knowing for sure if you will go to heaven? Is there
any way to overcome that doubt? With pastoral love and concern, John MacArthur answers the second
question with an authoritative yes! He carefully examines the classical biblical texts affirming the forever
quality of salvation, but does not ignore the troubling passages that seem to indicate otherwise. From
there he shows how those truths apply to you by presenting eleven biblical tests to help you determine
whether you’ve experienced salvation once and for all. He concludes by showing how you can match up
your feelings with your faith, and by taking an encouraging look at victory in the Spirit and the promise of
God to help you persevere.

When the author took aim at cheap grace, he fired a shot that rang throughout the Christian world. His
critics were quick to respond. He was accused of contradicting the New Testament message of salvation
by grace through faith, of preaching perfectionism and burdening Christians with a works salvation. In
this book, he answers these charges by taking a passionate look at the most critical issue of our day: the
Lordship of Christ. If the status of your faith before God is important to you, you cannot ignore the
questions this book addresses.

141 pages
Written by 4 undergraduates while office-holders in the Oxford Inter-Collegiate Christian Union, this
book expounds their assurance that for spiritual renewal contemporary Christianity needs, above all, faith
in the historic gospel. In Luther’s day that gospel meant “good news, a shout, something that makes one
sing, talk or rejoice.” Too often that note has been lost in the modern world; in our preoccupation with
man and his needs we have lost sight of God as the almighty Saviour of sinners. The authors stress those
truths necessary to the recovery of biblical faith, answer objections, and enlarge upon practical
considerations in the area of Christian life and worship.

Claims and counter-claims relating to prophecy, healing and tongue-speaking abound in the church. What
does the apostle Paul say about the charismata? What are the marks of an apostle? In the swirling tides of
confusion, the Bible alone is the bedrock of our understanding and practice. It is here the author begins,
with a thorough examination of what the Scriptures teach on these key issues, before moving on to
examine the historical background and numerous charismatic movements of the past. From Montanism
to Edward Irving and the beginning of modern Pentecostalism, the author gives a perspective that helps
the reader understand more clearly the roots of today’s charismatic movement.

This provocative work outlines what the Word of God teaches about holiness. It discusses the biblical
words for “holiness” and carefully examines the major scriptural passages that bear on the separation
debate. Chapter topics include personal separation, ecclesiastical separation, and separation from a
Christian brother. A concluding chapter on the spirit of the separatist specifically addresses those who
already embrace the concept of separation. God’s holiness is the basis of separation; His holiness also
governs how Christians must practice it.

A collection of 11 sermons and treatises from the available writings of Jonathan Edwards. The Scripture
states that sinners need to be saved from two things: sin and “the wrath to come.” Modern evangelism
seems to believe that the sinner’s problem is that he is not loved enough: therefore, he is told that God
loves him. But it is not a lack of love he needs to flee from. He needs to “flee from the wrath to come.”

Bahnsen, Greg L.
Van Til’s Apologetic: Readings & Analysis
0-87552-098-7
New Jersey: P & R
239 BAH, 1998
764 pages
In this substantial volume, Bahnsen has gathered the primary passages on apologetics from the vast body
of works by Van Til, arranged them topically, and added incisive commentary and analysis. The result is a
carefully organized digest of all that Van Til taught about apologetics – in effect, an anthology of his most
fertile passages, with running exposition by Bahnsen. Including many out of print works of Van Til in this
collection, Bahnsen has done the church a monumental service by helping to preserve the legacy of Van
Til.

Here Frame unveils some of the “variety and richness of a biblical apologetic.” Defining apologetics as
“the discipline that teaches Christians how to give a reason for their hope,” he distinguishes three main
kinds of apologetic: Proof, Defense and Offense. Frame clarifies the relationships of reason, proofs and
evidences to faith, biblical authority, and the lordship of Christ. He offers a fresh look at probability
arguments and gives special attention to the problem of evil. Particularly helpful are his extensive use of
Scripture and his presentation of specific lines of argument. A model dialogue in the concluding chapter
shows how the various lines of argument work in a conversation with a nonbeliever.

The author presents clear, convincing thoughts on the reliability of the Bible. His straightforward,
uncompromising approach takes you right into the Bible to look at what this amazing Book says about
itself. He reveals fantastic scientific truths spoken by the Bible’s writers long before they were discovered
by modern scientists. He points to several fulfilled prophesies. He also includes a brief study of Psalm 19,
detailing what God’s law is and what it can do for those who submit to it. Most important, however, he
presents the Bible as a living, dynamic Book with the power to change lives- including yours. You can
trust the Bible, and he will show you why.

We all become like the objects we worship. How important then that Christians should be focused on the
“Great God of Wonders” revealed in Scripture. “To think about God aright is the most exciting
occupation possible for any created being.” In every aspect of the Christian life dealt with in these articles.
Roberts’ emphasis is always on “the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus.”
These writings, originally published in the Banner of Truth magazine, provide thought-provoking,
spiritually invigorating, practical and warmly biblical reading.

117 pages
Was our Lord’s service social or redemptive? Does Christ not command social service to all men? Should
we insist on justice because God is just, or deny our rights because God is longsuffering? How will the
believer know which is the proper course if social action at a particular time? Should wealthy persons
disperse their possessions? Dr. Ryrie addresses these and other pertinent questions in his timely book on
the Christian’s social responsibility. Dr Ryrie gives insight into how we can be both salt and light in
today’s world, talks about our duties and responsibilities to all men as well as our civic responsibilities.
Understanding this book is a must for those who desire to determine the extent of their involvement in
today’s world. It is informative and challenging.

A three-in-one volume.
In Biblical Ethics, Chambers says that God’s ultimate purpose in Christ’s atonement is to readjust
humanity to Himself. This calls for a moral response on our part, involving thought, feeling, and will that
flesh out the ethical principles of the Christian faith.
Moral Foundations takes us deep below the surface of everyday life where the foundations for enduring
sainthood are laid. Chambers’ instruction in righteousness illumines the dim regions of the soul in the
blazing light of holy Scripture.
In Philosophy of Sin, Chambers helps us to understand what is wrong with humanity and how the basic
wrong can be put right through Christ’s atonement, which makes possible human repentance and
appropriation of faith.

Here is a practical booklet for anyone who wants to become a more godly person. In it Jay Adams shows

possible. Beginning with Paul’s instruction in 1 Timothy 4:7, “You must discipline yourself for the
purpose of godliness,” Adams explains how godly living cam become second nature for the person who
truly desires to be Christlike.

In addition to being a warm devotional commentary and a compelling biography of the Old Testament
saint who stood for God in Babylon, the Book of Daniel offers balanced interpretation of difficult
millennial passages. In helping to piece together the prophetic puzzle, Pastor Dobson describes the
various interpretations of the end times and the coming of the millennial reign of Christ. Dobson also
shows that the often neglected prophetic passages in Daniel have significance now, as well as for
understanding the future. This book combines devotional commentary with personal prayers, applications
to daily life, and entertaining humor. It is a companion volume to Abraham: The Lord Will Provide.

A Heart For God: If He Can Be Known,
How Can We Discover Him?
0-89109-176-9
Colorado: NavPress
248.4 FER, 1985
176 pages
Deep inside every believer is a powerful desire to be close to God. To know Him and love Him.
Wholeheartedly. And sometimes, all it takes is a small spark to turn this desire into a fully engulfed
passion for God Himself. This book offers just such a spark. The author is a self-confessed seeker who
dares us to face our “true spiritual failure, how superficially we have thought about our relationship with
God.” Yet this is exactly where a heart for God begins, he says. The author’s command of Scripture and
his devotional style of writing compel us to pursue a greater knowledge, a deeper love. And a true heart
for God.

Scrambling for acceptability in the world, the church is embellishing the gospel with anything and
everything but the truth. Instead of preaching the Word, “the church is floundering in a sump of
worldliness and self-indulgence,” says the author. With its growing infatuation with psychology, show
business techniques, and extreme mysticism, the church is tacitly acquiescing to the notion that Christ
alone simply is not sufficient to meet people’s real needs. In this landmark book, MacArthur calls for a
new generation of Christians with the courage to confront a disturbing mindset that is taking the church
by storm.

254 pages
The signs of compromise are all around us. Numbers have become more important than the message.
Churches are offering up “Show-Time” religion instead of the “Old-Time” religion. Pastors have turned
to the marketing industry to help them draw people in rather than relying on the sovereign power of God.
Until all that changes – until we return to our calling to go into all the world to preach the Gospel without
shame – the church is in danger of losing its impact on society. And that would be our generation’s
greatest loss.

But what is depression? We could argue that many people are depressed because their present has lost its
meaning and purpose, and their future holds no hope. Yet the Christian – despite having a living
relationship with God in Jesus Christ, and the glorious anticipation of heaven – is not immune from
depression! The lives of some of God’s greatest servants clearly demonstrate that! This practical guide is
the result of the author’s 20 years experience as a local church pastor. Without medical jargon, it deals
sensitively with the difficult area of depression; its causes and treatments, and offers a step by step guide
to coping.

Good News of the Gospel and doesn’t end until you’ve shared your life so completely with another
person that he is fully committed to similar spiritual service. Discipleship is real sacrifice, but the reward is
great – the satisfaction of knowing you have followed obediently in the footsteps of the Disciple-maker
Himself, Jesus Christ.

The concept of dying well has been very real to Ed Hartman since August 1995. Hartman discovered a
treatise by Puritan author William Perkins on the “Right Manner of Dying Well.” The discovery was no
accident, as it was a matter of minutes later that Ed discovered that his wife, the mother of their 4
children, was not all well. She was diagnosed with a brain tumor, which after 6 months of much prayer,
and great headache, proved to be terminal. With this traumatic experience behind him, Hartman deals
with the topic of preparing your life, and the life of those you love, for death in a practical and thoroughly
Christ-centred manner.

You have everything you need to make your home a haven of grace. God’s presence brings peace to your
home and empowers you to reflect His goodness. Beyond Himself, God has given you the church so that
your home can be all it should be. In Heaven’s eyes, the church is part of your family – so whether you’re
married or widowed, a parent or single, you have an extended family. You have spiritual grandparents
who can share with you what they have learnt about living in a relationship with God, and whose words
and example will show you how to raise the next generation of faith. This book brims with practical
application, it is not a how-to book. It is more about who God is than what we do; more about His grace
than our game plans. It is about God working in and through you to make your home a sanctuary of His
design.

Why do some families grow closer, when others fall apart? As a husband, father of four, and family

two crucial areas of family life: communication and conflict resolution. Alerting us to the pitfalls of faulty
communication, Mack examines why families fight and explains the key to turning family discord into
harmony. Firsthand success stories and highly practical application questions give hope and clear
direction to all who wish to build stronger families God’s way.

192 pages
Do you want your family to be successful in the ways that count? To have a home where your children
learn to love God and love others, and turn that love into a living testimony for Christ? As much as you
want this, God wants it even more. So much so that He gave parents a blueprint for building a spiritually
successful family: the Ten Commandments. This book not only shows you how to consistently,
creatively, convincingly, and compellingly teach these 10 “liberating laws of life,” but lays out why it is so
important to help write them on your children’s hearts.

The eternal truths of the Bible never changes – God does not change – but cultural standards and
expectations change with each generation. One of the benefits of reading books by saints from the past is
that they surprise us by bringing a whole different set of cultural expectations and standards to their
exposition of the unchanging truths of Scripture. We are thankful that we have such a trove of works by
fellow believers from long ago, but sometimes we get bogged down in the strange manner and expression
of old books. Our desire is to publish books like this in a format that is easily accessible and will
maximize the benefits of wisdom from men who knew and walked with God hundreds of years ago.

Most churches want to avoid friction, but as long as we are human, we’re going to have it in the church.
Problems that cause divisions today aren’t really different from those that upset New Testament

Testament and shows us how we, in the spirit of Christian love, may face problems of friction in the

Readers will appreciate the detailed scholarly treatment of the prophetic literature the author provides.
But equally important, the author demonstrates that what the prophets said about God, evil, repentance,
history, social justice and eschatology has a ring of immediacy for us. Moreover, the study is helpful in
treating the lives of the prophets as models of spirituality in prayer, suffering and preaching.

The Preacher’s Portrait: Some New
Testament Word Studies
0-8028-1191-4
Grand Rapids: WM.B Eerdmans
251 STO, 1979
124 pages
This book is a fresh and practical study of the terms employed in the New Testament to describe the
minister and his task. “We need,” states Dr. Stott, “to gain in the Church today a clearer view of God’s
revealed ideal for the preacher, what he is and how he is to do his work. So I shall be considering his
message and his authority, the character of the proclamation he is called to make, the vital necessity of his
own experience of the Gospel, the nature of his motive, the source of his power, and the moral qualities
which should characterize him, notably humility, gentleness and love. This, I suggest, is the preacher’s
portrait, a portrait painted by the hand of God Himself on the broad canvas of the New Testament.”

The Lamb of God: Previously unpublished

138 pages
From the beginnings of Old Testament history to the banks of the Jordan River where John the Baptist
announced Christ’s presence, the imagery and symbolism of the unblemished sacrificial lamb plays a
prominent role in the biblical record. Nowhere, however, is the image of the lamb more dominant than in
the book of Revelation which presents the ultimate victory of the Lamb over sin, death and Satan. Now
for the first time in print, Dr Clarence Macartney’s series of sermons from the book of Revelation
captures both the theological import and the personal drama of Jesus, the Lamb of God “slain since the
foundations of the world.”

I think that a preacher should read the Bible faithfully, pray much, and seek that the leadership of the
Lord in the building of a sermon. But sometimes we all feel the need of inspiration – a little mentail
prodding – or the need for a certain type of sermon. In this book, I am giving a few suggestions. I want
you to take them and use them as you see fit. Adapt them to your situation. You are not stealing – you are
not guilty of plagiarism – I am making you a gift of these simple Bible messages. My ideas, illustrations

143 pages
What is the most beautiful thing in the world? Whenever and wherever in the world a man declares to his
fellow men the gospel of God’s salvation, God still says, “How beautiful!”… for ultimately this is the only
message that matters to God, since it is the restoration of God’s beauty to the ugliness of man’s world. As
the author looks again at Scripture to rediscover what the evangelistic message for a needy society really
is, and what methods should be employed to take this message to the world, he reminds us of the exciting
truth that “God can give, not only a new age of great preachers, but a new age of great power.”

can be equipped to meet it. New materials in this book includes chapters on the pastor and his use of
time, his health and appearance, and ways he can “reach beyond the pulpit” to expand his ministry

How to Help People Change
0-310-51181-X
253.5 ADA, 1986
203 pages
Change is the essential goal of the counseling process and “substantial change requires the alteration of
the heart.” How can a Christian counselor facilitate such change? The answer, of course, may be found in
Scripture, specifically in 2 Timothy 3:14-17. This book answers two questions: “How does a counselor
help people change?” and “How does Scripture provide the source of a counselor’s method?” This book
has much to say about the ongoing discussion of the relationship between theology and psychology in the
enterprise of Christian counseling.

“This helpful book intricately intertwines history, philosophy, and theology in a powerful critique of
psychiatry… it is the book you have wanted to give to Christians who have become tangled in the tenets
and tentacles of psychiatric theory and practice. If you are a serious student, you cannot do without it.” –

These writers are convinced of the need for developing new believers through a one-to-one relationship

some of the leading figures in the Christian world on the subject.

The subject of Christian giving is a glad one. Giving to Jesus Christ, giving to get out the blessed Gospel,
giving carnal things to those who have blessed us with spiritual things, is one of the greatest privileges and
joys of a Christian. Here is Bible help on tithing, freewill offerings, on so-called storehouse tithing. Here
are wonderfully sweet Bible promises. Here is help on where to give and how much to give.
1. God wants the heart first
2. The Old Testament teaches Christians
ought to tithe
3. The New Testament teaches tithing also
4. Freewill offerings to God from a loving
heart
5. Giving your way to prosperity
6. “Storehouse” idea in tithing ceremonial
law, for Jews only
7. God’s plan for New Testament Christians
requires no storehouse
8. Storehouse tradition harms Christians,
churches, God’s cause
9. The Lordship of Christ dishonored by
wrong giving
10. Giving and the local church

Christian education, according to Richards, is the teaching and learning of Christian faith as culture – the
reshaping of personalities into the image of Christ. The thesis of this book is that youth ministry must be
viewed as youth and adults involved together in Scripture, in a body-of Christ relationship, and in life.
Richards shows what is involved in each of these elements as well as how to organize and program a
ministry that, through such involvement, will lead young people to Christian maturity.

For 19n centuries, the church has been telling the world to believe in the gospel. Yet today, in our 20 th
century, the world is calling the church to account for its authority and its right to be heard. The world is
demanding a scrutiny of the church’s leaders, their values and standards, their lifestyles, their financial
policies. Wiersbe critically examines historical and theological truths to find out what happened to the
church, why it happened, and what we can do about it. He draws a parallel to the task ahead with that of
Nehemiah in the Old Testament. The book assesses the steps necessary to remove the rubbish,
rediscover the foundations, rebuild the walls, restore the gates, and renew the church.

Modern evangelicals have gained money, power, and influence, and it has been like giving whiskey to a
two-year-old. The need of the hour is theological, not political. The arena is the pulpit and the table, not
the legislative chamber. Before we are equipped to proclaim His lordship to the inhabitants of all the
earth, we must live as though we believed it in the Church.
Mother Kirk presents a very practical and pastoral guide to many of the countless issues that arise in
conservative Christian churches. The essays span subjects ranging from the nature of legalism and church
authority to worship music, debt, youth ministry, and pastoral character.

Rather than another book on techniques, methodology, and psychological insights into biblical leadership,
the author’s concern is the essential character qualities that equip those who lead in the church, whether
from pulpit or pew. In his foreword to the book, Wallis endorses this concern: “Leadership tragedies are
almost entirely caused by character breakdown rather than gift deficiency.” The author believes that the
state of leadership in the church is a true spiritual barometer. If there us to be lasting church growth,
there must be equivalent leadership growth as well.

For better or for worse? Whichever term describes your marriage, there are ways to make it (even) better.
That’s because God has designed marriage to be a relationship of deep unity and strength. Despite the
challenges that couples face today, marital harmony need not be considered an impossible ideal. In this
book, the author gathered a wealth of biblical insight and practical information on marital roles,
communication, finances, sex, child rearing, and family worship. Both as a counseling aid and as a guide
for husbands and wives to study together, this book offers true hope and help where couples need it
most.

845 pages
The worldwide extension of the Christian church is a direct result of people who have played key roles in
the missionary enterprise. The immense contributions of figures like David Livingstone, Billy Graham,
and Mother Teresa are widely known; the achievements of many others, though equally important, are
less well noted. This major reference work is the first to fully document the global history of Christian
missions by means of biographical articles on the most outstanding missionaries from the past 2000 years.
Written by 350 experts from 45 countries, the Biographical Dictionary of Christian Missions contains more
than 2400 original, signed biographies portraying missionaries from the patristic age to the present,
representing Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican , Protestant, Pentecostal, independent, and indigenous
churches. Arranged in a convenient A-Z format, the articles provide significant biological information for
all missionaries covered, including date and location of birth, places of service, and discussion of their
writings, public achievements, and contributions to contemporary mission issues.
This book also features cross-references throughout, a bibliography accompanying each entry, an
elaborate appendix listing biographies according to particular categories of interest, and a comprehensive
index - all of which make this volume invaluable as a research tool. All told, the Biographical Dictionary of
Christian Missions not only provides an authoritative record of significant men and women in the church
but also gives a sweeping historical account of the worldwide missionary movement.

“Where can I find really helpful material on God’s providence?” “Did John Owen or Thomas Goodwin
ever write about church discipline?” “What did the Puritans say about marriage and family life?” “Are
there any modern writers who continue the great Puritan tradition of teaching Christian doctrine in a
pastoral and practical way?” How often have you asked, or been asked, questions like that, but not known
where to find answers? Now the long-felt need for a well-planned survey of the works of the Puritans and
their successors has been met. In A Puritan Index, Dr Robert P Martin has created a practical tool which
will serve as a manual to Puritan literature recently reprinted. This is a unique guide to themes and texts

New Neutralism II

270 ASH, 1992
532 pages
Since its official birth in 1948 the religious philosophy of new evangelicalism has swept like wildfire across
the churches, Christian colleges, missions and youth movements of the world. It is the author’s
contention that new evangelicalism has proven to be an enemy of sound doctrine, reverent worship and
holy living which marked Biblical Christianity fifty years ago. He names men and movements identified
with this philosophy. New Neutralism II is a sequel to a 1975 book by the author’s father, William E.
Ashbrook, titled Evangelicalism: the New Neutralism.

The charismatic movement has caused quite a stir in the religious world. In this penetrating historical and

For over one hundred years, this book has been highly regarded and widely received. A. B. Bruce’s work
continues to speak powerfully and effectively to the contemporary Christian generation. The methods
that Jesus used to prepare His disciples are an inspiring model for training and equipping leaders and lay
people for service. Dr. Bruce emphasizes that church is not a place where people go but something that
people are, and understanding and utilizing one’s gifts and talents enrich both the body and the believer.

Guide to Good Reading and Great
Preaching
0-8010-9699-5
Grand Rapids: Baker
921 WIE, 1976
289 pages
Every minister should be a reader – in his armchair as well as in his study. But what should he read? One
should read not only what the giants have written, but what has been written about them, and the author
points the reader to the best books in both categories, spicing the bibliographical with the biographical.
Additional chapters guide the minister to the outstanding works on the ministry in general and on
preaching in particular. This is the kind of book the reader will not be able to put down, and after he
finishes it, he will have a hard time putting down the books to which the author has lured him.

No source, other than the Bible itself, provides more relevant information on the first century than the
works of Flavius Josephus. Now this first-century historian's writings take on a renewed significance and

 A newly edited text that updates the 18th century language of the Whiston translation, using
modern vocabulary and spellings in all five complete and unabridged works
 A new introduction and commentaries on the text by award winning author and historian Dr.
Paul L. Maier
 Over forty photos of ancient sites and artifacts mentioned by Josephus as well as numerous
charts, tables, and maps
 Cross reference numbers throughout to the Greek text of Josephus in the Loeb Classical Library
