    • Earths Earliest Ages

      $16.95

      Defender Publishing

      As far back as the beginning of time and within every major culture of the ancient world, the astonishingly consistent story is told of gods who descended from heaven and materialized in bodies of flesh. From Rome to Greece and before that, to Egypt, Persia, Assyria, Babylonia, and Sumer the earliest records of civilization tell of the era when powerful beings known to the Hebrews as Watchers and in the book of Genesis as the b’nai ha Elohim (‘sons of God’) mingled themselves with humans, giving birth to part-celestial, part-terrestrial hybrids known as ‘Nephilim.’ When English theologian George Hawkins Pember, in his 1876 masterpiece, Earth’s Earliest Ages, analyzed the prophecy of Jesus Christ in Matthew 24 that says the end times would be a repeat of ‘the days of Noah,’ he concluded the final and most fearful sign heralding the Lord’s Second Coming would be the return of the ‘Nephilim, the appearance upon earth of beings from the Principality of the Air, and their unlawful intercourse with the human race.’ Jesus Himself, in answering His disciples concerning the signs of His coming and of the end of the world, verified it would be ‘as the days of [Noah] were’ (Matthew 24:37). The implication is, just as it was before the Flood when the spirits of Nephilim were powerful upon earth (Genesis 6:4), mankind would experience an end-times renaissance of the influence of these entities.

    • Researchers Library Of Ancient Texts Volume 3

      $49.91

      The Septuagint (or “LXX”, or “Greek Old Testament”) is a translation of the Hebrew Old Testament and certain Apocrypha, which was sponsored according to tradition in the late 3rd century BC by Ptolemy II Philadelphus, the king of Ptolemaic Egypt (283 BC to 246 BC). The Greek translation was originally created for use by the Alexandrian Jews who were fluent in Koine Greek, but not in Hebrew. Thus the Septuagint is sometimes called the “Apostle’s Bible” and the one that Jesus and his disciples would have had access to. It is quoted in the New Testament by writers such as the Apostle Paul, and remained the Scripture of use by the Apostolic Fathers. The translation of the Septuagint into English by Sir Lancelot C. L. Brenton was first published in 1851 and was based primarily upon the Codex Vaticanus, one of the oldest extant manuscripts of the Greek Bible. It remains the standard of use by many scholars and students of Scripture and history. Contained in this volume (The Researchers Library of Ancient Texts Volume III): The English Translation of the Greek Septuagint Bible, Including the Apocrypha.

    • Delighting In The Law Of The Lord

      $30.00

      Our culture has a few catch phrases: Be who you want to be; Do what makes you happy. We are told to do our own thing and follow our own rules, which often makes the Bible appear to be oppressively restrictive and hopelessly outdated, even to Christians! Responding to the misdirection of our society and misperceptions the church has of God’s law, Professor Jerram Barrs helps readers recognize the beauty in and purpose of God’s rules for living healthy, productive, and fulfilling lives. From the Old Testament to the New, Barrs demonstrates how God’s commands to his people were intended to protect them from sin and direct them in godliness. Rejecting the idea that we can earn God’s favor through good works, Barrs nevertheless highlights how God’s commands should spur us to obedience and ultimately remind us of grace.

      God’s grace demonstrated in the biblical narrative through the lens of covenant.

This extraordinary book also throws light upon the Christian use of the Old Testament categories. This second, revised edition brings the subject right up to date.

    • Rolling Out The Plan Of Salvation (Student/Study Guide)

      $22.00

      Rolling out the Plan of Salvation: A Study in Leviticus is the only in-depth individual or small group study guide available on Leviticus.

      The participant learns to understand not only the different sacrifices but also the order in which each had to be presented and why the order was crucial.

      If the leader chooses to use the suggested guide in the back of the book, the participants will get a sensory challenge to better understand “an aroma pleasing to the Lord.”

      Participants have five short daily lessons to complete each week. Answers to the questions are located in the back of the book to ensure the teachable moment is not missed during the time of study.

      Leviticus teaches God’s people how to become a holy nation of priests who can come before a holy God without fear. Maybe the most exciting outcome is the increased understanding of the many passages in both the Old and New Testaments that mention the various offerings. Suddenly, those passages have added meaning and become more endeared to the reader.

    • Hebrews : It’s Not How You Start – It’s How You Finish – A Study Guide To T

      $30.95

      God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us in His Son . . . (Hebrews 1:1-2) “but He, having offered one sacrifice for sins for all time, SAT DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF GOD . . . ” (Hebrews 10:12)

      In Hebrews: It’s Not How You Start-It’s How You Finish, Dr. Kathy Stewart offers a guide to the most encouraging epistle in the New Testament. Among other things the reader will explore: Who was Melchizedek, and what is his significance to the doctrine of Hebrews? Who were the Ebionites? Could they have been the original recipients of the epistle? What is one possible interpretation of the controversial warning given in Hebrews 6:4-8? What is the significance of Jesus now sitting at the right hand of God? Perhaps most importantly-how do the doctrinal truths of the book apply to the believer’s struggles with everyday trials? It is hoped that by the conclusion of the book, the reader will not only have grown in their faith but will have a determined resolve to persevere until the end. Because Jesus Christ is better than any created being, that He now serves as our Great High Priest in heaven, and that He has offered Himself as the one final sacrifice for sin, faithful Christians can make it!

    • Jeremiah Project Part 1

      $27.95

      Turn off all the noise, and get yourself comfortable. Jeremiah invites you in. The Jeremiah Project Part 1-The Scrapbook has the bones of a study guide but as Scripture is searched and questions are answered the study takes on the form of a novelette. The study begins with Jeremiah’s official appointment. Jeremiah will represent the Lord in a monumental court case that administers justice. This case still affects us today. The Lord had a legal and binding relationship with Israel. Their relationship is compared to marriage in this study of God’s Word. When God acquired Israel as a vessel-bride, Israel acquired God’s promises, which were outlined in a living and breathing contract. The once gracious contract which united the two parties in holy union has by legal recourse become a beast which, in study, serves to bind the pair in its merciless grip. The Jeremiah Project Part 1-The Scrapbook is a user-friendly study that you cannot afford to miss. It’s like finding a few more pieces to that big puzzle of life. Some of us have a good start at putting it all together, but the picture of life becomes a little clearer and makes more sense after spending some time with Jeremiah. You will find insightful information as he, by appointment from God, delivers wisdom, comfort, and strength that will get many through the upheaval in our world.

    • From Creation To The Cross

      $29.99

      Most Christians don’t quite know what to do with the first half of the Bible. Some are fascinated by the historical sweep of the Old Testament. Others are blessed by its poetry. Still others focus on its prophecies. But what are the heart and soul of the Old Testament? In From Creation to the Cross, Al Baylis is a guide who shares with us his love for, and profound understanding of, the Old Testament. He walks us through the Old Testament, pointing out along the way perspectives and insights that leave us with a new, personal understanding of these thirty-nine books — and more importantly, of the God of the Old Testament, who lovingly prepared the way before sending his Son. As Bruce Wilkinson puts it in the Foreword, ‘I could almost picture (Baylis) as a seasoned rabbi surrounded by a huddle of eager listeners. He doesn’t simply teach the Old Testament; it’s as if he personally reminisces through it.’ From Creation to the Cross is one of those rare books that speaks to a wide range of readers, from high school students to homemakers to college professors. This revised and expanded edition of On the Way to Jesus makes this unique and highly readable approach to the first half of the Bible available once again. It is ideally suited for use in Bible study groups.

    • Abraham Our Father

      $81.66

      “Father Abraham had many sons . . .” So goes the chorus that the Shona people learned from European missionaries as part of the broader experience of colonization that they share with other African peoples. Urged to abandon their ancestors and embrace Christianity, the Shona instead engaged in a complex and ambiguous negotiation of ancestral myths, culture, and power.

      Israel Kamudzandu explores this legacy, showing how the Shona found in the figure of Abraham himself a potent resource for cultural resistance, and makes intriguing comparisons with the ways the apostle Paul used the same figure in his interaction with the ancestry of Aeneas in imperial myths of the destiny of the Roman people. The result is a groundbreaking study that combines the best tradition-historical insights with postcolonial-critical acumen. Kamudzandu offers at last a model of multi-cultural Christianity forged in the experience of postcolonial Zimbabwe.

    • Kingdom Of Power

      $24.99

      Simple. Practical. Powerful. That’s the gospel of the kingdom! Wherever God’s kingdom rules on earth, it is visibly demonstrated.

      The kingdom of God is His will exercised on earth as it is in heaven. Each time Jesus announced the good news of the kingdom, sin, sickness, demons, poverty, and death could not remain. Likewise, Jesus did not authorize the church to preach a gospel of mere words. He empowered us to proclaim the good news with supernatural evidence of miracles, healings, and deliverances. We are carriers of the kingdom, which is revealed in and through us by the Holy Spirit.

      The kingdom is a reality today-not just in the future-and it may be applied to each circumstance we encounter in life. Through the studies in The Kingdom of Power (Spirit-Led Bible Study), you will learn how to…

      *Enter the kingdom of God
      *Demonstrate God’s existence through tangible evidence
      *Manifest healings and deliverances
      *Expand the kingdom in your God-given “territory”
      *Drive out the kingdom of darkness
      *Overcome the “impossible”
      *Rule on earth as God’s king and priest

      Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:21). The only thing you need to do is to demonstrate it here and now!

      This book is designed as a stand-alone Bible study. It may be completed independently by individual students or be used in a group setting, such as a Bible study, a Sunday school class, a course on the foundations of the Christian faith, or a prayer group.

    • To All Nations From All Nations

      $60.99

      Sharing the Good News might be understood as the prime directive of the Church from its earliest times, but the Church soon discovered unforeseen obstacles and its own set of temptations, including its lust for power and domination. Although the gospel might be joyfully offered, it was not always received in the same spirit. And the Church was not always gracious with dissent and criticism. Even so, the Church continues to reach out to the least, the last, and the lost-attempting to bring them into the family of God. But for mission to be effective today, it must take advantage of indigenous resources and recognize its limitations as well as its gifts.

      This book broadly introduces prominent missionary practices and major historical figures using three perspectives. First, it takes into account the missionary activity proceeding from the margins rather than only discussing the center of theological and ecclesial activity. Second, it narrates the cross-cultural, cross-confessional, and cross-religious dynamics that characterize Christian missionary activity. And third, it emphasizes that much missionary activity is generated by national rather than international missionaries. The text concludes with a chapter on the postmodern and postcolonial world.

    • Scripture And Tradition

      $32.94

      In some of the church’s history, Scripture has been pitted against tradition and vice versa. Prominent New Testament scholar Edith Humphrey, who understands the issue from both Protestant and Catholic/Orthodox perspectives, revisits this perennial point of tension. She demonstrates that the Bible itself reveals the importance of tradition, exploring how the Gospels, Acts, and the Epistles show Jesus and the apostles claiming the authority of tradition as God’s Word, both written and spoken. Arguing that Scripture and tradition are not in opposition but are necessarily and inextricably intertwined, Humphrey defends tradition as God’s gift to the church. She also works to dismantle rigid views of sola scriptura while holding a high view of Scripture’s authority.

      Who would have thought that the great teacher of the Word, Paul, started out as a persecutor of Christians?

      Arguably the most influential Christian missionary of the early times, Paul did not begin preaching the Word of God until after his life-changing experience at the road to Damascus, where Jesus appeared to him in great light, striking him blind.

      In Paul the Teacher, Vincent Etwaroo shows how the great light that struck Paul blind was also the light that opened his eyes to God’s truth, how he emerged from the incident a new man with a new sight and new purpose, and how the Holy Spirit’s constant guidance in his missionary journeys led him to transform the lives of many.

It reveals the mystery around the End Time delusion, how to avoid it and the falling away mentioned in Thessalonians. The author explains how the Great Pyramids, Stonehenge, and other wonders of the world are tied to the Bible and why Jesus is the only way to heaven. You will be shocked, to find out who the false Christ’s are and why they are currently hiding. This work points out that there are some minor misconceptions of God’s word that will ultimately help with the Delusion and how many well known ministers today are already falling for it as well. Their failing doctrines say that you may be able to get to heaven without Jesus and this shows that they will embrace the antichrist. Jesus told us to pray that we be found worthy to escape these things and the author explains what you must do in order to do just that. God clearly told this author to warn his people so read on if you dare, be forewarned, be armed with the truth and escape these things.

    • Sinning Like A Christian

      $16.99

      The seven deadly sins are a well-known topic, but, surprisingly, not much has been written about them in recent years from a serious theological viewpoint. Will Willimon’s engaging book, which takes an unflinching look at the meaning and substance of sin, will be of great interest to Christians. Study questions by the author are included. The “felt need” is an increasing dissatisfaction with shallow, feel-good Christianity-which does not attempt to grapple with our propensity, visible around us and in our own lives, to do evil. This edition includes a new introduction by the author.

    • What Lies Ahead

      $21.23

      How Much Do You Know about the End Times?

      God has a glorious future in store for believers in Jesus Christ. How much do you really know about it? The Bible has a great deal to say concerning the end times.

      Have you ever wondered: What is the Rapture, and when will it occur? Where does the nation of Israel fit in God s Kingdom program? What role will the Antichrist play in the end times, and when will he be revealed? What are the Judgment Seat of Christ and the Great White Throne Judgment? What is the Battle of Armageddon? Who are the Beast and the False Prophet? What is the Second Coming?

      These questions and many more are answered in this comprehensive overview of the end times from a biblical perspective. The prophecies of Scripture regarding the end times are not meant to confuse or intimidate Christians. Instead, they provide hope for today and give us a glimpse of What Lies Ahead.

    • Sin Of Forgiveness

      $14.95

      Today’s “forgiveness” does just the opposite of what forgiveness is meant to accomplish – put another way, secular forgiveness causes more harm than good. The one forgiving is never made whole again, while the sinner is left in the same wretched condition. But true Christian forgiveness brings a blessing to all. We are to forgive, but it must be according to the example and teachings of Christ. Anything less is a sin.

    • Constructing Jesus : Memory Imagination And History

      $68.23

      What did Jesus think of himself? How did he face death? What were his expectations of the future? In this volume, now in paperback, internationally renowned Jesus scholar Dale Allison Jr. addresses such perennially fascinating questions about Jesus. The acclaimed hardcover edition received the “Best Book Relating to the New Testament 2011” award from the Biblical Archaeology Society.

      Representing the fruit of several decades of research, this major work questions standard approaches to Jesus studies and rethinks our knowledge of the historical Jesus in light of recent progress in the scientific study of memory. Allison’s groundbreaking alternative strategy calls for applying what we know about the function of human memory to our reading of the Gospels in order to “construct Jesus” more soundly.

      Additional Info
      Answers to the usual introductory questions do not yield sufficient harvest to enable an intelligent reading of Acts. The approach of Reading Acts is to ask how ancient Mediterranean auditors would have heard Acts when it was read in their presence. To be successful Talbert divides this approach into two parts–how Acts would have been heard in its precanonical context and in its canonical context.

    • Boaz Prayer : Ruth Romance Redemption And Restoration

      $15.95

      Have you ever discovered priceless gems in the most strangest of places? The Boaz Prayer is one of those priceless gems you will find in the most strangest of places- hidden in the deep, rugged, dark corners of a place called nowhere. Like a rose trampled on the ground, like an oasis in the middle of a parched desert, the Boaz Prayer found in the book of Ruth adds elegance, grace and romance to an otherwise depressing milieu. This is so especially when you realize that Ruth lived during the days when the judges governed and utter hopelessness filled the land. What an array of hope the Boaz Prayer affords to Ruth in particular and to many generations later. In spite of the bleak conditions of our times we need to be reminded that God still answers Boaz-like prayers. For those who will pray daring prayers, God can still turn our tragedies into triumphs, our tests into testimonies, our defeats into destiny and our mess into a message of Romance, Redemption and Restoration.

    • Paul And Union With Christ

      $34.99

      Paul and Union with Christ fills the gap for biblical scholars, theologians, and pastors pondering and debating the meaning of union with Christ. Following a selective survey of the scholarly work on union with Christ through the twentieth century to the present day, Greek scholar Constantine Campbell carefully examines every occurrence of the phrases ‘in Christ’, ‘with Christ’, ‘through Christ’, ‘into Christ,’ and other related expressions, exegeting each passage in context and taking into account the unique lexical contribution of each Greek preposition. Campbell then builds a holistic portrayal of Paul’s thinking and engages contemporary theological discussions about union with Christ by employing his evidence-based understanding of the theme. This volume combines high-level scholarship and a concern for practical application of a topic currently debated in the academy and the church. More than a monograph, this book is a helpful reference tool for students, scholars, and pastors to consult its treatment of any particular instance of any phrase or metaphor that relates to union with Christ in the Pauline corpus.

      Additional Info
      Who was Peter and what was his true stature in the early church? For Protestants at least, Peter seems caught between two caricatures: the rustic fisherman of Galilee and the author of two lesser New Testament letters. And in both cases he is overshadowed by Paul. Yet Peter plays a significant role in the Gospels and is an apostolic leader in Acts. And those who study his letters find them filled with theological insight. In The Life and Witness of Peter Larry Helyer seeks to reinstate this neglected and underestimated apostle to his rightful stature as an early Christian leader and faithful witness to Christ. Arguing for a more confident assessment of the apostle’s presence and contribution to the New Testament, Helyer pulls Peter out from the long shadow of Paul. What we find is a Peter whose firsthand witness stands behind much of Mark’s Gospel, a Peter whose striking portrait in Acts can be trusted as reliable, and a Peter whose letters glow with spiritual and theological intelligence. Along the way we are rewarded with a careful analysis of prominent theological themes in Peter’s letters. And we learn much about the traditions, legends and legacy of Peter in the post-apostolic era.
