  War Of Loves

  $18.99

  David Bennett came out to his parents as gay when he was fourteen and entered Sydney’s active gay community a few years later. In A War of Loves, he shares his growing desire as a gay rights activist to see justice for LGBTQI people, his journey through new age religions and French existentialism, and his university years as a postmodernist–before Jesus Christ showed up in his life in a highly unexpected way, leading him down a path he never would have imagined or predicted.David had believed he was disqualified from God’s love until he encountered that for himself in Jesus Christ. In A War of Loves, he recounts his dramatic story, investigates what the Bible teaches about sexuality, and above all demonstrates the profligate, unqualified grace of God.

  From Ashes To Glory

  $17.99

  Even Before Publishing
  CT (Charlie) Studd was a cricketer of the highest class. He played in the famed Test Match between England and Australia in 1882 that began the legend of the Ashes. From Ashes to Glory tells the story of this remarkable, dedicated man, and contains an authentic account of the 1882 Ashes Test, with all its drama. At the peak of his fame Studd retired from cricket to serve as a missionary in China. In 1885 he was one of seven men of wealth and privilege (‘The Cambridge Seven’), who shocked the nation, by giving up everything to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Chinese. While there he suffered much, but saw many people come to Christ. He later spent six years as a missionary in India, where he opened a school which is still serving the community today. In 1913 he went to Central Africa and became the founder of the mission organisation WEC International, which today has about 1,800 workers in 50 countries. Dr Evan Davies, former International Director of WEC International, recommends this book and reminds us that ‘Today thousands enjoy being part of God’s family because of Studd’s pioneer example.’

  Origins Of Left Behind Eschatology

  $28.73

  The Left Behind books by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins have swept across the Christian world. But what are the origins of such Left Behind ideas as the pretribulation rapture and the sharp distinction between Israel and the Church? The Origins of Left Behind Eschatology begins by investigating the eschatology behind the Left Behind stories, and selects eight teachings which are essential to that way of understanding the End Times. It then searches through the relevant documents produced by the Early Church and many since the Reformation, looking for the origins of each of those eight ideas and when and how they came together in a system. There are plenty of surprises.

  The Origins of Left Behind Eschatology is a slightly enlarged version of Bennett’s PhD dissertation. It has been called a “clearly argued, thoroughly researched and overwhelmingly convincing thesis”, the conclusions of which “should … dispel much of the uncertainty that has dogged this area of millennial studies.” (Crawford Gribben – author of Rapture Fiction and the Evangelical Crisis).

  Why Left Behind Should Be Left Behind

  $19.36

  The Left Behind books have swept across the Christian world. But is the message they contain about the end of the world true to the teaching of the Bible? Many Christians believe that it is not. Why Left Behind Should Be Left Behind puts Left Behind beliefs under the biblical microscope and discovers that they distort the true Christian message. It also presents an alternative theology of the End Times that is biblical and rational, in a simple but not simplistic style. It will help you understand this important subject. Comments about the earlier edition: “It is extremely readable and lucid, making sense of a very difficult subject” (Carolyn Owen, Editor). “There is no sensationalism here, just careful exegesis of relevant Bible passages” (New Life). “It is an excellent introduction to the whole subject of the end times” (Evangelical Action).
