Commentaries On Romans 1-2 Corinthians And Hebrews
$70.99
But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead . . . Cyril of Alexandria (c. 378-444) was one of the most significant figures in the early church: bishop of the church, defender of orthodoxy, proponent of Alexandrian theology. Indeed, he is probably best known as the supporter of the term Theotokos (God-bearer) with regard to Mary in opposition to Nestorius during the early Christological controversies. But Cyril viewed himself, first and foremost, as an interpreter of Scripture. In this volume in IVP Academic’s Ancient Christian Texts series, Joel Elowsky and David Maxwell offer–for the first time in English–a translation of the surviving Greek and Syriac fragments of Cyril’s commentaries on four New Testament epistles: Romans, 1-2 Corinthians, and Hebrews. Abounding with Cyril’s insights regarding these canonical texts and biblical themes such as the triune nature of God, Christ’s sacrificial death, and justification, these commentaries are essential tools for understanding Cyril’s reading of Holy Scripture. Ancient Christian Texts is a series of new translations, most of which are here presented in English for the first time. The series provides contemporary readers with the resources they need to study for themselves the key writings of the early church. The texts represented in the series are full-length commentaries or sermon series based on biblical books or extended scriptural passages.

God I Never Knew

This insightful and biblically-based book moves beyond theological jargon, religious tradition, and cultural misconceptions to clarify what the Holy Spirit promises to do in your life:
* Dwell within you
* Be your helper
* Guide you into all truth
* Comfort you
* Pray for you
* Show you things to come
* Never leave youIt’s time to experience the Holy Spirit in a fresh, new way-to meet the God you may have never known.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
