Eternal Scars : The Great High Priest After The Order Of Melchizedek And Th
$19.98
The Lord has Sworn and Will Not Change His Mind: “You Are a Priest Forever After the Order of Melchizedek.” (Psalm 110:4) A mysterious passage. A radical truth. The author of the book of Hebrews proclaims, “This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek” (Hebrews 6:9-10). Why is this hope such an anchor of the soul? And why is understanding the pre-eminent Priest after the “order of Melchizedek” of unparalleled significance in the life of the believer? Because wrapped in this ministry of the Messiah is your eternal salvation and your eternal relationship with Jesus Christ. You will never know your Lord in any other way. He will always be the Great High Priest. The reformer Martin Luther went so far as to state: “There is a great and rich fountain in this verse which speaks of Christ as ‘a Priest forever’ or ‘an eternal Priest’; indeed, it is a treasure, the source of all Christian doctrine, understanding,wisdom, and comfort. There is no single passage in Scripture which expresses this so richly or completely.” When Jesus was raised from the dead, all was restored except His scars from the cross. These Eternal Scars proclaim Him as the Great High Priest after the order of Melchizedek. This book explores the “story behind the scars” and the rich significance of understanding Jesus as our eternal High Priest.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99In 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.
