Codigo Del Apocalipsis – (Spanish)
$16.99?Estamos en los ultimos dias? ?Cuales senales debo estar buscando? “La mayoria de lo que has escuchado, leido o aprendido acerca de los ultimos dias es incorrecto”, dice el popular presentador radial y apologista, Hank Hanegraaff. “Hemos llegado a aceptar una gran variedad de creencias y ensenanzas acerca del futuro, sobre la batalla final entre el bien y el mal, los ultimos dias y de como va a ser el fin del mundo. Y la mayoria de estos conceptos y ensenanzas se basa en malas interpretaciones fundamentales de lo que las Escrituras dicen acerca de los ultimos dias”. El codigo del Apocalipsis ayuda a los lectores a comprender lo que la Biblia dice realmente acerca de los ultimos dias y explica la manera en que nuestros conceptos sobre los ultimos dias influyen directamente en nuestros pensamientos, opiniones y decisiones politicas con respecto al estado actual de Israel, la guerra contra el terrorismo y nuestra participacion en los asuntos vitales del Medio Oriente.
Are we living in the end times? What are the signs I should be looking for?
“Most of what you’ve heard, read, or been told about the end times is wrong,” says popular radio host and best-selling apologist, Hank Hanegraaff. “We have come to accept a wide range of beliefs and teachings about the future, about the ultimate battle between good and evil, about the last days, and about how our world will end. And most of these beliefs and teachings are based on fundamental misinterpretations of what the Scriptures really say about the end times.” El codigo del Apocalipsis helps readers understand what the Bible really says and shows how our beliefs about the end times directly influence our thoughts, opinions, and political decisions about the current state of Israel, the war on terror, and our involvement in critical issues in the Middle East.

Astonishments : Selected Poems Of Anna Kamienska
$21.00Kamieska came of age during the horrors of the Nazi occupation of Poland and lived under the oppression of Communism. These experiences, and the sudden death of her husband, led her to engage with the Bible and the great religious thinkers of the 20th century.
Her poems record the struggles of a rational mind with religious faith, addressing loneliness and uncertainty in a direct, unsentimental manner. While exploring the meaning of loss and grief, and the yearning for love, Kamienska’s poetry still expresses a quiet humor and a pervasive sense of gratitude for human existence and for a myriad of creatures: hedgehogs, birds, and “young leaves willing to open up to the sun.”
In the quiet space of Kamieska’s poems “the tenderness of things enfolds you” and words speak as eloquently as the silence.

Who Will Be Saved
$21.99What does it mean to say that salvation is God’s business, and God’s alone?
“Who will be saved?” is almost always a question about them, and rarely about us. Thinking itself wrapped securely in the everlasting arms, the church has spent much of its history speculating on whether God will allow anyone else to join the party.
But if we truly believe that salvation is God’s business, and God’s alone, then perhaps we should stop asking, “Who will be saved?” and ask instead, “How is God calling me to participate in the redemption of the world?” Rejecting the idea that God chooses some and not others, drawing on his Wesleyan heritage, and deepening his longstanding theological conversation with Karl Barth, Willimon reflects as a pastor and a theologian on God’s intention that all would someday return from the far country into the loving embrace of the One who created them.

This book confronts the facts and invokes the Spirit. It will explore the multiple meaning of recovery and the denomination’s prospect for recovering.

Gospel Of Luke And The Acts Of The Apostles
$28.99Introduces literary, historical, and theological issues of Luke and Acts.
Biblical texts create worlds of meaning, and invite readers to enter them. When readers enter such textual worlds, which are often strange and complex, they are confronted with theological claims. With this in mind, the purpose of the Interpreting Biblical Texts series is to help serious readers in their experience of reading and interpreting by providing guides for their journeys into textual worlds. The controlling perspective is expressed in the operative word of the title–interpreting. The primary focus of the series is not so much on the world behind the texts or out of which the texts have arisen as on the worlds created by the texts in their engagement with readers.
In keeping with the goals of the series, this volume provides an introductory guide to readers of the New Testament books of Luke and Acts. It focuses on both the synchronic and diachronic dimensions of the literature in an effort to acquaint readers with literary, historical, and theological issues that will facilitate interpretation of these important books.
F. Scott Spencer is Professor of New Testament at Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond.

Rise And Demise Of Black Theology
$44.99Black Theology emerged in the 1960s as a response to black consciousness. In South Africa, it is a critique of power; in the UK it is a political theology of black culture. The dominant form of Black Theology has been in the USA, originally influenced by Black Power and the critique of white racism. Since then, it claims to have broadened its perspective to include oppression on the grounds of race, gender and class. In this book, Alistair Kee contests this claim, arguing that Black and Womanist Theologies present inadequate analysis of race and gender and no account at all of class or economic oppression.With a few notable exceptions, Black Theology in the USA repeats the mantras of the 1970s, the discourse of modernity. Content with American capitalism, it fails to address the source of the impoverishment of black Americans at home. Content with a romantic image of Africa, this ‘African-American’ movement fails to defend contemporary Africa against predatory American global ambitions. Blacks in the West, Kee claims here,

Just As I Am
$15.99This book enables us to view the powerhouse that lies within the person [of Ruth Etchells] . . . She has aimed to provide a resource to help others in their prayers.

So this book is meant to help us ‘be where He is likely to appear’ It represents the ‘fruits of many years’ daily conversation with God, often wrestling, sometimes resting, occasionally glorying, almost always – eventually – thanking’ There is material for the morning and evening of each day for a month, as well as for the seasons of the Christian year and for special times of joy and sorrow. While drawing on a wide range of Christian writers, almost all of the prayers were specially written for this book.

Truth
$20.61The Truth, was inspired by a conversation the author had over lunch one day about Jesus. The prevailing thought in many circles is that He was no more than a prophet. Carl E. Holland set out to prove from Scripture that Jesus was more than just a prophet or a good man. He was God who came to Earth in human form to provide redemption for mankind. This study is an exciting examination of who Jesus was in eternity past, His role in dealing with the rebellion of Satan, who Jesus is today, and what He will be doing in the future. Holland reveals that Jesus was the One who created all things through a thorough examination of creation. His role in heaven as the Head of the Church is explained, and Holland delves into prophetic fulfillment to uncover Jesus’ future role in the ages to come.

Creation Account Unsnagged
$27.48This book depicts the intimate details of the creation account and demonstrates how the sequence of events described in chapter one of Genesis correlates exactly to documented occurrences of these events. Many of the Hebrew idioms that are used in describing the creation account are unique, for which there are no comparable English words. Therefore translations of Genesis chapter one provide a very sketchy skeletal overview of what transpired in creation when compared to the original text. The commentaries of several prominent conservative Hebrew scholars – (i.e. scholars who hold that the Bible is the divine inspired word of God) provide us with the accurate meanings of these specific Hebrew idioms. These commentaries add a unique, perfectly proportioned body to the bare bones depiction that the translation of Genesis chapter one provides. This masterpiece which emerges graphically depicts in sweeping detail how novel creative breakthroughs led to the formation of the universe.

10. Biblical Criticism And Christian Theology: A Few Examples
Conclusions: Biblical Criticism And Christian Institutions
IndexAdditional Info
In their studies, students at conservative colleges and seminaries are introduced to the methods and conclusions of critical biblical scholarship. These conclusions often produce a disconcerting challenge to the faith students came to explore. A few embrace the skeptical stance, resulting in a “secular” response. Many display a “traditional” response, rejecting biblical criticism as a threat to biblical authority and a faulty result of Enlightenment thinking. Between these two poles, is there a third way? Can evangelical students and scholars incorporate the insights of biblical criticism and at the same time maintain a high view of Scripture and a vital faith?
Kenton Sparks has wrestled with these questions as a student, pastor, and scholar. In God’s Word in Human Words, he argues that the insights from historical and biblical criticism can indeed be valuable to evangelicals and may even yield a new set of solutions to seemingly intractable problems in biblical studies while avoiding pat answers. This constructive response to biblical criticism includes taking seriously both the divine and the human aspects of the Bible and acknowledging the diversity that exists in the biblical texts. The discussion is substantive, thorough, and even controversial, as the author offers up challenges to the evangelical status quo.Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Pretrib Rapture : Choreographed In The Gospels
$19.98Jesus told His disciples (that includes us) to Watch for His return (Matt. 24:42) ? The rapture is a subject of much controversy. Since scholars cannot agree on the timing of the rapture, how can we know what to believe? ? Is the rapture “pie in the sky” theology? ? This book does not tread a well-worn path. The Bible has more to say about the rapture than has been previously realized. ? This oft-surprising, ground-breaking book reveals the choreographed, pretrib answer from none other than Jesus Himself. While we in the church have been arguing amongst ourselves about the timing of the rapture, some no longer look for it. Others rip the spirit from the imminent return of the Lord, teaching that He only returns at the end of human history. The Pretrib Rapture Choreographed in the Gospels can resolve doubt, bring back hope, and instill confidence in the pretrib rapture.

Engaging The Doctrine Of God
$36.00Traditionally, evangelical theology has been committed to a position of classical theism, emphasizing God’s immutability and omniscience. Of late, traditional affirmations have been challenged by theologians who affirm a more christological focus (often drawing from Karl Barth’s theology) and by those who affirm a theology of “open theism.”
The essays gathered in this collection give evidence of the depth and creativity of contemporary evangelical theology as well as the variety of positions held by those within the movement. Part one focuses on New Testament studies and the earliest development of a Christian doctrine of God. Part two considers two figures who have widely influenced evangelical theology. Part three considers opinions on the cross, the suffering and sovereignty of God, and the contemporary debate, and part four concludes with a chapter on theology and pastoral care.Both scholars and clergy will find that these essays represent the entire range of thought within the evangelical tradition. The contributors provide readers with a stimulating guide to the contemporary debate.
Contributors include David F. Wright, N. T. Wright, D. A. Carson, Paul Helm, Oliver D. Crisp, John Webster, Henri A. Blocher, Pierre Berthoud, Stephen N. Williams, Bruce L. McCormack, and Donald Macleod.

Deconstructing Theodicy
$25.00Maimonides called Job a “strange and wonderful book.” For many readers, “strange” might well suffice. Though Job has been characterized as a theodicy, to the sincere reader the book can fail to satisfy the soul’s longing for answers to the problem of suffering. Perhaps that in fact is the point of Job–there are no satisfactory propositional arguments for why people suffer.
In this compact yet rich volume, philosopher of religion David Burrell shows that Job actually deconstructs the theories of theodicy proposed by commentators over the centuries. This is seen in the fact that Job’s three friends themselves offer theodicies, but are rebuked in the end, whereas Job, who seeks only to speak to God, is granted his audience. Rather than providing an exegetical commentary, Burrell engages in theological and philosophical reflection on the major movements of the book. Deconstructing Theodicy also contains an interfaith perspective with the inclusion of a chapter by Islamic scholar A. H. Johns on the reading of the Job figure in the Koran. Burrell then goes on to examine the treatment of Job in four classical commentaries and finally explores Job’s contribution to faith and theology as an affirmation that God hears and heeds our cries of anguish.
