The exponentially increasing technological explosion. The "Trojan horse" refugee crisis. America's collapsing borders. The rise of the Sodom and Gomorrah spirit. The targeting of Christians around the world and particularly in the Middle East and the United States.

It has been a long time since there have been as many ideas and events in our world causing fear and anxiety as there are today. But one thing, in any event, is clear, and that is the duty of Christians to search more diligently than ever the prophetic Scriptures. Let us compare prophecies fulfilled with prophecies unfulfilled and attempt to make the one illustrate the other. Let us strive, above all, to obtain clear views of the things we should be expecting, both in the church and the world, before the end comes and time will be no more.

Throughout much of human history, our most important stories were passed down orally - including the stories about Jesus before they became written down in the Gospels. In this fascinating and deeply researched work, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Erhman investigates the role oral history has played in the New Testament - how the telling of these stories not only spread Jesus' message but helped shape it.

Highly regarded biblical scholar and speaker Christopher Wright shows us that how we read the Bible has a profound impact on how we understand what mission is. According to Wright, "People read (and preach) the Bible in tiny bits and pieces, for its promises or rules or doctrines, and fail to take it . . . as the true story of the universe, past, present, and future, within the plan and purposes of God—a story in which we are called to participate as coworkers with God." Wright encourages us to explore the Bible's grand narrative.

In Revelation Unveiled, Dr. Tim LaHaye, co-author of the best-selling Left Behind series, reveals the scriptural foundation of beloved novels.

The Doctrine of Sola-Scriptura (Bible Only) teaches that Scripture (the Bible alone) is the sole source of authority for the Christian and the Church. Coined and promulgated by Martin Luther and John Calvin (1500's), this doctrine has become the shifty ground upon which all Protestant-Christianity has been built. If it can be proven that Sola-Scriptura is an error and an innovation to orthodox Christianity, then the entire body of Protestant doctrine will come crashing down on top of itself. Using Scripture, reason, and a spoon full of humor, David L. Gray (also called Yoseph Miryam Daviyd)...

The Will of God could be the single most misunderstood topic in all of theology. Yet every believer ponders the Will of God and seeks to understand how it may be determining the details of their life. We reference the Will of God with statements like, "Everything happens for a reason." "If it’s God's Will, then it will happen." "God’s Will always prevails." "It’s impossible to be outside the Will of God" "God is in control." The truth is, every one of these statements is entirely unbiblical. Much of our modern understanding on the Will of God is actually philosophical more than it is ...

The letter of Jude is one of the shortest books in the New Testament. Along with Philemon, it contains only 25 verses. What Jude’s letter lacks in length, it makes up for in content. Jude can pack a big punch in a small package. And while Christians might be more familiar with other New Testament letters, Jude should not be overlooked. Jude had intended to write about salvation. Instead, he urged his readers to defend the Christian faith. Ungodly people had wormed their way into the churches of his readers. Jude is an essential letter for modern believers. First, the threat of false ...
