Bible Theology

How do we know who God is and what He wants from us? Many things are said about God, but what does God say about Himself? Does the Bible give us these answers? How should we approach the Bible in the first place? Why does God have different rules and consequences in the Old Testament than He does in the New Testament? What are the conditions for having a relationship with God throughout human history? Do they change? What are the conditions today? These and many more questions are answered in this book. God of Covenants covers a wide range of issues related to God, the Bible, and His people...

Twelve Extraordinary Women offers a poignant and personal look into the lives of some of the Bible's most faithful women. Their struggles and temptations are the same trials faced by all believers at all ages. Inside this book, best-selling author and Bible teacher John MacArthur shows that the God to whom they were so committed is the same God who continues to mold and use ordinary people today.

A significant tension exists between the modern scientific picture of the universe and the Biblical one. On the standard scientific picture, the universe started in a ‘Big Bang’ ‒ the explosion of a speck of highly concentrated matter 14 billion years ago. According to the Bible, God created the universe in six days about ten thousand years ago. On the scientific picture, the universe has evolved and continues to develop under the operation of fixed laws and chance. According to the Bible, God acts in the universe in providence and judgment, human beings are responsible for their ...

Read David’s inaugural song of thanksgiving at the Tabernacle of David again (1 Chronicles 16). That describes someone who “fears and loves to think about God” (Malachi 3:16-18). These people in Malachi who openly declare their love and appreciation for God learned the lessons of the Tabernacle of David while most long forgot its meaning and practice.’ What David did, especially since the dedication of the Tabernacle of David was proceeded by burnt and peace offerings, showed God’s declaration of peace with those “who fear and love to think about Me” (Malachi 3:16-18). It was ...

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 ...

Paul’s letter to the Philippians is rich with wisdom and direction for our time. We learn so much in its few pages about the purpose of Christian suffering. We see God’s hand pulling all the levers and strings behind the scenes, sovereignly directing all that befalls His people. And we see the glorious results as the gospel is more widely preached. Paul writes the epistle from prison in Rome, while he waits to see if he will be executed or set free. We see in the letter many of the real-life difficulties that believers face in the battles for humility, righteousness and obedience. The ...

"Biblical womanhood" is the idea that the Bible teaches God-ordained male leadership and female submission in the home and subordination in the church. Some say this hierarchy of authority is sufficiently evidenced by examples of male leadership (and lack of female leadership) in the Bible: the first human was male, Israel's official priests were male, most authors of Scripture were male, Jesus was male and chose twelve male Apostles. God is addressed as Father. Wives are commanded to submit to their husbands.

Christ as seen in the Offerings is a classic work by RF Kingcote which takes up in a simple way some of the offerings mentioned in Leviticus - a book which is commonly passed over as if it were not relevant to us today, but which is full of rich typical teaching.
