You have read the book of Acts before, but you have never heard the men who lived it tell the story themselves. For the first eleven chapters PETER tells the story of Acts. Then beginning in chapter thirteen Barnabas tells his part of the story . . . then Silas. Then TIMOTHY, etc. It is as though each man left a diary for you to read. You now have a record of the eye witness account of the first-century events. Acts in First Person is the perfect companion to The Story of My Life . . . as Told by Jesus Christ. The five historical books of the New Testament are all now in first person.

Christianity in England is in decline. Congregations are dwindling and ever fewer young people believe. Should we merely shrug our shoulders and accept this as inevitable and even healthy, or is something important being lost? Bijan Omrani argues that this decline is the most momentous change to occur in English history. He shows how a religion that has been part of our national story for over 1700 years was instrumental in the creation and development of the English nation, its codes of law and morality, and its structures of government and kingship.

This groundbreaking international bestseller lays to rest many myths about the Holocaust: that Germans were ignorant of the mass destruction of Jews, that the killers were all SS men, and that those who slaughtered Jews did so reluctantly. Hitler's Willing Executioners provides conclusive evidence that the extermination of European Jewry engaged the energies and enthusiasm of tens of thousands of ordinary Germans.

Why does Israel exist? Why is it worthy of remaining a critical ally of the United States? Why have critical race theorists identified Israel and the US as the most pernicious examples of "settler colonialism"? Answers to these questions were developing during the first term of President Trump. But they were abandoned by the Biden-Harris Administration, imperiling Israel and the United States. In The Battle for the Jewish State, Victoria Coates shows how the conflict in Israel is not a regional issue to be resolved through an interminable diplomatic peace process.

Pagan Origins of the Christ Myth by John G. Jackson is a concise yet provocative exploration of the parallels between Christian doctrines and ancient pagan mythology.

Crucifixion, the Romans believed, was the worst fate imaginable, a punishment reserved for slaves. How astonishing it was, then, that people should have come to believe that one particular victim of crucifixion—an obscure provincial by the name of Jesus—was to be worshipped as a god.

Pariah status was once the lot of the Jewish People. It has now devolved upon the Jewish state and this book highlights reasons for the continuing hostility. Part I sets the mood with ‘says’ and ‘don’t says’. They are for use in private conversation, at dinner parties or on social or public media. Also considered are such recurring themes as ‘Diversion Strategy’, ‘Soft-Touch targeting’ and ‘Replacement Theology’. Part II deals with Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS), Jews against the Jewish state (self-hating Jews), the Hebrew language as a key Pro-active aid as ...

Until now, the standard narrative of American religious history has begun with English settlers in Jamestown or Plymouth and remained predominantly Protestant and Atlantic. Driven by his strong sense of the historical and moral shortcomings of the usual story, Thomas A. Tweed offers a very different narrative in this ambitious new history.

Prem Pradhan was led to Christ by members of Bakht Singh's people, in a city near Nepal. He was Nepal's first modern convert. Later, he became Nepal's apostle. By the end of his life, Prem had spent half of his Christian life in prisons. His crime? Preaching Christ and baptizing others. His very first converts were all fellow prisoners. (By law, every convert had to spend one year in prison for the crime of being baptized.) Prem insisted that all his converts obey the law.

In an isolated spot on the rocky coastline of northern California, past and present converge, and the lives of people of disparate cultures and backgrounds come together to weave a story of faith and hope. Fort Ross, site of the oldest presence of Orthodox Christianity in the continental United States, is the pivot point for this weaving together of the stories of the first Native American saint, Peter the Aleut, with those of author Robert John Hammond and other contemporary converts to Orthodoxy. Written in a lyrical and impressionistic style, this volume will inspire the reader to delve ...

Discoveries from the historical studies of Jesus Christ Divided and The Conspiracy of the Christ opened an opportunity to examine the original theology of Christianity.

Many people are interested in exploring nondualistic interpretations of the experience of Jesus. But all too often, nondualism is understood in only a vague way, without specifying the dualisms that are sought to be overcome. There is often an emphasis on an experience of oneness with God. But how does such an experience relate to the historical Jesus? How does it relate to his understanding of himself as the Messiah/Son of Man/Son of God? What do these terms and ideas mean in the Jewish context of his time, and what can we say about their origin, and how these ideas relate to other ...

Jonah: The Prophet Who Ran, and the God Who Pursued Tucked among the Minor Prophets, the Book of Jonah stands apart as a story-driven account of a reluctant prophet, a rebellious heart, and a God whose mercy knows no borders. Set during a time of Israelite strength but spiritual decline, Jonah’s call to preach repentance to Nineveh, the feared capital of Assyria, sets the stage for a dramatic journey marked by flight, storm, surrender, and surprising grace. Far more than a tale of a man and a fish, Jonah is a mirror held up to every believer who has ever run from obedience, wrestled with ...

God commands believers to consider two men: Melchizedek and Jesus Christ. Melchizedek is priest of the most high God, yet his priesthood’s doctrines remain undisclosed.

After considering Melchizedek for nearly four thousand years, the elusive king priest remains an enigma in God’s eternal plan.

The year was 1848 and three people, their lives previously unconnected, were about to reshape the world. Karl Marx's Manifesto rolled off London presses as women gathered at Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s convention in Seneca Falls, N.Y. to demand equal rights. At the same time, Alfred Russel Wallace sailed to Brazil to collect specimens for something being called natural selection. This pivotal year marked the moment Western civilization began a two-century descent—not merely from tradition, but Creation itself. In this sweeping historical and cultural analysis, “The Age of Envy” traces ...

Short Stories with an element of mystery and biblical spirituality. The setting for each of these speculative accounts is from the time of Adam's creation to Noah's flood. There is no attempt at presenting a totally historical account of events, only an effort to paint word pictures of what might have happened in the lives of a few folk from that time period. Some of the characters in the stories we know by name and others are fictitious, but all of the speculative accounts are well within the realm of reason. Each account is an attempt to illustrate a larger theme that, hopefully, will ...
