One part Dashiell Hammett, one part Dan Brown... When Theophilus, a Roman merchant, is tasked by King Herod to find the body of Christ and prove he didn’t rise from the dead, Theophilus goes down a road that will change everything he ever believed in.

Jesus prophesied that in the last days there would be many false prophets who would deceive many. Apostle Peter also wrote that in the last days many false teachers would be present among the saints. False prophets and false teachers are instruments of the Devil. The devil uses them for two main reasons; one, to ensure the saint does not receive his full inheritance in Christ and two, to ensure that many go to hell by believing the lies. This book has being written to warn church leaders and saints to be cautious about false teachers and also share wisdom on what the Church must do to ...

Before you could tuck it under your arm, before you could bring it up on your phone–you did not read Scripture, you listened to it. For centuries, the only way to access God’s Word was to hear it read aloud in public gatherings. Today, we blessed to own personal printed copies of the Bible, but there is a surprising benefit to hearing the Scriptures read aloud as it was for so many generations.

Part of the furor in the Middle East is the identity of Israel. Various sects of Christianity try to tackle its relationship with the nation, kingdom, and homeland of the Jews.

Discover: The five main views of the relationship between the Church and Israel The difference between the New Testament and New Covenant (It's not what you think) Why passages that seem to imply that the Church is Israel doesn't actually say so The question is explored in many angles, and...

The story of Jesus as the writers of the New Testament meant it to be told. Astonishingly unlike the New Testament as it has been handed down to us today, this remarkable new translation makes the story come alive as never before.

Schonfield has returned the New Testament to its own time and place, relating its documents to contemporary literature, customs and beliefs.

While our culture is effectively abandoning any remaining vestiges of biblical authority, the Church unashamedly delivers truth and hope. How is the Christian—and the local church—supposed to operate, grow, serve, and live out the Gospel? We need not guess at the answers. An inspired letter from the first century to a young pastor addressed them all . . . and the answers haven’t changed.

THE SUBJECT OF SONSHIP that Apostle Greg Hood has chosen for this book, Sonship of the Kingdom, is vital for our times. Its biblical understanding is indeed life-changing. Sadly, because of nominal religion’s portrayal of Father God, much of our world has the wrong perspective of who God really is. Sonship According to the Kingdom is the enlightenment we need to further our understanding, indeed, our relationship, with Father God. So many live in fear of our great God, not realizing his loving, tender, and gracious nature toward his children. He is not out to get us if we mess up. Let’s...

If you have ever had a discussion or debate with an atheist, you know that they often present very challenging assertions. I have engaged with atheists in more than one thousand debates over the last five decades. In every exchange where a challenge to the reliability of the New Testament has been presented, it is by the same claims that have been repeated over and over again since the first and second centuries. None of the modern attempts at impeaching the reliability of the New Testament by modern atheist scholars is different from those first asserted by atheists at the beginning of ...

The book of Jeremiah was written in a time when God’s people had abandoned their God for their own plan and purpose. That happened while the religious traditions of worship were still happening in Jerusalem. It was time similar to that of our own, when the nation and even the church pays lip service to God, but hearts are far from Him. This ancient prophecy is road sign for us today point the direction back to God for both the nation and the church. I hope you will join me in this Bible study, which speaks to the time when no one will listen.

In Are You Fit for Life? pastor Jack Graham examines this life in Christ. He argues that God calls believers to be both spiritually and physically fit - to honor Christ in one's body as well as in one's soul.

In this volume the authors introduce a large number of persons mentioned in the New Testament, including Lord Jesus, who have also been identified outside the Bible in history and archaeology. *** This book will strengthen your faith *** This book will help you to give a reason for your faith *** Take a stand for your faith!

Can any good come from thinking about death? Our natural tendency is to answer that question no! But what if our meditation on death was informed by a theological understanding of death, a recognition of the comfort Jesus's death affords Christians, and ethical guidance for dealing with death in these complicated days of modern medical developments? Rather than being morbidly unhelpful, authors Joel R. Beeke and Christopher W. Bogosh contend that meditating on dying and death can be profitable, even necessary, for us. Are you prepared to say that your death will be "gain" (Phil. 1:21)?

"SIT DOWN AND HAVE A CONVERSATION? Well I have a few minutes I suppose. A conversation with whom? With God? Listen, I’m not sure… . Oh, I don’t have to start the conversations. He is really good at that. Well, yes, I suppose He is. All right, here goes… ." This is the invitation the author accepted, and readers of this book are invited to join in these conversations and grow in their own daily conversations with the Lord. This book of conversations is based on three passages chosen by the author from each chapter of the New Testament. The idea of having conversations with the Lord ...

Some Christians think Paul's reference to "saved through childbearing" in 1 Timothy 2:15 means that women are slated primarily for delivering and raising children. Alternate readings, however, sometimes fail to build on the best historical and textual evidence. Sandra Glahn thinks that we have misunderstood Paul by misunderstanding the context to which he wrote. A key to reading and applying 1 Timothy, Glahn argues, lies in getting to know a mysterious figure who haunts the letter: the goddess Artemis.

Union with Christ is an important theological and practical concept that has received considerable attention in recent years. But not much consideration has been given to this union and its benefits in light of Jesus's resurrection and ascension. In this follow-up to his monumental A New Testament Biblical Theology, G. K. Beale summarizes and expands on that work with an eye to fleshing out the theological implications of the resurrection and ascension.
