New Testament English

Leading New Testament scholar Robert M. Price has taken umbrage at the cavalier manner in which Rev. Lee Strobel has misrepresented the field of Bible scholarship in his book The Case for Christ. Price exposes and refutes Strobel's arguments chapter-by-chapter. In doing so, he has occasion to wipe out the entire field of Christian apologetics as summarized by Strobel. This book is a must-read for anyone bewildered by the various books published by Rev. Strobel.

The New Testament has a great deal to teach about the topic of money. Many Biblical subjects stir up controversy, but few more so than a discussion of one's finances. This book is an extensive study of what the Scriptures say about monetary giving, particularly in the light of the New Covenant. This book is an excellent resource for pastors, missionaries, or ministry leaders. Any follower of Jesus Christ will benefit from the Word of God expounded on in this book. Three types of giving have been examined in these pages. Law-led giving: as mandated by the Law of Moses; Free-will giving: as ...

This book is not a fictional story but a biographical history. The appropriate verses of the Four Gospels have been fit together into a seamless biographical narrative of Jesus’ last earthly week and words as originally told by the gospel writers. You will be able to follow the sequence of what Jesus did, endured, and taught in those closing days of his Passion. You will be able to walk with Jesus through what is now called Holy Week and observe on each successive day or evening where he went, what he did, what opposition he endured, what he taught, what he suffered, how he felt, and what...

Boldly change your life and those you influence by developing an ear to not only hear, but to also listen to God's heart. God released grace upon Anna to fast and pray unto the revelation of Jesus to the Earth the first time. God is releasing a similar grace upon a whole generation of women who will operate in a similar anointing as Anna's unto the revelation of Jesus to the Earth in his second coming.

The "Gospel of Nicodemus," also known as the "Acts of Pilate" or the "Book of Nicodemus," is an apocryphal text that holds a significant place in Christian tradition and literature. This ancient work is not included in the canonical New Testament, but it has been an important part of Christian storytelling and theological discourse for centuries.

The Easter Story, performed by today's leading African-American actors, musicians, and clergy.

In this text, I am not attempting to sway anyone from their current beliefs. Rather, I am attempting to sew together many of the loose ends of history, literature (including the Bible and the world’s other religious texts), science, and human experience. Though the observations might seem rather fantastical, I find them to be only deductions that incorporate the known facts. The reader must make his/her own decisions as to the authenticity of the citations used in this text and then make judgment as to the factual weights of both the pros and the cons behind the presence or absence of ...

Todd Heller is an arrogant ER physician who stubbornly denies the existence of God. A ministering angel forces him back in time to the harsh, primitive culture of ancient Israel so he can witness the miracles of Jesus with his own eyes. Meticulously researched for historical accuracy, this plot is woven into the gospel account of the final year of Christ’s ministry. Christians who fantasize about going back in time to witness the miracles of Jesus will enjoy the realistic depiction of life in ancient Israel as experienced from a 21st century mentality. This novel is the sequel to The ...

Walk through the Bible's earliest source for the life of Jesus with scholar Amy-Jill Levine as she examines John the Baptizer, the Little Apocalypse, the Transfiguration, and several of Jesus's most notable stories and parables. The Good News of the gospel message comes alive in this book as listeners see Jesus as divine and human, powerful and weak, approachable yet mysterious. The book features an in-depth study of select passages and illuminates the Gospel in its historical context and as a source for the other gospels.

Why would anyone want to study the prophet named Isaiah? Afterall, he lived centuries ago, in a time nothing like our own days, or were they? Can a person or nation benefit from the mistakes made by others or is it just better to replicate them for ourselves? Ignoring history is certainly the right of a person or nation, and by the looks of things today we are skilled at doing that. But if you are tired of the uncertainty and chaos that is our new norm, then may I suggest the book of Isaiah has something to say to us today. Won’t you join me to see what that is?

Why does the Bible contain so many stories of hurting people? Though their situations vary, their conditions don't. They have nowhere to turn. Yet before their eyes stands a never-say-die Galilean who majors in stepping in when everyone else steps out. Lucado reminds us that the purpose of these portraits isn't to tell us what Jesus did-but rather to remind us what Jesus still does.

Between 50 and 90 CE, the various writings that comprise the New Testament were written, including the four Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, the Epistles of Paul, and other letters to more general communities of the early Church. But what is recognized as the 26 books of the New Testament today, in literally hundreds of English translations, actually took several more centuries to be determined as "canonical" by the Church.

In this book, H.K. Holland takes the old questions and freshly analyzes and answers them. Some of these questions include: -Is the Bible from God? -How do people become Christians? -Where do people go when they die? -Did God really love Jacob and hate Esau? -Is Jesus the Son of God? -Is repentance just blabbering words you hear from a preacher? -Is baptism really necessary? -Is it bad if people don't believe in Jesus? -Does the Holy Spirit talk? And other questions.

Traditional cultures in many parts of the world have displayed a profound appreciation of the need for human beings to understand each other, leaving aside religious partisanship in a search for common understanding of the worldly, the transcendent, and the divine. Poetry and music may build such lasting bridges and provide disparate cultures with forms for public celebration. To promote a stronger general sense of community, and encourage singing the gospel, THE SONG OF MARK retells the story as a poem arranged in rhymed couplets with four beats per line, a ballad form known as long meter....

Some questions about the New Testament canon are far from settled, either in the academy or the church—to say nothing of misconceptions and confusion. This is a crucial topic, given the importance of the canon's formation for our understanding of early Christianity and the nature of the Christian faith itself. In Creating the Canon, Benjamin P. Laird explores misunderstood, disputed, and overlooked matters tied to the composition, collection, and authority of the New Testament canon.

This book (Approx. 154,172 words in length -- 113 Chapters) contains many of my book titles on the subject of Holy Bible doctrines from a fundamental Christian faith perspective. While some chapters include aspects of what some Christians refer to as "Pentecostal" or "charismatic" beliefs, due to mentions of miraculous events and of the supernatural "gifts of the Spirit" as described in the New Testament, the majority of Bible teachings included, are beliefs held by a majority of fundamental Christian believers but with aspects included that you do not often hear coming from the pulpits of ...

All who feel depressed, deluded or discouraged can find hope in all of life's difficult situations: When life seems too small and problems seem too great; when personal insignificance outweighs God's significance; when overwhelmed by the ungodly majority; or when facing death or choosing life.

Anne Catherine Emmerich was born in Germany in 1774. As a child she believed that angels, saints, and the Holy Family visited and talked with her as she worked in the fields. At twenty-four, she had her first mystic vision of the sufferings of Christ, accompanied by stigmata and bleeding as if from the crown of thorns. At twenty-nine, she became an Augustinian nun and continued to have visions and stigmata. In her visions, she recounted scenes from the life of Christ, which she seemed to have witnessed.
