This book presents the whole Bible in an easy-to-understand style. God is its Author and we must see it from His perspective. God’s ultimate purpose is the complete restoration of all Creation. After Adam’s fall, God has worked systematically towards achieving this purpose. His progress is slow and methodical. Various stages must be completed before He can continue. These stages are shown and explained in a way you can understand them. Most teachers and preachers present the Bible in snapshots. These snapshots are pictures frozen in time.

Rather than contain vague references to the words and actions of "the LORD" and "God" within the text, The First Seventy offers both seasoned readers/listeners of the Bible and those new to the text a spiritual explanation that can be discussed, debated, and incorporated into each individual's moment-to-moment life. Weaving direct quotations from the Bible into a fluid narrative, The First Seventy: A Retelling Commentary, Creation - The Ten Commandments retells and explains the interconnected story that spans the first seventy chapters of the Bible.

There is perhaps no greater proof of man's innate sinfulness and hostility toward God than the staggering immorality of our culture. Most people, even many Christians, have either a distorted or a non-existent understanding of how God views his or her body, the primary focus of this book. As result, they are vulnerable to the deceptions and threats of the sexual revolutionaries. By examining and obeying God's perspective, we are equipped to navigate a culture saturated with sexual perversion and prurience, and we learn how to walk on a godly path of blessing and joy.

Historicism is the method of interpretation that actually developed out of the Protestant Reformation, which is the reason why, to quote one critic, the “view was so widely held, that for a long time it was called the Protestant view”. That alone should pique interest to a deeper study of the view.

In the spring of 2020, Christians in North Carolina began to pray for a spiritual awakening. It began in Marble, NC, with a 95-year-old preacher named Fred Lunsford, who felt God extended his days to pray for America. He traveled two miles daily to pray in his wife’s prayer garden at the bottom of Lighthouse Mountain. His faithful praying proves “the earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results” (James 5:16). What has happened since is nothing short of a miracle.

Disclaimer- Previously published until the title of 'Philemon: Charge it to My Account' From Slave to Brother encourages readers to explore one of the New Testament's often-overlooked letters, offering a powerful and transformative perspective on the gospel's message of reconciliation. In this illuminating and inspiring work, Koh explores the story of Philemon, Onesimus, and the Apostle Paul, showing its relevance to both the first-century context and modern life. Koh highlights the importance of forgiveness, grace, and the gospel's power to break down dividing barriers, using careful ...

Galatians graciously expounds how the saved sinner has been declared safe from damnation by faith alone in the risen Saviour, and how our heavenly hope is more than enough to help us stay on the straight on narrow for God's glory when we live by faith. But false teachers were turning this once-solid church into a legalistic church, resulting in Paul having to reaffirm the correct gospel. This 65-page book is perfect to show self-righteous people their absolute folly when trying to save themselves by their “good works” or “keeping the law,” and equally it is perfect to show ...

Philemon is one of the shortest books of the New Testament. This small letter is one of the Prison Epistles, written by the Apostle Paul at about the same time as Ephesians and Colossians and may have been carried back to Philemon by the same person and at the same time as Colossians and Ephesians. It is also considered to be one of the purest. This study will take us through the Book of Philemon with a magnifying glass; sometimes a microscope, as we discover practical insights into Christian and especially pastoral ethics.

Take a wild but eye-opening ride through the pages of the Bible and learn the stories they don’t teach in Sunday school. In his latest work, Paul Kasch is not afraid to offer sound commentary on the R-rated and X-rated content found in the scriptures. It is, after all, part of God’s Word. You will come away from these Bible lessons for adults spiritually charged, understanding that God did not always use perfect people to accomplish His will. That means he can even use the likes of you and me. A bit of warning, however: You might be absolutely blown away by the stories of some of the ...

Christianity has obscured the fact that Jesus taught Judaism. This loss is visible in many ways, such as the misinterpretation of many New Testament Scriptures. This book rediscovers the unyielding, even strengthened, commitment to the Law by Jesus and the New Testament authors. With both Bible citations and historical references, this book restores a full understanding of the gospel of the Jewish kingdom.
