Jonah is often called the most missional book in the Old Testament. In it, God calls Jonah, the prophet, to go to Nineveh, the capital city of Assyria, and preach a message of judgment. However, he initially rebels as the Assyrians were Israel’s enemies and greatest threat. Jonah’s reluctance to share God’s message was a reflection of Israel as a nation. They were called by God to be his chosen people. They were to be stewards of God’s temple and his Word, and one day his Son, the messiah, would come from them to die for the sins of the world. The Israelites were blessed so they ...

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.

Most Christians have never been challenged to grow up because the institutional church is a religion and not the family of God.

This book will challenge you to give up your religion for a true relationship with the God and Father of our Lord Jesus.

Vista, udito, tatto, gusto, olfatto. La fisicità della divinità deve essere presa alla lettera. Erri De Luca e Gennaro Matino vanno dritti alla sostanza della lingua sacra. Perché le scritture per parlarci devono adottare vie di comunicazione a noi familiari. Gli apostoli vedono Dio, lo toccano, sentono la sua voce, ne percepiscono il profumo, condividono il pane nell'ultima cena.

The wisdom of Solomon was part of the Greek Bible most often quoted by Jesus Christ and the Apostles. To what degree did Jesus and the Apostles regard the content of this book, and incorporate it in their teachings? The evidence is in the text itself. Conceptual themes are considered with respect to frequent allusions made throughout the New Testament.

In 1984 my little family, consisting of myself and my wife, who was pregnant with our firstborn son, moved to Astoria Oregon. I had heard of two families in the city who were praying for someone to come plant a New Testament Baptist Church. The evening we arrived in town, I met two others. While all four families would have said they were independent, fundamental Baptists, they were as different as night and day. One of those families in particular held to doctrinal positions that were strange to me and the rest of us. They derived those doctrines, to a large extent, from some typology out ...

The Gospel According to Mark is the shortest of the four Gospels, and some believe it may have been written as a sort of “tract” meant to be read by a fast moving and “on the go” type of people.[1] It was, of course, written by Mark, or sometimes called John Mark in the Bible. Mark’s readership is a Roman person. His life is busy and fast paced He is always on the move and traveling He doesn’t have a lot of time for incidentals So Mark cuts right to the chase. Again a quote, “The abruptness with which he announces his subject, and the energetic brevity with which, passing by ...

We live in a church age of such profound apostasy that a large segment of evangelicalism is unable to biblically explain what it is to be a "Christian". This is largely due to a wholesale neglect of the doctrine of regeneration - that supernatural impartation of spiritual life to the spiritually dead that causes individuals to savingly believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and so radically transforms their natures that the very desires of their hearts and acts of their wills reflect the nature of God who has made them new creatures in Christ. This is the subject of this little book.
