“It’s time to return to biblical roots in reaching out to the younger generations,” says author Susan Seymour. She is passionate about the Word of God and America’s youth. However, years of teaching elementary, middle, and high school students and participating in church ministry programs to the same age groups have left her convinced that our nation is in dire need of sincere revival. Apostasy is both a call to awareness and an appeal for the church to simplify, returning to an emphasis on the simple foundations of our faith instead of a reliance on new and improved programs. Her message will encourage parents and leaders to take charge and contend for a generation that has been disillusioned by the ways of the world.

In the last few years, Christians have expressed dissatisfaction with the course their church has taken. Theyve noticed shifting priorities. The trend is to rewrite and reinterpret Gods Word. In There Is a Difference, author Susan Seymour discusses this paradigm shift and communicates the need to return to the Jesus of the Bible. Through scriptural references and a collection of outside sources, Seymour shows the importance of discernment, especially for todays youth as they face a critical future and stand on the edge of a fatal spiritual cliff. This study examines discernment, the choice between good and evil, and differences between Christianity and other religions. There Is a Difference gives hope and assurance to parents and church leaders, teaching important differences between right and wrong in a day of uncertainty. It seeks to help Christians recognize clever but deceitful half-truths which have invaded much of todays spiritual information.

Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

The Great Apostasy Considered in the Light of Scriptural and Secular History is a 1909 book by James E. Talmage that summarizes the Great Apostasy, Mormon doctrine, from the viewpoint of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Talmage wrote his book with the intention that it be used as a teaching tool within the LDS Church's Young Men's Mutual Improvement Association and the Young Women's Mutual Improvement Association. The book is "in many ways quite derivative" of B. H. Roberts's 1893 Outlines of Ecclesiastical History. Both writers borrowed heavily from the writings of Protestant scholars who argued that Roman Catholicism had apostatized from true Christianity. Talmage's book has been described as "the most recognizable and noted work on the topic" of Latter-day Saint views of the Great Apostasy.

In arguing for biblical infant baptism, it is not sufficient for us to say that infant baptism is merely consistent with the Scriptures, or that a biblical case can be made for it. In order for us to be satisfied that we are being biblical Christians, we must be content with nothing less than a clear biblical case requiring infant baptism. In a doctrinal matter of this importance, the standards of evidence are high.

In The Intertextual Reception of Genesis 1-3 in Irenaeus of Lyons, Stephen Presley explores the intertextual nature of Irenaeus’ interpretation of Genesis 1-3 by drawing on contemporary discussions on the topic. Irenaeus interprets the creation accounts, Presley argues, in continuity with the rest of the scriptural witness through a series of reading strategies including: a literary sense, prophetic fulfillment, typology, philological associations, organizational strategies, narratival arrangements, prosopological interpretation, illustrative identification, and general-to-particular reasoning. Irenaeus’ perspective competes with his Gnostic interlocutors who utilize similar methods of interpretation, but fashion distinctive textual relationships between Genesis 1-3 and other texts. These reading strategies circumscribe precisely how Irenaeus’ intertextual exegesis is applied to these creation texts within the integrative structure of his theological perspective.
