DOWNLOAD EBOOKMichael J. Almeida presents a bold new defence of the existence of God.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGod’s code of conduct is as relevant and insistent today as it’s always been. The landscape of contemporary society reveals that we neither know nor care much about the Law of God. There is: A general lawlessness in the lives of professing Christians. An absence of the fear of God in public worship and private living. A growing confidence in ourselves and doubt concerning God and His Word. Amidst this moral crisis, the message of the Ten Commandments can give us order, direction, and hope. With dynamic implications for how each of us lives every day, Pathway to Freedom will challenge you to think long and hard about the significance of God’s Law. “We have entered into a time of moral crisis in our culture and in the church as well. Stories about divorce, adultery, and the individualized picking and choosing of doctrines abound. Pathway to Freedom is forthright and necessary teaching that today’s church cannot afford to ignore. How now shall we live? The beginning of the answer must be in obedience to God’s moral law summarized in the Ten Commandments.” —CHARLES COLSON, PRISON FELLOWSHIP MINISTRIES, WASHINGTON, D.C.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe doctrine of election is one of the most difficult in all of Christian theology. It is also one of the most prominent doctrines, for the election of Israel, Christ, and the church is a theme that runs through the Scriptures. Yet, notes James Daane, election is rarely preached from the pulpit. In The Freedom of God Daane offers an explanation for this curious silence, presents a corrective to the scholasticism that has infected Reformed theology, and argues that the doctrine of election is in fact preached whenever Christ is faithfully proclaimed. Interacting with such major Reformed theologians as Bavinck, Hoeksema, VanTil, and others, Daane here offers a clear, biblically based, truly Reformed understanding of the crucial significance of election in relation to preaching.
Liberty in the Things of God

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom one of the leading historians of Christianity comes this sweeping reassessment of religious freedom, from the church fathers to John Locke In the ancient world Christian apologists wrote in defense of their right to practice their faith in the cities of the Roman Empire. They argued that religious faith is an inward disposition of the mind and heart and cannot be coerced by external force, laying a foundation on which later generations would build. Chronicling the history of the struggle for religious freedom from the early Christian movement through the seventeenth century, Robert Louis Wilken shows that the origins of religious freedom and liberty of conscience are religious, not political, in origin. They took form before the Enlightenment through the labors of men and women of faith who believed there could be no justice in society without liberty in the things of God. This provocative book, drawing on writings from the early Church as well as the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, reminds us of how "the meditations of the past were fitted to affairs of a later day."
