The Christian faith once meant that a believer responded to a dark world by word and by deed. However, a modern, self-centered church has isolated the faith to a pietism that relinquishes charitable responsibility to the state. The end result has been the empowering of a humanistic world order. In addition, God's great and redeeming power is virtually limited to saving souls from eternal destruction. In Biblical terms, the priority if God's Kingdom first, and all our acts of mercy and benevolence must be in terms of that grand mission. We are God's servants - we dare not expect God to serve our needs ahead of His Kingdom. It is now difficult for the church to recover the Biblical meaning of words like charity and compassion because post-World War II liberalism has redefined them politically into state welfarism. This redefinition has made charity a political tool to retain social order and made the state the primary agency of compassion. Charity is no longer personal. But Biblical compassion flows from our having first received the grace of God and then manifesting it to others. Therefore, Biblical charity - which is compassion in action - is personal: it begins with God's mercy towards us, and then the people of God give expression to that at an individual level. It is in His service that we understand out calling to charity. In this book, Rushdoony elucidates the Christian's calling to charity and its implications for godly dominion. In an age when Christian action is viewed in political terms, a return to Christian works of compassion and Godly service will help usher in a return of the reign of God as no piece of legislation ever could.

The keystone of Christianity is Jesus's physical, bodily resurrection. Present-day scholars can be significantly challenged as they forage through voluminous documents on the resurrection of Jesus. The literature measures well over seven thousand sources in English-language books alone. This makes finding specific sources that are most relevant for specific scholarly purposes an arduous task. Even when a specific book is relevant, finding the parts of the book that are most relevant to the resurrection rather than other topics often requires additional effort. A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus's Resurrection addresses these challenges in several ways. First, the bibliography organizes more than seven thousand English sources into twelve main categories and then thirty-four subcategories, which are designed to help you find the most relevant literature quickly and efficiently. Embedded are pro and con arguments which support efficient access through brief annotations and then annotate the diversity and complexity of the field of religion by including sources that represent a diverse range of views: theistic (e.g., Christian, Jewish, Muslim, etc.), agnostic, and nontheistic. The objective of this bibliography is to provide convenient access to relevant sources from a variety of perspectives, allowing you to browse or find the one source accurately and with ease.

THE SEVEN FALLS OF SATAN is a detailed Biblical analysis of the Bible's revelation of this being. That he is a created being is clearly shown. His talents, bodily attributes, as well as thought processes were powerful tools at his disposal when used for good. First called Lucifer, Holy Writ is unambiguous with respect to the violence he committed in Heaven. God addresses him with a pre-sentence summation which concludes with a pronouncement of Lucifer's inaccessibility to previously accessible places in Heaven. Almighty God renames Lucifer, before he is cast out and down into the spheres of darkness in the spirit realm. Now called Satan, he sets up a kingdom which is deleterious to the Lord God's creation, including humanity. As an opposer of God and those belonging to God, he utilizes deceit, cunning and violence with reckless abandon. That this Destroyer and his Fallen Angels, will be cast down in defeat to dwell among humanity on earth, before proceeding to their ultimate destiny and final fall in the Lake of Fire with Brimstone, is a sobering Biblical fact stated without contradiction or equivocation. All these factors and more are examined in this book. Including the Most High God provision and solution, enabling those who trust Him by faith and faith alone, to emerge victorious from this war between the kingdom of darkness and the Kingdom of Heaven, also called the Kingdom of God.
