Unholy Dilemma 2, a search for logic in the New Testament, was not written to either bolster or undermine one’s faith. Nor is it intended to trash the Bible per se. In fact, neither this book, nor Unholy Dilemma, is exclusively intended for Christian listeners. The Bible is a book like any other book, i.e., a set number of handwritten or printed pages, sewn, stapled, or glued together on one side and bound in a protective cover. The word “Bible” comes from the Greek word biblia, which means “book.”

While arguing with the Jewish religious leaders, Jesus said, “You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is these that bear witness of Me; . . .” In this book we will examine the Tanakh in order to assess the validity of Jesus’ claim. Hesed Volume One is the first book in a four volume series written for Jewish people who want to know the truth about Jesus.

The Book of the Bee is one of the most remarkable theological and historiographical works to survive from the medieval Church of the East. Written around 1222 by Solomon of Akhlat, Bishop of Basra, this Syriac masterpiece gathers centuries of inherited tradition, scriptural interpretation, apocryphal memory, and ecclesiastical history into a single, luminous volume. Drawing from ancient teachers, biblical commentary, and the living oral tradition of his Church, Solomon offers a work at once devotional, instructional, and cosmic in scope.

How can we persevere through persecution? First-century Christians wrestled with this question. They were often harassed, slandered, beaten, and ostracized for their faith. As they endured these difficult circumstances, we can imagine their joy upon receiving two encouraging letters from the Apostle Peter. No stranger to suffering, Peter likely penned these letters while in a Roman prison just before his martyrdom. In this volume, Dr. R.C. Sproul takes us through Peter’s epistles line by line.

The third book in the Old Testament, and the Torah is the Book of Leviticus. Some have also called it the Third Book of Moses. Leviticus details ritual, legal, and moral practices God instructs the Israelites to follow. Although the content is distant from modern life, it offers insights into ancient Israelite culture and religious life. It provides a glimpse into how the people connected with God through their rituals and sacrifices.

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.

Evidence for the Bible is the first volume in the Consider Christianity series, written by Elgin Hushbeck, Jr. It discusses the evidence for the inspiration and reliability of the Bible and deals with objections.

This book is based on the Psalms which is one of the most well-known parts of the Bible. It is formed of a number of weekly studies from March 2020 at the beginning of lockdown, to strengthen, encourage and bless those receiving the studies in their Christian faith during that time. The studies continue and there is more to come!

Most Christians have never been challenged to grow up because the institutional church is a religion and not the family of God. Most of what is taught about the Bible is taught out of context and the false prophets are multiplying. When will we stop playing church and become the body of Christ that the Father ordained us to be? Who are you and why are you here? This book will challenge you to give up your religion for a true relationship with the God and Father of our Lord Jesus.

The three letters of John found near the end of the New Testament have a tendency to be oversimplified or simply overlooked in the study of the Scriptures. However, though these letters may on the surface seem less applicable to our time because they address heresies and church management issues that seem unique to the early church, careful study reveals just how contemporary these concerns are. In this volume of James Montgomery Boice’s popular commentary series, pastors, Bible students, and laypersons will find analysis of John’s timeless messages of righteousness, truth, and love.

God speaks to us through the Bible. That book embodies his words. Creation itself is the visible embodiment of his power and wisdom. It is the result of his words. This book of his is, in a different way, the effect of his speaking. It is his written wisdom and power. There is his voice to us. The thunder and tempest are his loud voice of grandeur. The sunshine and the gentle breeze are his still small voice. But deeper, clearer, keener, softer, and still more penetrating than all of these is his written word to us.

This thoroughly enjoyable new commentary, The Pillar of the Truth, gives background for the three letters, brings out parallels between the Apostolic age and Israel's time in the wilderness, and, in step-by-step fashion, shows how the Apostle Paul was preparing the nascent Church for institutionalization.

One reason the Bible has endured for millennia is its ability to reach our common humanness and give uplifting insights about struggle, resilience, and hope. Intertwining academic knowledge and candid, personal, and sometimes humorous stories, Julie Faith Parker helps listeners engage biblical texts with both mind and heart—to learn the Bible's stories, explore theological ideas, question common assumptions, develop interpretive skills, and grow in their own faith.

Christian speaker and Bible teacher Wade Joye pushes back against the dominant self-help teaching of the day—to follow your dreams—and encourages us to let go and surrender our lives to God in order to truly live. “Follow your dreams” is the self-help message of our day. In our schools...

How do you eliminate a half trillion annual expense in the US alone? How do you prevent capital offenses in the first place? God has the solution: we just don't like key parts of it. We shoot ourselves in the foot in order to think of ourselves as dignified and compassionate. Yet the responsibility of public stoning (with the rest of the Biblical model) is more dignified and compassionate than any alternative. Death is the most severe court judgment in the full range of Biblical justice tools, and so it deserves primary investigation.

We tend to think of the Holy Spirit as the straggler of the Trinity, a latecomer in God's interaction with the world. But our first introduction to the Holy Spirit is not the drama of Pentecost in the second chapter of Acts. We first meet the Holy Spirit in the second verse of the Bible, hovering there, speaking the world into existence. Christopher Wright begins here and traces the Holy Spirit through the pages of the Old Testament.
