It takes courage to walk out our faith. Courage to stand for what we believe. To set our standards on Biblical truth, not cultural trends. To pursue a life defined by integrity and character. And we find no greater profile in courage than in the life of Christ. This study follows our Savior as he faced opposition, challenged critics, and courageously chose to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Pensiamo di conoscere a perfezione le parabole e il loro significato; tutti noi, sin da piccoli, le abbiamo ascoltate alla Santa Messa, lette sui libri...

"Hope is not a sedative; it is a shot of adrenaline, a blood transfusion." Through clever word pictures like this, best-selling author and former pastor Warren Wiersbe preaches the same message Peter preached so long ago. Turning each enlightening page, believers gain increasing confidence in true Hope, a God in whom they don't just wish for eternal life. In Scripture, hope means the promise of salvation for those who have accepted Him and His Son's death and resurrection.

Tree of Life: Incarnation, Passion & Glory, Saint Bonaventure on the Christ Story. This is Saint Bonaventure's 13th Century collection of fifty meditations on the Incarnation, Passion, and Glory of Jesus Christ. Following the 1978 translation by Dr. Ewert Cousins, parish priest and spiritual director Stephen Joseph Wolf offers a paraphrase with brush-ink drawings.

This book is an exploration that questions centuries-old beliefs about Jesus as the prophesied Messiah. Through a careful examination, The Messianic Mirage exposes the ways in which New Testament authors may have misinterpreted or selectively applied these ancient texts, leading to a narrative that has profoundly shaped Christian doctrine and the world. The book brings together historical, linguistic, and theological insights to challenge the conventional understanding of these prophecies.

What was the apostle Paul's relationship to Judaism? How did he view the Jewish law? How did he understand the gospel of Jesus's messiahship relative to both ethnic Jews and gentiles? These remain perennial questions both to New Testament scholars and to all serious Bible readers. Respected New Testament scholar Matthew Thiessen offers an important contribution to this discussion. A Jewish Paul is an accessible introduction that situates Paul clearly within first-century Judaism, not opposed to it.

The Word was made flesh and dwelt among men in the person of Jesus Christ. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God. The Logos, resisted and rejected as reason, as general revelation, and as special (redemptive) revelation, comes once more to man and is crucified. He came to accomplish redemption and now rules to apply redemption. Jesus came as Messiah, full of grace and truth. It is by His life and death that this grace and truth come.

For many Christians, the book of Revelation inspires confusion and fear. It's seen as a coded screenplay for the end times, or it's just too strange to understand. The problem, Dean Flemming contends, is that when we read Revelation as focused on the future, we miss what it says about what God is doing in the world now. Revelation is one of the richest texts in Scripture for understanding both God's mission to make everything new and how the church is caught up in that mission.

The letters of 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus were written by Paul to trusted coworkers toward the end of his apostolic ministry. As Paul’s delegates, they were to teach and defend the truth, model godly living, and ensure that godly church leadership was in place. But these letters are more than just a how-to guide for ministry.

Hoping in the LORD (Vol. 3 of General Counsel Series) draws upon high points of the Bible—from Matthew to John–to teach us how Jesus carries us to the Promised Land.

Prominent recent studies elevate the themes of "Christoformity" and "Cruciformity" in Paul, but few sufficiently account for how a believer is actually transformed into the image of Christ. Pneumaformity fills the gap in Pauline studies by surveying Paul's letters for teachings on the Spirit's agency in the life of God' people. This study aptly demonstrates that the Holy Spirit is the instrument through whom such radical living is possible.

God has provided salvation, but when does it begin? What is required of us? Can we lose it? These and other disputed questions have divided Christians for centuries. Matthew W. Bates has already shown that the gospel is about King Jesus and that faith includes allegiance. In Beyond the Salvation Wars, he unpacks additional truths from the Bible and the early church to describe how salvation happens.

Viele Christen beobachteten Saulus' Einzug in die Stadt. Lange vor seinem Eintreffen hatten die Gerüchte über seine Christenjagd die Bewohner erreicht. Auch Rahil, eine Ehefrau und zweifache Mutter, blickte voller Sorge Saulus und seinem bewaffneten Trupp nach. Sie zog sich leise in eine Gasse zurück, dann rannte sie nur noch.

Glaube mir. Jene, die am meisten lernen müssen, werden oft zu den besten Lehrern. Viele Jahre ließ ich mich vom Hass führen. Und auch, als ich zum richtigen Glauben fand, irrte ich lange Zeit ahnungslos umher. Doch der Herr hält immer die Hand nach uns ausgestreckt, damit wir wieder zu ihm finden. Beginne, an Gottes Liebe zu glauben, und du wirst anfangen, sie überall zu sehen.

The Mentoring Project’s flagship mentoring resource is its field guides. These long-form pieces provide practical guidance on various aspects of life as a Christian, like finances, purity, technology, work, and more.

Hör mich an, wenn ich dir sage,. dass sich in Jerusalem eine große Finsternis zusammenbraut. Eine Dunkelheit, die dich und alles,. was du je gesagt hast, verschlingen will.

The ancient Mediterranean teemed with gods. For centuries, a practical religious pluralism prevailed. How, then, did one particular god come to dominate the politics and piety of the late Roman Empire? In Ancient Christianities, Paula Fredriksen traces the evolution of early Christianity—or rather, of early Christianities—through five centuries of Empire, mapping its pathways from the hills of Judea to the halls of Rome and Constantinople.

Апокалипсис всегда — это возможность прочитать текст Нового завета с точки зрения психологии, нейропсихологии, религиоведения, антропологии, политологии и не потерять при этом традиции. Сегодня есть две крайности: одна — это полностью сакрализировать текст, окружить его туманом непонятности, мистичности и догматизма; другая, наоборот, — полностью разоблачить текст, выплеснув с водой ребенка, обесценить, показать, что все, что написано — это не более чем чьи‑то досужие выдумки.

"The ministry of the Holy Spirit is not a luxury; it is an absolute necessity," writes celebrated author and respected pastor Warren Wiersbe. In his first of two books covering Acts, Be Dynamic focuses on Peter's ministry, mostly in Israel and centered in Jerusalem. Through explaining Luke's record of the Gospel's advancement and church expansion, Wiersbe opens the door to understanding the work of the church today.
