What the real story tells us about loving God and learning from history.
View eBookThis book explores the hitherto neglected relationship between the English Reformation and the Lutheran scholar Philip Melanchthon (1497-1560). By refracting the well known narrative of the English Reformation through the lens of Melanchthon, new light is shed on many events that have puzzled historians. The study provides new perspectives on such questions as why Henry suddenly abandoned his Lutheran policy, why Cromwell fell from power in 1540 and even insights into Elizabeth's personal beliefs.
View eBookThe growth of Protestantism in East Anglian market towns, 1500-1610. Using detailed analysis of four communities, Mildenhall, Bury St Edmunds, Thetford and Hadleigh, John Craig explores the responses and initiatives of these towns to the question of the Reformation in the 16th century. A fascinating picture emerges of the preoccupations and priorities of particular groups. The political goals and consciousness of townsmen and tradesmen are examined, and the problems of analyzing the evidence for ascribing religious motivations to urban factions are highlighted.
View eBookTracing the chaos to cosmos theme from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22, pastor-scholar Sidney Greidanus reveals how God is restoring his creation through Jesus Christ, who has already begun to shine light into the darkness and will one day return to bring peace, order, and restoration once and for all.
View eBookWhat does the Bible teach about sexual relationships between people of the same sex? Does true love require that we accept all forms of sexual expression? In the Bible, God reveals that He created gender, sex, and marriage, and we may not alter them at our will. IT warns that homosexual practice, like any other sin that we cherish, is the pathway to God's judgment. However, the Lord Jesus Christ saves sinners by His Spirit and gives them a new identity, forgiveness, life, and power to live according to His commandments.

View eBookGod made us to enjoy beauty wherever we find it, whether it's music or the visual arts. But sin finds ways to obscure what is right in front of our eyes and ears. Drawing on years of teaching experience, two professors offer tips for understanding, evaluating, and appreciating art in all its forms while highlighting the important ways in which art and music reflect the glory of God. This book will help you better understand and appreciate humanity's pursuit and imitation of beauty through artistic expression -- a vital means by which we bear witness to the beauty of our Creator.
View eBookChristians speak of “being saved,” but all too often don't follow the phrase to its logical reply: “Saved from what?” How do we answer this question when we share the gospel with others? Far from being a matter of semantics, the issue holds critical importance for believers and non-believers alike. Is it really sufficient to say that we are saved from our sins? R. C. Sproul uses Scripture to show that the question, in its most important sense, should be phrased, “Saved from whom?” The answer: God himself. God, in righteous wrath, stands against us in our sin. But the glory of the gospel is that the one from whom we need to be saved is the very one who saves us. It is when we truly grasp the significance of Christ's redeeming work that we begin to understand the serious demands and joys of repentance.
View eBookTraces the history of western philosophy from the ancient Greek thinkers through the beliefs and ideas of twentieth-century scholars such as Immanuel Kant and examines the consequences these ideas have had on world events, theology, the arts, and culture.
View eBookGenerally speaking, students, theologians, pastors, and church leaders are well-trained in the task of biblical exegesis. Where many fall short, however, is in the area of cultural exegesis--reading and interpreting the texts and trends produced by our culture, which can have a profound influence on the way we understand the world and practice our faith. Anyone interested in the intersection of Christianity and culture needs to be able to do "everyday theology," that is, to think theologically about our cultural environment and pass it through the grid of Scripture, in order to respond faithfully as Christian disciples.
View eBook"Our Lord's emotions is a subject that Christians have often neglected, and in doing so have deprived themselves of a vital element in the gospel. Our Lord was truly human. He became like us, sin apart. Warfield demonstrates that Christ was a man who expressed not just compassion but also anger. He was a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief, and yet a man of joy. He was sometimes amazed; at times, he felt shame. Warfield teaches readers how to read the Gospels properly, to see that Jesus-in his full divinity and full humanity-is central to every story"
