Did Jesus Christ really rise from the grave? The credibility of the Christian faith rests on this claim, and Jesus’ own disciples laid down their lives to defend it. However, the resurrection of Christ is often dismissed as fantasy by those who assume that miracles are a scientific impossibility. Is faith in the empty tomb nothing more than blind belief In Alive: How the Resurrection of Christ Changes Everything, Dr. Gabe Fluhrer demonstrates that Jesus’ defeat of the grave is no mere myth - it is a historic reality supported by overwhelming evidence.

The claim “I speak for God” has become one of the most dangerous distortions within portions of the modern Charismatic and prophetic movement. While Scripture clearly teaches that the Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts—including prophecy, exhortation, and words of encouragement—the Bible never authorizes modern believers to place their own words on the same level as the infallible voice of God. When individuals declare that their personal impressions, visions, or predictions are the direct speech of God, they step into territory the Scriptures treat with the utmost seriousness and ...

The "death" spoken of in Genesis 3:3 was clearly not death as we know the word today. Adam and Eve went on to live for another 930 years and started the human race, so evidently, the death spoken of here was referring to spiritual death, what most Christians like to refer to today as "separation from God".

Current church planting, growth, and development strategies cannot be sustained. We need to work smarter in our rapidly changing world. We must become disruptive. And yet we typically hesitate to embrace change. We like our traditions. We prefer our familiar patterns and comfortable ruts. Still...

In EJ Waggoner's sweeping overview of the history of God's people, God reveals as far back as the Old Testament the same gospel which Christians believe today. From Abraham to today's listener, all who believe are under the everlasting covenant. The author had a vision of "Christ crucified... and to me was revealed for the first time in my life the fact that God loved me, and that Christ gave Himself for me personally. It was all for me." According to Waggoner, one line runs through the Bible - God's everlasting covenant.

The greatest sermon ever preached wasn’t delivered in a stadium. It wasn’t broadcast to millions. It was spoken on a quiet mountainside to a handful of ordinary people—yet it changed the world. The Beatitudes are more than poetry; they are a blueprint for a life of deep joy, resilience, and purpose. But in an age of self-promotion, conflict, and uncertainty, do they still matter? This book takes Jesus’s revolutionary teachings and makes them accessible for today’s world. It strips away the clichés and gets to the heart of what it really means to be blessed. What if true happiness...

Do you find yourself living in regret and fear more than in today’s reality? God calls us to serve Him in the current moment rather than worry about the past or the future. In He Walks with Me, Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe explores the I AM statements of God—from His burning-bush conversation with Moses, to His powerful reassurances to the Israelites, to Jesus’s startling claims to be the Light of the World, the Good Shepherd, and the True Vine.

Recent days have seen a debate among evangelicals over how the death of Christ is to be interpreted. When a popular British evangelical leader appeared to denounce the idea that God was punishing Christ in our place on the cross as a "twisted version of events," "morally dubious," and a "huge...

The most influential ideas in Christian history often hide in plain sight. The Logos—the Divine Word whispered in the opening lines of John’s Gospel—has shaped theology, ethics, worship, and the very understanding of God for two thousand years. Yet for most readers, the Logos remains an abstract concept, distant and unexplored. This book changes that. It makes the Logos vivid, accessible, and essential—showing why this ancient truth still speaks with power today. Readers will discover how the Divine Word stands at the center of creation, revelation, and salvation. They’ll see why ...

Christology of the Coptic Orthodox Church has been shaped and developed by a long-standing tradition based on the biblical truth. This book aims to track the development of Coptic Christology throughout the centuries. To do so, we shall attempt to evaluate ‘the Coptic’ or the Alexandrian view towards Christology in the past and today by discussing the theology of the School of Alexandria, various historical accounts, and finally modern theology and practices. The Coptic Church believes that Christ’s humanity has never been alone; there was no time lapse in realizing this unity. Our ...

WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL GOSPEL OF THE FIRST CHRISTIANS? IT WAS NOT JESUS IS GOD, THE SECOND PERSON OF THE TRINITY. Kermit Zarley’s The Gospel Corrupted: When Jesus Was Made God is a 100-page, easy-to-read primer for his magnum opus The Restitution: Biblical Proof Jesus Is NOT God (568 pp.). In this little book, he focuses on the gospel, the “good news” of the early Christians as it is related in the New Testament. He shows that later church fathers were influenced by Greek philosophy in changing their original gospel by abandoning Jewish monotheism and falsely asserting that Jesus is ...

Deftly guiding listeners through “the four,” Peter Leithart delves into both the unique perspective of each gospel and their unifying witness to Jesus. The gospels are riddled with themes and types; Leithart reveals them and explains the Old Testament prophecies that intertwine with these apostolic books, as well as their underlying literary structures. He discusses the dating of the books, showing how the timeline of the four gospels lace together, and lays out Israel's history leading up to John the Baptist's birth.

Looking Upon Him Who Was Pierced invites readers to see the Bible in a way most have never noticed before. What if the central moment of history—the piercing of Jesus’s side at the cross—was not only the climax of the Gospel story, but a pattern embedded throughout the entire Bible? In this thought-provoking exploration, Cameron Fultz traces striking connections between the crucifixion of Christ and events scattered across Israel’s history. From Joshua crossing the Jordan, to the tragic end of King Saul, to the dramatic ministry of Elijah, the Scriptures reveal recurring patterns ...

Penal substitutionary atonement—the belief that Jesus’s death on the cross satisfied God’s wrath against sin—is central to the Christian faith, but frequently debated. Is it just to punish an innocent person in place of the guilty? How can the temporary death of one substitute for the eternal death of many? Why doesn’t the cross grant Christians unlimited permission to sin? In this famous essay, late theologian J. I. Packer analyzes Scripture and the works of early Reformers to defend the truth of Christ’s substitutionary suffering and death, the heart of the Christian gospel.

How does Jesus, through his life and death, save us? How do our beliefs about this affect our Christian walk and worldview? How does the Atonement reveal the character of God? These are some of the questions that are raised and answered in this book. What we believe about the meaning of Jesus' death matters, because of how it affects our views about God and the Christian life. You may be surprised to learn that the meaning of Jesus’ death as taught by many Christians is a fairly modern development in church history.

Each Christmas, adults and children alike delight at the story of the kings from the East who followed the star to Bethlehem to offer gifts to the newborn Christ. While this familiar tale is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, another little-known version later emerged that claimed to be the eyewitness account of the wise men. This ancient manuscript has lain hidden for centuries in the vaults of the Vatican Library, but through the determined persistence of a young scholar, Brent Landau, this astonishing discovery has been translated into English for the very first time as the Revelation of the Magi.
