Book Description
Images connected to money are found frequently in the Bible and in the hymns and songs Christians sing. The ideas of ransom, redemption, and forgiveness are a key part of how the work of Jesus on the cross is described. But what do the pictures of ransom, redemption, and forgiveness actually mean? How would they have been understood by the first hearers of the gospel? How do they link to kidnapping, slavery, and debt? Using practical examples from his experience as a banking lawyer and from history, David McIlroy shows how power, money, and sin combine to trap us, leaving us in desperate need of a redeemer to rescue us. This book will deepen your understanding of Jesus’s death, enrich your worship, and inspire you to share and demonstrate the transformative power of the salvation achieved through the cross and resurrection.

Book Description
The End of Law applies Augustine’s questions to modern legal philosophy as well as offering a critical theory of natural law that draws on Augustine’s ideas. McIlroy argues that such a critical natural law theory is: realistic but not cynical about law’s relationship to justice and to violence, can diagnose ways in which law becomes deformed and pathological, and indicates that law is a necessary but insufficient instrument for the pursuit of justice. Positioning an examination of Augustine’s reflections on law in the context of his broader thought, McIlroy presents an alternative approach to natural law theory, drawing from critical theory, postmodern thought, and political theologies in conversation with Augustine.

Book Description
"This is a remarkable story of God delivering a man out of a horrible pit (and the clutches of death) and setting his feet on a rock (Jesus). His subsequent life experiences could be the plot of an exciting movie. His eventual knowledge of and walk with God has brought Praise to his God and caused many to trust in the Lord. Stewart shares important information toward the end of the book on major depression and suicide which will be helpful to many. Depression affects about 19 million Americans every year. I highly recommend this book." - George A. Hurst M. D., F.A.C.F. Director Emeritus The University of Texas Health Center at Tyler. "In answer to a feeble prayer, "God, forgive me," Stewart Whittemore was snatched out of the jaws of death. I have seen the impact this "Ransomed" one's testimony has made on others - here and abroad - who suffer from oppression." - Chris Josephson, Editor, Bible Light Publications-Ottawa, Kansas "Ransomed... is the compelling account of how a loving Father (God) rescues one man from the depths of overwhelming despair. You too like me will be overwhelmed as you witness a compassionate Father reconstruct, transform and restore this once physically, emotionally and spiritually shattered life. To God be the glory!" - Pastor Philip L Did-Dell, Richmond, Nelson. New Zealand.

Book Description
Discover the truth about sin every Christian must know. If you think you understand sin, think again. RANSOM: The High Cost of Sin from Dean H. Harvey reframes this most important Christian concept for an eye-opening book that will change your relationship with God. Built on solid Scripture, Ransom shows how our self-centered focus on big sins-how they affect us in the here and now-is fundamentally misplaced. Rather, Harvey explains how the primary consequence of sin is to God-in the form of a broken heart. The secondary cost of sin is to the sinner-in his current life and the one to come. Third in line are those around us, who are all affected by our sins in some way. And finally, the highest cost of sin is that it emptied Heaven of its best to provide a ransom on the cross-in order to bring "so great salvation to all sinners who would repent and turn from sin. Straightforward and easy to understand, Ransom is a must read for anyone looking to more fully understand the bible and its remarkable insight for living a Christian life. "The author admonishes the reader to live each day to bring joy, and not grief, to the heart of God, who loves us and gave Himself for a sin-offering as a fulfillment of the Old Testament sacrifices." -George (Jed) Smock, Campus Ministries USA "It is my humble opinion that there is a high cost that comes with failing to understand the powerful truth contained in the pages of this book." -Michail E. Wolfe, President of Common Clay Ministries, Inc.: And Director of Ambassador Training International _____________________________________________________________________________ Dean Harvey was in full-time ministry for 37 years before retiring. Harvey, a Navy veteran, lives with his wife Shirley in Palm Desert, California.

Book Description
Is there a difference between the Old and New Covenants? As believers, should we follow Jewish laws and customs? Why don't we sacrifice animals when God commanded it? These are valid questions many Christians ask. To gain understanding, we must look at it in light of who Jesus is and what He did. This is because Jesus changed everything! The entire Old Testament spoke of and looked forward to the time of Christ. He is the subject of the redemptive theme running throughout the entire Bible, it has always been about Him. The book of Hebrews is the story of Jesus; now that He has come, we can appreciate life in a new and wonderful way.His short time on this earth changed the course of history forever. His entrance into humanity was the pinnacle of the ages. He came to show us God in a living and breathing way; a way we had not previously understood. God's entire nature was made manifest and revealed in the person of Jesus Christ. Understanding the book of Hebrews, God's marvelous story of redemption, will change your perspective in so many ways. It will answer some of the big questions about God that Christians ask. It will reconcile the differences in the covenants and give you a clear and true picture of God and what it means to be redeemed.

Book Description
What does the Bible say about forgiveness? It is a major subject in Scripture, but it has been strangely overlooked by biblical scholars. Forgiveness is the amazing way that alienation can be healed and guilt assuaged, and there is an extensive literature on the subject, written largely by psychologists, pastoral counselors, and philosophers, but until now anyone searching those many books for a thorough treatment of the Bible's message would have been frustrated. Now in a clear and concise form, Donald E. Gowan has offered a survey of all that the Bible says about this crucial subject-from Genesis to Revelation.
