Book Description
A scientist and former evangelical argues that holding onto a belief in a literal, historical Adam has forced many Christians to reject science and become intellectually isolated from the modern world. The Bible’s first man stands at the center of a crisis that is shaking much of Christianity. In the evangelical world, scholars have been ostracized and banished from their academic communities for endorsing a modern scientific understanding of the world, even as they remained strong Christians. Self-appointed gatekeepers of traditional theology demand intellectual allegiance to an implausible interpretation of the Genesis creation story, insisting that all humanity must be descended from a single, perfect human pair, Adam and Eve. Such a view is utterly at odds with contemporary science. It wasn’t always this way. Karl Giberson spotlights the venerable tradition of Christian engagement with new knowledge and discoveries. When global exploration, anthropology, geology, paleontology, biblical studies, and even linguistics cast doubt on the historicity of Adam and his literal fall into sin, Christians responded by creatively reimagining the creation story, letting Adam “evolve” to accommodate his changing context. Even conservative evangelical institutions until recently encouraged serious engagement with evolutionary science, unhindered by the straitjacket of young-earth creationism, intelligent design, or other views demanding that Adam be a historical figure. Giberson calls for a renewed conversation between science and Christianity, and for more open engagement with new scientific discoveries, even when they threaten central doctrines. Christians should not be made to choose between their faith and their understanding of the universe. Instead, as Giberson argues, they should follow in the once robust tradition of exploring science openly within the broad contours of Christian belief.

Book Description
This is a heart-level conversation with you, the reader. Every excuse, reason, and roadblock for not coming to Christ is examined and duly dealt with. If you think you may be too bad, or if perhaps you really are bad and you sin either openly or behind closed doors, you will discover that life in Christ is for you too. You can reject the message of salvation by faith, or you can choose to live a life of sin after professing faith in Christ, but you cannot change the truth as it is, either for yourself or for others. As such, it behooves you and your family to embrace truth, claim it for your own, and be genuinely set free for now and eternity. Come, and embrace this free gift of God, and live a victorious life for Him.

Book Description
On January 1st 2016, author Jerry Hyde - ‘the most dangerous therapist in the world’ - set out on a year-long adventure into the murky underworld of Sin with one objective in mind…to save the world. Join Hyde on an exhilarating journey through hope, despair, love and loss made all the more twisted by daily microdoses of psilocybin mushrooms. Listen in on conversations with such disparate and at times desperate characters as national treasure Grayson Perry, tantric chieftain Shivam O’Brien, Mem the Mad Sufi and LSD blotter designer Kevin Barron. The Book of Sin is not a self-help book. It’s a do-it-yourself-help book. Read on if you want a better understanding of how to live life by your own rules, and how to make the world a better, safer, richer and more peaceful place.

Book Description
The Law, as the first covenant that God gave to the Israelites, is the covenant of God that never be able to condemn. However, the deeds by the Law as the deeds of the flesh performed by the Law is to commit sin. Because through the mind of the flesh that the devil deceives, we are not able to serve God, who is spirit. Due to the sin of Adam and Eve that they followed the serpent as the devil instead of the will of God in the Eden Garden, their spirit and even their offspring’s spirit had died to God. In this way the human being have been born as sinners with the original sin, having a spirit that is dead to God. So that the human being have been living with their mind of the flesh and a spirit that is dead to God. Thus, human being have not been able to serve God, who is spirit. To save the Israelites who become such sinners, first off God gave them the Law as the first covenant, and made the Israelites live to keep the Law through their mind of the flesh, because they have a spirit that is dead to God. This period is the age of the Law and the age of the First Covenant, that the Israelites of the Old Testament era had been living. By the way to the Israelites who had been serving idols through their minds of the flesh in the world of the darkness, God gave the Law to them and made them keep the Law through the mind of the flesh. In this way God gave them the age of the Law as the training period and disciplining period that let them to get off their idols and to serve God through the Law. However, because the deeds by the Law is to commit sin, the Israelites was not able to serve God. Therefore, God gave the gospel as the new covenant that becomes the way to be saved spiritually to them in order to let them believe it and live the spiritual life. However, the Jews, who are the descendants of the Israelites, still adhere strictly to the Law of Moses to this day, claiming that they alone are the children saved of God, and rejecting the spiritual gospel. Nevertheless, God made the apostles preach the spiritual gospel, so that the people who was saved through this gospel built the early church to serve God spiritually. Moreover, God made the children saved of the early church live a spiritual life among the sinners in the world, performing by the spiritual deeds according to the spiritual gospel. By the way since the apostles, the forebears were not aware spiritually of the spiritual gospel that the apostles were aware of spiritually, thus, the forebears were not born again from their spirits that were dead to God. And they were living customarily according to their deeds by the Law through their mind of the flesh. Thus, they preached the spiritual gospel through the deeds of the flesh performed by the Law, instead of the spiritual gospel which the apostles had preached through their spirits born again, Therefore, even the churches today that claim to preach the spiritual gospel, known as the Reformed Churches, have not fulfilled the spiritual salvation. Because to serve God, they have believed and followed the spiritual gospel as the new covenant through their mind of the flesh, but not their spirit born again. In another words, if the Reformed Churches perform the gospel of the salvation through the deeds of the flesh, but not the spiritual deeds, God is not able to listen from them. Thus, they are not able to be saved from their original sin, so that they become to live as the sinners with the original sin. It means that because they are not aware spiritually concerning the faith by the mind of the flesh and the faith by the spirit born again, also concerning the mind of the flesh and the spiritual mind by the spirit born again, they are living with the deeds by the Law through the mind of the flesh deceiving by the devil, but not the spirit born again. These spiritual matters of God can only be aware through the evidence of spiritual faith, as mentioned in Hebrews 11, rather than through judgment based on the mind of the flesh and the sight of the flesh. When we are aware spiritually of these spiritual matters through faith given by God, we become to be born again as the righteous from the spirit that had died to God due to Adam’s sin. And we become to receive the Counselor as the Spirit promised into our temple of the hearts as our spirit born again, then we become to fulfill our salvation. Therefore, we who have been saved become to live the spiritual life and worship God, according to the leading by the Jesus being with each of our Counselors. In this way we as the children saved of God become to live the spiritual life in the world of the darkness until the Second Coming of Jesus. And after the Judgment, we will lift up into the Kingdom of God for our eternal life with the disembodied spirit due to the death with the flesh by the Judgment. Concerning such spiritual process of the salvation mentioned above, when you are aware spiritually of the spiritual words of God as follows, that I, as the author of this book interpreted the spiritual gospel given by the new covenant, you will be performing the way to be saved spiritually. This book 「the way to be saved spiritually」 is the book to introduce 「those books with spiritual interpretation」 as follows that I wrote for the gospel of the New Testament that God gave as the new covenant.

Book Description
A comprehensive, dynamic, and eminently practical presentation of the biblical teaching on salvation. In discussing the facets of the working out of salvation -- the role of the Spirit, union with Christ, the gospel call, regeneration, conversion, repentance, and so on -- Hoekema does away with the classical ordo salutis ("order of salvation") by viewing these facets largely as simultaneous aspects in the process of salvation rather than sequential steps on the way to salvation.
