Book Description
The fellowship of the mystery What is it that keeps a church that is wrong in some area from getting right? Look at the verses above for the answer. Paul (the Apostle of the Gentiles Romans 11:13) beseeches (Pleads) Christians to all walk worthy of the vocation wherewith we are called, and most are not, or we would not have this division in the body of Christ. The problem with churches (groups of saved individuals), and individual believers that are wrong multiplies day after day by their not walking worthy of the vocation wherewith they are called, by following verses two and three. They do not practice humility (Lowliness) in regards to the very thing that is causing the division in the first place. They are not longsuffering with fellow brothers and sisters in attempts to come to a knowledge of the truth. 1st Timothy 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. What truth? The Truth. The truth that produces that unity of the Spirit mentioned above. The truth Paul mentions here is the subject of this book. Truths that are described as mysteries that were formerly kept hid in God before the world began, but now are made manifest. The Fellowship of the Mystery Ephesians 3:9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: Many friends, and total strangers who humbled themselves and have given me and many others their ears for a few hours (after they were able to turn off their Cell Phone) have almost all said, "I cannot unsee what I have seen." Having come to the knowledge of the truth revealed to the Apostle Paul by the risen Christ, they cannot go back to the division they were once a large part of. The mystery is no longer a mystery anymore. Others, unfortunately, have refused to humble themselves to believe that they could be confused about somethings, even when they know they don't "have all the answers", and they one day become sad statistics by being what Paul spoke about in his final Prison Epistle: 2nd Timothy 3:7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. They instead puff up their chest (PRIDE) at fellow believers in Christ, they drawl battle lines in the sand, and they refuse to consider that they, or their "Camp/Denomination could be a part of the many who are causing this division in the body of Christ. Will you, in with all lowliness, while reading this book, pray that if you have anything wrong in your theology that God did not planted there, ask him to root that doctrine of devils up and replaced with the knowledge of the truth? Then you will be able to walk worthy of the vocation wherewith you are called, as you come unto a knowledge of the truth. Once you see, what religion has kept you from seeing, you will never be able to unsee it. Then you will also be fellowshipping in the mystery that was once a mystery to you. The mystery that Satan wants to keep a mystery, is you coming unto a knowledge of the truth concerning the mysteries revealed to the Apostle Paul. Satan wreaks havoc in Churches and individuals lives and ministries by keeping God's saints ignorant of the truths that are for today. If you get a computer, or a cell phone, and you never get the updates, your phone will not produce for you what its creator made the updates for. Many Christians, Camps, Denominations operate under the Law and Grace today to one degree or another, and they pick and choose which things they like from both dispensations while ignoring others. We need to practice what our Apostle taught us in his last epistle as we study scripture: 2nd Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Book Description
Believers know that when we die we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won't it get boring at some point? According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God's glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time. The mysteries of providence, the hidden movements of God throughout history, and the forgotten and unnoted works of even the most obscure of God's people will be unveiled so that we can see how wise, loving, gracious, and powerful our God is. And though we will experience perfection in heaven, we will never be omniscient, which means we will always be learning more about God's glory, inspiring us to return joyful praise and thanksgiving. If your vision of heaven has been limited to clouds and harps and angels, it's time to expand that view with the truth found in this biblically based look at the afterlife.

Book Description
Recent years have seen much controversy regarding a unified Christian doctrine of hell: Do we go to heaven or hell when we die? Or do we cease to exist? Are believers and unbelievers ultimately saved by grace in the end? By focusing on recent theological arguments, Four Views on Hell: Second Edition highlights why the church still needs to wrestle with the doctrine of hell. In the fair-minded and engaging Counterpoints format, four leading scholars introduce us to the current views on eternal judgment, with particular attention given to the new voices that have entered the debate. Contributors and views include: Denny Burk – representing a principle of Eternal Conscious Torment John Stackhouse – representing a principle of Annihilationism (Conditional Immortality) Robin Parry – representing a principle of Universalism (Ultimate Reconciliation) Jerry Walls – representing a principle of Purgatory Preston Sprinkle concludes the discussion by evaluating each view, noting significant points of exchange between the essayists. The interactive nature of the volume allows the reader to reflect on the strengths and weaknesses of each view and come to an informed conclusion. BONUS CONTENT: Includes entire first edition of Four Views on Hell to help readers grasp the history of the discussion and how it has developed over the last twenty years.
