Book Description
For 2000 years, debate has raged - who is Jesus Christ? Is he a great teacher or is he God? Is there even a reason to believe in God in our modern scientific world? In the past decade, the war on Belief has become more vocal with the rise of 'New Atheism' advocates like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris and the late Christopher Hitchens. Throw in media favorites like John Spong, Karen Armstrong or Lloyd Geering, and you'd be forgiven for thinking the atheists had won, the debate was over. Except for one thing. The atheists got it wrong. Investigative journalist Ian Wishart decided to put the best arguments against Christianity to the test. What he found will stun you. None of the most quoted evidence against Jesus Christ or the existence of God stands up to close scrutiny. Whether you're a Christian or not, your questions, and the answers, are here. "One of the best Christian apologetic books I have read" - The NZ Catholic "He takes the "inaccuracies" of Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris, Spong and others and pulls them apart, looking deep into the facts and issues around them and explaining with clarity the real story that is behind them. The second half of the book deals much more specifically with the Biblical claims (the existence of Christ, His resurrection, miracles and prophecy are all included)" - The Bible Geek

Book Description
Intimacy with God. It has always been the heart cry of true believers. But, as in any love relationship, intimacy can become strained, fellowship broken.Caught in the Crossfire holds up a mirror to the deceptiveness of the human heart and challenges readers to make choices of obedience in order to bring freedom and restore intimacy.Pardoxically, it is through the pain of conviction and the struggle to positively respond (crossfire in the soul) that renewal comes.

Book Description
"Christian warfare is different from any fight you will be in. The adversary can take an ordinary situation and flip your world into an intense spiritual combat zone that can make you question your faith. Encounter with crossfire can be deadly, so don't try to fix the matter yourself, this fight has been won through Jesus Christ the author and finisher of our faith. He is the only one who can help us to survive through the forces of CROSSFIRE." Lady Sheila Taylor is a native of Washington, D.C. She is an alumnus of Andersonville Theological Seminary where she earned a B.S. degree in Christian Education and an Associates in Biblical Studies. She dedicated her life to the Lord in July 1976. She was called into ministry in 1985 and licensed as an Evangelist Missionary in the Church of God in Christ in 1988.

Book Description
Brother Andrew's ministry began with smuggling Bibles behind the Iron Curtain. His phenomenally successful book God's Smuggler was born from that mission. But as communism in Eastern Europe declined, Brother Andrew shifted his focus to strengthening the Christian church within the Islamic world. In a time when a mass exodus of Christians has drained the Middle East of God's light, Brother Andrew headed into this war-torn land to bring hope and encouragement to those who remained. Light Force recounts the continuing saga of Brother Andrew's most recent mission. Through dramatic true stories, readers get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at real people affected by the centuries-old conflicts in this volatile part of the world. Now readers can join Brother Andrew and fellow Open Doors missionary Al Janssen in their quest to strengthen God's light in the Middle East. These gripping accounts of Christians caught in the crossfire will captivate readers everywhere.

Book Description
In this compelling real life drama, author Christa Sherman shares the details of her terrifying experience of coming face to face with demons. Each encounter was clearly and attempt by Satan to bring Christa to submission using intimidation and fear. It didn't work! Instead, Christa humbly called on God to make himself both Lord and Savior of her life. Because of these experiences, she now understands all too well the reality of both God and Satan and of heaven and hell. She wants you to know the same.

Book Description
This book is a plea for a constructive liberal/conservative dialogue by demonstrating what such an exchange could be like. Assuming that liberal and conservative Christians are abysmally ignorant about each other, that each has a great deal to learn from the other, and that dialogue between the two will strengthen them individually, Clark Pinnock concludes that the renewed vitality of Christianity in today's world hinges in an important way on whether a genuine conservative/liberal dialogue comes into being.

Book Description
Http://www.biblicalperspectives.com/books/sabbath_under_xfire/ Few Biblical doctrines have been under a constant crossfire of controversy during Christian history as has the Sabbath. A bibliographic survey indicates that since the sixteenth-century Reformation, over 2000 books, besides countless articles, have been published on this subject. In recent times, the controversy has been rekindled by at least three significant developments: (1) Numerous doctoral dissertations and articles have been written by Sunday keeping scholars who argue for the abrogation of the Sabbath in the New Testament and for the apostolic origin of Sunday. (2) The abandonment of the Sabbath promoted by former Sabbatarian organizations like the Worldwide Church of God and other independent congregations. These former Sabbatarian Christians who in the past championed the observance of the Sabbath, now reject the day as a Mosaic, Old Covenant ordinance, no longer binding upon "New Covenant" Christians. (3) The newly released Pastoral Letter Dies Domini of Pope John Paul II that calls for a revival of Sunday observance. Dies Domini is a historical document of enormous significance because the Pope grounds the moral obligation of Sunday observance in the Sabbath Commandment itself, by making Sunday the embodiment and "full expression" of the Sabbath. By making Sunday observance a moral imperative rooted in the Decalogue, the Pope calls upon all Christians to "strive to ensure that civil legislation respects their duty to keep Sunday holy." In The Sabbath Under Crossfire, Dr. Samuele Bacchiocchi examines the recent attacks against the Sabbath within the larger historical context of the origin and development of the anti-Sabbath theology. An understanding of how the abrogation view of the Sabbath began and developed through the centuries, is essential for comprehending why the Sabbath is still under crossfire today. The book analyzes in a systematic way the most common arguments used to negate the continuity and validity of the Sabbath for today. With compelling Biblical reasoning, it unmasks the fallacies of the attempts made to reduce the Sabbath to a Mosaic institution, fulfilled by Christ and condemned by Paul. The final chapter, "Rediscovering the Sabbath," offers an informative update on the rediscovery of the Sabbath by numerous religious groups, scholars, and church leaders. Most important of all, this book will enrich your understanding of how the Sabbath can enable you to experience the Savior's presence, peace, and rest in your life. - Introduction; 1.
