Book Description
"If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?" Matthew 5:46-47 Cogent and packed with a wealth of brilliant seed-thoughts, William Secker's The Consistent Christian: A Handbook for Christian Living imparts gems of condensed and enlightening thought. Clearly and pointedly, loaded with comparisons and contrasts, and spiced with analogies this is a wonderful handbook on practical godliness. An excellent aid to help you live a holy life wholly for Christ. You will be humbled and sanctified. Originally published in 1660, The Consistent Christian is both a rare find and an inspiring treasure! "In a mountain, the law was propounded to Moses - and in a mountain the law was expounded by Jesus; the former to a man of God - the latter by the Son of God; the one to a prophet of the Lord, the other by the Lord of the prophets. "As the works of Christ were miraculous - so the words of Christ were mysterious; they were such a depth which none could sound but those whom God had furnished with the plummet of an enlightened understanding. Before any one can peruse the Scriptures to profit, the Lamb of God must open the 'seven seals'. "In this chapter, the soul-justifying Savior condemns the self-justifying Scribes and Pharisees. Never did men make more boast in the law - but never had men less cause. They knew but little as to the letter - but less of its spirit. They were better acquainted with the customs of nature - than the canons of Scripture. Alas! how shall the blind see - when the seers are blind! They who should have put the eyes of others in, had put their own out! "The righteous laws of God cannot connive at the unrighteous lives of men; they not only require truth without - but within also. The rays of this sun enter the most secret chambers of the heart, therefore he who lusts after, and he who lies with a woman are both adulterers. He is a murderer whose heart is full of hatred, though his hands are free from violence. Thus the lusts of men may be predominant, when the lives of men are not inordinate; as guests may be in the house, when they look not out of the windows. He who begins religion where it should end - will end religion where it should be begun. "My subject treats not of oratory - but divinity; and my design in it is rather to express affections, than to affect expressions. Though the sweetness of the sauce may yield pleasure to the palate - yet it is only the soundness of the meat which can administer nourishment to the blood.

Book Description
The Consistent Christian is unique in many ways. First, it is unique in that the author summarizes here the biblical (and Puritan) doctrine of the good works in the Christian life, a doctrine that is much abused or ignored these days. Second, it is unique in that its style is inspiring. Much like a treasure trove of carefully chosen quotes on the Christian life, this book cannot be read without giving thought to what you read, and without meditating upon the implications of what you read. Third, it is unique in that once you start reading it, it will inspire your Evangelical motivations to love and serve the Lord and your neighbor in ways that you never employed before. This book will truly get you to the next level of your dedication to your God and Savior. William Secker (d. 1681) was a Puritan preacher in England and author. This book has been originally published in 1660. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and updated for modern readers.

Book Description
The church is going through a time of severe fracture over the issue of homosexuality. This book addresses the arguments from the gay Christian movement and revisionist theologians and exegetes on a single point: Can they withstand the evidence of the primary sources? In Unchanging Witness, Donald Fortson and Rollin Grams articulate the consistent orthodox view on homosexuality by presenting primary sources throughout Christian history and by interpreting the biblical texts in their cultural contexts. The first part of the book examines church history from the patristic period to the present day, and the second part engages biblical texts in light of Ancient Near Eastern, Jewish, Greek, and Roman primary sources. Throughout, the authors survey the conflicting and changing arguments of revisionist readings and contend that, in light of the overwhelming evidence of the relevant texts, the real issue is not one of interpretation but of biblical authority and Christian orthodoxy.

Book Description
Are you searching for life above the ordinary? Do you want true and lasting relationships, a genuine godly character, and a practical everyday faith that fills your life and the lives of those you touch with blessings? Then this powerful booklet is exactly what you need. Each chapter is a veritable mine of rich gems, worthy of recounting again and again as you face the practical realities of getting along with yourself, with others, and with God. The author was a realistic Christian of rich experience with the Savior, and one ever alert to opportunities to render encouragement and help to those about her. Recognizing that true happiness is found only as we give, she viewed every Christian-layman, medical practitioner, and gospel laborer-as a "worker" interested in the welfare of others, and referred to such as "workers." Carry this booklet with you. Read a portion as you have a free moment, and memorize some of the gems. Ponder the words and put them into practice. Life will become richer and more meaningful to you.

Book Description
Dr Francis S. Collins, head of the Human Genome Project, is one of the world's leading scientists, working at the cutting edge of the study of DNA, the code of life. Yet he is also a man of unshakable faith in God. How does he reconcile the seemingly unreconcilable? In THE LANGUAGE OF GOD he explains his own journey from atheism to faith, and then takes the reader on a stunning tour of modern science to show that physics, chemistry and biology -- indeed, reason itself -- are not incompatible with belief. His book is essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest questions of all: why are we here? How did we get here? And what does life mean?
