Book Description
Every scribe who is instructed unto the Kingdom of Heaven is like a man that is a householder, which brings forth out of his treasurers things new and old. Our love for God grows faster than our knowledge, then our understanding has a great desire to seek to know God even more closely and personal, we rest only in perfect knowledge of God. Our love begins and ends in knowing Him. This perfectly unites us to God in the closeness of solitary visions, our whole heart, mind, and soul. Perfection is in love. Our earthly knowledge is changed in God's perfect light, if we stay in it. The perfected knowledge that God alone gives us is the knowledge that ascends. At first, we saw dimly, but then, face to face. We are allowed to interpret the mysteries of His Holy Word. We may bring in certain sayings of which we know the interpretation would lead the hearers into the innermost sanctuary of that truth, which is hidden. The Engrafted Word perfects purity, and slays death by the Lord's presence, which is the presence of His discernment. After the slaying of death, the disciple of Divine Knowledge is illuminated. The Word of the LORD is pure, and remains so eternally. But those who have not come to know God, which is the Holy Union of The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit, merely speculates, engrafting their own thoughts and inventions which is diluting the Word of God. Purity makes it's disciple a theologian of God, who of themselves , grasp the doctrines. It is written "Receive with meekness, the Engrafted Word of God, which is able to save your souls." The true aim of our Christian life consists in the acquisition of the Holy Spirit of God. Only the good deeds done for Christ's sake bring us the fruits of the Holy Spirit.

Book Description
The Word is a seed destined to bear fruit as it is spoken into existence. When truth is grafted in one's heart, negativity and unbelief lose their power as forces of evil bow to the authority of God's Word, setting people free and altering destinies. (Practical Life)

Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

Book Description
Born the son of a clergyman on October 18, 1662, Matthew Henry was ordained into the British Presbyterian Church where he held the pastorate in Chester from 1687 to 1712. He was widowed, married again and had 10 children, three whom died in infancy. Henry died in 1714. Henry began work on his commentary as "Notes On The New Testament" in 1704 and the monumental work was completed shortly before his death in 1714. Remembered as a caring pastor, a passionate lover of the Word of God, and a man of great personal integrity, Matthew Henry has left his mark on the hearts of countless Christians who seek a deeper understanding of the riches that Scripture contains. This edition of Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible uses the King James text and is abridged from the original six volumes while faithfully retaining all of the vibrant themes of that classic work. Everything here is in Matthew Henry's own words and nothing relevant to today's reader has been omitted.

Book Description
How many souls have you won to Christ? How many are still walking with the Lord? All, some, a few? The facts are: Evangelical success is at an all-time low. We’re producing more backsliders than true converts. The fall-away rate—from large crusades to local churches—is between 80 to 90 percent. Why are so many unbelievers turning away from the message of the gospel? Doesn’t the Bible tell us how to bring sinners to true repentance? If so, where have we missed it? The answer may surprise you. One hundred years ago, Satan buried the crucial key needed to unlock the unbeliever’s heart. Now Ray Comfort boldly breaks away from modern tradition and calls for a return to biblical evangelism. If you’re experiencing evangelical frustration over lost souls, unrepentant sinners, and backslidden “believers,” then look no further. This radical approach could be the missing dimension needed to win our generation to Christ.
