Rethinking Hell


Book Description

Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.




Attributes of God


Book Description

A Transforming Knowledge of the Living God The timeless appeal of this classic book, written by a preacher with a worldwide ministry during the first half of the twentieth century, demonstrates the deep hunger for a saving knowledge of God present in each generation. Arthur Pink sought to give readers not just a theoretical knowledge of God but pointed them toward a personal relationship of yielding to him and living according to his biblical precepts. Pink's book explores attributes such as God's decrees, foreknowledge, sovereignty, holiness, grace, and mercy, among many others, all packaged in a style especially useful for pastors, teachers, and Bible students. Our God who is above all names cannot be found through human searching alone, Pink teaches, but can be known only as he is revealed by the Holy Spirit through his living Word.

An Offering Made by Fire


Book Description

Prophecy pages are turning! As each page rests upon the other, events begin to unfold all around us. Fear is replacing the peace that has kept our borders and it's amazing at what freedoms we are willing to give up, just to feel safe. With the ever-growing economic uncertainties, we as believers are supposed to be at peace so that an unbelieving world might ask concerning the hope that is within us. Yet today, we find more than ever that the church is hurting and is just as uncertain about the future as everyone else. Our joy has been replaced by anxiety and what was once so clear has now become a cloudy gray. We struggle to remain true to the convictions of those who shed their blood defending them. The body of Christ is at a crossroads. The syncretism of religion declares that there are many faces to God but only one voice, and these falsehoods are pushing the believer to make a stand! Resistance to this path labels one as a fanatic and a radical. What are we as followers of Christ supposed to be doing and what is our hope? Dave Dungan answers some of these questions scripturally as we see that we were created to minister to God His Glory and not our own. We are to be a living sacrifice so that we might be prepared "An Offering Made by Fire," a sweet smell to a most Holy God.
