By God's Amazing Grace


Book Description

Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring two-pence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it. C. S. Lewis This is the true story of Raymond D. Martin, an authentic original. It is an account of a life lived with single-minded purpose; a testimony to the wonderful grace of Jesus. From his childhood in Queens, to his dramatic conversion, and throughout his 60 years of ministry, Ray invites you to know him. As you become acquainted, you will discover a man of unfaltering earnestness and disarming tenderness. If you begin to sense that, if it were possible, he would love to get to know you too, you wouldn't be mistaken. His heart for people is matchless. Yet, one wonders, what makes it beat? The answer to that question is the theme of this book - the theme of Raymond D. Martin's life. It is, perhaps, exceedingly rare that a person can say with absolute honesty, "for me, to live is Christ " This is the story of such a person and the amazing grace of God.

Erroneous and Schismatical Opinions: The Question of Orthodoxy regarding the Theology of Hanserd Knollys (c. 1599–1691)


Book Description

England in the mid-seventeenth-century saw the emergence of numerous religious sects, one of which were the Calvinistic Baptists. During this revolutionary era this group was often accused of heresy by their Reformed contemporaries. At that time Hanserd Knollys, one of the key spokesmen for this body, was personally charged with holding heterodox beliefs, in particular, Antinomianism, Anabaptism and Fifth Monarchism. In addition, subsequent historians have been compelled to defend Knollys against the charge of hyper-Calvinism. All of these charges are serious, and consequently bring into question Knollys' basic orthodoxy. This book systematically examines each of these charges against Knollys by looking at them in their broader historical context, and then comprehensively examining them from Knollys' writings to determine if they are indeed valid. Along the way Knollys' soteriology, ecclesiology and eschatology receive vital and needed elucidation.
