The Books of Haggai and Malachi


Book Description

Verhoef's study on the Books of Haggai and Malachi is part of The New International Commentary on the Old Testament, a series which devotes considerable care to achieving a balance between technical information and homiletic-devotional interpretation. The commentary itself is based on the author's own translation of the Hebrew text.




The Great Tribulation!


Book Description

The end times contain many exciting events we are all familiar with and think we fully understand. The appearance and domination of the Antichrist throughout the world. The rise and global domination of the "Revised Roman Empire," resulting in a One World Government. The Mark of the Beast that makes trade impossible anywhere on the Earth. The universal devastation wrecked by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The appearance of the spiritual harlot of Mystery Babylon, and the end time false religion. However, consider the following: - What if the Antichrist will not become the universal or worldwide leader? - What if the Mark of the Beast is regional, rather than global? - What if there is no "Revised Roman Empire"? - What if the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have already been loosed? - What if Mystery Babylon could never be the Roman Catholic Church? - Who did Jesus identify as the Mystery Babylon of Revelation? - What if the Twelfth Imam, the Islamic Messiah, is slain in the rebuilt Jewish Temple? - Why is it impossible to know the identity of the Antichrist until certain events unfold? - Why are the dates of the Rapture and that of the Second Coming both "unknowable"? - Who is left to enter into the Millennial Kingdom if there's a Post-Tribulational Rapture? - Why are the identities of the two end-time prophets "unknowable"? - What country is poised to play a major role within these end-time events? In a detailed and thorough analysis of Scripture, The Great Tribulation! explores these and many more questions related to the end-time events in a step-by-step approach. Using a literal interpretation of Scripture, this eschatological study is unsurpassed in detail for the knowledgeable Bible student and yet remains basic and straightforward for the novice.




Selective Belief


Book Description

DO YOU HAVE AN OLD HAT FAITH? Is the Bible simply a book that confirms what we already believe, or instead is our belief to be conformed to what is written in the book? Even the Gospel can become old hat to those who take their faith for granted. Selective Belief is written with a fresh look into what we think we already know about salvation and Gods grace. The love of God for the sinners whom He saves is a story that never grows old. It is an eternal love story that we gladly tell to all who will listen. This book stems from many encounters with those who see Gods only purpose as a sinner- saver. To many of these, this is the sole purpose for His existence. God is greater than this. He reigns in a glorious Kingdom where He currently rules as King. He has a Universe to manage, and a fallen world to bring to its ultimate conclusion. We will discover a God who is on the midst of working His eternal plan. In this eternal plan He graciously chooses to include as His own children people from the humanity of this earth to become heirs to His Kingdom and to become the recipients of His eternal blessings. This book will cause you to take a fresh look into the scriptures regarding Gods choices regarding our salvation, as well as the process by which He brings it to come to pass in our life. It will challenge you to take another look into what you thought you already knew about your salvation.




An Introduction to the Bible


Book Description

Many current Bible intro volumes focus more on theories about the biblical text than on the text itself. They lack the simplicity that has become increasingly crucial as basic biblical literacy has declined. Robert Kugler and Patrick Hartin seek to remedy that problem by turning readers back to the text at hand. Their Introduction to the Bible surveys the content of all the biblical books, section by section, focusing on the Bible s theological themes.




Justice for All


Book Description

Justice for All demonstrates that the Jewish Bible, by radically changing the course of ethical thought, came to exercise enormous influence on Jewish thought and law and also laid the basis for Christian ethics and the broader development of modern Western civilization. Jeremiah Unterman shows us persuasively that the ethics of the Jewish Bible represent a significant moral advance over Ancient Near East cultures. Moreover, he elucidates how the Bible’s unique conception of ethical monotheism, innovative understanding of covenantal law, and revolutionary messages from the prophets form the foundation of many Western civilization ideals. Justice for All connects these timeless biblical texts to the persistent themes of our times: immigration policy, forgiveness and reconciliation, care for the less privileged, and attaining hope for the future despite destruction and exile in this world.
