Marriage Under Fire
Author: James C. Dobson
Publisher: Multnomah Books
ISBN: 9781414317564
Category : Same-sex marriage
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Why shouldn'tthe definition of family be broadened and modernized? What harm could be done by two consenting adults who love one another coming together to create a binding union? In this succinct analysis of the issue, Dr. James Dobson presents a compelling case against the legalization of “marriage” between homosexuals, and the dire ramifications our nation could face: Same-sex marriage will destroy the fundamental principles of marriage, parenthood, and gender. Families will be increasingly unstable as their definition expands to incorporate multiple “moms” or “dads.” Legalization of gay marriages will lead to polygamy and other alternatives to one-man/one-woman unions. The divorce rate will be even higher, making our children less safe. Marriage Under Fireprovides the foundations of a battle plan for the preservation of traditional values in our nation. Our response could not be clearer. The well-being of the family, and thus our nation, hangs in the balance. Now is the time to speak out in defense of marriage and the family.

Philanthropy Under Fire
Author: Howard Husock
Publisher: Encounter Books
ISBN: 1594037396
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
In Philanthropy Under Fire, author Howard Husock defends the American tradition of independent philanthropy from significant political and intellectual challenges which threaten it today. Although the U.S. continues to be the most charitable nation in the world, serious efforts seek to discourage traditional, personal charitable giving by changing the tax code, and directing philanthropy toward causes chosen by government. Some voices seek to narrow the very definition of philanthropy to include only direct redistribution of income from rich to poor. In contrast, Mr. Husock broadly defends philanthropy’s causes—from the food pantry to the art museum to the university science lab—as both a source of effective new ideas and as a core aspect of democracy and liberty. In a new and original argument, he asserts that having broad impact does not require a marriage of philanthropy and government. Instead, he says, private programs growing out of the values held by their leaders—and imbued with those values—can have a wide impact through their influence on society’s norms. In this sense, the good that private philanthropy does for American society can far transcend the good that it does for its immediate recipients.

Book Description
We are living in a world and age where marriages are having intense problems. When dissected and reviewed carefully, it has come to the knowledge that most people do not take marriage particularly important and serious.Marriage is no more a priority in couples' lives. Sometimes one wonders, what is the reason why people are getting into marriage in the first place? For many people, it is for sexual intercourses and material gains.It is incredibly sad that marriage which was established and must be based on intense love has changed into mere fleshly feelings and material gains. The love which is the cementing strong glue that makes marriage works has died and most of the time does not even exist in the first place.Humanity because of the influence of Satan the devil, has lost the original God's plan for marriage. Since time immemorial, marriages have been falling apart. It is an incredibly sad situation that most children born between these precarious unions of a man and a woman are growing with single parents.The repercussions are bad and the impact on the children is never good for their holistic growth until adulthood. The vicious circle will continue: these children will get married, have children, and then divorced and their children will grow under single parenthood and the vicious tragedy continues!

Hell Under Fire
Author: Zondervan,
Publisher: Zondervan Academic
ISBN: 0310831288
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
Of all the teachings of Christianity, the doctrine of hell is easily the most troubling, so much so that in recent years the church has been quietly tucking it away. Rarely mentioned anymore in the pulpit, it has faded through disuse among evangelicals and been attacked by liberal theologians. Hell is no longer only the target of those outside the church. Today, a disturbing number of professing Christians question it as well. Perhaps more than at any other time in history, hell is under fire. The implications of the historic view of hell make the popular alternatives, annihilationism and universalism, seem extremely appealing. But the bottom line is still God’s Word. What does the Old Testament reveal about hell? What does Paul the apostle have to say, or the book of Revelation? Most important, what does Jesus, the ultimate expression of God’s love, teach us about God’s wrath?Upholding the authority of Scripture, the different authors in Hell Under Fire explore a complex topic from various angles. R. Albert Mohler Jr. provides a historical, theological, and cultural overview of “The Disappearance of Hell.” Christopher Morgan draws on the New Testament to offer three pictures of hell as punishment, destruction, and banishment. J. I. Packer compares universalism with the traditional understanding of hell, Morgan does the same with annihilationism, and Sinclair Ferguson considers how the reality of hell ought to influence preaching. These examples offer some idea of this volume’s scope and thoroughness.Hell may be under fire, but its own flames cannot be quenched by popular opinion. This book helps us gain a biblical perspective on what hell is and why we cannot afford to ignore it. And it offers us a better understanding of the One who longs for all people to escape judgment and obtain eternal life through Jesus Christ.
