Book Description
"Few religions have grown more rapidly in recent years or attracted as much notice as the Mormon Church. Yet despite the growth and attention, most people know little about that church, and misinformation about its beliefs abounds. [This book] succinctly introduces the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (the official name for the Mormon Church). Rex E. Lee, president of Brigham Young University and former Solicitor General of the United States, explains what members believe and why, from the viewpoint of a believer."--Dust jacket flap.

What Do Mormons Really Believe?
Author: John Ankerberg
Publisher: Harvest House Publishers
ISBN: 9780736908269
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Mormons say they are Christians, but are their claims true? Are the differences minimal? Authors Ankerberg and Weldon go beyond the seeming similarities to look candidly at the Mormon teachings that are clearly incompatible with orthodox Christianity, asking questions such as: -- Was God ever a man? -- Were Jesus and Lucifer brothers? -- Is Scripture still being written? -- Are we saved by what we do? -- Are there "levels" of heavenly glory? In clarifying the meanings of terms Mormons use and their views on the Bible, Ankerberg and Weldon reveal the chasm between Mormonism and traditional Christianity. This clear, well-written guide equips readers to use the truths of God's Word to defend the faith.

Cold-Case Christianity
Author: J. Warner Wallace
Publisher: David C Cook
ISBN: 1434705463
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Written by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

Isaiah in the Book of Mormon
Author: Donald W. Parry
Publisher: Maxwell Institute
ISBN: 9780934893299
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Of Isaiah' prophetic writings, the resurrected Lord taught, "Search these things diligently; for great are the words of Isaiah" (3 Nephi 32:1). Yet no chapters in the Book of Mormon are more difficult to understand than the Isaiah passages quoted by Nephi, Jacob, Abinadi, and Christ himself. The 17 essays in Isaiah in the Book of Mormon take a variety of approaches in seeking to help readers make the most of Isaiah's teachings. The contributing scholars draw on the Book of Mormon prophets as knowledgeable guides, examining how and why those ancient writers used and interpreted Isaiah's prophetic teachings. They explain Nephi's keys for understanding the great prophet, use historical and linguistic information to clarify his meanings, examine recurring themes, and reflect on the influence of these texts on ancient and modern saints.
