Book Description
For nearly five hundred years the Doctrine of Predestination as propounded by John Calvin has held sway over the western Christian church and its theology. Many of the major protestant denominations are predominantly Calvinistic. Is the Doctrine of Predestination Scriptural? Do the Five Points of Calvinism have sound Scriptural support? Author Jos Salins carefully examines the Five Points of Calvinism and exposes the errors in these doctrines and the fact that none of them are supported by Scripture as assumed by Calvinists. He brings a new understanding of Romans chapter 9 - the chapter which was fundamental to the formulation of the Doctrine of Predestination by John Calvin and before him his mentor, St. Augustine of Hippo. This book is compelling, thoroughly Scriptural and scholarly, yet written in a style that is readable and understandable by anyone, and does not necessarily require of the reader a theological background as a prerequisite. Its content will have a tremendous impact on the Calvinistic world and on Calvinism as a whole and will shake it to its very foundations, with far reaching implications. This is a must read for every thinking Christian.

Satan's Biggest Lie
Author: Michael J. Oldham
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781948282659
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
The United States' War on Terror has been ongoing for nearly three decades, ever since the first World Trade Center bombing in 1994. But this war has been ongoing for some 1,400 years, since Muhammad claimed that he was visited by the archangel Gabriel in a cave near Mecca in 610 A.D. and recited the Qur'an to him then and in a series of visitations thereafter. And thus, a new religion, Islam, was born. Muhammad advocated the use of force to convert the world to Islam and his followers have used both his tactics and his example since those early days of Islam. Rev. Dr. Oldham questions the encounter with Gabriel, primarily because the archangel Gabriel of the Bible always was a messenger from Jehovah God. He never recited anything from an "eternal holy book." The archangel Gabriel of the Bible normally "visited" people in dreams and visions. So, the question is: Did Muhammad converse with an archangel or a devil--perhaps Satan himself? This well-researched and fascinating book answers that question and several other "politically incorrect" questions.

The Gospel According to Satan
Author: Jared C. Wilson
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1400212065
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Not every lie sounds untrue. Some lies are repeated so often they seem to be common sense. That's why lies about God are so dangerous. The Gospel According to Satan examines eight lies the enemy wants us to believe and provides eight lines of counterattack against them. The lies include: God just wants you to be happy; you only live once you need to live your truth; and just let go and let God. Jared C. Wilson reveals why these lies appeal to us, shows how they harm us, and provides ways to counteract them. We can renounce Satan's counterfeit gospel, but first we must see it for what it is. "Enumerates the major ways the Devil uses his cunning and calculating ways of luring us off the narrow road of God's grace. We will all do well to read this book and confront the lies we are being sold."--Kyle Idleman, senior pastor of Southeast Christian Church and author of Not a Fan and Don’t Give Up "A unique, compelling, and even witty look at the devil's current greatest hits--lies we urgently need to unmask." --Sam Allberry, speaker for Ravi Zacharias International Ministries and author of 7 Myths About Singleness and Why Does God Care Who I Sleep With? "One of the most thought-provoking writers in the Christian world today... He doesn’t just describe the tantalizing falsehoods of our age, he exposes how they've slithered into our hearts."--Matt Smethurst, managing editor at The Gospel Coalition and author of Before You Open Your Bible

The Little Horn's Big Lie!

Languages : en
Pages : 174
Book Description
Have you ever listened to a preacher bring a sermon on the pre-tribulation rapture? How wonderful it will be when we are all caught up with Jesus just before everything breaks loose here on earth? What about the one that is preached on how and why the Sabbath was changed to Sunday and give a list of reasons; none of them found in the Bible. Then there is tithing? They make sure to let us know we demonstrate our obedience through paying our tithing and giving back to God/Yahweh, and when we do not, we can be cursed or not be blessed as we should. We cannot forget the sermon on the Gifts of God/Yahweh that are no longer for the church. These and other doctrinal views are commonly preached in the main stream Christian Churches today. They are based off opinion of men and are often argued with verses from the Bible that have been taken out of context. It is interesting that the evangelical churches today claim to take and read the Bible literally. They claim every word to be the inerrant word of God/Yahweh. Many of them treat the Bible as God/Yahweh, yet there is not a verse that can be found that says the Sabbath was changed to a Sunday, that the Saints will be raptured before the tribulation, or the church is to pay tithing. Nowhere will you find the Holy Spirit only gives just some of the gifts on the list to believers today. You will not find a verse that specifically tells you once you are saved you are always saved. Instead, you will find volumes of verses that contradict each of these false doctrines being preached.So, what does that say about our contemporary church today, the one that claims to take each word, statement, or verse literally, the very ones preaching about false teachers, teaching themselves, false doctrine?

The Deception of Adam
Author: Kim West PhD MDiv
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
What if from the garden until today, deception from the evil one has been the driving force of conflict between men and women? His first tactic of deception worked with Eve, what if it is working on Adam today? The revealing of this deception of Adam and how it is still in play today is our discussion in this book. It is that deception that lessens the efficacy of the Great Commission and has caused, and continues to cause, a huge rift in the church to the benefit only of the evil one. The rift is between Adam and Eve but it is fueled by that great deceiver in the garden. Even with the restoration our Lord brought, the rift is still very deep and very wide today. We are going to pull back the curtain and see the puppet master at work. We will see how we are his unwitting puppets. We must cut the strings. Our common enemy has worked very hard to divide us, but we can stop him in his tracks by recognizing his influence and standing together. We are to fight the enemy, not one another. United against the evil one and set free from his schemes we will finally turn and face him down. The key to doing this is by knowing and living the truth together. He is terrified of our recognizing his hand in the divisions of the church and that we would then unite against him. The evil one has kept us focused on opposition with one another in order to divert our attention from his plans and, in turn, causes us to disempower the church. Imagine what we can achieve by working as a team against this adversary.
