In Agents of the Apocalypse, noted prophecy expert Dr. David Jeremiah does what no prophecy expert has done before.

But did you know the Bible has even more to say about those who will go with Jesus when he comes? The rapture isn’t scary or confusing.

This resource is comprehensive from the biblical perspective, on the subject of an earth created by God that predates the one that was later created to be Adam's domain. This teaching which is derived from many passages of both the Old and New Testaments is one of ongoing controversy however; many who study the Holy Bible are very interested in knowing what it actually reveals in regard to God's creation and the age of the earth and universe. In many cases, those who disagree with this well-substantiated doctrine, have not actually heard or read a detailed presentation of it or they are mistaken regarding the basic aspects of it (i.e. it is confused with the "day-age theory", it is thought to be a compromise of the scriptures to compete with “the theory of evolution” or that it is scripturally out-of-context). This audiobook resource covers all important aspects of this intriguing Bible subject, with each point of truth being solidly confirmed by the Holy Scriptures. The attentive reader will find that scriptural-backing for each aspect of the teaching, is not taken out-of-context but agrees completely with what God’s Word actually reveals in regard to His awesome creation.

It's the first and greatest command - the most important thing. But even if we want to love God that way, most of us don't. Are we doomed? Absolutely not. Drawing from psychology, Shakespeare, loads of Scripture, and her personal experience falling in love at 13 (and staying in love for 26 years), Gerhardt makes a story-rich case for a surefire way to fall in love and stay in love with God. Inspiring, warm, genuine, and practical, Look to Love is both convincing and comforting. This isn’t a book to shame you into reading your Bible. It’s an invitation and a help.

As indicated by the title, this book presents a very critical look at the doctrine of Hell, which is rarely criticized within Christendom today. In the scriptures, there is no mention of "eternal torment" in the Old Testament, and in the Greek scriptures (the NT), there are three words translated to "hell": Gehenna, Hades, and Tartarus, none of which have anything to do with eternal torment. My objective is to guide you into the knowledge that the doctrine of hell is unbiblical and extremely harmful to those who hold to it.

What reasonable evidence exists that the Bible is true? Many people, even in intellectual and academic circles, believe that because the Bible is a "religious" book, it can't withstand scientific or critical analysis.

Look - I Am Come To Do Your Will, is a study of the prophetic significances of many of the events within the earthly life of Jesus Christ. It shows how many of these events had prophetic meaning for the future and especially within our time. It includes the tranfiguration and walking on water and many of the other events of his marvelous life. It is a valuable reference for Christians who want to study deeply the true teachings of the Bible, which writings are the basis of all true faith.

When it comes to religion—and more specifically, Christianity—”God” is a divisive issue. Either you’re a believer who loves him, or an atheist (or other spiritual believer) who denounces his existence and hates him. Who is right? Which side got it correct? Is there even a right answer, or does that become a philosophical question of what “faith” truly is? In Dr. DuWayne A. Carlson’s new book Atheistic Christianity, the topic of “God” transcends conventional belief systems as the author encourages listeners to cultivate a different view.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” Thus begins the famous words of Jesus known as the Beatitudes. There are eight such sayings, each beginning with the words, “Blessed are.” Each one of these beatitudes taught everyone in the first century (and still teaches everyone in the twenty-first century) how to be blessed. They might be mistaken for a shopping list for the soul, just a list of eight virtues to pick up before we leave the store. But they’re not. They’re inseparably interwoven.
