What if reconciliation is not a secondary issue in the gospel, but at its very heart? Churches divide, marriages fracture, and new congregations are planted not out of vision, but out of unresolved conflict. This raises a deeper question: have we lacked a robust theology of reconciliation, and...

WHO IS BARZILLAI? You have read past him a hundred times. An old man who carried bread to a hungry king in the wilderness, asked for nothing, and vanished in half a chapter. Scripture never forgot him. The Bible is full of such people. Each is given a single verse, or a verse and a half, and yet the whole story would not have held together without them. A Verse and a Half gathers 28 of these overlooked saints: the midwives who defied a Pharaoh, the slave girl whose mercy healed her captor, the armourbearer with no name at all.

Who is this Christ? To many, He is a mystery shrouded in centuries of tradition and complex creeds. To others, He is merely a historical figure or a “second person” in a divided Godhead. But what does the Word of God actually say? In this scriptural exposé, Rev. Jonathan L. McCune journeys...

What does genuine faith actually look like when it walks out the church door on Sunday morning? That is the question James has been pressing believers to answer for two thousand years. And in James 1: 27, he gives the clearest possible definition of what he calls pure and undefiled religion: visiting orphans and widows in their distress, and keeping oneself unstained by the world. Two things. Outward compassion. Inward holiness. Both together. Neither one without the other.

Dios nos exaltará cuando sea el momento oportuno. No necesitamos intentar promovernos a nosotros mismos; no necesitamos luchar por una posición. Dejemos que Dios nos coloque donde Él quiere y seamos fieles a Él. Es mejor para un hombre estar bien con Dios, incluso si no ocupa una posición terrenal importante. Son los hombres honestos y humildes a quienes Dios promoverá, si así lo desea. Este estudio ilustra lo que Daniel hizo y también lo que Daniel no hizo, lo cual llamó la atención tanto de Dios como de los reyes.

Now these dynamic talks can be heard in their entirety—for the building up of the saints and as a challenge to the unbeliever.

The Bible is a big book! Actually, it is a mini library consisting of sixty-six individual books. Either way you look at it, the central theme of the Bible remains a mystery to many people. This need not be the case. In the Bible in an Hour audio presentation, veteran Bible teacher Wade Butler will be your guide as he takes you on a panoramic journey through the Scriptures.

In this presentation Pastor Butler examines the significance of the Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant as a prophetic picture of the person and work of Christ. The parallels to Christ and His ministry are highlighted and drawn in high relief against the background of both the Old and New Testaments. The ministry of the priests is compared and contrasted to the ministry of Christ.

A Translation of the Good News of Jesus for Everyone If the Bible cannot be understood by everyone, then it is not good news. But from the very first days of the church at Pentecost, the good news of Jesus was translated into languages of everyday people through the power of the Holy Spirit...

In this comprehensive exposition, a leading New Testament scholar explores the unfolding theological unity of the entire Bible from the vantage point of the New Testament. G. K. Beale, coeditor of the award-winning Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament, examines how the New Testament storyline relates to and develops the Old Testament storyline. Beale argues that every major concept of the New Testament is a development of a concept from the Old and is to be understood as a facet of the inauguration of the latter-day new creation and kingdom.

The earliest Christians believed Jesus was an ancient celestial being who put on a bodysuit of flesh, died at the hands of dark forces, and then rose from the dead and ascended back into the heavens. But the writing we have today from that first generation of Christians never says where they thought he landed, where he lived, or where he died. The idea that Jesus toured Galilee and visited Jerusalem arose only a lifetime later, in unsourced legends written in a foreign land and language. Many sources repeat those legends, but none corroborate them.

Revelation was written because God wants us to know what the future holds. For Christians, the prophetic truths within provide wisdom, reassurance, and discernment - while for unbelievers, Revelation is a plea to receive God’s grace while there is still time. Best-selling author Amir Tsarfati examines what Revelation makes known about the end times and beyond.
