Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This clear and concise handbook on the historical development of Christian doctrine and theology will be brief concise and get to the 'heart' of the important people and events that have shaped the history of the Church. This historical sketch will give you a snap shot of 2000 years exploring all of the leaders, events, and main churches that have emerged as a result of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of His people. The book is 35 chapters long, however, the author has written a short version that is a little more than a 100 pages. An easy read in a couple of sittings. 'The church has unfolded in many forms, and no one single external form stands alone as the CORRECT visible expression. As the church settled in various geographical areas and as it penetrated through a variety of cultures, it found expression in multifaceted forms. Thus, the insistence that the church must exist in a single form is a denial not only of the richness of creation, but also of the complexities of the human response.' ? Robert Webber, Common Roots. 'Church History is the record of God's gracious, wonderful and mighty deeds, showing how by his Spirit and Word he rules his Church and conquers the world.' ? Nils Forsander, Life Pictures.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1937, on the threshold of Nazi Germany's war on the world, Dietrich Bonhoeffer wrote what turned out to be one of the most influential books of the century, 'The Cost of Discipleship.' In it, he challenged the faulty faith and compromises of German Christians, famously writing, 'When Christ calls a man he bids him come and die.' Now, eighty-two years after the book was first published, Charles Craig Lantz writes on Dietrich Bonhoeffer's doctrine of Grace. Lantz examines Bonhoeffer's doctrine of grace in his academic works, books, and life. Bonhoeffer complained that the Nazi German Church had proclaimed a 'cheap grace.' The Church in 2019 is not much different. Bonhoeffer spoke as prophet in his times and prophetically denounced the Church for preaching 'cheap grace.' If Bonhoeffer were alive today, he would say the same thing about the condition of the Church in 2019! Grace is a foundational doctrine for Christians, yet it is one of the most misunderstood. Bonhoeffer watched as many used the doctrine of grace as an excuse to do whatever they wanted, and in response, he wrote his classic work on what it truly means to follow Jesus. We cheapen grace, he declared, when we use it to compromise our behavior or to lower the standards of God's Word. In this examination of Bonhoeffer's doctrine of grace, Lantz explains what Bonhoeffer meant when he taught that grace is free but will cost us everything. Therefore, grace is not cheap. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book provides answers to those who claim that the King James Version is the only legitimate Word of God for English speaking people. This investigative work examines the allegations that the modern versions of the English Bible are aberrant, and that the translators had a conspiracy to corrupt the Scriptures to lead believers away from the Christian faith. This unique investigation is unlike any other apologetic for the Word of God, and will show the evidence that Christianity has an embarrassment of riches of ancient manuscript support. This book will help the reader to understand that since 1611 more manuscripts have been discovered to convince scholars that the early text of the New Testament is found in the Alexandrian text-type. This book will explore KJVO material that is replete with colossal illogical arguments of the indefensible King James Only position. The author has gone the extra mile to explore the background of the three main Greek New Testament Texts: the Textus Receptus, the Majority Text, and the Eclectic Text. The author is convinced that the rational conclusion is the 'eclectic' approach to New Testament textual criticism in determining the IDENTITY OF THE TEXT OF THE NEW TESTAMENT.…
