Angeles – (Spanish)
$14.99
Una fascinante e inspiradora mirada a la funcion de los angeles en la vida de las personas: como nos guian hacia y a traves de la experiencia salvadora de Cristo.
Y si el cielo estuviera mas cerca de lo que pensamos? Y si sus fronteras se entrecruzaran con las nuestras? Y si los angeles entraran y salieran de nuestro poroso presente, este que nos parece tan real y solido?
Todo es cierto; la realidad puede parecernos oscura en este momento, pero para los primeros cristianos era resplandeciente. A traves de sus escritos, sermones, cantos y arte, los creyentes de la antiguedad confesaban una poderosa y vivida creencia de que los angeles nos ayudan a perseverar en nuestro trayecto hacia Dios.
Angeles se remonta a los primeros cristianos y presenta a los lectores modernos una perspectiva de los angeles a traves de los ojos y experiencias de aquellos: como entendieron los dominios angelicos, la guia y proteccion de los angeles y las luchas contra el espiritu maligno y sus demonios. Ya sea en la prueba o en la tentacion, en la alabanza o en la oracion, los angeles estan presentes, listos para ayudarnos y reconfortarnos, guiarnos y corregirnos, caminar con nosotros hasta el borde de la muerte y mas alla, acompaandonos hasta que estemos en los brazos de Cristo.
Explores the relationship between people and angels, through the eyes of the early church.
Heaven is closer than we realize. Its boundaries overlap our own, and angels move in and out of our porous present, this moment that seems to us so solid and concrete. If that reality seems dim to us now, it beamed for the early Christians. Through their writings, sermons, songs, and art, the ancient faithful confessed a powerful and vivid belief that angels help carry us on our journey to God.
Rooted in the Scripture and following this ancient understanding, Angeles reveals:
*the role that angels play in the lives of people and in God’s plan of salvation
*the different ranks and functions of angels
*how Satan and his demons fell from grace and plagued humans
*the functions of guardian angels and how God assigns them to fit our personal needs
*how guardian angels help us resist evil, temptation, and the devil
*the way angels join with us in our prayers, even adding their own to ours
*the service angels provide in worship
Featuring examples of angels in ancient icons and frescoes and supported by extensive research on the early church and its pastors, poets, theologians, and artist

40 Questions About The End Times
$22.99Even-handed, biblical, and broadly accessible answers to the most frequently asked questions about the return of Christ This newest contribution to the 40 Questions series continues the tradition of excellent research presented in accessible language and clear writing. Designed for both students and general readers, this resource helps them make sense of one of the Bible’s most difficult topics.
Schnabel, a professor at a leading seminary and the author of several major works, looks at the future of the world, the church, and Israel; the return of Jesus; and the millennium and the final judgment. He answers questions related to the rapture, the 144,000, the identity of the two witnesses, Armageddon, how to interpret Revelation, heaven and hell, and so forth. The result is an even-handed treatment that avoids sensationalism and a “newspaper headline” approach to prophecy, that is, interpreting prophecy according to current events. Rather, Schnabel carefully studies the biblical text in light of its first-century context and draws biblically-based conclusions.

Knowledge Of God In The World And The Word
$29.99Amid the crisis of authority in our modern and postmodern era, Christians need to be able to point to God’s revelation in the natural world in addition to defending God’s unique revelation in the Bible and in the person of Jesus Christ.
Classical apologetics takes a two-step approach to commending the Christian picture of reality. First, arguments for the existence of God, such as those of natural theology, are employed to create common ground with people outside the household of the Christian faith and to provide intellectual support for Christians. Second, classical apologetics defends key items of Christian revelation, including the reliability of the Bible, the identity of the historical Jesus, and the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
In Knowledge of God in the World and the Word, authors Douglas Groothuis and Andrew Shepardson provide a simple introduction to classical apologetics that also addresses the most common objections to natural theology. Readers will discover in the book an easy point of entry into understanding why Christian beliefs about Jesus are true and rational. Further, the authors apply the power of classical apologetics to Christian ministry.
