Christian universalism has been hotly debated in recent years—but many people may not realize just how much diversity there is under that umbrella term. In Christ Saves All, the various contributors explore differing ways of holding to the idea that God, as revealed in Jesus, has set out to save everyone...

What is authentic faith? The Gospel According to Jesus challenges Christians to re-evaluate their commitment to Christ by examining their fruits. MacArthur asks, "What does it really mean to be saved?" He urges readers to understand that their conversion was more than a mere point in time, that...

What if the reason for Jesus wasn't just to save you from hell, but to bring you home to a Father who loves you more than you can imagine? This book reveals that the ultimate purpose of the cross is not just a ticket to heaven, but an invitation into an intimate, life-changing relationship with...

The Gospel is not a feeling. It is a Forensic Fact established by Prophecy and History. In a religious landscape cluttered with traditions, confusion, and contradictory claims, where can we find the singular definition of the Gospel? The answer is found in the precise legal testimony of the King James Bible: Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4). In The Gospel, author David Michael Curtis strips away centuries of institutional dogma to present a rigorous, forensic ...

In recent years, Christians everywhere are rediscovering the Jewish roots of their faith. Every year at Easter time, many believers now celebrate Passover meals (known as Seders) seeking to understand exactly what happened at Jesus' final Passover, the night before he was crucified. Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist shines fresh light on the Last Supper by looking at it through Jewish eyes.

“Mark, Finished the book and it was excellent! You opened a walnut with a sledgehammer! There can be no doubt that it is truth!” Robert Andrews, Pastor and Author of The Family: God’s Weapon for Victory. I am willing to follow the Greek New Testament wherever it leads. In this case, it leads to the best news ever! Get ready to fall in love with God, all over again. Get ready to see God’s love for even the worst of his enemies. “The Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world” (1 John 4:14). “He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the ...

What if the blessings of Deuteronomy 28 were never meant to keep you striving… but to point you to Christ? For generations, believers have quoted: “Blessed in the city.” “Blessed in the field.” “The head and not the tail.” Yet many still wrestle with fear, performance-based faith, and uncertainty about whether they truly qualify for God’s favor. In Walking in Deuteronomy 28 Favor, Felix Duyilemi reveals the powerful New Covenant truth that transforms this entire chapter: The blessings were conditional under the Law — But they are fulfilled through the obedience of Christ. ...

Israel did not live in a spiritual vacuum. The name of YHWH was planted in the middle of a world already thick with names—names spoken over altars, carved into stones, invoked at city gates, and trusted for rain, fertility, victory, healing, and protection. The Bible’s warfare against idolatry wasn’t fought in theory; it was fought in public, in homes, in kings’ courts, and—at Israel’s worst moments—even beside the worship of YHWH Himself. The Gods That Surrounded Israel is not a collection of exotic trivia. It is a clear, readable map of the rival deities, cults, and ...

The Bible presents a unified testimony about human depravity from the Fall in Genesis to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Scripture does not flatter human nature. It does not portray man as morally neutral, nor as steadily progressing upward through enlightenment and civilization. Instead, it reveals a tragic but realistic portrait: humanity, created good, fell into sin, and ever since that fall the corruption of the human heart has expressed itself in countless forms—sometimes crude and violent, sometimes polished and sophisticated, sometimes openly wicked, and sometimes clothed in ...

Far more happened to us on the cross than we realize! Righteousness: It’s so much more than a call to holy living or a theological notion. What you discover about this truth will alter your reality and revolutionize your walk with God.

The Christian life is a process of growing in holiness, our natural response to the good news of our redemption in Christ. This kind of growth is gradual, and obstacles are plentiful. Thankfully, we don't have to go it alone. God has given us his Spirit so that we can overcome temptation and become more and more conformed to the image of Christ. But how does the Spirit work? What is the nature of our own personal involvement in the process? And how do we know if we are making progress?

“Is the experience of God’s grace in your life a thrilling thing? Just thinking about the fact that God, by His own sovereign plan, decided to be gracious to me is overwhelming. There is nothing greater than receiving grace upon grace.” --John MacArthur Simple definitions can make grace...

We admire these men for their greatness, but the truth is Augustine grappled with sexual passions, Martin Luther struggled to control his tongue, and John Calvin fought the battle of faith with worldly weapons. Yet each of these men will always be remembered for the messages they declared - messages that still resound today. John Piper explores these men's lives, integrating Augustine's delight in God with Luther's emphasis on the Word and Calvin's exposition of scripture. Through their strengths and struggles, we can learn how to live better today.

In this award-winning book, Leanne Payne reveals how to overcome the three great barriers that keep us from becoming whole persons: The inability to receive God's forgiveness, the inability to forgive others, and the inability to accept ourselves.

The solution isn’t a new Gospel but a bigger, historical, and more comprehensive one. The Gospel is Bigger than You Think offers a thorough approach to the biblical Gospel, broadening the listener's perspective and creating lasting Kingdom impact.

I want to tell you what perhaps the greatest Christian who ever lived (the apostle Paul) thought of the cross of Christ. Believe me, the cross is of deepest importance. This is no mere question of controversy; this is not one of those points on which people may agree to differ and feel that differences will not shut them out of heaven. A person must be right on this subject, or he is lost forever. Heaven or hell, happiness or misery, life or death, blessing or cursing in the last day - all hinges on the answer to this question: What do you think about the cross of Christ?
