Echoes of Eternity is not a defense of faith against science. It is a confrontation of modern assumptions by evidence that refuses to remain silent. Across cosmology, biology, neuroscience, technology, and physics, this book traces a single, unbroken theme: human discovery consistently reveals pre-existing wisdom, never self-generated order. From the fine-tuning of the universe to the information architecture of DNA, from avian flight to moral consciousness, from artificial intelligence to quantum mechanics, the natural world behaves not as a product of chance, but as a system governed by ...

Early Christianity: From Christ to Constantine traces the astonishing rise of the Christian faith from its roots in first-century Judea to its endurance under the Roman Empire’s fiercest persecutions. Anchored in Scripture and guided by a rigorous historical-grammatical method, this book unfolds the dramatic story of how the gospel was proclaimed, defended, preserved, and lived out by ordinary believers and courageous leaders across three centuries.

As a Soviet-style collapse unfolds in America, Grayson, equal parts philosopher and warrior but legitimately neither, makes a death-bed promise to watch over a couple with a child on the way. Driven by his own severe loss, he must make good on his promise and carry the psychic consequences as he races headlong into the fallout of our imploding civilization.

What can a Jewish historian, writing under Roman patronage, tell us about Jesus, John the Baptist, James the brother of Jesus, and the world of the New Testament? More than many realize. In this comprehensive study, Edward D. Andrews examines the writings of Flavius Josephus, the first-century priest, general, and historian whose works preserve invaluable accounts of Judea, Rome, and the key figures who shaped biblical history. Far from undermining Scripture, Josephus provides remarkable confirmation of its people, events, and settings — from Herod the Great to Pontius Pilate, from the ...

Yet for many Christians, its story remains unfamiliar. In this comprehensive and accessible study, Edward D. Andrews guides readers through the origins, development, and significance of the Septuagint. You’ll explore its role in the ancient world, its use by Jesus and the apostles, its preservation in manuscripts and quotations, and its impact on ...

To possess “the light of life,” one must put faith in Jesus Christ and become his follower. On social media every day, millions of Christians are saying such things as “I am a Calvinist,” “I am an Arminian.” “I am a Lutheran,” “I am a Wesleyan,” and so on. They then debate and argue theology as though it is a blood sport. This author is not an Arminian, Calvinist, Wesleyan, Lutheran, Baptist, follower, disciple, or learner of any other denomination; Andrews is non-denominational. THE BIBLE'S ANSWER: EPHESIANS 1:4: Are Some Chosen (Predestined) to Eternal Salvation, and ...

Shariah law is not a distant cultural curiosity—it is a fully developed legal and theological system that governs millions and is steadily advancing into Western societies unprepared for its demands. While politicians, academics, and media gatekeepers insist that Shariah is harmless or “misunderstood,” the historical and textual reality reveals something far more severe: a rigid system claiming divine authority over every human being and every human institution. Its rulings on women, dissenters, speech, sexuality, war, family structure, criminal punishment, and social order are not ...

What if everything you have been told about Muhammad is only half the story—and the other half has been carefully buried? MUHAMMAD: The Truth They Don’t Want You to Know pulls back the veil on the man at the center of Islam and the religion built in his name. Drawing directly from the Quran, the major hadith collections, early Muslim biographies, and the record of Islamic rule, this book follows the story from pagan Arabia before Muhammad’s birth all the way to today’s ongoing waves of jihad, terrorism, and ideological warfare. Instead of the polished classroom portrait of a “...

In an age of darkness, one man dared to unchain the Word of God. For centuries, England lived under a system in which Scripture was locked in Latin—accessible only to clergy and withheld from the very people to whom God had given it. Into this world stepped John Wycliffe: Oxford scholar, fearless theologian, and the first great champion of the English Bible. Drawing on rigorous research and the surviving writings of Wycliffe and his followers, JOHN WYCLIFFE: Champion of the Bible traces the extraordinary story of the man who declared that Holy Scripture—not popes, councils, or tradition...

This volume guides readers through the entire landscape of Hebrew textual transmission, beginning with the earliest scribes and continuing through the Dead Sea Scrolls, the ancient versions, ...

REVIEWING 2013 New World Translation of Jehovah’s Witnesses is going to challenge your objectivity.

We can also have preconceived ideas that have been a part of our thinking for so long; ...

The role of women within the church has been a heated, ongoing debate. There are two views. We have the equal ministry opportunity for both men and women (egalitarian view) and the ministry roles distinguished by gender (complementarian view). This biblically grounded introduction will acquaint the reader with the biblical view: what does the Bible say about the woman's role in the church? Both views mention the teachings of the apostle Paul in 1 Timothy 2:12 in order to support their viewpoint. Andrews will furnish the reader with a clear and thorough presentation of the biblical evidence ...

In Linguistics and the Biblical Text: Unlocking Scripture Through the Science of Language, Edward D. Andrews reveals how Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek unlock the Bible’s original meaning.

This volume brings the reader face to face with the actual historical evidence that stands behind the New Testament text. Rather than treating textual criticism as an abstract or speculative enterprise, it grounds the discussion in real manuscripts produced by real scribes within living memory of the apostles. The result is a work that replaces uncertainty with documentation and replaces theory-driven doubt with verifiable data. Drawing directly from the manuscripts, versions, and patristic citations, this book demonstrates that the New Testament was transmitted with remarkable care from ...

For many Christians, the answer has been assumed rather than examined. Popular Calvinistic theology has taught generations of believers that divine sovereignty means God ordains every event, every choice, and even every act of human wickedness—while somehow remaining untouched by evil. But is that what Scripture actually teaches? In this carefully argued and biblically grounded work, the author engages directly with the influential Calvinistic teachings of R. C. Sproul on providence, sovereignty, evil, and human freedom. Sproul’s views are presented fully and fairly in their own ...

America is not drifting; it is descending. Violence multiplies, truth is redefined, churches are seduced, and global powers quietly align. The headlines feel new, but the pattern is ancient. From Eden’s first act of defiance to the Flood, from Egypt’s arrogance to Babylon’s pride, from Rome’s iron rule to today’s fragile superpower, God has always dealt with nations in the same way—and He has already told us how this ends. The Fall of America follows the spine of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation and shows where the United States fits in that unbroken story. It traces the ...

Historical criticism, also known as the historical-critical method or higher criticism, is a branch of literary criticism that investigates the origins of ancient text in order to determine authorship, date of writing and historical accuracy of the Bible, in the light of archaeology and history. Did Moses really pen the first five books of the Bible, or were they written centuries later by multiple writers as Bible critics say? Did Isaiah from the eighth-century pen the prophetic book that bears his name, or were there three authors who wrote the book centuries later? Did Daniel of the ...
