En Fundamentos Bíblicos para la Iglesia Basada en Células, el Dr. Comiskey establece la base bíblica para el ministerio de grupos pequeños. Comiskey primero examina la comunidad dentro de la Trinidad y la estructura familiar del grupo pequeño en el Antiguo Testamento. Luego explora cómo Jesús implementó la nueva familia de Dios a través de las comunidades estrechamente unidas que encontramos en las iglesias en las casas. Comiskey luego cubre ampliamente cómo la iglesia primitiva se reunía en las casas, levantó liderazgos desde el interior y reunió a las iglesias en las casas para celebrar.

Our role as Judeo-Christian believers to our nation under God. A look at the nation of Israel through the Bible and the Levitical priesthood. And how it applies to us today.

God’s heart to reach the nations is evident from Genesis to Revelation and we are all invited to join in. Whether it’s local church planting or traveling to the furthest corners of the globe with the good news of Jesus, Jim Essian encourages us that involvement in missions is for all of us, not just for a chosen few. This book helps us to discern our role in the church’s mission, whether that's praying fervently, giving generously, or going boldly.

En un mundo lleno de denominaciones, divisiones y tradiciones muertas, De la Religión a la Relación es un llamado audaz y guiado por el Espíritu a regresar al corazón del evangelio: Jesucristo. El Pastor Jose R. Perez invita a los lectores a un viaje profundamente personal y profético, lejos de los sistemas hechos por el hombre y de regreso al Salvador vivo. Criado en la iglesia pentecostal y marcado por la pérdida personal, la lucha racial y la renovación espiritual, el Pastor Perez expone cómo la Iglesia se ha desviado de su llamado original.

The church today faces great challenges, from outside and from within. Popular culture tempts Christians to compromise truth in the name of relevance and to ignore sin under the guise of tolerance. At the same time, serious doctrinal errors threaten to undermine the authority of God's word, leading to all sorts of unbiblical practices. Right Thinking in a Church Gone Astray offers responses from trusted evangelical voices on 15 timely issues.

What do we call each other? It’s a deceptively simple question, because how we refer to one another is how we understand our relationships. Not recognizing the power of our words makes it harder for us to trust and serve one another―to love one another. In More than Christians, Norman Hubbard explores how the early church used common words in uncommon ways to make sense of their relationships with God and with one another. His research and contextualization of the cultural background to the New Testament is as practical for today as it is urgent.

Pastor Andrey Shapoval shares the keys to intimacy with God and uncovers what the Holy Spirit has taught him over the years while restoring him as a son and His messenger on this earth.

Why do the traditions of the modern institutional church often feel so different from the New Testament? Why do thousands of denominations claim the same Bible yet teach contradictory doctrines? This book presents a radical, Scripture-only refutation of modern church systems by focusing on the one doctrine that changes everything: the finished, exclusive, and unchangeable High Priesthood of Jesus Christ. Using the King James Version Topical Bible Study Method, author David Michael Curtis guides the reader through 100 critical questions about Christ's priesthood . Each question is first ...

The Hybrid Congregation explores how technology has become an integral part of our daily lives and how it is impacting religious practices in unexpected ways. With the rise of online platforms, including social media and video conferencing tools, the concept of a physical church space is being redefined. The virtual world is now an extension of our physical reality, blurring the lines between what is considered "real" and what is not.

Sustainable Church is a thorough Bible-based exposition of how the ministry of every church should be organically built around all of the Spirit-gifted followers of Jesus within that local body. It critiques the shallow pragmatism and unsustainability of nonorganic churches and biblically showcases the sustainability of the organic church.

The Multiplying Church is a primer for pastors and lay leaders involved in, or wanting to learn about, the church multiplication groundswell in North America. It shows how multiplying churches should be a natural, regular function of every church to reach the 70 percent of Americans who have no...

In Holy Disunity: How What Separates Us Can Save Us, Layton E. Williams proposes that our primary calling as humans is not to create unity but rather to seek authentic relationship with God, ourselves, one another, and the world around us. And that means actively engaging those with whom we disagree. Our religious, political, social, and cultural differences can create doubt and tension, but disunity also provides surprising gifts of perspective and grace.

The premise of this work is that John has two encouraging messages, one for the troubled church of his own time and one for a troubled church in his distant future. The message is carried by the overtones of the book’s imagery, an imagery borrowed extensively from the Old Testament. Most of the features of Revelation will not be seen before the return of global persecution, because they describe that persecution and God’s response. Yet current events may seem to be catching up with my account of the Four Horsemen, which was available online ten years ago. That is why Revelation calls ...

Jesus promised, “Where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them" (Matthew 18:20). Writing in a positive, friendly, engaging style, the author encourages you to claim that promise and experience that presence, and walks you through it with practical how-to advice.

In Every Generation: A Baptist Ecclesiology The Baptist Church in Theological and Historical Context by Marvin McKenzie What is the church that Jesus built—and has it survived every generation? In this rigorous yet accessible theological work, Marvin McKenzie presents a compelling case for the perpetuity, authority, and exclusivity of the New Testament church as found in local, visible Baptist assemblies. Drawing from decades of ministry experience and historical research, In Every Generation offers a thorough defense of the biblical identity, structure, and mission of the church—while ...

¡UNA DE LAS OBRAS MÁS IMPORTANTES DE LA TEOLOGÍA! Publicado por primera vez en 1700, El Servicio Razonable del Cristiano (5 vols.) tuvo veinte ediciones holandesas sólo en el siglo XVIII.

La obra expresa lo que Dios requiere del hombre, y particularmente del cristiano, que le sirva en espíritu y en verdad, de manera inteligente, racional y en armonía y respuesta a la revelación que Dios hace de sí mismo en su Palabra. Con un sabor decididamente puritano, representa el cristianismo experiencial reformado y escolástico en su mejor momento. ...

Uncovering the Myth of Spiritual Covering is adapted from a chapter of the widely disseminated book, Charismatic Captivation - Authoritarian Abuse & Psychological Enslavement in Neo-Pentecostal Churches. That book exposes the widespread problem of authoritarian abuse that has been flourishing virtually unabated for decades since it was first infused into the very fabric, foundation, and functions of the Charismatic/Neo-Pentecostal church during the false movement known as the Discipleship/Shepherding Movement (1970-77).

This short book is adapted from a chapter of “I Am Persuaded: Christian Leadership As Taught By Jesus.” Jesus said, “Call no man on earth father, for you all have one Father who is in heaven.” Yet Paul called Timothy, Titus, and Onesimus his “sons” and sometimes used “father” language when addressing the churches. Was Paul contradicting Jesus? Instead of cherry-picking scriptures, adapting extreme views, and reviling anyone who sees differently, we need to get to the heart of the issue. “Spiritual Fathers Or Brothers?” clears up the confusion and helps us to understand ...

The review summaries the book, notes its positive features, and dialogues with what Hicks regards as its negative aspects.

What if everything you thought you knew about the early Church was only the surface of a much deeper story—one marked by blood, courage, controversy, and divine encounters? From the fiery descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost to the thunderclap of Martin Luther's 95 Theses on the Wittenberg door, Introduction to Church History pulls back the curtain on nearly 1,500 years of rich, raw, and revolutionary Christian history. But this isn’t just a textbook—it’s a journey into the soul of the global Church. For many believers, the past feels like a dusty archive—distant, irrelevant, ...
